Welcome to Alkaline Water 101! In this virtual classroom you can view the very best videos and resources in just the right sequence to help you understand the value of alkaline ionized water to your health. Sit back and enjoy these amazing videos while you learn all about the amazing healing benefits of alkaline ionized water!

Very simply stated, alkaline water is water which is above neutral (7.0 pH). Alkaline is the opposite of acid. On a range of 0 to 14, everything above the middle is alkaline. Therefore 7.2 is considered alkaline, even though you might also consider it in the "neutral range". A neutral range is a very narrow range of from about 6.8 pH to about 7.2 pH. Our bodies consist mostly of water (for optimal health it should be over 70% water) and can only be healthy in a very narrow, slightly alkaline, range of about 7.36 pH.

Our bodies are naturally alkaline and must maintain a balance of about 7.365 pH at all times. The alternative is death. Because of this, acids often get trapped in fat, joints and cells [to protect us].

The fact of acidic wastes getting stuck in our cells, impedes all cell functions. Our cells must be constantly bathed in slightly alkaline pH water in order to be hydrated and cleansed. Without enough hydration our cell wastes can't get eliminated. This leads to most of America's common illnesses [colds, allergies, diabetes, obesity, acne, indigestion, headaches, heart disease and cancer]. These diseases all have direct links to either lack of proper hydration and/or too acidic of a diet. 

A water ionizer creates natural, clean, fresh alkaline water which can then provide us with both pH buffers and antioxidants. PH buffers and antioxidants can extend the life of every living cell in our body. Research has proven that cells can live far longer and healthier than we think. They need the right fluids and they need these to be replenished daily. Unhealthy water is acidic and/or full of chemicals, thus will not properly hydrate our cells. Soda is even worse; at about a pH of 3, it's by far the worst liquid you can consume. People who drink soda, smoke, eat chips or other fatty foods, eat "junk food" or have stressful jobs all have one thing in common -- acidic bodies. They need alkaline ionized water to provide buffers, antioxidants and balance to their body.

Ionized water provides our bodies with the healthy water it needs for longer cell life. Ionized water is alkaline and provides plenty of buffers to balance off the excess of acids our bodies must eliminate. It is recomended that you drink plenty of ionized water (preferably 8 glasses) per day from a water ionizer for your cells to live the longest and healthiest life possible.

This video is interview with Jim Karnstedt on ionized water and the importance of pH balance to the health and homeostasis of our bodies.  

Think of an apple cut in half. It turns brown quickly. That's called oxidation.

Oxidation is just a chemical reaction that occurs, and the result is the production of free radicals which are damaging to the cells. A free radical is an unbalanced oxygen molecule with an unpaired electron. It needs another electron to be stable and steals it from your cells. The cells of the apple are damaged when exposed to the oxygen in the air. Oxidation happening inside our bodies, causes lots of cell damage. Oxidation speeds up aging, causes skin to lose elasticity, weakens muscles, and causes cancer cells [mutated cells] to form. For better health oxidation needs to be combatted with anti-oxidants.

ORP stands for "oxidation reduction potential" ...or reducing the oxidation, which is another way of saying anti-oxidant. You are probably familiar with the term anti-oxidant because vitamin C and E are anti-oxidants. With a Negative ORP you get lots of negatively charged Hydrogen to combine with the free radicals formed by oxidation. This makes them stable again and non-threatening to your cell health. When you say "negative ORP" that's good -- it reduces the oxidation [anti-oxidizes]. Positive ORP is bad -- it increases oxidation [adds more free radicals to the mix]. Alkaline ionized water is powerful in that it gives you lots of negative ORP to combat cell damage all day long.

• Gives you the right pH for your water so that you have lots of buffers to allow your cells to rid themselves of their acidic wastes. Without constant buffers, your cells must hold in these acidic wastes or rob some buffers from your joints or bones. Wastes can also be dumped into fat cells and cause obesity.
• Makes the water wetter! Alkaline water ionizers break the water down from larger clusters of water molecules to smaller ones. By doing this, the smaller clusters are more able to pass through cell membranes and enter the cells. So, hydration can even get better by making the water wetter!
• Antioxidizes. The alkaline water ionizers we sell on our website all increase the ORP (oxigen reduction potential) which is another way of saying "increase the antioxidant potential". Free radicals are molecules that are missing an electron and therefore are unstable. To become stable a free radical must find an electron. They will often steal the needed electron from healthy cells -- damaging them or altering their DNA. Free radical damage has been directly linked to cancer. Alkaline ionized water contains huge amounts of OH negative ions [molecules that have an extra electron] making an alkaline ionized water a very powerful antioidant.
• Filters out the chlorine, other unhealthy elements or impurities and removes 85% of fluoride, but allows the good minerals (such as calcium) through.
• Improves taste. Alkaline ionized water is alive-looking and great tasting! Far superior to the water that comes out of your tap.
• Optimal absorption. Makes every glass of water you drink specifically targeted toward assisting your optimal health.
• Has healing qualities: Alkaline ionized water actually enables the body to heal itself and to keep itself healthy and free of sickness and disease, what it was designed to do.

This video offers simple explanations of the benefits of alkaline ionized water to the body's health and longevity. It is also a collection of fantastic testimonials. Doctors and laymen claim amazing health benefits from Alkaline Ionized Water.

This video offers basic explanations and testimonials of how effective and beneficial alkaline ionized water is to our bodies' health and longevity.  

This is an interview with Dr. Robert Young, author of The pH Miracle.
