The effects
According to Dr. Stefan Kuprowsky, “Acid wastes build up in the body in the form of cholesterol, gallstones, kidney stones, arterial plaque, urates, sulfates and phosphates. These acidic waste products are the direct cause of premature aging and the onset of chronic disease.”

A vast body of research reveals that you can help neutralize acid build-up in the blood and maintain a balanced pH, by taking some simple steps, such as:
— Exercise
— Avoiding highly acid-forming food and drink
— Drinking the right water

In health circles there has been much recent talk about acid/ alkaline imbalance. If we can clarify how experts recommend we correct this imbalance, let’s see.
Alkaline ionized water “first came to notice in Japan, where researchers noted that people drinking water that came from certain fast- moving rocky mountain streams enjoyed extraordinarily good health. In “Prostate Health in 90 days”
As Dr.Robert Atkins, the well-known author, health and diet expert, notes: “Just about every condition I can think of, from arthritis to diabetes to cancer, is associated with acidity.”
When this occurs, the body will restore its optimal pH by depleting certain minerals, such as magnesium, potassium and calcium, from bones and organs. In addition, your immune system may become fatigued from dealing with an excess of acid. Your body then stores acidic wastes in ‘hiding places’ such as muscles etc. rather than releasing the acids into the bloodstream.
What is the “right” water?
” International studies show that populations with little or no history of illness, such as cancer, drink higher pH (alkaline) waters. Potential risk factors were considered and factored out, it became evident that they had been drinking waters with a pH of 9.0 to 10.0.” Dr. Leonard Horowitz in “Aids and Ebola”
The problem
When neither too acid nor too alkaline, your body functions best. Almost all of us have become acidic due to diet, drinks and stress– both psychological and from pollution. Acids can build up in our body, causing systems to be out of balance.
Alkaline water is produced at home with a small kitchen appliance called a water ionizer (long in use in Japan and Korea). As water ionizers have become popular in North America, more health professionals have had the opportunity to evaluate their effects on clients:
” It is my opinion that ionized water will change the way in which all health practitioners and the public approach their health in the coming years.” Dr. T. Baroody in “Alkalize or Die.”.
Sue Pollock, N.D. writes, we can “assist the body in being more alkaline with … drinking alkaline water.”

Why not just rely on a change of diet?
According to Sang Whang, researcher and author of “Reverse Aging”, the danger is that we might omit important foods:.
” I believe that the best water is water that is alkaline (reduced) and purified using a small device known as a water ionizer.” (Dr. Stefan Kuprowsky).
” Since the waste products that we are trying to discharge are acidic, the right kind of water is alkaline water … My personal recommendation is to enjoy the foods that we like, but do not over-eat or exclude any food. Eat in moderation following the professional dieticians’ “balanced diet” concept, and let alkaline water do the job of cleansing acidic wastes.”.
