Let's Talk About Food Preparations!
Why You Should Wash Fresh
Produce With Alkaline Water
Fresh produce is best enjoyed in its natural state, and alkaline water may
just be the best kind of water you can use when washing them.
Regular tap water is a good medium for cleaning f ruits and vegetables,
but they don’t clear up all of the residues! Alkaline water is more effective,
as it works to remove pesticides, which are acidic, as well as clear away
residues of herbicides.
Alkaline water also helps combat whatever acid residues are left on the
surface of the produce.
The alkalizing properties of alkaline water work best on produce, as it
neutralizes the acidity in many commercially used pesticides. Alkaline
hydrolysis occurs when pesticides come in contact with alkaline water,
which causes degradation in the pesticides.
What Is Alkaline Hydrolysis? A chemical reaction in which an alkaline
material is used to dissolve and dispose of organic matter. In washing
produce, alkaline conditions degrade pesticide into their inactive, and
non-toxic forms.
How should fruits and vegetables be washed?
Washing will help remove bacteria, including E.coli, f rom the surface of
f ruit and vegetables.
Most of the bacteria will be in the soil attached to the produce. Washing to
remove any soil is, therefore, particularly important.
When you wash vegetables, wash them with water with at least pH11,
start with the least soiled items first and give each of them a final rinse.
Washing loose produce is particularly important as it tends to have more
soil attached to it than pre-packaged f ruit and vegetables.
It is always advisable to wash all f ruit and vegetables before you eat them
to ensure they are clean and to help remove bacteria f rom the outside.
What Is the Easiest Way to Prepare Alkaline
Water for Fresh Produce?
Water ionizers are easily attached to faucets to ionize water, separating
alkalized water f rom acidic water.
A single water ionizer can produce 70% alkalized water perfect for
drinking, washing f resh produce, and more. But, don’t discard the leftover
acidic water as it can also kill many types of bacteria that can be found
primarily on human skin.
It’s pretty much known to everyone that any fruit or vegetable should be
properly washed before consumption. The risk of food poisoning is a
serious consequence no one can risk.
Washing your f resh produce with alkalized water helps deal with pesky
pesticide residue.
Not for drinking.

How does bacteria get
onto vegetables?
Bacteria can get onto fruit and vegetables in several
ways. They may be present in water used for
irrigation, organic fertilizers, or droppings from birds and other
animals that go into fields.
Why are
there
problems with
vegetables?
There have been
several previous
outbreaks linked to
salad vegetables, which are consumed
raw.
However, illness linked to root
vegetables is much
less common
because most root vegetables are cooked
before being eaten.
There is always a risk of harmful bacteria on
loose vegetables
spreading to other
food if produce is not stored, washed and
cooked properly.

Is Washing Fresh Product Effective?
Washing f resh f ruits and vegetables is effective at removing not only
harmful bacteria, but also pesticides. But, there’s not one universal way of
washing for each and every f ruit and vegetable.
Washing f ruits and vegetables under running water is far more effective
than simply dunking them into some water. This is because bacteria will
just float around and cling again to the produce when you pick them back
out, while running water f lushes them away and forces them down the
drain.
Peeling and scrubbing produce, such as potatoes, cleans them best,
while soft fruits, like peaches, requires a gentler approach. Waxy produce
requires a more thorough scrubbing, as pesticides leave residue under-
neath the wax.
Using dish soap, bleach, and other cleaners is also not ideal for washing
f ruits and vegetables. Produce, unlike dishes, have pores that can absorb
and trap soap.

Checking the Health Claims https://www.webmd.com/diet/what-is-alkaline-water#1
“Alkaline water enthusiasts claim that its increased hydrogen provides greater hydration than regular water. Water that is more
alkaline supposedly reduces acid in the bloodstream and improves metabolism, increases energy, slows aging, improves
digestion, and reduces bone loss.”
https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/313681.php#the-alkaline-diet
A review published in the Journal of Env ironmental and Public Health concluded that an alkaline diet may have some benefits.
“There are a few studies that suggest alkaline water might be helpful for certain conditions. For example, a 2012 study found
that drinking naturally carbonated artesian -well alkaline water with a pH of 8.8 may help deactivate pepsin, the main enzyme
that causes acid reflux. Another study suggested that drink ing alkaline ionized water may have benefits for people with high
blood pressure, diabetes, and high cholesterol.”
