Alkaline Water Benefits?

Are There Any Alkaline Water Benefits?

Are there any alkaline water benefits? Yes and no. That may come as a surprise to you considering that alkaline water has been marketed as a cure for the disease, lowers blood pressure, fights cancer, etc. These claims are wrong. At least they are only half-right. It takes one more very important aspect to water in order for it to be super-healthy and that’s antioxidants. Just being alkaline isn’t enough!

How Water Becomes Alkaline

There are many ways for water to become alkaline and some processes have “alkaline water benefits” and others have virtually no benefit. Before you spend nearly $3 a liter for bottled alkaline water (like Diamond Water), or invest in some water alkalizing machine, consider these three ways water can become alkaline. Not all alkaline water is created equal!
1) Alkaline minerals. If you live in Florida, Arizona, or other parts of the Southern US, turn on your tap and you’ve got alkaline water. In parts of Florida, it can be as high as 9 pH. So, if there were all of these alkaline water benefits that some companies claim, why aren’t the people in Florida healthier than the rest of the US? It’s because the water there is made alkaline by an abundance of alkaline minerals, mostly calcium and magnesium. So, if you’re deficient in these minerals, that water will benefit your health in that way. But it will not impact your blood pressure or prevent disease.

You see, most human illnesses and diseases are caused by high levels of oxidative stress in our cells, also known as free radical damage, that literally breaks us down at a cellular level. The older we get, the higher levels of oxidative stress in our cells, the more likely we are to develop disease and illness.

So, if there are going to be alkaline water benefits like fighting illness and disease, it has to have antioxidants in it. Antioxidants are natural to water like in a glacial stream energized by the sun, but once water is removed from its natural state and put into storage, like a bottle or municipal water tank, those antioxidants fizzle away, and even if the water is alkaline, it won’t benefit your health other than to hydrate you and give you minerals.

2) Natural alkaline water energized by the sun. The best water you can drink is, in fact, energized by the sun. The healthiest water is from a glacial stream. The sun’s energy is magnified by the ice and super-energizes the water with ions, creating an alkaline chemical structure that is reduced in size and easily absorbed into your cells and it is full of water’s natural antioxidants in the form of ions. The ions from the sun join with the hydrogen in the water, which absorb into your cells and neutralize the free radicals causing the oxidative stress that leads to illness and disease.

So, if you want the most alkaline water benefits, move next to a glacial stream!

Unfortunately, that’s not possible for 99.9% of the world’s population. You can’t just bottle it, either, because the hydrogen ions will fizzle out like carbonation fizzles out of a soda. So what do you do?

3) Far infrared radiation makes the water alkaline. Far infrared radiation comes from minerals like tourmaline, found mostly in really good springs. If the water is exposed to enough of these minerals, they can electrolyze the water and create a weak alkaline pH, about 7.5 or 8 pH, AND create a low number of antioxidants in the water since the FIR will energize the hydrogen and create the ions. If you can purchase a machine or other apparatus that has these FIR minerals in it, you can create a drinking water that has alkaline water benefits like mildly reducing the oxidative stress level in your cells. But this is nowhere near what the sun can do.

4) Alkaline water made by water electrolysis. The closest process to the sun in creating alkaline, antioxidant water is water electrolysis created by a water ionizer. A water ionizer uses platinum and titanium plates connected to positive and negative electrodes to deliver pure ions to your tap water, creating a large number of ions, similar in number to the water you would find in a glacial stream.
Additionally, a water ionizer cleans all of the impurities out of your water using an advanced, multi-stage water filter so that nothing harmful makes it to your glass.

Yes, it would be awesome if we could all live next a glacial stream to drink nature’s water with alkaline water benefits and antioxidants, too. But since that is impossible for almost all of us, the next best thing is a water ionizer. Drink alkaline, ionized water, and those marketed health benefits will become a reality!
