How to Make Alkaline WaterBy Alderin Ordell, Owner

If you Google search ionized water or water ionizers, you'll probably find a couple snippy pages that describes

ways of how to make alkaline water cheaply as a way of saying "you're a fool if you pay for a water ionizer."

These methods include adding lemons, Himalayan salt, and even baking soda to your water. Let's explore these

methods and determine if they really work.

How to Make Alkaline Water With LemonsI was actually shocked when I read this. Lemons are HIGHLY

acidic, about a 2.5 pH, several millions times more acidic

than your own blood (at a 7.3 pH). Yet a couple pages state

that adding a lemon to your drinking water makes it alkaline.

Of course it doesn't. One page clarified and said that your

body "reacts" with the lemon water and makes it alkaline as

you drink it. Again, this is very wrong.

Actually, what's happening is that the lemon water is so

acidic and so far away from anything your body wants to

consume that your body feels attacked, goes into survival mode, and floods your bloodstream with bicarbonates

to neutralize the acid attack. After the acid is neutralized, some of these bicarbonates remain, and if you test your

body with pH test drops, you might actually see a raise in you body pH.

That does NOT mean that you drank alkaline water that helped your body naturally raise it's pH. You attacked

your body and it rebuilt itself to a higher pH as a response to the attack. But if you do this regularly, you will

indeed damage your body. Your body's alkaline response to the extreme acid will diminish, and eventually your

body won't be able to ward off the attack.

So, is adding a lemon the best way how to make alkaline water? Certainly not.

How to Make Alkaline Water With Baking Soda and Himalayan SaltsAnother cheap ingredient that you can add to water to make it alkaline is baking soda. Better have a high

tolerance for sodium, though, because baking soda tastes like ocean water. Any benefit that is gained from

raising the alkalinity of the water is lost by the detrimental effect of consuming large quantities of sodium

regularly. High levels of sodium in your diet are linked to high blood pressure, diabetes, mood disorders, and

more. Need I say more?

Another not so cheap ingredient that people list in their ways of how to make alkaline water is Himalayan salts.

OK, so sodium is an alkaline mineral (like calcium or magnesium) and adding large amounts of it will raise the

pH of the water. But remove the name "Himalayan" and what you're left with is salt.

It amazes me how people fall for exotic names. They hear something out of the ordinary and immediately it

triggers an opening of their mind that makes them susceptible to believing the load of nonsense that's about to be

shoveled at them about how it's going to improve their health.

My barometer for determining the legitimacy of health claims from exotic sounding products is a government

sponsored website called www.pubmed.gov. Pubmed is a compilation of all of the published peer reviewed

studies that are available. So, just type in the name Himalayan salts at pubmed.gov and you'll find no studies.

That's right, there has been no research done to substantiate the health claims by those companies charging on

average $6 a pound and more for this salt. Some of the Himalayan salt products even had sleazy doctor's names

attached to them to give the appearance of legitimacy. What doctor would lend his name to a product that has

NO research to back it? A dishonest one, for sure.

How to Make Alkaline Water (that works!) With a Water IonizerA water ionizer is the only legitimate method in our exploration of how to make alkaline water. Just go to

www.pubmed.gov and search for electrolyzed water and you'll find forty YEARS worth of published peer

reviewed studies when those other methods didn't even have one. There are literally thousands of studies that

have been completed that demonstrate the benefits of ionized water, both alkaline and acidic. An EOS water

from www.waterforlifeusa.com makes BOTH alkaline and acidic ionized (electrolyzed) water.

Some of the established health benefits of ionized alkaline water is that is lowers oxidative stress levels in our

cells, which is free radical damage, meaning our cells get healthier. As our cells get healthier, virtually every

health condition and ailment that we face, whether diabetes, cancer, arthritis, depression, anxiety, sleep

problems, etc. will IMPROVE.

The reason why ionized, alkaline water is so effective is that, in our list of methods on how to make alkaline

water, only a water ionizer restore the antioxidants to your water. You can add all the salt, baking soda, alkaline

minerals, and lemons that you want and you'll never create a single antioxidant. A glass of ionized, alkaline water

is full of trillions of antioxidants, more than a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice, that will significantly

detoxify your body.

A water ionizer makes all of the antioxidants by using water electrolysis, which replicates the natural process of

the sun to create antioxidants in glacial stream and spring water. So, out of all of these methods of how to

make alkaline water, only a water ionizer makes water alkaline NATURALLY, the way mother nature would.

On top of that, only a water ionizer filters the water to 99.99% purity, getting rid of all of those nasty

contaminants like left over pesticides, pharmaceutical drugs, fluoride and chlorine.

So, when it comes to the various methods on how to make alkaline water, stick with an EOS water ionizer. It is

tested and proven and the health results are real! Visit www.waterforlifeusa.com to learn more.
