Can Acidity In Your Body Be Reversed By Drinking Alkaline, Ionized Water?
Every one of your body fluids have different pH readings. Some are alkaline others acidic. One example is gastric acid. It needs to have a low pH (Acidic) or your food would not be digested. your blood is required to be slightly alkaline or you'll die.
Your body maintains these balances all on it's own without the aid of alkaline water.
But could alkaline water really cure cancer or increase your energy? According to the manufacturers of Alkaline Water Ionizers, as they're called, it will make this happen and even more! But can alkaline ionized water actually do what's claimed?
If we're on the subject of biology, I will discuss what would happen if you drank a glass of alkaline ionized water. Your very acidic gastric juices would strip the water of alkalinity. As the water entered your intestines, stomach acid will strip it of alkalinity. Just what happens? It will become alkaline!
So any water you drink eventually becomes alkaline anyway!
What's the lesson? Don't waste your hard earned money on an alkaline water ionizer. It's not going to neutralize acid within your body. It cannot!
An Anti-Oxidant?
Free radical damage in the human body is presumed to be the real reason behind serious diseases like arthritis and cancer. By ridding oneself of these free radicals (which are presumed to be running unchecked throughout our bodies) will reverse the illness.
Free radical damage within the body is supposed to be the explanation for serious diseases like arthritis and cancer and getting rid of free radicals (which are presumed to be running unchecked within our bodies) will reverse these terrible diseases.
All sounds very plausible, however it doesn't consider that the entire body already has devastatingly powerful natural anti-oxidants which are millions of times more effective!
A bit of a problem crops up here. Is alkaline ionized water REALLY an anti-oxidant anyway? Well, picture this: What does bleach do? It's oxidizing power strips colour from things like your clothes. It does this because it's an OXIDANT. Now did you know that alkaline water can bleach the colour from iodine? Yes it really can! it will do this because (wait for it... ) it is an OXIDANT!
Anti-oxidant that can cure cancer? I don't think so.

I love writing about alkalinity and pH related issues. Read my articles on the fraudulent claims of alkaline water benefits as well as whether the hugely popular pH balance diet really cures all ills.
