Alkaline water is an agent for health. Today more than ever, the typical diet is loaded with acidifying foods and drinks. Soft drink consumption is prevalent and these drinks are extremely acidic. Convenience foods are predominately acidifying. The youth in this generation are inundated with dietary choices that lead to excessive acids accumulating in the body. Overweight, obesity, cancer and other conditions are partial evidence of the dietary patterns in today’s society. And it is no secret – most people seem to know – too much acid in our foods and too hard to solve the problem.
Alkaline water is a great solution to help change the pH balance in our body because water is such a significant portion of overall dietary consumption. Or at least it should be. With the body at 70% water, any significant change in overall body pH should best be achieved by changing the pH of the water consumed.
