Why drink alkalised water?

The effects of PH levels within drinking water discussed by Freshly squeezed water

 

Our bodies should have a blood pH value of 7.36 to 7.44.

Due to our modern lifestyles and consumption of meats, dairy, coffee & processed sugars which create acid ash in the body, our bodies may become acidic over time.

Even the water we drink can be acidic adding to the body’s attempts to maintain its natural pH value.

Typical symptoms of acidic blood can include;

• Low energy
• Excess weight
• Poor digestion
• Aches & pains

Some experts go even further to suggest that an alkaline body might not allow a range of degenerative diseases including arthritis, osteoporosis and even cancer cells to form as readily as in an acidic body.

By combining a change in diet and drinking water with a pH value similar to the ideal blood value can lead to better health.

Understanding pH
pH is a method to measure the acid/alkaline value of a given substance. The chart below shows a typical range of Ph values, with 7 being neutral.

 

For example pH values;
Apple juice 2.9 – 3.3
Stomach acid 1.1 – 3.0
Anti- acid tablets 10.5
Household bleach 12.6
Reverse Osmosis water 5, 2 – 6.4 (without alkalising unit fitted)
Reverse Osmosis water7.5 (with alkalising unit fitted)*
