Acid and Alkaline Balance
Excerpts from Dr Hidemitsu Hayashi (Director of Tokyo Water Institute) |
|
|
| |
Water from mountain lakes and streams has long been known to be the healthiest water in the world and unlike distilled water, which is dead, this water can be called "living water." |
|
|
| |
When an atom or molecule gains or loses an electron, ionization occurs. When water is ionized, the molecule splits into two parts, the hydrogen ion (H+) and the hydroxyl ion (OH-). These ions combine with other solutes in water, often minerals like calcium or potassium, to create an active chemical reaction. When water carries more hydrogen than hydroxyl ions it is said to be acidic; when hydroxyl ions predominate, then science calls water alkaline. Our blood system is always working to keep itself at that critical pH of 7.4. This process is called homeostasis. |
|
|
| |
When we drink popular soft drinks like colas, which have an acidic pH of 2.5, the bloodstream does not lower itself to that level. Rather, sugar and other elements of the drink is process by the blood into acid wastes; some are eliminated, and others are stored at various locations in the body. |
|
|
| |
What is it causes us grow old? Several theories exist today and they all seem to have one thing in common; they cannot stop, hinder, or slow down the ageing process. They certainly have not produced better health and they have not answered the question of why we age. Yet there is another theory of ageing and illness that has been around for many decades. A few doctors and nutritionists in the US and Europe, but mainly by doctors and scientists in Japan, Korea, Asia and other Pacific Rim countries voice it. Briefly, this new theory says that that ageing and many diseases result from the accumulation of acid waste products in the body. |
|
|
| |
Poor diets, either a present one or one in the past, can cause acid wastes to be stored in the body. A meat and potato diet for example, can cause the body to become more acidic. When acid wastes enter our bloodstream, the blood, in order to maintain that narrow pH range will store them somewhere else. Acid salts stored in the body, over the decades, will overburden the system. A way has to be found to rid the body of wastes, so that alkalizing the bloodstream can treat adult diseases. |
|
|
| |
Western medicine does not attempt to remove acid wastes from the physiological system; so today's modern medicine is deficient in treating adult diseases. Even if medicines cure the disease, and the acids are not removed form the body; the treatment's effectiveness will only be temporary. Bad diets, including meat and potatoes, fried foods, refined bread, soft drink colas and sugars, build up acid salts in the body. Often these deposits, by having to be stored away from the blood flow, can remain in the body for decades. Stress, both mental and physical, can create acid deposits in the body. Mental stress can make you feel depressed. While the physiological, scientific connection to stress in the body has not been completely established, there exists a school of thought in psychology, called psychosomatic, which maintains that one's mental state will influence health. Doctors in Japan, following more than forty years of research and testing, believe that daily drinking of alkaline water can lift depression. |
|
|
| |
Lets look at some of the healing benefits of drinking ionized alkaline water. |
|
|
| |
Obesity is a major health problem in America. It arises from the overeating of carbohydrates and fats. When the metabolic process is not able to burn them away, the blood must place these fatty acids somewhere. It first stores them under the skin, around the waist in men, and around the hips, thighs and breasts in women. Then it deposits wastes around organs and tissues, which then receive a smaller supply of nutrients and are thereby damaged. This second stage is more deadly. |
|
|
| |
An easy gentle way to lose weight is to wash fatty acids out of the body by drinking six to eight glasses of alkaline water a day. This practice has been employed in Japan for the last thirty years, and doctors there record numerous instances of weight loss. |
|
|
| |
Dr. Keiichi Morishita in his book, "The Hidden Truth of Cancer", states that if the blood develops a more acidic condition, then these acidic wastes have to be deposited somewhere in the body. If this unhealthy process continues year after year, these areas steadily increase in acidity, and their cells begin to die. Other cells in the affected area may survive by becoming abnormal; these are called malignant. Malignant cells do not respond to brain commands. They undergo a cellular division that is out of control. This is called cancer. Modern medicine in America treats these malignant cells as if they were bacteria or viruses. It uses chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery to treat cancer. Yet none of theses treatments will help very much, if after all the acidic environment remains. |
|
|
| |
Drinking water that has a high alkaline pH, because of its de-acidifying effect, will help in preventing cancer, and in Asia, alkaline water is regularly served to patients. |
|
|
| |
As the body consumes toxins, the kidneys become over burdened with acid wastes. Nephritis, uremia poisoning, and bladder problems are all acid related conditions, which can be treated by the consumption of alkaline water. Kidney stones begin as tiny specks and they gradually build into solid stones, composed of phosphates, urates and others. They are another form of acidic salts. Drinking plenty of alkaline water will prevent kidney stones from forming, and even after their formation, it can dissolve them. Japanese doctors have used alkaline water for years to treat the kidneys. |
|
|
| |
Alkaline water is produced using electrolysis to electrically split filtered tap water into alkaline and acid water. The machine first developed in Japan in the early 1950's, and approved for use a medical device by the health and rehabilitation ministry in 1966. The ionized minerals in tap water are important. Common alkaline minerals are sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium; the common acid minerals are chlorine, lead, sulfur and phosphorous. The water ionizer has two chambers, with positive and negative electrodes. When the process is complete, one chamber provides alkaline water with its ionized alkaline minerals. This is what we drink, the water that is so healthy for us. |
|
|
| |
Alkaline water, having a pH of between 9 and 11, will neutralize harmful stored acid wastes, and if you consume it every day, will gently remove them from your body. Yet, since the water is ionized, it will not leach out valuable minerals like calcium, magnesium, potassium or sodium. |
|
|
| |
Alkaline water experiences; a woman in her forties under high stress was diagnosed with high blood pressure and was told she had abnormally high cholesterol levels. She began consuming one and a half quarts a day of alkaline water. After a few weeks, both her cholesterol and blood pressure were lowered; and as an added benefit, her stomach began to feel much better. |
|
|
| |
A teenager with severe acne began drinking the water and after three months, the condition was cleared up. He consumed two quarts a day of alkaline water. |
|
|
| |
A man worried about the effect of the prescription drugs he was taking for overweight began consuming two quarts a day. After six months, he had thrown away his drugs, and had lost over thirty pounds. |
|
|
| |
In California, a man had been suffering from super acidity for many years, and after eating a meal would unpredictably vomit. He began consuming six glasses of the alkaline water per day. Within a week his acidity ended; he also lost fifteen pounds in three months, and discovered a dramatic rate of increase in his ability to heal small ailments, like cuts and bruises. |
|
|
| |
A woman had suffered constipation for thirty years, and began drinking the water on a regular basis, and completely rid herself of this condition. She had also lacked an appetite for years, but has now developed a healthy one. |
|
|
| |
One man, who likes to consume alcohol moderately, noticed when he began consuming the water on a regular basis that he quit suffering hangovers, and the drowsiness he regularly experienced had left him. |
|
|
| |
A female athlete in her twenties began consuming the water for a stomach condition; she felt an increase in her general energy level, and after a day of strenuous training, found that the alkaline water minimized the aches and pains she had always previously experienced. |
|
|
| |
For years, a woman had suffered ulcers, and was feeling nauseous from her medication; a regular consumption of the water allowed her to cease her medication and the ulcer to go away. |
|
|
| |
One could go on and on with these stories, and there are many more, but what we suggest you do is simply try the water yourself. |

