Alkaline Water: The Benefits of Alkaline Drinking Water

We all know we should be drinking plenty of water each and every day, and although many of us fail to reach our recommended daily target, we generally understand the massively important role it plays in our everyday health and wellbeing. But why? And perhaps more importantly - if we are going to be consuming so much water, shouldn’t we make sure it is the best quality?

Water Facts

Water is widely accepted as one of the most important considerations when creating a healthy lifestyle. Water comprises between 50-70% of an adult’s body (up to 90lbs in a 130lb adult!) - and when water is taken out of our diet our survival time is 2-3 days at best so we have to make sure we are always well hydrated.

According to mayoclinic.com, at the very least dehydration can cause:

  • Excessive thirst
  • Fatigue

  • Headache

  • Dry mouth

  • Little or no urination

  • Muscle weakness

  • Dizziness

  • Lightheadedness

Just to give a further idea of the importance of water in our diets, to survive the body can stand to lose the following:

  • 50% of your glucose
  • 50% of your fat
  • 50% of your protein; but
  • only 20% of your water!

So water is important, but what about the quality of water?

Alkaline Water and the Benefits of Alkaline Drinking Water

The average suggestion of water consumption per day ranges from 2.5 litres to 4 litres - so it is imperative that we ensure that this water is of the highest quality.

There is a lot of discussion about the merits of alkaline water (particularly in the open publishing medium known as the Internet) - however, regardless of who you listen to regarding this debate there is one thing that is certain:

the process of making making water alkaline increases the purity of the water by filtering out toxins and impurities

For those who are not so sceptical about the benefits of the alkaline lifestyle, alkaline water helps to neutralise acids and remove toxins from the body - it is a great cleanser and helps to detoxify our system.

 

Not All Water is Healthy Water

bacteria and disease

What I found out is water filtration systems such as Reverse Osmosis (RO) and Distilled waters are acidic, they contain no healthy benefits or minerals for the body.  Simply drinking mineral water is much better for your body because your body needs those trace minerals in water!  The question becomes, "How much is enough or too much?" And I'll get into that later.  Ok, so what do I mean by acidic water?  If the pH is below 7.0 (neutral) it's acidic.  RO and distilled usually range from pH 3.0 to pH 6.9!

 

And a bit of science here...every water point lower or higher is a factor of 10! So if you drink water with a pH of 3.0 to 6.9, which most likely is in 95% of all bottled waters, it is between 10,000 and 10 TIMES more acidic than a glass of neutral 7.0 water.  That is HUGE! 

 

Just think about this fact.  Fish cannot live in low acidic water. They will die. What makes you think drinking acidic water, void of minerals, will help you stay healthy? Answer = YOU Won't!  It includes distilled and reverse osmosis filtered waters.  RO and distilled waters are BAD for your health over long periods of time.

 

For those who love drinking carbonated sodas...the pH levels are between pH 2.5 to 4.5! That's up to 50,000 TIMES lower than a neutral pH 7.0 glass of water. It will take 32 glasses of water to neutralize the soda or a few glasses of water with a high pH value.

 

How do you relieve acid reflux?  This can be proven. When you have acid reflux or heartburn, drink 3 glasses of distilled water or reverse osmosis water or soda. You will most likely still have acid reflux. Change it around, if you drink 3 glasses of alkaline water, your heartburn will be gone. Try it and let me know.
