Acid or Alkaline
ACIDIC WATER - A water
condition which has a pH lower than 7.0.
ALKALINE WATER - A water condition which has a
pH higher than 7.0
|
A pH test will tell you how alkaline or acidic your body fluids are. Scientists have found that healthy people have systems that are alkaline. |

When water carries more hydrogen than hydroxyl ions, it is said to be ACID; when hydroxyl ions predominate, science calls water ALKALINE. Our blood system is always working to keep itself at that narrow range of pH 7.3 to 7.45. This process is called homeostasis.
When we drink a popular soft drink like colas, which has an acidic pH of 2.5, the bloodstream does not lower itself to that level. Rather, the sugars and other elements in the drink are processed by the blood into acid wastes: some are eliminated, and others are stored at various locations in the body.
A new theory of Aging
Modern medicine has not been able to answer the "Why We Age?" question. Yet another theory of aging and illness has been around for a long time. It has been voiced by natural healing practitioners all over the world, in America, Asia, and Europe. Briefly, this theory holds that aging (and many diseases) results from the accumulation of acid waste products in the body.
WHAT CAUSES ACID WASTES BUILD-UP
Bad diet 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 waste enter the bloodstream, the blood, in order to maintain that narrow pH range (7.35 pH to 7.45 pH), must store these wastes somewhere. These wastes, lodged in the body over decades, will overburden the whole system. Drink Kangen water to rid the body of wastes.
WHAT CAUSES ACID WASTES
Bad Diets
includes meat and potatoes, fried food, soft drink colas, sucrose and other
sugars build up acid salts in the body. Often these deposits, by having to be
stored away from blood flow, can remain in the body for decades.
Stress both mental and physical can also form acid deposits in the body.
Mental stress can make you feel depressed. While the physiology, scientific
connection to stress in the body has not been completely established, there
exists a school of thought in psychology, called psychosomatics, which maintains
that ones 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.