Acidosis |
|
|
| |
Heart Disease, Arteriosclerosis, High Blood Pressure |
|
|
| |
Your blood is your body's transport system. It carries both nutrients and oxygen to the tissues of your body. It also carries waste products away from the tissues and helps maintain body temperature. To do these things, your blood must circulate continuously. Your heart is the center of the circulation and it pumps over 5 quarts of blood every minute. |
|
|
| |
Acidification of the body starts in the blood. As mentioned before, the blood performs balancing acts in order to maintain the blood pH within the safe range of 7.3 to 7.45. The blood has a buffer pool of sodium bicarbonate made to neutralize strong acid compounds coming out of the cells as waste products of metabolism. When this buffer level is too low, acidosis is developed. |
|
|
| |
Acidosis and high blood pressure |
|
|
| |
Dr. Kancho Kuninaka, one of the pioneers of the alkaline water treatment in Japan, states that virtually without exception, the patients with high blood pressure have an acidosis condition. He has many successful clinical cases where the acid free high pH alkaline water lowered blood pressure. |
|
|
| |
There are several plausible explanations for this phenomenon. Since the higher pH blood contains excess oxygen, the heart doesn't have to work as hard. Another factor may be that the viscosity of the higher pH blood is low so that the heart does not need to pump as hard. A further reason may be that the calcium ions in alkaline water may be dissolving plaque and cholesterol build-up in the artery walls, thus opening up the passage. |
|
|
| |
Doctors know that if you take several deep breaths right before the blood pressure measurement, you can get a lower reading. You have temporarily elevated the pH of the blood by breathing out more CO2 and by breathing in more O2. If you can lower your blood pressure by using this trick, your high blood pressure is caused by the first two reasons in the above paragraph and you should be able to lower your blood pressure within a few months of drinking the alkaline water. |
|
|
| |
Alkaline water therapies |
|
|
| |
The above example is the case where your blood pressure fluctuates between high and low. However, if your blood pressure is always high, chances are that your arteries are getting narrow (arteriosclerosis) and it will take a long time, possibly a year or more, for that blood pressure to come down by means of alkaline water. It takes time to dissolve plaque and cholesterol build-up, but eventually it will work. This slow process has no side effects. It lowers the blood pressure by eliminating the very causes of the high blood pressure. |
|
|
| |
Pill therapies |
|
|
| |
The blood pressure pills are designed to fool your body by chemical means in order to force the blood pressure down. That is why every blood pressure pill has side effects. Unless you are lowering the acid level in the blood, which is the real cause of the high blood pressure, everything else is going to be more harmful and you have to take the pills for the rest of your life. Remember that the blood pressure is high because your body, the marvelously engineered survival machine, is trying to compensate for some deficiency in your body. |
|
|
| |
Blood pressure and smoking |
|
|
| |
A friend of mine in Tampa, Florida was telling me about her peculiar blood pressure problem. She had to go to her doctor's office several times a week to measure her blood pressure. She was taking the blood pressure pills but wanted to cut them out, and her doctor wanted to make sure that it was all right to do so. |
|
|
| |
The peculiar part of her problem was that at the end of a hectic day at the office, she would be sure of the high pressure, but her blood pressure measured normal. But during the weekend when she had been relaxing at home, watching TV and reading books, her blood pressure measured alarmingly high, so high that the nurse had to call the doctor in. |
|
|
| |
As she was telling me this story, I made the observation that she smoked. So I told her that the fact that her blood pressure went up and down indicated to me that the oxygen level in her blood going up and down might cause her problem. Then I told her that her smoking would lower the oxygen level in her blood. |
|
|
| |
She looked at me with wide eyes and said: "You know, Sang? We are not allowed to smoke in our office!" Her definition of relaxing at home meant smoking and watching TV, etc. I told her that she didn't have a blood pressure problem but that she had a smoking problem. She said that she would have to work on that. |
|
|
| |
Blood pressure and sugar |
|
|
| |
For people with hypertension, doctors advise them not to eat too much fatty food, to cut out meat, to eliminate sugar, and to stop smoking. They should add, "Cut out soft drinks" to that list. The riddle is: What are the commonalities of all these things? The answer is that they all rob your body of oxygen. Smoking not only reduces the available oxygen from your body but the nicotine has the effect of narrowing capillary vessels. We know by now that all of the acidic foods and drinks lower your blood oxygen level but what about sugar? |
|
|
| |
Sugar grabs oxygen with the highest priority. Mr. Gregory Grosbard of Miami, FL received a U.S. patent on improving plastic strength by using sugar. Each time plastic material goes through a heat cycle it loses strength, because oxygen in the atmosphere goes into the material under heat, creating oxygen "holes". As Mr. Grosbard mixed a small amount of sugar into the plastic material during the heat cycle, the sugar grabbed the oxygen first, making the plastic stronger. |
|
|
| |
Effects of soft drinks |
|
|
| |
Soft drinks, especially the cola type, are highly acidic. A dentist friend of mine told me that he could demonstrate the tooth decay process by submerging an extracted tooth into a glass of cola and watching it decay. In chapter 2, I calculated that in order to neutralize a glass of cola with a pH of 2.5, it would take 32 glasses of alkaline water with a pH of 10. A 10 oz glass of cola took away 160x10 (16 billion times trillion) oxygen from 32 glasses of alkaline water. |
|
|
| |
Soft drinks are slow killers. It would be an interesting experiment to test the effects of alkaline water and soft drinks on laboratory mice. If we had three groups of mice evenly grouped as to their age and health condition and we gave one group of mice only cola type drinks; the second, distilled water; and the third, alkaline water, what would be the outcome? We can all guess as to which group would live the longest and which group would end up with the shortest lives. |
|
|
| |
Lately we have been alarmed by the incidence of younger people being hit by the so-called adult diseases, which used to converge mainly on the 40-plus age group. I wouldn't be surprised if the frequency of these incidents is paralleled by the success and the growth of many soft drink companies. |
|
|
| |
The acidity of some soft drinks is caused by carbon dioxide, which is not so bad because we can eventually breathe it out. But some soft drinks are highly acidic even after the carbon dioxide is all fizzled out. Perhaps the consumer advocates group should demand the acidity of the drinks to be clearly indicated on the labels of these soft drinks. |
|
|
| |
Diabetes |
|
|
| |
In a healthy body, the pancreas produces insulin and the insulin manages and helps the body to use sugar and carbohydrates properly. The adult disease diabetes is called insulin independent diabetes mellitus. The Family Medical Guide by the AMA defines it as follows: |
|
|
| |
"Insulin-independent diabetes: In this form of diabetes mellitus, which usually affects people over 40, the insulin producing cells in your pancreas function, but the output of insulin is inadequate for your body's needs. People who have this form of the disorder usually eat too much and are overweight. Their over-eating causes an excess of glucose in their blood, and the pancreas cannot produce enough insulin to cope with it. Heredity is also an important factor. In nearly a third of all cases, there is family history of the malady. Age is also a factor, because the efficiency of your pancreas decreases with age." |
|
|
| |
Alkaline water therapies |
|
|
| |
Dr. Keijiro Kuwabara of Japan has been clinically treating diabetes quite successfully by use of alkaline water. He reports that the company physician as having a case of insulin-independent diabetes mellitus diagnosed a 49-year-old insurance company employee. With only one month's use of alkaline water, the sugar count came down to virtually an undetectable level, from 300mg/dl one month previously. |
|
|
| |
The pancreas produces one of the highest pH body fluids, pancreatic juice, with its pH value of 8.8. A shortage of calcium ions in the body impairs the production and the release of the insulin hormone. This eventually leads to an acidic blood condition. A clogged blood vessel caused by excess protein buildup also impairs pancreatic function. Alkaline water, by supplying calcium in an ionized form and by helping prevent excess protein buildup, can help prevent and heal this condition. |
|
|
| |
As we age (by now we know this statement to mean "as we accumulate acidic waste products"), they say, that the efficiency of our pancreas decreases. Apparently we accumulate acidic waste products around the pancreas, men more so than women. Men initially begin to build up fatty acids around the waist. |
|
|
| |
Adult diseases and heredity |
|
|
| |
Heredity here may mean that somehow in that particular family, there is a tendency to accumulate waste products at or near the pancreas first. Until they reach 40, the amount of acid accumulation is not sufficient enough to slow down the functions of the pancreas. This means that if we prevent wastes from accumulating by means of alkaline water, that person will not get diabetes even if he reaches 70 or 80 years old |
|
|
| |
After all, he didn't have diabetes when he was 30 years old; that is, he didn't have enough of an acidic waste buildup until that time. Chronologically he may reach 40 or 50, but if he can keep the level of the wastes to that of 30 years old, he will never get diabetes. Heredity may not have to be related to chronological age. |
|
|
| |
The alkaline water treatment will not apply to diabetes from different causes such as a damaged pancreas, etc. |

ALKALINE ANTIOXIDANT WATER AND VARIOUS ADULT DISEASES |

The Growth of Cancer cells |
|
|
| |
A German biochemist, Dr. Otto Warburg discovered the 'cause' of cancer back in 1923 and he received the 1931 Nobel Prize for doing so. In his book, "The Metabolism of Tumors", Dr. Warburg demonstrated that the primary cause of cancer was the replacement of oxygen in the respiratory chemistry of normal cells by the fermentation of sugar. The growth of cancer cells is a fermentation process, which can be initiated, only in the relative absence of oxygen. |
|
|
| |
One may wonder how any cell can survive, much less grow, in the absence of oxygen. But it so happens that plant cells are like that. Oxygen is a waste product that they discard. In other words, cancer cells are plant cells that live within an animal. The National Cancer Institute verified Warburg's theories in the l950's, however; very little work has been done to determine the causes of lack of oxygen to the human body. |
|
|
| |
In the meantime, the Germans are trying to find ways of getting more oxygen to all of the healthy cells in order to prevent the initiation of the fermentation process. |
|
|
| |
The True Cause of Cancer |
|
|
| |
Herman Aihara, in his book entitled "Acid & Alkaline" states that: |
|
|
| |
"If the condition of our extra cellular fluids, especially the blood, becomes acidic, our physical condition will first manifest tiredness, proneness to catching colds, etc. When these fluids become more acidic, our condition then manifests pains and suffering such as headaches, chest pains, stomachaches, etc. According to Keiichi Morishita in his "Hidden Truth of Cancer", if the blood develops a more acidic condition, then our body inevitably deposits these excess acidic substances in some area of the body such so that the blood will be able to maintain an alkaline condition. |
|
|
| |
As this tendency continues, such areas increase in acidity and some cells die; then these dead cells themselves turn into acids. However, some other cells may adapt in that environment. In other words, instead of dying - as normal cells do in an acid environment - some cells survive by becoming abnormal cells. These abnormal cells are called malignant cells. Malignant cells do not correspond with brain function nor with our own DNA memory code. Therefore, malignant cells grown indefinitely and without order. THIS IS CANCER ." |
|
|
| |
Dr. Warburg dealt with the symptom of acid build-ups rather than the cause. Mr. Aihara was hitting the nail right on the head. For this reason, the German solution is to alleviate the symptoms, that is, to supply more oxygen, while the Japanese solution is to reduce the acidity, the very cause, by alkaline diet and/or alkaline ionic water. |
|
|
| |
ALKALINE THERAPIES AND CANCER |
|
|
| |
When you drink alkaline antioxidant water, you are drinking water with excess oxygen, not in the form of O2, but in the form of OH-, which is very stable because it is mated with positively ionized alkaline minerals. Two of these hydroxyl ions can form a water molecule (H20) and give out one oxygen atom. The alkaline mineral is used to detoxify poisonous acid compounds and when that happens the hydroxyl ion is freed to supply excess oxygen to the cells to prevent the development of cancer. It is indeed the case of killing two birds with one stone. |
|
|
| |
There are 2 kinds of oxygen. One is in a dynamic form, O2, and the other is in the stable bias form of OH- mated with positively ionized alkaline minerals. The body needs both kinds of oxygen. If you hold your breath, O2 is cut off and you die, and if you body pH goes down below 7, oH- is cut off and you would die also. When breathing stops, O2 is first used up and the body will use up OH- secondly, then death will occur. That takes about 3 minutes. Those people with high alkalinity, like babies, would live longer than 3 minutes. |
|
|
| |
When the environment for the cells in the body becomes too acidic, there isn't enough oxygen to go around for all the cells in the area. In order for some cells to survive under the circumstances, they selectively change some cells to plant cells so that they can take in CO2 and give out O2. The convenience of the moment may cause damage later on, but at least it caused the survival of life for a little longer. Remember, the human body is a marvelously engineered survival machine. |
|
|
| |
Drinking high pH alkaline antioxidant water will definitely help in preventing cancer. Since the healthy cells are alkaline and the malignant cells are acidic, drinking alkaline antioxidant water will not harm healthy cells while it may destroy malignant cells. |
|
|
| |
HEART DISEASE, ATHEROSCLEROSIS, HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE |
|
|
| |

