Using an Alkalizer for a Healthier Drinking Water Straight from Your Tap
First of all, what is an Alkalizer?
Basically an alkalizer is an agent that is used to counteract or neutralize acidic environments. For example, when people take an Alka-Seltzer they do so in order to neutralize painful stomach acids. When an alkalizer is applied to water it becomes electrolyzed, producing water that is full of hydroxyl ions. This type of water is said to be alkaline or ionized water. There are a number of health benefits attributed to drinking ionized water.
What are the health benefits of applying an Alkalizer to tap water?
• Smoother Water that is More Hydrating
When tap water is run through an electrolysis process its large mineral clusters are changed into smaller clusters. These smaller clusters have greater solubility making them more hydrating. Smaller clusters also feel smoother to the palate.
• Ionized Water that is a Natural Antioxidant
Shortly after we slice an apple a slight, brownish discoloration appears. This is the visible damage free radicals do to the apples cells. We encounter free radicals in the air we breathe and their damage can be seen in our skin.
Free radicals also do damage to the insides of our bodies, which is why most health care professionals recommend eating antioxidant rich foods, supplements or powders. Ionized water has the added benefit of being a natural antioxidant.
• Balances the pH in our Bodies
Those in the scientific and medical communities acknowledge that illness and disease thrives in acidic environments and health is protected in alkaline environments. Applying an Alkalizer to tap water generates alkaline water creating the alkaline environment our bodies need to remain healthy.
