Dr. Oz on Water - alkaline

Today, after watching Dr. Oz's presentation (Don't Drink the Water ) I was compelled to write this article..

Dr. Oz, America's most trusted Doctor, addressed and challenged the audience to take responsibility for the water that flows through the tap in their homes. He talked about the enemies that lurk within our water and told us how we can obtain water reports for our specific area. He also admonished us to NEVER EVER give a child a bath filled with ordinary tap water..

This Doc. is "In the Know" Did you know that skin is your the largest organ of your body? When you take a shower you take in far more contaminants like chlorine and fluoride than you can by drinking it.

Good clean water is foundational to your health. Many people are somewhat aware of the dangers in drinking water from the tap. They need to know when it comes to tap water "Don't Drink the Water!" I see people buying bottled water in the stores all the time. I wonder if they know there are other options because

Bottled water:

• Is expensive
• Is an unreliable source of clean water (whose Spring?)
• Packaging in plastic bottles is NOT safe

I'd like to introduce you to some cutting edge technologies that will:

• Save you Money

• Make it possible to have clean pure water right from your own tap.

• Give you peace of mind

Did you know....

• Water regulates your body temperature
• Water transports nutrients and oxygen
• Water helps detoxify the kidneys and liver
• Water dissolves vitamins and minerals
• Water cushions the body from injury by lubricating joints.
• The human body is composed of 25 percent solid matter (the solute) and 75 percent water (the solvent).
• The average body contains 40 to 50 quarts of water. Your blood is 82 percent water, muscles are 75 percent water, the brain is 75 percent water and bone is 22 percent water.

Not All Water Is Created Equal.

Water in it's natural state was pure, clean, hydrating and so very good for you. Today the water that flows from our taps have many toxins, medications (flushed down the toilet and into our water supply) and high acidity.

Our municipalities add chlorine, chloramines, fluoride and all sorts of other chemicals to adjust flavor, kill bacteria and cover odors. Each of these toxic materials have some pretty nasty side effects. Then there are the increasing levels of pesticides and toxic metals leaching into the water from farming and manufacturing each year.

Years ago I was told, by a holistic nutritionist, that I should drink distilled water. I did drink it for awhile but then began doing research because I knew that the minerals were taken out of distilled water and couldn't believe it would be good for me in the long-term.

What I learned was that when red blood cells are immersed in distilled water, they slowly swell until they burst. That’s not good!

PH Balance

• Alkaline water can neutralize the acidity of the body caused by stress, modern diet and air pollution.
• A higher pH in the body reduces the need for fat and cholesterol to protect the body from damaging acids.
• Abundant Negatively charged hydroxyl ions, (OH -) are found in alkaline water. These hydroxyl ions act as natural antioxidants and neutralize harmful free radicals.
• Improves the body's absorption of essential nutrients
• Improves body function by cleaning your cells from the inside out.
• Using water with a higher pH level improves the taste of beverages and food.
• Alkaline water tastes lighter with a pleasantly sweet flavor.
• Cooking with alkaline water improves the taste and quality of foods and using acidic
  water when boiling eggs improves their quality.

Provides superior hydration and nutrition at the cellular level.

• Ionization breaks clusters of water molecules into smaller micro-clusters, reducing the size of the clusters from the 11-16 molecules in standard water to just 5-6 molecules in ionized water. Smaller clusters pass through cell walls more easily and hydrate the cells more quickly.
• Faster hydration allows the body to regulate its temperature more efficiently.
• Micro-clusters of mineral-bearing ionized water also deliver nutrients more efficiently to the cells

Detoxifies cells more efficiently than standard drinking water.

• Due to their smaller size, micro-clusters of ionized water molecules are expelled from the cells more efficiently, carrying damaging toxins out of the cells and flushing them out of the system.
• The negative charge of ionized alkaline water will attract the positive ions of acids and neutralize them within the body.

Clean, healthy water is easily absorbed by your body and hydrates and nourishes it. The best great tasting water with antioxidant properties and proper pH levels for drinking is called Alkaline water. I recommend an affordable Alkaline Water Unit. This is the most cost affective Alkaline System I know of. This is the system that we use in our home.