Heredity means that in a particular family, there is a tendency to accumulate waste products at or near the pancreas first. Until they reach the age of 40, the amount of acid accumulation is not sufficient enough to slow down the functions of the pancreas. This means that if one prevents wastes from accumulating by means of consuming alkaline antioxidant water, he will not get diabetes even if he reaches the ripe age of 70 or 80 years old. |
|
|
| |
ARTHRITIS, GOUT |
|
|
| |
Many different forms of arthritis and gout are the result of acid accumulation in the joints. Heavy people add more pressure on their joints, thus speeding up wear and tear; however, a young person seems to do fine even if he is heavy. It is the accumulated acid that damages cartilage and irritates the joints. Unfortunately, the joints are where the blood cannot carry out wastes easily. |
|
|
| |
Gout is the accumulation of uric acid in the joints. According to Webster, gout is a disease resulting from a disturbance of metabolism, characterized by an excess of uric acid in the blood and deposits of uric acid salts in the tissues around the joints, especially of the feet and hands: it causes swelling and severe pain, especially in the big toe. |
|
|
| |
In today's medicine, there is no effective treatment for these types of degenerative diseases. Because it is painful, one instinctively takes painkillers; however, aspirin types are acidic and they can further irritate the joints. The sooner we accept the fact that these diseases are the result of too much acidic waste, the sooner we will find the cure for these problems. |
|
|
| |
KIDNEY DISEASE |
|
|
| |
Kidney stones are formed in the kidneys, originally starting as tiny specks of solid substance. As more material clings to the first speck, it gradually builds into a solid object. The substances are made out of phosphates, urates, etc. They are salts of phosphoric acid and uric acid generally combined with calcium and/or magnesium. They are formed in the kidneys because the environment is too acidic. These salts are acidic salts. |
|
|
| |
Although calcium and magnesium are in the salts, they are there to soften the poisonous effects of uric acid and phosphoric acid. Some people mistakenly believe that kidney stones are formed because there is too much calcium. That is not true. The best proof is that that calcium compound will dissolve in acidic urine while kidney stones will not. |
|
|
| |
If you add calcium into the bladder and lower the acidity of the urine, kidney stones will dissolve. Drinking plenty of alkaline ionic water will prevent the kidney stones from forming to begin with, and even after the formation, it can dissolve them. Because urine is acidic and so are most of the other waste products, any extra calcium that your body doesn't need will be dissolved and discarded by the urine. In the process, it will help dissolve kidney stones, if any. There is no need to worry about too much calcium consumption. |
|
|
| |
CHRONIC DIARRHOEA AND CONSTIPATION |
|
|
| |
It sounds like a contradicting statement, but both of these seemingly opposite phenomenon are the result of too many acids. If too much acid affects the pancreatic juice causing it to be less alkaline and the foods coming into the intestine become too acidic, this will cause diarrhea. Alkaline antioxidant water will help in this case. |
|
|
| |
Constipation is caused by acid accumulation somewhere near the colon. The alkaline antioxidant water helps the secretion of fluids into the colon by eliminating acid build-up. |
|

ASTHMA, HAY FEVER, ALLERGIES |
|
|
| |
Allergies, in general, are the result of a misguided immune system building up antibodies against normally harmless substances. Asthma is a class of allergies where the allergic reaction results in partial obstruction of the bronchi and bronchiole by contraction of the muscles in the bronchial walls. |
|
|
| |
They are triggered by pollen, dust, hairs on cats or dogs, or even by moods. Doctors don't know why these things happen to some people. Japanese doctors blame it on the immune disorder caused by acidosis. |
|
|
| |
HYPERACIDITY, INDIGESTION, GAS , NAUSEA |
|
|
| |
All of these symptoms are again caused by too much acid. Suppression of acid by means of alkaline antioxidant water will help to alleviate and prevent these acid-related intestinal and stomach disorders including ulcers. |
|
|
| |
OSTEOPOROSIS |
|
|
| |
The skeletal structure of the body is a "calcium bank". When the body's condition becomes too acidic, it frequently makes compensating withdrawals of calcium from the bones, leaving them brittle and subject to breakage. A bone is made out of proper combinations of calcium and phosphorus. When just the calcium is removed, the remaining bone becomes highly phosphorus and it becomes weak. |
|
|
| |
The postures of many old people change and they seem to get shorter as they age. These are the results of losing calcium from the skeletal structure. Prolonged usage of alkaline antioxidant water can help prevent this disaster of the modern diet. Ionized calcium can help to repair the damages. |
|
|
| |
MORNING SICKNESS |
|
|
| |
When a woman gets pregnant, the fetus takes priority in getting all the necessary alkaline ionic minerals, since a baby is born with the highest alkalinity. This means that while she is sleeping, she loses a lot of alkaline ionic minerals and her blood becomes acidic rather suddenly. This phenomenon is known as morning sickness. |
|
|
| |
POOR EYE SIGHT/ EYE DISEASES |
|
|
| |
We generally do not consider the change in our vision as we age to by any kind of disease. We consider that to be a sign of aging and accept it as a fact of life. However, how or why do these things happen? Undoubtedly, the process of acidification does something. |
|
|
| |
As we accumulate phosphates and urates etc. in our cells, the cells lose more oxygen. This causes more unburned sugar in the cell that will bond protein molecules. The end result is that the cells and tissues get stiff, inflexible, hard, etc. |
|
|
| |
If we do not allow the acids to accumulate in our cells, these things would not have to happen. Then, can we reverse it? The answer is YES! Drinking more alkaline antioxidant water could do the wonder. |

MICROWATER ( ALKALINE ANTIOXIDANT WATER ) |
|
|
| |
This is a new water filtration system with potential therapeutic benefits, originally developed in Japan. Water Ionizer uses a technology that filters and enhances the quality of water by making the size of water molecules smaller. It is already a US$700 million a year industry in Japan and is now being introduced in the U.S. The machine is hooked up to a faucet, uses a carbon activated filter to remove impurities from the water; then it injects a small electrical charge into the water that separates the water into 2 kinds: - |
|
|
| |
- Flowing out of one tube is an acidic water for topical, external uses
- And out of another tube comes alkaline water for drinking.
|
|
|
| |
The applications of the acidic portion are numerous and quite surprising. According to the research, and based on early reports from African and South American users, acidic water acts as a "superoxidant" to disinfect and sterilize surfaces, skin, wounds, even surgical instruments. It can kill bacteria and viruses; it can promote the healing of acne, eczema, wounds, sore throats and blister; and it can improve skin quality. When used on foods, it can retard spoilage or act as a bacterial cleanser for meats; it can be used by dentists to sterilize the mouth during dental procedures; and you can use it as a mouthwash when you brush your teeth. |
|
|
| |
Regarding the Alkaline antioxidant water, here the smaller size of the water molecules shows its advantage. According to Dr. Hidemitsu Hayashi, M.D., Alkaline antioxidant water can act as "powerful antioxidant" in the body, destroying harmful free radicals; just as do anti-oxidants such as Vitamin A, C & E. Dr. Hayashi reports that he and his colleagues have seen improvements in diabetes, constipation, ulcers, blood pressure, allergies, circulation, migraines, obesity, osteoporosis, and menstrual irregularities. Not surprisingly, the use of Alkaline antioxidant water as a preventive medicine technology is reportedly expanding in Japan clinics and hospitals. |
|
|
| |
Once ionized water gets absorbed by the body's cells, says Dr. Hayashi, it helps to dissolve acidic waste that have accumulated there over many years and reduces the chronic dehydration common in many people. In effect, thanks to the smaller molecular size, more water is absorbed by the body and more water actually penetrates into all the cells and tissues. When the body has more water to work with (and in this case, a more refined form of it), it is better ever to deliver nutrients to all the cells, tissues and organs. |
|
|
| |
"We are advancing the theory that the most effective and economical source of an antioxidant is ordinary water after it is filtered and treated with a Water Ionizer" says Dr .
Hayashi. |

