Avoiding Dehydration with a Water Ionizer
by Alderin Ordell, MA
Did you know that water makes up two-thirds of your body? That means it’s critical for your body to function properly. Each day your body loses about half a gallon of water and you have to drink that much just to stay hydrated. But what type of water should you drink? Purified? Bottled? Tap? Ionized and alkaline? The answer is ionized and alkaline and here’s why.
The Dangers of Dehydration to Our Health
Statistics shows that about 75% of Americans are dehydrated. Improper hydration is the cause of many diseases.
Dehydration has a negative effect on your body’s cells. When your body is dehydrated, the membrane of your cells change. The distance across the membrane becomes much longer and, as a result, the substances which go through your cell’s membrane begin to get stuck in it. These changed body cells have higher resistance which meanstoxins and metabolic waste are accumulated because they can’t leave the body.
The fact is your body just can’t function normally if its cells are damaged. The transportation of oxygen and nutrients through the body slows down and this causes disease.
Dehydration has also become a serious problem for elderly people. Chronic dehydration results in many age associated diseases such as arthritis, disorders and senile dementia.
The University of Washington researched the connection between body hydration and diseases and they discovered that adults who drank more than 5 glasses of water per day reduced the risk of bladder cancer by 50%, breast cancer by 79% and colon cancer by 35%. But did you know that drinking ionized alkaline water from a water ionizer will improve your health even more?
How a Water Ionizer Hydrates Your Body
When you keep your body properly hydrated, you minimize the risk of anxiety, rheumatoid arthritis and other adult onset diseases, back pain and colitis. If you drink more than five glasses a day, you improve your metabolism, increase your endurance, and even lower your blood pressure and cholesterol. But the type of water you drink matters greatly.
Any kind of purified water is dangerous to your health. Purified water has been through a filtration process called reverse osmosis or distillation and the result is all of the minerals, oxygen, and antioxidants are removed from water leaving just empty pure water. It’s not good to drink pure water because it is stagnant and acidic and will damage your cells.
Tap water is not good to drink because it is also stagnant because it sits around in a holding tank for many days before it is pumped to your home. While tap water sits in the holding tank, it is treated with chemicals like fluoride and chloramine and chlorine, all of which are hazards to our health.
Bottled water is bad to drink because it is usually purified water and this acidic water will break down the soft plastic bottle, exposing your body to BPA and BPB, both which are linked to the formation of cancer.
Ionized alkaline water produced by an EOS water ionizer is the best water to drink. It is filtered through sixteen stages of carbon, ceramic, felt, and ion resin to purify the water to 99.99% purity. Then the water is ionized in a water electrolysis chamber, which replicates the natural process of the sun to restore ions to your drinking water. Ions are very important because they team up with the hydrogen in your water to form hydroxyl ions, which are mother nature’s perfect little antioxidant in water.
A glass of alkaline ionized water from a EOS water ionizer has water molecules that are one third the size of bottled or tap water, making it three times more hydrating to your body. Plus, a glass of alkaline ionized water has more antioxidants than a glass of blue berry juice!
So, protecting our bodies from dehydration is critical to good health. And the best water to drink is ionized alkaline water from an EOS water ionizer because it is pure and full of antioxidants to cleanse your body and make you feel great!
