While we all know the importance of what we eat, most people neglect the fact that water is just as vital to our health. After all, it is the substance we consume the most every day and accounts for up to 70 percent of a human body. Many would think any water that is clean and pure is good enough. However, after decades of clinical studies, medical and scientific researches, the Japanese Government has officially recognized the medical benefits of one specific type of water - alkaline antioxidant water. So what is so different about this water?
ALKALINE
Our overly acidic lifestyle is perhaps the biggest problem of our time. Take cancer for example, almost all cancer patients are acidic. A healthy baby naturally has an alkaline body. A sick patient would most likely be acidic. Most of our everyday diets are actually acidic, such as meat, egg, milk, bread, coffee, alcohol, soft drinks. Dr. Baroody in his book, Alkalize or Die, states many symptoms related to acidity, such as heartburn, low energy, constipation, asthma, psoriasis and gastritis.
An extremely important function of this water is to counterbalance our overly acidic diets, and shift our bodies' pH. Since a body is made up of almost 70 percent water, changing the alkalinity of that water would be a huge benefit to the body.
POWERFUL ANTIOXIDANT
Oxidation is the process of rusting and rotting in the body and is the cause of aging, cell obsolescence and eventually death. It is same oxidation that causes the rusting of a nail or a sliced apple. Within our own body, we produce oxidizers all the time. Even sunlight causes oxidation. All of these things create oxidation in a body and free-radical damage. Many forms of cancer are thought to be the result of reactions between free-radicals and DNA. Susan Lark, M.D., university lecturer and author of The Chemistry of Success, points out that antioxidant like vitamins C, E, beta carotene and alkaline antioxidant water can help the body against the development of heart disease, strokes, immune dysfunctions and other common ailments.
Alkaline antioxidant water is saturated with active hydrogen, which neutralizes the damaging effect of free-radicals. Drinking this water helps reduce the oxidation damage caused by free-radicals and slows down the aging process. We need antioxidants to overcome free-radical damage in our skin, liver, brain, tissues, and practically everywhere in our bodies.
MICRO-CLUSTERED
Alkaline antioxidant water is also structured in such a way that the body can use it better. Through the process of electrolysis, the water is micro-clustered, meaning simply that the water molecules are smaller than regular water. This micro-clustered water, once inside the body, basically hydrates better and helps detoxifies the body better. In other words, it is cleansing the garbage out as well as carrying more of the good stuff into the cells.
That is why Dr. Hiromi Shinya, world renowned colon specialist and inventor of the colonoscopy, highly recommends this water. Footage from his patients' colonoscopy showed how this water cleaned the inside of the intestinal track, literally turning dark, sick, unhealthy cells into healthy tissue again in only 30 to 90 days. In Dr. Shinya's popular book, The Enzyme Factor, he states that Kangen Water (alkaline antioxidant water) is considered the very best drinking water because of its incomparable power of hydration, detoxification and anti-oxidation.
Drinking alkaline antioxidant water solves two of the major problems that cause aging and diseases by shifting our bodies to a healthy alkaline state as well as providing plenty of antioxidants needed to slow down the aging process itself.