Cause of CANCER? |
|
|
| |
Contagious Diseases and Adult Diseases |
|
|
| |
The Japanese classify human diseases into two categories: contagious diseases and adult diseases. Contagious diseases are caused by viruses and bacteria, and with the exception of AIDS, modern medical science is very much advanced in taking care of them. In a few years, they will find the cure for AIDS as well, I am sure. |
|
|
| |
Adult diseases are non-contagious diseases that we develop, just because we get old. Examples of adult diseases are cancer; heart disease, arteriosclerosis, high blood pressure; diabetes; arthritis, gout; kidney disease; chronic diarrhea and constipation; hemorrhoids; asthma, hay fever, allergies; headaches, neuralgia; psoriasis, hives, eczema, other skin disorders; hyperacidity, indigestion, gas, nausea, etc.; fever; obesity; tooth and gum diseases; osteoporosis, leg cramps; hangovers; morning sickness. |
|
|
| |
Common causes of adult diseases |
|
|
| |
The Japanese claim that the underlying causes of these adult diseases are the accumulation of acids in our body, poor blood circulation and poor cell activity. |
|
|
| |
Ever since the success of penicillin against the infections caused by invisible bacteria and viruses, medical researchers have been looking for medicine to cure every kind of disease including adult diseases. None of these drugs reduce the acidity of the body. As a matter of a fact, most drugs are acidic. |
|
|
| |
Since too much acid in our body, according to the Japanese, causes these adult diseases unless the treatment actually removes acids from the body, the 'cure' at best will be only temporary. And if the medicine were successful in removing acid from the affected area, the acid would go to some other place in the body to create side effects there, unless the treatment involves the disposal of acids from our body. For this reason, today's medical 'science' is rather poor when it comes to the cure of adult diseases. |

The Growth of cancer cells |
|
|
| |
A German biochemist, Dr. Otto Warburg discovered the 'cause' of cancer back in 1923 and he received the 1931 Nobel Prize for doing so. In his book, "The Metabolism of Tumors", Dr. Warburg demonstrated that the primary cause of cancer was the replacement of oxygen in the respiratory chemistry of normal cells by the fermentation of sugar . The growth of cancer cells is a fermentation process that can be initiated only in the relative absence of oxygen. |
|
|
| |
One may wonder how any cell can survive, much less grow, in the absence of oxygen. But it so happens that plant cells are like that. Oxygen is a waste product that they discard. In other words, cancer cells are plant cells that live within an animal. I understand that the National Cancer Institute verified Wartburg's theories in the 1950's; however, very little work has been done to determine the causes of a lack of oxygen to the human body. |
|
|
| |
Among American doctors, Dr. Sheldon Saul Hendler is perhaps one of the very few who is advocating oxygen deficiency as the causes of many illnesses. In his book, entitled "The Oxygen Breakthrough, 30Days to an Illness-Free Life", Dr. Hendler teaches breathing exercises and oxygen rich diets to overcome the oxygen deficiency problems. |
|
|
| |
Ever since Wartburg's discovery, researchers have been attempting to stop the fermentation process through drugs, radiation and surgery, which, in some cases, have been temporarily successful. In the mean time, the Germans are trying to find ways of getting more oxygen to all of the healthy cells in order to prevent the initiation of the fermentation process. |
|
|
| |
Oxygen therapies |
|
|
| |
There are devices and methods available for the purpose of supplying more oxygen to the cells. "O2xygen Therapies" by Ed McCabe describes a hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and ozone (O3) treatments. Drinking a diluted hydrogen peroxide solution or injecting ozone intravenously or rectally will place extra oxygen in the blood through a path other than the lungs. |
|
|
| |
Recently we are learning that doctors in Europe have long been making use of the body's 'third lung', the colon, during surgery due to its ability to absorb up to 70% of the oxygen introduced to it. |
|
|
| |
Although I heard a doctor claim to have destroyed 80% of a breast tumor by directly injecting ozone into the tumor, I question the validity of this kind of oxygen treatment unless the patient had a respiratory problem and was not able to breath in oxygen through the lungs. Oxygen infused in this manner eventually dissipates and it does not convert the acidic environment to an alkaline one. |
|
|
| |
The true cause of cancer |
|
|
| |
Herman Aihara, in his book entitled "Acid & Alkaline" states that:
"If the condition of our extra cellular fluids, especially the blood, becomes acidic, our physical condition will first manifest tiredness, proneness to catching colds, etc. When these fluids become more acidic, our condition then manifests pains and suffering such as headaches, chest pains, stomach aches, etc. According to Keiichi Morishita in his Hidden Truth of Cancer, if the blood develops a more acidic condition, then our body inevitably deposits these excess acidic substances in some area of the body such so that the blood will be able to maintain an alkaline condition. |
|
|
| |
As this tendency continues, such areas increase in acidity and some cells die; then these dead cells themselves turn into acids. However, some other cells may adapt in that environment. In other words, instead of dying - as normal cells do in an acid environment - some cells survive by becoming abnormal cells. These abnormal cells are called malignant cells. Malignant cells do not correspond with brain function nor with our own DNA memory code. Therefore, malignant cells grow indefinitely and without order. This is cancer." |
|
|
| |
In chapter 2, I showed the relationship between alkalinity and excess oxygen in water. Mr. Aihara does not mention anything about the lack of oxygen but rather talks about the acidification of extra cellular fluids, which causes cancer. Dr. Warburg states that the primary cause of cancer is the lack of oxygen in a cell, like a plant cell. He didn't know what caused the lack of oxygen. |
|
|
| |
I think Dr. Warburg was dealing with the symptom of acid build-ups rather than the cause. Mr. Aihara was hitting the nail right on the head. For this reason, the German solution is to alleviate the symptoms, that is, to supply more oxygen, while the Japanese solution is to reduce the acidity, the very cause, by alkaline diet and/or alkaline water. |
|
|
| |
Alkaline therapies |
|
|
| |
When you drink alkaline water, you are drinking water with excess oxygen, not in the form of O2, but in the form of OH-, which is very stable because it is mated with positively ionized alkaline minerals. Two of these hydroxyl ions can form a water molecule (H2O) and give out one oxygen atom. The alkaline mineral is used to detoxify poisonous acid compounds and when that happens the hydroxyl ion is freed to supply excess oxygen to the cells to prevent the development of cancer. It is indeed the case of killing two birds with one stone. |
|
|
| |
We are talking about two kinds of oxygen. One is in a dynamic form, O2, and the other is in the stable bias form of OH- mated with positively ionized alkaline minerals. The body needs both kinds of oxygen. If you hold your breath, O2 is cut off and you die, and if your body pH goes down below 7, OH- is cut off and you would die also. When breathing stops, O2 is first used up and the body will use up OH- secondly, then death will occur. That takes about three minutes. Those people with high alkalinity, like babies, would live longer than 3 minutes. |
|
|
| |
Reflecting back on the research works done by the two scientists, what is happening in our body may be as follows. When the environment for the cells becomes too acidic, there isn't enough oxygen to go around for all the cells in the area. In order for some cells to survive under the circumstances, they selectively change some cells to plant cells so that they can take in CO2 and give out O2. The convenience of the moment may cause damage later on, but at least it caused the survival of life for a little longer. |
|
|
| |
Remember, the human body is a marvelously engineered survival machine. |
|
|
| |
Conventional medical therapies |
|
|
| |
Today's medical industry treats malignant cells as if they were bacteria or viruses. They try to destroy them at any cost and usually the cost is the immune system of the patient. Since malignant cells are derived from healthy cells, trying to destroy one will affect the other. Chemotherapy or radiation treatments may be able to destroy 'all' of the malignant cells, but by that time the healthy cells are damaged to the point that they cannot destroy simple everyday bacteria and that person can lose his life. |
|
|
| |
Surgery for a malignant tumor is perhaps more selective. However, even after 'successful' surgery where 'all' of the tumors were removed, they can recur because the acidic environment has not been changed to an alkaline one. Radiation treatment after the surgery is another mistake. It will destroy some healthy cells and when those cells die, they become acidic wastes. A shot of sodium bicarbonate may be much better than radiation treatment, provided that a proper ratio of sodium and potassium is maintained. |
|
|
| |
It is discouraging to see that cancer research is divided into so many specialties such as cancer of the liver, cervical cancer, cancer of the kidneys, cancer of the pancreas, etc. The cause of all cancer is a lack of oxygen caused by acidification. But when so many doctors are specializing cancer research in such narrow fields, they will never find the true overall picture. They will be forever lost in a maze. |
|
|
| |
Best cancer prevention means |
|
|
| |
Drinking high pH alkaline water will definitely help in preventing cancer. Research should be done by the National Cancer Institute to see how alkaline water may help in curing early stages of cancer, depending upon how far the cancer has progressed. I am sure that there is a point of no return. However, since the healthy cells are alkaline and the malignant cells are acidic, drinking alkaline water will not harm healthy cells while it may destroy malignant cells. It is worth trying. |

