The inside of our bodies have been turned into a warzone. Extremely fatty and acidic diets mean that the average American is producing so much acid waste that our bodies can’t cope with the load.
And studies have shown that because our body can’t cope with what is being put inside of it, it is storing acid waste in our fatty deposits instead of processing this harmful waste.
But there is one thing we can consume that can help us fight back in this war against acidic waste: alkaline drinking water. Let me explain why.
Studies undertaken by Dr. Lynda Frassetto from the University of California have shown that we are stockpiling acid waste in our fatty deposits instead of eliminating it like would normally be expected through our kidneys and liver.
Amazingly, her studies have shown that the reasons for this is because humans, in evolutionary terms, have changed. Our bodies have adapted to cope with an intensely fatty and acidic modern diet and have made a judgement call to help us survive this onslaught of bad food – to protect our vital organs from complete deterioration and failure. This means that solidified acid waste like cholesterol and crystallized uric acid, instead of being processed by vital organs the kidneys and liver, are being stockpiled in our fatty deposits for later disposal. The problem is, this waste never get fully disposed of. And the implications for this are huge.
As well as acid related diseases such as diabetes, osteoarthritis, cancer, and more, having an excessively acidic body will also lead to obesity and low energy. This is because when our bodies have too much acid inside of them, essential minerals such as sodium, calcium, magnesium and potassium are stripped from our bones and vital organs and used to neutralize the acid. And this degradation inside our bodies leads to the debilitating problems listed above. This is where consuming alkaline drinking water can help us fight back.
The reason that the human body has changed and that our bodies have become overly acidic in the first place is because of our highly acidic diet. The average American consumes way too much Coke and other soda, which is probably the most acidic food you could consume with a pH of 2.5. Add to this other chief offenders such as beer and red meat (3.5 pH), white pasta, wine, dairy, nuts, butters and oils, and you have turned your insides into a warzone where your health is on the losing side.
On the other end of the acid scale is alkaline drinking water. With a pH above 7, a water becomes alkaline and anything above that level is going to be immeasurably better for you than drinking soda or beer. But if you really want to arm your body to fight back against acidity, you should choose to drink the best type of alkaline drinking water.
Getting alkaline drinking water is one way to fight back against an acidic body. But it is not enough. One property that actually makes alkaline drinking water really healthy and healing for us is antioxidants. And if a water doesn’t have them in it, we are wasting our time drinking it and expecting it to reverse the tide of battle in the fight for our well-being.
Antioxidants are created in water by a process called electrolysis, which also happens to make a water alkaline. The more of a certain type of ions in a water, the more antioxidants a water will possess. The best site for this process is in natural springs or glacial streams, where energy from the sun gets turned into these good ions to produce the best alkaline drinking water that is packed full of antioxidants.
You can either get this water from a spring/glacial stream, which is of course highly impractical, or produce it in your home with a water ionizer machine with alkaline water filter. The water that is produced is ionized alkaline drinking water with antioxidants that will reduce the oxidative stress on our cells and whose alkalinity will help neutralize the acidity inside our bodies. Alkaline drinking water from an ionizer, consumed regularly, is a sure bet to help win the war against an acidic diet.
