Most people hear about water ionizers for one reason - they're
interested in drinking alkaline water. Books like "Alkalize Or
Die" by Theodore Baroody have recently become popular due to a
growing awareness of the benefits of alkaline water.
So what is this growing trend all about? What really is the
importance of an alkaline diet?
Well, the human body finds its natural balance at a pH of 7.3.
We'll get further into pH in our next lesson, but for now, just
know that pH 7.0 means something is neutral, above 7.0 means it is
alkaline, and below 7.0 means it is acidic.
This means that our body is NATURALLY alkaline in its composition.
This is a balance that is maintained at all costs by our body
processes. Meaning our bodies will always be working to keep our
blood at 7.3 pH.
The more acidic food/drink/substances that we feed into our body,
the harder our body has to work to maintain this alkaline balance.
The harder we make our body work, the more easily illnesses can
form as a result.
Studies have been done to show that almost ALL of today's most
common health issues can be linked to a combination of dehydration
and over-acidity of a person's diet.
Illnesses like chronic headaches, diabetes, obesity, acne,
indigestion, and numerous others have all been individually
linked to this lack of balance in the body.
By maintaining a well-hydrated alkaline diet, you're helping your
body in truly countless ways.
So when we're looking into an alkaline diet, what are the key foods
to avoid?
Soda is the absolute worst thing you can put in your body. Sodas
have been measured at a pH of 2.3, acidic enough to dissolve human
teeth! It can take up to 28 glasses of 7.0 pH natural water to
balance out the acidic consequences of one glass of soda.
Other common acidic foods are fatty, greasy foods, particularly red
meat and certain nuts.
Foods that are great to eat would include many of your green
vegetables, certain fruits, certain fish, and certain teas. For a
more extensive list of alkaline and acidic foods, check out this

Now I know what you may be thinking. "I'm not going to change my
entire diet! That's too hard and no fun." Don't worry, I'm the
same way! But by taking out key acidic elements of your diet (like
removing soda), and having a diet rich in alkaline water from a
water ionizer, it becomes very easy to start living a far more
balanced lifestyle. It's not hard at all.
I personally began feeling more energetic, seeing a faster recovery
after my workouts, and simply enjoying an overall better mood after
achieving the alkaline balance in my body. Let me tell you, it's
worth it!
Well, that's it for today's lesson. Congratulations! You're
through one fifth of the course. Tomorrow we'll be going in-depth
on the topics of pH and ORP. We'll discuss what they really mean,
and how you can improve your health and well being by understanding
how these two elements are affecting your body every day.
Talk to you soon!