EARLY DEATH COMES WITH DRINKING OF DISTILLED WATER (
By, ZOLTAN P. RONA MD. MSc ) |
|
|
| |
During nearly 19 years of clinical practice I have had the opportunity to observe the health effects of drinking different types of water. Most of you would agree that drinking unfiltered tap water could be hazardous to your health because of things like parasites, chlorine, fluoride and dioxins. Many health fanatics, however, are often surprised to hear me say that drinking distilled water on a regular, daily basis is potentially dangerous. Paavo Airola wrote about the dangers of distilled water in the 1970's when it first became a fad with the health food crowd. |
|
|
| |
Distillation is the process in which water is boiled, evaporated and the vapor condensed. Distilled water is free of dissolved minerals and, because of this, has the special property of being able to actively absorb toxic substances from the body and eliminate them. Studies validate the benefits of drinking distilled water when one is seeking to cleanse or detoxify the system for short periods of time (a few weeks at a time). Fasting using distilled water can be dangerous because of the rapid loss of electrolytes (sodium, potassium chloride) and trace minerals like magnesium, deficiencies of which can cause heart beat irregularities and high blood pressure. Cooking foods in distilled water pulls the minerals out of them and lower their nutrient value. |
|
|
| |
Distilled water is an active absorber and when it comes into contact with air, it absorbs carbon dioxide, making it acidic. The more distilled water a person drinks, the higher the body acidity becomes. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency , “Distilled” water, being essentially mineral-free, is very aggressive, in that it tends to dissolve substances with which it is in contact. Notably, carbon dioxide from the air is rapidly absorbed, making the water acidic and even more aggressive. Many metals are absorbed by distilled water. |
|
|
| |
The most toxic commercial beverages that people consume (i.e. cola beverages and other soft drinks) are made from distilled water. Studies have consistently shown that heavy consumers of soft drinks (with or without sugar) spill huge amounts of calcium, magnesium and other trace minerals into the urine. The more minerals loss, the greater the risk for osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, hypothyroidism, coronary artery disease, high blood pressure and a long list of degenerative diseases generally associated with premature aging . |
|
|
| |
A growing number of health care practitioners and scientists from around the world have been advocating the theory that aging and disease is the direct result of the accumulation of acid waste products in the body . There is a great deal of scientific documentation that supports such a theory. A poor diet may be partially to blame for the waste accumulation. Meats, sugar, white flour products, fried foods, soft drinks, processed foods, alcohol, diary products and other junk foods cause the body to become more acidic. Stress, whether mental or physical can lead to acid deposits in the body. |
|
|
| |
There is a correlation between the consumption of soft water (distilled water is extremely soft) and the incidence of cardiovascular disease . Cells, tissues and organs do not like to be dipped in acid and will do anything to buffer this acidity including the removal of minerals from the skeleton and the manufacture of bicarbonate in the blood. The longer one drinks distilled water, the more likely the development of mineral deficiencies and an acid state. I have done well over 3000 mineral evaluations using a combination of blood, urine and hair tests in my practice. Almost without exception, people who consume distilled water exclusively develop multiple mineral deficiencies. Those who supplement their distilled water intake with trace minerals are not as deficient but still not as adequately nourished in minerals as their non-distilled water drinking counterparts even after several years of mineral supplementation. |
|
|
| |
The ideal water for the human body should be slightly alkaline and this requires the presence of minerals like calcium and magnesium . Distilled water tends to be acidic and can only be recommended as a way of drawing poisons out of the body. Once this is accomplished, the continued drinking of distilled water is a bad idea |
|
|
| |
Water filtered through reverse osmosis tends to be neutral and is acceptable for regular use provided minerals are supplemented . Water filtered through a solid charcoal filter is slightly alkaline. Ozonation of this charcoal filtered water is ideal for daily drinking. Longevity is associated with regular consumption of hard water (high in minerals). Disease and early death is more likely to be seen with the long term drinking of distilled water . Avoid it except in special circumstances . |

THE CONCEPT OF PREHEPATIC MEDICINES |
|
|
| |
Since the introduction of alkaline antioxidant water in our clinic in 1985, we have had the following interesting clinical experiences in the use of this type of water. By the use of alkaline antioxidant water for drinking and the preparation of meals for our in-patients, we have noticed: - |
|
|
| |
- Declines in blood sugar levels in diabetic patients.
- Improvements in peripheral circulation in diabetic gangrene.
- Declines in uric acid levels in patients with gout.
- Improvements in liver function exams in hepatic disorders.
- Improvements in gastro duodenal ulcer and prevention of their recurrences.
- Improvements in hypertension and hypotension.
- Improvements in allergic disorders such as asthma, urticaria, rhinites and atopic dermatitis.
- Improvements in persistent diarrhea, which occurred after gastrectomy.
- Quicker improvements in post operative bower paralysis.
- Improvements in serum bilirubin levels in newborn babies.
|
|
|
| |
Being confirming clinical improvements, we have always observed changes of stools of the patients, with the colors of their feaces changing from black-brown colors to a brighter yellow-brown one, and the odor of their feaces becoming almost negligible. |
|
|
| |
The number of patients complaining of constipation also decreased markedly. The change of stool findings strongly suggests that alkaline ionic water intake can decrease the production of putrefied or pathogenic metabolites. |

Medical & Health Experts' Comments |
|
|
| |
Let's hear what the Medical Experts and Health Gurus say... |
|
|
| |
From the book "Electrolyzed Water is Good Water" by Professor Li Fung-Chow
Professor Li Fung-Chow of Taipei University injected freshly produced Alkaline Antioxidant Water into patients with various diseases, and found rapid healing of these diseases. His studies confirmed an average success of 75% up to 90% effectiveness in removing disease-causing free radicals. |
|
|
| |
From the book "Alkalize Or Die" by Dr. Theodore A. Baroody, Jr.
"Alkalize Or Die". This powerful title carries an important message that can benefit everyone -- a message destined to revolutionize health care of the future with one simple principle -- ALKALIZE YOURSELF! |
|
|
| |
The world is facing the largest health crisis in recorded history. Dr. Baroody's comprehensive research and clinical findings indicate that illness and disease are directly linked to overacidity in the system. The polluted air we breathe, the chemicalized food and water we ingest are just part of the problem. Stress on all levels -- physical, emotional, mental and even spiritual cause the body to overproduce acid wastes, upsetting our delicate alkaline/acid balance. |
|
|
| |
By understanding your alkaline/acid situation, you can determine a course of correction, and achieve a high level of vitality and strength. |
|
|
| |
From Dr. Theodore A Baroody: -
"It is definitely a health benefit to anyone who would use it. I predict that the use of electronically restructured Alkaline Antioxidant Water will change healthcare on a worldwide basis... |
|
|
| |
Through a very detailed system of testing and analysis covering 170 areas, called Bio kinetics, I have seen the following areas strengthened and stabilized on my clients by restructured Alkaline Antioxidant Water: - |
|
|
| |
* Urethra |
* Kidney Gravel |
* Lymph Vessels |
* Kidney |
* Colon |
* Acid/Alkaline Balance |
* Stomach |
* Pancreas... |
|

Comments & Lecture Notes by Dr. Mona Harrison, MD Director, International Water Council |
|
|
| |
Cancer tumors cannot live in alkaline water. All cancer patients should be on alkaline antioxidant water, and you and I should be drinking alkalized antioxidant water so our bodies won't provide an environment for cancer tumors to live. |
|
|
| |
Alkaline antioxidant water is fantastic for insomnia and colic |
|
|
| |
The brain is 90% water and when it can't maintain that percentage it will pull water from all other parts of the body. |
|
|
| |
Salt, caffeine, nicotine, valium, alcohol and sugar put your body out of balance. If we don't keep our blood pH at 7.3 or above, death will occur if the blood pH goes below 7. |
|
|
| |
The hydrogen ion is positively charged.... (by a water ionizer).... changes the hydrogen ion into a negative charge. The liver loves negative hydrogen ions. That is why kidney and liver problems can be helped with alkaline antioxidant water. |
|
|
| |
Urine that has a strong odor indicates an unhealthy body. If the body is balanced there is no ammonia and protein in the urine. An over acid body causes kidney stones and gall stones. |
|
|
| |
Cysts are the beginning of tumors, which lead to cancer because minerals are deficient from that part of the body. Cancer is a long period of mineral deficiency caused by an over acid condition of the body. |
|
|
| |
The kidney, heart, lungs, brain, intestines, mucous and skin, are (electrolytic) membranes and need electrolyzed water. |
|
|
| |
Alkaline Antioxidant Water is great for Attention Deficit Disorder as this condition is (caused by) too much rhodium and iridium in the brain. AIW calms these types of children. |
|
|
| |
AAW allows greater penetration than any water and thus wrinkles reduce because the skin is getting the water in needs. |
|
|
| |
When AAW was used with Alzheimer's patients, just by drinking a gallon a day, their senility problem subsided. |
|
|
| |
AAW is the frequency of the pineal gland and thus affects all other glands below the pineal gland. That is why the water can lower blood pressure and blood sugar, shrink an enlarged prostrate, stimulate sex drive, improve vision, improve MS and Parkinson's Disease, just to name a few. |
|
|
| |
Reversed Osmosis water units remove too many minerals from the water that our body needs and is too acid for the body to help the over acid condition. |
|
|
| |
Distilled water is neutral, dead water, and has no minerals or charge. |
|
|
| |
Alkaline antioxidant water electrolysis converts the inorganic minerals present in the water to organic minerals, just like plant juice. |
|
|
| |
Alkaline antioxidant water ties up free radicals from attacking healthy cells. |
|
|
| |
Viruses can't stand the frequency of Alkaline antioxidant water. AAW wipes out candida yeast and is effective against the E-boli virus found in water. |
|
|
| |
Also, we are aging too fast because we are acidic and dehydrated! |
|
|
| |
Alkaline Antioxidant Water is the most powerful liquid antioxidant that can rebuild the immune system and is revolutionizing the health industry. Most of our health problems today are caused by an over-acid condition of the body. |
|
|
| |
From Dr. Hidemitsu Hayashi, M.D., One of Japan's foremost Alkaline Antioxidant Water Researchers |
|
|
| |
Alkaline Antioxidant Water acts as a powerful antioxidant in the body, destroying harmful free radicals, in the same manner as Vitamins A, C and E, which are also antioxidants. |
|
|
| |
Dr. Hayashi reports that he and his colleagues have seen improvements in patients with Diabetes, Constipation, Ulcers, Blood Pressure, Allergies, Circulation, Migraines, Obesity, Osteoporosis and Menstrual Irregularities. Not surprisingly, the use of Alkaline Antioxidant Water as a Preventive Medicine technology is reportedly expanding in Japan clinics and hospitals. |
|
|
| |
Once Alkaline Antioxidant Water gets absorbed by the body's cells, says Dr. Hayashi, it helps to dissolve acidic wastes that have been accumulated there over many years and reduces the chronic dehydration common in many people. In effect, thanks to the smaller molecular size, more water is absorbed by the body and more water actually penetrates into all the cells and tissues. When the body has more water to work with (and in this case, a more refined form of it), it is better ever to deliver nutrients to all the cells, tissues and organs. |
|
|
| |
Alkaline Antioxidant Water is oxygen-rich and delivers oxygen ions and essential minerals such as calcium, potassium, magnesium and sodium ions to the cells. |
|
|
| |
Regular drinking of AAW improves internal functioning of organs through the gradual elimination of acidic residues that have been accumulated in the body. |
|
|
| |
Dr. Kancho Kuninaka, One of Japan 's Alkaline Antioxidant Water Treatment Pioneers |
|
|
| |
Dr. Kuninaka stated that virtually without exception, patients with high blood pressure have an acidosis condition. He has had many successful clinical cases where the acid free high pH Alkaline water lowered blood pressure. |
|
|
| |
Dr. Keijiro Kuwabara |
|
|
| |
Dr. Kuwabara has been treating Diabetes patients quite successfully with the use of Alkaline Antioxidant Water. He reported that a 49-year-old insurance company employee, diagnosed with insulin-dependent diabetes, started drinking Alkaline Antioxidant Water and, after one month, his sugar count went down to a healthier level. |
|
|
| |
Dr. Kyuwan Choi, Professor of Internal Medicine, Seoul University |
|
|
| |
Dr. Choi conducted a clinical experiment involving 15 patients with chronic constipation problems. He found that after a week of drinking 1.5 liters of Alkaline Antioxidant Water a day, his patients showed an average of greater than 50 percent reduction in the time of passage of their stools. |

