ighting the symptoms of aging
A: That’s a great question, and the short answer is “Yes.” However, the subject is so broad that it’s impossible to give you a complete answer in just one issue of the Q&A Times. I began my answer in last month’s issue, and I will finish it this month. It is estimated that 75% of Americans are dehydrated enough that it causes a negative effect to their health. A side effect of that dehydration is to have an acidic inflamed body. It may be “silent” inflammation now, but it will eventually develop into pain or other symptoms. It doesn’t seem to matter that people drink lots of water; it matters more what kind of water they drink. Since most of us are dehydrated in varying degrees, we experience levels of daytime fatigue that may be directly related to our diet and our being dehydrated. A typical slump occurs around mid-afternoon, and people reach for that sugary snack or the coffee. If they only knew that by drinking two glasses of alkaline ionized water after lunch, they would feel much better. Water is so important that only a two percent reduction in your body’s natural water level can bring on mental confusion, short term memory loss, inability to focus and sluggishness in doing simple math calculations. Recent research has shown that drinking eight to 10 glasses of alkaline ionized water per day may significantly reduce pain levels, even in backs and joints, for up to 80% of sufferers. Other research has shown that if the average person drank at least five – 16 oz. glasses of alkaline ionized water daily, (plain water – nothing mixed with it), their risk of getting breast cancer could be reduced by up to 79%, colon cancer by up to 45%, and bladder cancer by up to 50% How does it work? The properties of alkaline ionized water are unique. Drinking this water provides a quick supply of available oxygen – making the water an “antioxidant.” Free radicals are rogue oxygen atoms that are missing an electron, and they cause damage to our cells, bringing about disease and premature aging. The antioxidant water neutralizes the free radicals, resulting in a body that is energized, vitalized and oxygen rich. Alkaline ionized water helps balance the body’s pH by reducing excess cellular acidity, helping the body to dissolve and excrete acidic waste more efficiently. The electrolysis process that produces the alkaline ionized water not only produces an excess of electrons, it also reduces the size of the water molecule clusters from 13 or 14 molecules (which is regular tap water) to clusters of only five to seven molecules. These smaller clusters have a lower molecular weight, which makes the alkaline ionized water more easily absorbed by the body. The smaller cluster size is also better able to deliver nutrients to all the cells, tissues and organs, and it accelerates metabolism as more and more acidic waste is eliminated from the body. Because the alkaline ionized water is more easily absorbed, taking your vitamin and mineral supplements with this water will enable them to be absorbed more completely and rapidly. Conversely, take your medications with normal tap water. That is because your body normally absorbs only about 30% of the medications you take, and recommended dosages allow for that. Taking your medications with alkaline ionized water will increase the amount absorbed, and you may get too much. A normal North American diet will produce high levels of acidic waste in the body from 97% of what is consumed. We simply do not eat enough alkaline foods, fruits and vegetables. These acids, if they are not neutralized, can cause inflammation and free radicals. They can kill healthy cells by stealing oxygen and damage them by stealing electrons. The body also tends to isolate acidic wastes by storing it in the joints, organs, blood vessels and fat cells. Eating alkaline foods and drinking alkaline water will neutralize these harmful acids. It will also remove them from the body by enabling them to pass safely through the kidneys and bowels. With alkaline ionized water, its qualities of high alkalinity, increased oxygen and lower molecular weight act together as a powerful cellular detoxifier. It helps the body maintain or restore its health and should be a part of everyone’s daily regimen. Research in Japan since the 1950’s indicates that most chronic conditions in the body are because of increased acidic waste and the impaired bodily functions and the compromised immune system that result. If you want to feel younger, more flexible, more vital and more alive, or if your goal is simply to stay that way, then the answer is clear. Drink alkaline ionized water!
