The great inexpensive way to help your health

There has been much said about alkalizing your body for health. To many people, especially in traditional water treatment, this falls under what we pleasantly term “alternative” water treatment. The main stream water traditionalists in the industry probably call it voodoo water treatment or Bamboozled, flimflam, or hoodwinked water treatment. However I beg to differ.

Our bodies, especially the fluid aspects of our bodies, need to maintain a ph of about 7.4. Our blood should be from about 7.35 to 7.45, our spinal fluid about 7.5, our saliva about 7.5, and the body fluids outside the cell which is composed of blood plasma, interstitial fluid, lymph and transcellular fluid should be 7.4. So for our bodies to operate normally and be healthy collectively our overall ph needs to be around 7.4.

When our collective ph falls below 7 we begin to open ourselves up to chronic illnesses, immune disorders, cancers, and other degenerative diseases. So how do we get from a birth ph of 7.4 to our current ph state of 6.8 – 6.0 and in some cases lower? The answer; our busy, hectic, unhealthy lifestyles. It’s the fast foods, the acidic gourmet menus, the Dr. Peppers, Cherry Coke Zeros, Mountain Dews, and A&W Root Beers! It’s not enough sleep, too much stress, too much anxiety and worry, too many unhealthy habits like smoking, alcohol, pizzas, processed sugars, and a host of other poor choices. We are what we eat, and we are how we live.

So the question is, “So What?” Indeed, so what. So these choices and this lifestyle simply opens the door to a life later on of disease and illness. It all comes down to how do you want to live your life? Do you enjoy feeling yucky? Do you enjoy pain? Do you enjoy sluggishness? Do you enjoy late night acid reflux? Do you enjoy chronic health issues which limit your ability to move, think, and be happy? If so, then it’s pizza and soda every night followed by no sleep and stress. Yeah!

But for those of you who want to stop the roller coaster and get off, then alkalizing your water may be one of the easiest steps to incorporate into a healthier better lifestyle. Alkalizing your water is a great way to get a lot of alkalinity into your body. If you are drinking plenty of water, which should roughly be 1/2 your body weight in ounces, then you are bathing your internal body in alkalinity. So if for instance your body measures at 6.5 ph, and your drinking 5 glasses a day of alkaline water at a ph of 9.5, you are beginning to neutralize your acidic body, which is a good thing. It’s a great start to improving your health and repairing your body.

The best way to test your ph is to simply get some ph test strips from Amazon or your local drug store and spit on it. Then compare the color on the strip to the color on the bottle and see where you are. You’ll usually be more acidic in the mornings so pick a time in the AM and do it at the same time each time you test. Keep a log of your results. The internet also has many wonderful and informative sites on testing your bodies ph. So dive in and get educated.

Of course you’ll need to make other course corrections such as eating a more alkaline diet by avoiding sodas, fast food, and other overly acidic meals. Start organizing your life to get the 8-10 hours of sleep your body requires. Then find ways to reduce the stress in your life. Meditate, do yoga, take 10 minutes several times a day to disengage, go on a relaxing vacation, lighten up in your life, join Audible and listen to good books while stuck in rush hour traffic, listen to relaxing music, improve toxic relationships. Do all of this with a Yeti filled with nice cold alkaline water, and you’ll be on your way to better health.

See our webpage at Totalwaterllc.com and read more about our inline alkaline filters under “Alkaline Products” that will alkalize your reverse osmosis system and bring your ph to 9.5 and will create the negative ORPs (Oxidation Reduction Potential) you need. No need to spend $2,500 – $5,000 on electronic alkalizing machines with all of their cumbersome hoses and all the counter space they take up. All you need is one of our Microline reverse osmosis systems at $725, and our inline alkaline filter at $150 and your set. Not only will it produce very clean water by filtering the water down to .0001 microns, which is smaller than a virus, but will remove the chemical organics with long names that are sneaking into our water supplies. So you start with purified water and then you alkalize it. The perfect way to drink your alkalinity.

You will also need to check the ph of your water regularly to make sure you are getting the alkalinity from your system. You can go to your local pool supply place and purchase a chemical ph test kit. It will come with the the indicator and a tube with measurements in color on it. Simply fill the tube with the correct amount of water indicated on the tube, add 5 drops of the indicator to the tube, shake, and match the color.