"Drinking Alkaline Antioxidant Water is a simple secret to balancing the harmful effects of body acids and a natural step to vibrant health!" |
|
|
| |
"Dead water may be purified water that has been drained of its mineral-electrolyte content and thus its electrical energy and life force. In contrast, and Alkaline Antioxidant Water with the right balance of minerals and electrolytes has an uplifting force to it that truly quenches the thirst like no other beverages." |

Reverse Aging [excerpts]
(By Sang Whang ) |
|
|
| |
Mr. Sang Whang is a successful inventor, scientist, and engineer. Mr. Whang has discovered a new theory of aging and reverse aging. He explains the health and aging processes in layman terms in his book, Reverse Aging. |
|
|
| |
Extracted from the Book "REVERSE AGING" |
|
|
| |
In order to learn how to get younger, we must understand the process of aging. |
|
|
| |
Handling natural health improvement devices developed in Japan a few years, I have witnessed as well as personally experienced many mysterious phenomenon n the reverse aging effect. |
|
|
| |
Being a scientist, engineer, and inventor, I have tried to understand and explain the phenomenon scientifically, applying the scientific principles of those non-drug, natural health improvement devices. During the course of the study, I came to a realization of what the human aging process is about. The great news is that, with this new theory, the reverse aging process can be explained, and ANYBODY CAN GET YOUNGER IF HE OR SHE SO DESIRES . |
|
|
| |
THE AGING PROCESS
We get old because we are not disposing of all the internally generated wastes and toxins, and accumulate the leftovers within our body. |
|
|
| |
For our body to function and to maintain body temperature, we burn nutrients within our cells. The main ingredients of all foods, expensive or inexpensive, gourmet or junk, vegetable or meat, alkaline or acid, are carbohydrates, proteins or fats. And they are nothing but the combinations of four elements: carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen. |
|
|
| |
After these nutrients are burnt (oxidized) in the cells, they all turn into organic acids: carbonic acids, uric acids, lactic acids, fatty acids, ammonia, etc. Fats are acidic even before oxidation. The Chinese word for oxygen is written with two characters, "sahn-so". They literally mean "acid root". |
|
|
| |
These acidic wastes and toxins are disposed out of the body in liquid form, as urine or perspiration, after first being dissolved into the blood. Every element within our body was place there by the blood and can come out of there by first being dissolved into the blood and then being carried out. If any one loses ten pounds by any dietary means, it can be said that most of that ten pounds came out through the urine. |
|
|
| |
Unfortunately, due to our life styles and environments (i.e. too much ingestion, overwork, over indulgence, not enough rest, staying up late, not enough exercise, inadequate water consumption, smoking, pollution, etc.) the body cannot get rid of all the acidic waste products that it generates within. We accumulate these left over waste products somewhere within our body. This is the process of getting old. |
|
|
| |
To make matters worse, mixed with these organic acids are inorganic acid minerals such as chlorine, phosphor, and sulfur that come in with most of our acidic foods: meats, grains and root crops. We don't eat enough of alkaline foods such as fruits and vegetables that contain inorganic alkaline minerals: calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, etc. |
|
|
| |
Although the amounts of inorganic minerals are small compared with the organic acid wastes that the body produces, they contribute more towards the acid side. However, one important thing to note is that even if one does not eat any acidic food at all, as long as carbohydrates and proteins are consumed, the body produces much more acidic wastes than the inorganic alkaline minerals can counteract. |
|
|
| |
We are born with high alkaline blood pH of 7.44. As we get older, the blood pH drops down to 7.35 or below. The blood pH referred to here is the artery blood pH. The difference of 0.09 in pH value seems very small but since pH is logarithmic, the amount of hydroxyl ion (OH-) in 7.44 pH is 1.23 times that of 7.35 pH, because 10 = 1.2303. |
|
|
| |
The hydroxyl ion is an oxygen donor while the hydrogen ion (H+) is an oxygen taker. In other words, young people carry 23% more of the oxygen donors in their blood than older people. No wonder they are more energetic. |
|
|
| |
Uric acid is nearly insoluble in water, alcohol, and ether, but soluble in solutions of alkaline salts. In other words, it becomes soluble in alkaline water. Arthritis and gout are caused by uric acid deposited between the joints, non-dissolved due to the low alkalinity of an older person's blood. Drinking acid free alkaline ionic water will gradually elevate one's blood pH and the gout will disappear naturally. (More about this acid free alkaline ionic water later) |
|
|
| |
As we live with poor waste disposal systems for a long period o time, some parts of our body build up more acids than others, and they can clog up capillary vessels around those acidic areas. This causes some body organs to function in a sluggish manner. We feel tired and run down sometimes for no reason whatsoever, and adult diseases such as high blood pressure, arthritis, diabetes, asthma, allergies, etc. start to set in WE SIMPLY ACCEPT THESE PHENOMENA AS "GETTING OLD." |
|
|
| |
In some extreme cases, the build up of acidic elements is so great that it starts to destroy healthy cells around them. Healthy cells must maintain a slightly alkaline pH level. Some cells change their formula in order to survive in an acidic environment. If they are successful, this is the beginning of cancer. Cancer cells are acidic while healthy cells are alkaline. Even if the cancerous tumors are completely removed surgically, as long as he acidic conditions in the area remain, the chances are that new tumors will develop around the same area. |
|
|
| |
Exactly where the left over waste products are accumulated may vary according to every individual. However, the parts of the body where wastes accumulate first may determine what kind of adult disease that individual may develop first. Within one family, the storage places may be similar. This may explain the hereditary effects of certain adult diseases. |
|
|
| |
THE REVERSE AGING PROCESS
Because the accumulation of waste products inside the body is the aging process, helping the body to get rid of the OLD waste products is the reverse aging process. |
|
|
| |
This reverse aging process takes 2 steps. The 1st step is to develop a good disposal system and the 2nd is to pull out the old wastes from their hiding places. |
|
|
| |
Development of A Good Disposal System |
|
|
| |
Since, as mentioned before, the waste disposal is done in liquid form by urine and perspiration, it is imperative that we drink plenty of water. When one is going through any diet program, doctors tell him to drink 8 glasses of water a day. They know the disposal is through urine, but they don't tell you what kind of water to drink. |
|
|
| |
Since all waste products are acidic, the best kind of water is acid free alkaline ionic water. Drinking 4 glasses of this alkaline ionic water is much more effective than 8 glasses of regular, bottled water or filtered tap water. There are devices called water ionizers that split alkaline minerals and acid minerals in regular tap water by electrical means. |
|
|
| |
A quality water ionizer takes in regular tap water, which has both acid and alkaline minerals in it and has a typical pH value 7. They system then releases water with a pH value of 9 or higher with all the alkaline minerals from the original tap water. At the same time, it releases acidic water with a pH value of 5 or lower with all the acid minerals in the original tap water. |
|
|
| |
Since this alkaline ionic water has twice as many alkaline minerals as the original water but NO ACID MINERALS. It is more than twice as potent as the original water. Inside our body, it will neutralize only acidic elements and discharge them safely out of the body. Drinking 8 glasses of regular water can leach out of acidic wastes as well as some valuable alkaline minerals such as potassium. That's why doctors test your blood when you are going through a serious diet program. |
|
|
| |
With this alkaline water, 4 glasses are sufficient and there is no worry about losing potassium from your system. |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
Water is the Number One Nutrient! |
|
|
| |
In an emergency, the human body can manage to survive without food for well over one month, but without water we can only survive for a few days. Water is the essence of life . Over seventy percent of the human body is made up of water. That is over sixty liters in the average male! It therefore makes very good sense to drink water of the very highest quality. Trillions of cells in the body require clean water to function and to get rid of waste. Every cell in the body makes waste products, which are normally acidic and have to be removed. The easier it is for the water to enter the cells the easier it is for the cells to receive nutrients and get rid of waste. Cells do not accept any old water. The better the water the better the health of the cells. |
|
|
| |
At least eight glasses of water a day should be consumed and are we not talking about tea, coffee, sodas, colas and alcoholic drinks, which are highly acidic and all strong diuretics. Freshly made fruit and vegetable juices are excellent but there is a limit to how much one can drink . |
|
|
| |
Municipal water is the best of a bad job. Increasing pollutants, toxic metals such as lead and mercury, pesticides, industrial solvents, arsenic, nitrate and estrogen mimics (endocrine disrupters) are entering water supplies. Hundreds of toxins are now being detected in drinking water and many a municipality have only the means of testing for only twelve.... |
|
|
| |
Recently, on the television program Carte Blanche , Professor Riana Bornman said that she thinks what is important is to get the message through to industry, and get them to reduce the concentration [pollution] in production they are producing, and to limit the effluent they put into our drinking water. Gauteng's drinking water is questionable . |
|
|
| |
Many water authorities are complacent when they reassure everyone that the water we drink is great, whereas often it is nothing of the sort . |
|
|
| |
Chlorine, added to kill bacteria is carcinogenic and is another toxin that the body has to contend with. The real problem is that you never know how good or bad your tap water really is. Even with an expert analysis today, tomorrow can be different. A good filter to eliminate chlorine, bacteria, and other toxins, especially if we are drinking eight glasses a day, is an absolute must. Also, there are available attachment filters to shower roses. Breathing in water vapor laced with liberal quantities of chlorine, during a long shower is a definite hazard . |
|
|
| |
In some areas, well-meaning municipalities add fluoride to prevent tooth decay. There is now much evidence that it does not at all, but more lately. Fluoride is an accumulative toxin that can build up in the body. |
|
|
| |
Unfortunately, except for an expensive activated alumina filter, no other design of filter can remove fluoride in any meaningful way . Only distillation removes fluorides completely, reverse osmosis to low levels and ionization by about half. Drinking carbonated water is no solution, as the carbon is unattached, binds with valuable minerals and removes them from the body. People who drink plenty of sodas often have less dense bones. |
|
|
| |
Your body's many cries for water |
|
|
| |
Dr Batmanghelidj has written a remarkable book called "Your Body's Many Cries for Water" in which he describes many cures for many illnesses by drinking at least eight glasses (250ml each) of water per day. He advocates for every quart (liter) of water one should take a quarter teaspoon of sea salt. Just like many nutritionists who believe that most people are walking around with a mild form of scurvy through lack of vitamin C, Dr Batmanghelidj really believes that most people are suffering from dehydration or a deficiency of water. If the sensation of "dry mouth" is not present, it does not indicate that the body has sufficient water, and when "dry mouth" is present it is far too late. |
|
|
| |
Pains such as headaches, asthma, peptic pain, hypertension, angina, joint pains and many others, could well be one of one your body's many cries for water. The body has a rationing system with the brain having priority. If the brain begins to be short of water, water is taken from another part of the body to the detriment of that part, which eventually will malfunction and cause disease. This makes sense as the only way cells can rejuvenate themselves and get rid of waste is through ample water, and very few people drink eight glasses of water per day. It's hard to believe we can be foolish enough to put our health on the line over a few glasses of water. |
|
|
| |
The medical establishment is ignoring Dr Batmanghelidj in spite of the mountain of evidence he has put forward in many well-theorized papers. In many cases doctors are treating dehydration with diuretic drugs. Oh well, there's no money in water! Anyway, after selling more than 400,000 books, Dr Batman is receiving such an avalanche of thanks and testimonies (including doctors) that he must be helping many people, and their wallets. So keep your water levels topped up! |

Comments & Lecture Notes
by Dr. Mona Harrison, MD
Director International Water Council |
|
|
| |
Cancer tumors cannot live in alkaline water. All cancer patients should be on alkaline water, and you and I should be drinking alkalized water so our bodies won't provide an environment for cancer tumors to live |
|
|
| |
Alkaline water is fantastic for insomnia and colic. |
|
|
| |
The brain is 90% water and when it can't maintain that percentage it will pull water from all other parts of the body. |
|
|
| |
Salt, caffeine, nicotine, valium, alcohol and sugar put your body out of balance. If we don't keep our blood pH at 7.3 or above, death will occur. In fact, death will occur if the blood pH goes below 7. |
|
|
| |
The hydrogen ion is positively charged….[An ionizer]…changes the hydrogen ion into a negative charge. The liver loves negative hydrogen ions. That is why kidney and liver problems can be helped with alkaline ionized water. |
|
|
| |
Urine that has a strong odor indicates an unhealthy body. If the body is balanced there is no ammonia and protein in the urine. An over acid body causes kidney stones and gall stones. |
|
|
| |
Cysts are the beginning of tumors, which lead to cancer because minerals are deficient from that part of the body. Cancer is a long period of mineral deficiency caused by an over acid condition of the body. |
|
|
| |
The kidneys, heart, lungs, brain, intestines, mucous and skin, are [electrolytic] membranes and need electrolyzed water. |
|
|
| |
Ionized water is great for Attention Deficit Disorder as this condition is [caused by] too much rhodium and iridium in the brain. Ionized water calms these types of children. |
|
|
| |
Alkaline ionized water allows greater penetration than any other water and thus wrinkles reduce because the skin is getting the water in needs. |
|
|
| |
When alkaline ionized water was used with Alzheimer's patients, just by drinking a gallon a day, their senility problem subsided. |
|
|
| |
Alkaline ionized water is the frequency of the pineal gland and thus affects all other glands below the pineal gland. That is why the water can lower blood pressure and blood sugar, shrink an enlarged prostrate, stimulate sex drive, improve vision, improve MS and Parkinson's Disease, just to name a few. |
|
|
| |
Reverse osmosis water units remove too many minerals from the water that our body needs and is too acid for the body to help the over acid condition. |
|
|
| |
Distilled water is neutral, dead water, and has no minerals or charge. |
|
|
| |
Alkaline ionized water electrolysis converts the inorganic minerals present in the water to organic minerals, just like plant juice. |
|
|
| |
Alkaline ionized water ties up free radicals from attacking healthy cells. |
|
|
| |
Viruses can't stand the frequency of ionized water. Ionized water wipes out Candida yeast and is effective against the E-coli virus found in water, just to name a few. |
|
|
| |
Also we are aging too fast because we are acidic and dehydrated! |
|
|
| |
Alkaline ionized water is the most powerful liquid antioxidant that can rebuild the immune system and is revolutionizing the health industry. Most of our health problems today are caused by an over-acid condition of the body. |
|
|
| |
Read the book, , by Dr. Baroody. He endorses ionized water as one of the best and quickest way to get the body alkaline. |

Why Purified Water is Bad for You |
|
|
| |
During nearly 19 years of clinical practice I have had the opportunity to observe the health effects of drinking different types of water. Most of you would agree that drinking unfiltered tap water could be hazardous to your health because of things like parasites, chlorine, fluoride and dioxins. Many health fanatics, however, are often surprised to hear me say that drinking purified water on a regular, daily basis is potentially dangerous. Paavo Airola wrote about the dangers of purified water in the 1970's when it first became a fad with the health food crowd. |
|
|
| |
Distillation is the process in which water is boiled, evaporated and the vapour condensed. Purified or reverse osmosis water is free of dissolved minerals and, because of this, has the special property of being able to actively absorb toxic substances from the body and eliminate them. Studies validate the benefits of drinking purified water when one is seeking to cleanse or detoxify the system for short periods of time (a few weeks at a time). Fasting using purified water can be dangerous because of the rapid loss of electrolytes (sodium, potassium, chloride) and trace minerals like magnesium, deficiencies of which can cause heart beat irregularities and high blood pressure. |
|
|
| |
Cooking foods in purified water pulls the minerals out of them and lowers that nutrient value. |
|
|
| |
Purified water is an active absorber and when it comes into contact with air, it absorbs carbon dioxide, making # acidic. The more purified water a person drinks, the higher the body acidity becomes. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, "Purified" water, being essentially mineral free, is very aggressive, in that it tends to dissolve substances with which it is in contact Notably, carbon dioxide from the air is rapidly absorbed, making the water acidic and even more aggressive. Many metals are dissolved by purified water. |
|
|
| |
The most toxic commercial beverages that people consume (i.e. cola beverages and other soft drinks) are made from purified water. Studies have consistently shown that heavy consumers of soft drinks (with or without sugar) spill huge amounts of calcium, magnesium and other trace minerals into the urine. The more mineral loss, the greater the risk for osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, hypothyroidism, coronary artery disease, high blood pressure and a long list of degenerative diseases generally associated with premature ageing. |
|
|
| |
A growing number of health care practitioners and scientists from around the world have been advocating the theory that ageing and disease is the direct result of the accumulation of acid waste products in the body. There is a great deal of scientific documentation that supports such a theory. A poor diet may be partially to blame for the waste accumulation from Meats, sugar, white flour products, fried foods, soft drinks, processed foods, alcohol, dairy products and other junk foods cause the body to become more acidic. Stress, whether mental or physical can lead to acid deposits in the body. |
|
|
| |
There is a correlation between the consumption of soft water (purified water is extremely soft) and the incidence of cardiovascular disease. Cells, tissues and organs do not like to be dipped in acid and will do anything to buffer this acidity including the removal of minerals from the skeleton and the manufacture of bicarbonate in the blood. |
|
|
| |
The longer one drinks distilled water, the more likely the development of mineral deficiencies and an acid state. I have done well over 3000 mineral evaluations using a combination of blood, urine and hair tests in my practice. Almost without exception, people who consume distilled water exclusively, eventually develop multiple mineral deficiencies. Those who supplement their distilled water intake with trace minerals are not as deficient but still not as adequately nourished in minerals as their non-distilled water drinking counterparts even after several years of mineral supplementation. |
|
|
| |
The ideal water for the human body should be slightly alkaline and this requires the presence of minerals like calcium and magnesium. Distilled water tends to be acidic and can only be recommended as a way of drawing poisons out of the body. Once this is accomplished, the continued drinking of distilled water is a bad idea. |
|
|
| |
Water filtered through reverse osmosis tends to be neutral and is acceptable for regular use provided minerals are supplemented. |
|
|
| |
Water filtered through a solid charcoal filter is slightly alkaline. Ozonation of this charcoal filtered water is ideal for daily drinking. Longevity is associated with the regular consumption of hard water (high in minerals). Disease and early death is more likely to be seen with the long term drinking of distilled water. Avoid it except in special circumstances. |

WARNING |
|
|
| |
Using distilled; purified or reverse osmosis can be dangerous and should always be supplemented with minerals, as they are FREE of dissolved minerals = taken out. |
|
|
| |
Reverse osmosis filters should be regularly checked or contamination will result. |
|
|
| |
Untested water puts an extra burden on the body's alkaline reserves and interferes with proper alkaline balance. |
|
|
| |
Illness is more likely to be seen with the long term drinking of water that is free of dissolved minerals. Avoid it except in special circumstances that are being monitored by a health practitioner. |

Why You Should Buy an Antioxidant Water Processor? |
|
|
| |
Imagine having the ability to take normal tap water and turn it into an antioxidant with a NEGATIVE ORP (or charge), which retards the aging process. Put simply, a high or rising ORP causes oxidation and therefore aging. The negative ORP of Antioxidant Water literally retards the aging process by counteracting this rising ORP. Antioxidant Water essentially renews us at a cellular level. This is as close as we can ever hope to get to a Fountain of Youth, as incredible as that may sound. |
|
|
| |
For instance, real fresh squeezed orange juice has a negative ORP of -250. Although we can only drink a few glasses of fresh orange juice in a day, we can drink as much Antioxidant Water as we wish to a day. Many people drink as much two gallons of Antioxidant Water per day. |
|
|
| |
Antioxidant Water is a powerful antioxidant |
|
|
| |
The other Antioxidant quality of Antioxidant Water is hydroxyl ions. These are oxygen molecules with an extra electron attached to them, as are all antioxidants such as vitamins A, C and E. Hydroxyl ions scavenge for free radicals, which are unstable oxygen molecules that cause damage to us. Once the hydroxyl antioxidant and free radical have canceled each other, the result is that the body is provided with lots of oxygen and therefore lots of energy. Oxygen is one of the most exhausted nutrients in our body because of our diet and the Earth's oxygen-depleted environment today. Oxygen destroys cancer cells as well as bacteria and viruses invading the body. It carries away acid waste from body tissue. It is vital to human health, perhaps our most important nutrient. A glass of strong Antioxidant Water first thing in the morning naturally helps you to wake up. |
|
|
| |
To get the full benefit of negatively charged, oxygen rich, Antioxidant Water, it must be consumed fresh and right out of the tap through the processor. |
|
|
| |
Slow the water flow down on the Antioxidant Water Processor and the glass you fill will have thousands of tiny bubbles in it. Those are hydroxyl ions, which is the antioxidant and the reason for the Negative ORP. This is because the ORP is the most fragile aspect of Antioxidant Water lasting only a maximum of 18-24 hours. |
|
|
| |
Antioxidant Water is extremely alkaline |
|
|
| |
Antioxidant Water helps balance the body's pH, which tends to be acidic because of our diet comprised of cooked foods, pasteurized or otherwise processed foods. Soft drinks are the most acid substance a person can put in their body. This acidic condition creates an ideal environment in our body for disease to thrive. For example, accumulated acid waste in the joints encourages inflammation and arthritis. Because it is very Alkaline, Antioxidant Water dissolves accumulated acid waste and returns the body to a balance. Keeping our body Alkaline is the first line of defense in fighting any disease. |
|
|
| |
Antioxidant Water is more than three times more dehydrating than conventional water. |
|
|
| |
Water is one of the most important elements in the body, which is over 80% water. Antioxidant Water is fundamentally different from conventional water. This is because the size and shape of the water molecule cluster has reduced in size and change in shape to hexagonal, which allows the water cluster to pass through our tissue more easily. One of the primary causes of disease is chronic cellular dehydration, a condition that leaves the body's cells in a perpetual state of weakness and defense. This is one of the major causes of chronic disease is providing the body with insufficient water. We simply do not drink enough water (at least half our weight in ounces) to keep ourselves properly hydrated and therefore healthy |
|
|
| |
Antioxidant Water is extremely detoxifying . |
|
|
| |
This is also because of the reduced size and shape of the water molecule clusters. Once reduced, these water clusters pass through the body's tissue much easier and push out toxins and acid waste quite effectively. Water Processors have several levels of strength so people who are toxic can begin by drinking mild Antioxidant Water, slowly drinking it stronger as they acclimate to it. |
|
|
| |
Minerals that are ionized are more Bio-available |
|
|
| |
This means that the body can absorb them much more efficiently and make use of them where they are needed throughout the body. Water-soluble trace minerals of any kind can be added to your water source through the filter on the Water Processor. Minerals are some of the most important nutrients the body needs, yet mineral deficiency is common. Antioxidant Water is an efficient and effective way for the body to get its minerals. |
|
|
| |
Antioxidant Water improves the taste of food |
|
|
| |
Antioxidant Water hydrates food better; helps bring out its flavor lowers acid levels of any food including coffee, tea & juice. It ionizes the minerals in the food, which helps make them bio-available . |
|
|
| |
Ionized Acid Water is great for the skin |
|
|
| |
Applying Ionized Acid Water regularly works like an astringent to tighten the skin and remove wrinkles; however, there is NO chemical residue. It soothes and helps keep the skin clear of acne and other blemishes. |
|
|
| |
At its strongest level, Ionized Acid Water kills most bacteria on contact. It improves hair and a skin condition of any kind, including fungus, cuts, scraps, and even serious wounds. It takes the itch out of mosquito bites, the sting out of other insect bites. |
|
|
| |
Ionized Acid Water has been used successfully in treating diabetic ulcers. This is a condition that develops in diabetics where a fester opens in the skin, usually in the legs or feet, which can result in amputation if not promptly treated. These ulcers can become very serious. However, soaking the ulcer in Ionized Acid Water has tremendous healing effects. |
|
|
| |
Ionized Acid Water promotes substantially healthier plant growth. |
|
|
| |
Some of the Benefits of Antioxidant Water – High pH – (Hydroxyl Ions) |
|
|
| |
Drinking Alkaline water – drink after exercising as antioxidant water replenishes the electrolyte balance 3 times more than other waters because of it's smaller water cluster it is more easily absorbed and recuperation is faster. It also helps with fatigue problems because of this. Sleep is helped if you drink a glass ½ hour before bedtime. |
|
|
| |
When cooking with Alkalized water, rice absorbs the water more easily enhancing the natural taste. Foods cook quicker because of the smaller water molecules in antioxidant water. |
|
|
| |
Tea, Coffee and other beverages – Antioxidant water also adds flavor and brings out the best in beverages. Beverages taste smoother they don't have that acidic taste / tang. Tidemarks on cups take longer to establish themselves and are easy to clean away. |
|
|
| |
Vegetables – wash vegetables with antioxidant water and get the maximum tastes and flavors from them in salads etc. The bitter tastes that can sometimes be experienced are taken away when washing / rinsing with antioxidant water. |
|
|
| |
Other Benefits of the Antioxidant Component - (drink at least 8 glasses per day) |
|
|
| |
- Gives you lots of Energy - electrolyte / oxygen.
- Washes the acidic wastes from the body
- Helps digestion and digestive problems
- Hydrates your body 3 times more effectively than conventional water and bottled water.
- Nutrients are absorbed more efficiently into the body.
- Foods cooked with Antioxidant Water taste better their nutrients are absorbed better by the body.
- Wash your vegetables, fruits, meats and fish with it to remove bacteria.
- Powders such as flour are mixed more thoroughly and smoothly
- Antioxidant Water boils faster and cools down faster
- Promotes regularity with constipation
- Promotes healthier skin and complexion.
- Promotes overall health and healing by bringing the body into balance.
- Healthy cells live in an Alkalized environment.
- Helps with diabetes.
- It is also good for Animals as well as Humans.

Some of the Benefits of using Acidic Water – Low pH - (Hydrogen Ions) |
|
|
| |
EXTERNAL USE ONLY - Do Not Drink |
|
|
| |
Skincare – Acid water acts as an astringent that is very effective for skin care because human skin and hair should be mildly acidic. Use the acid water externally to bring back the smoothness to skin and sheen to hair. |
|
|
| |
Flowers – stay fresh longer when ACID water is used. |
|
|
| |
Brushing Teeth – use Acid water for brushing teeth and removing plaque helps with gum disease. Gargle for a sore throat. If amalgams are present use high-level alkaline water. Athletes foot – use acid water to help remove the foot fungus. Vaginal Thrush – uses as an external douche, relives itching and helps to resolve the vaginal thrush. |
|
|
| |
In the Kitchen – Use ACID water for cleaning work surfaces, dish clothes, cutting and breadboards. Cups and dishes rinsed in ACID water after washing are sterilized. Cups do not have a “tide” line of tea or coffee as easily if at all, dependant on the water supply / area. |
|
|
| |
Other Benefits of ACID portion of Ionization - Do Not Drink |
|
|
| |
- Helps to resolve aerobic bacterial problems.
- Helps to heal cuts, blisters, scrapes, or rashes.
- Provides excellent relief from MOSQUITO BITES or BEE STINGS
- Provides excellent relief from POISON IVY & POISON OAK
