Milk or Alkaline Water For Your Bones?

WHAT IS OSTEOPOROSIS?

Osteoporosis is a disease in which the bones become extremely porous and fragile. This can lead to fractures, especially of the spine, hip and wrist, although any bone in the body can be affected.

34 million Americans have a low bone density and may develop Osteoporosis. This number includes both women and men although the illness is mostly seen in women. Osteoporosis can develop at any age, especially if you suffer from any chronic disease like asthma or arthritis.

Osteoporosis is often called a "silent disease" since there are no clear symptoms. Many people don't even realize they've had osteoporosis for several years before being diagnosed with it. Their bones gradually get thinner until, one day, a fracture occurs.

The natural state of our cells are slightly alkaline. In order for you to function and remain healthy and alive, these cells must maintain alkalinity. The pH level of your blood absolutely must remain at 7.35 - 7.45.The cellular activity of the cell creates acid and this acid is what gives the cell energy and function. The acid waste is taken care of by the body that expel these acids naturally.

BUT, when we eat and drink too much acid forming foods, like animal protein, grains, dairy and alcohol, the body gets overloaded with acids and can't get rid of it all. When the body can't get rid of the excess acid, it temporarily stores the acid in the spaces around the cell (fat) believing that one day, the acid will be released into the blood to be removed.

The body knows that in order to balance the acid, it has to make the blood alkaline. How does it do that? When our mineral reserves are low the body takes calcium from our bones and releases it into the blood. This leads to something called "free calcium excess" which is what's behind osteoporosis and arthritis.

Some factors that is believed to add to the risk of developing osteoporosis:
  • Lack of exercise
  • High alcohol and caffeine intake (acidic)
  • Low lifetime calcium intake
  • Smoking
  • Some medicines can stop the body from absorbing calcium
  • Changes in hormone levels, especially women in menopause
  • Vitamin D deficiency
  • People that have family members suffering from osteoporosis
  • Anorexia nervosa
Knowledge is key! Learn as much as you can about osteoporosis. Consider talking to specialists and your doctor.
Prevention is much easier and better than curing osteoporosis. Treatment aims to reduce the rate of bone loss and the building of new bone.
  • Exercise, use your body!
  • Reduce coffee and alcohol intake
  • Reduce or even stop smoking cigarettes
  • Eat plenty of alkaline food
  • DRINK PLENTY OF ALKALINE WATER!
Changing your diet is often a difficult process. Luckily, advances in technology have delivered the ability to create extremely alkalized water with potent anti oxidizing properties.

Changing the water you drink is much easier than the food you enjoy! Although we don't recommend it as a substitute to eating more healthy, we certainly feel high alkaline water is a great step towards balancing your body.

The only water we recommend is Kangen water

Benefits of Kangen Water

There are 3 simple reasons why you need an
Alkaline Kangen water machine at home
:

  • To restore your body’s pH back to neutral (or about 7.4). A body with a neutral pH is a healthy body! If your blood’s pH lower than 6.8 it becomes acidic. An acidic body is a place where sickness and disease can easily develop. Drinking plenty of Alkalized water will maintain the pH of our bodies neutral, between a healthy range of 6.8 to 7.8, ideally 7.4. This neutral pH, not acidic-not too alkaline, prevents our immune system from malfunction or get weaker and disease to develop and keeps it strong and healthy!

  • Drinking plenty of alkaline-micro cluster water helps to keep the our bodies hydrated. Alkaline-micro-cluster water means that the water molecules are smaller than regular bottled water. Our bodies can easily and quickly absorbe those smaller molecules of water and keep it well hydrated.
    Drinking enough alkaline water also helps to detox by improving elimination through urination, transpiration and defecation. :-)

  • Alkaline-Kangen water machines produce a water that is highly anti-oxydant. Anti oxydants neutralize and combat free radicals that other wise cause damage and destruction to the cellular level on our bodies. This avoids aging, cancer, osteoporosis, chronic fatigue, promotes longevity and prevent many other health conditions cause by too many free radicals in our bodies.

20 Reasons Why Water Is Important For us


  1. Without water, nothing lives.
  2. Comparative shortage of water first suppresses and eventually kills some aspects of the body.
  3. Water is the main source of energy—it is the “cash flow” of the body.
  4. Water generates electrical and magnetic energy inside each and every cell of the body – it provides the power to live.
  5. Water is the bonding adhesive in the architectural design of the cell structure.
  6. Water prevents DNA damage and makes its repair mechanisms more efficient – less abnormal DNA is made.
  7. Water increases greatly the efficiency of the immune system in the bone marrow, where the immune system is formed – including its efficiency against cancer.
  8. Water is the main solvent for all foods, vitamins and minerals. It is used in the breakdown of food into smaller particles and their eventual metabolism and assimilation.
  9. Water energizes food, and food particles are then able to supply the body with this energy during digestion. This is why food without water has absolutely no energy value for the body.
  10. Water increases the body’s rate of absorption of essential substances in food.
  11. Water is used to transport all substances inside the body.
  12. Water increases the efficiency of red blood cells in collecting oxygen in the lungs.
  13. When water reaches a cell, it brings the cell oxygen and takes the waste gases to the lungs for disposal.
  14. Water clears toxic waste from different parts of the body and takes it to the liver and kidneys for disposal.
  15. Water is the main lubricant in the joint spaces and helps prevent arthritis and back pain.
  16. Water is used in the spinal discs to make them “shock-absorbing water cushions”.
  17. Water is the best lubricating laxative and prevents constipation.
  18. Water helps reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes.
  19. Water prevents clogging of the arteries in the heart and the brain.
  20. Water is essential for the body’s cooling (sweat) and heating (electrical) systems.

What is Kangen water?

What is Kangen Water?

Kangen water™ is a healthy, toxin free, high alkaline water that is full of antioxidants and it contains the minerals and calcium that is already in your tap water. In addition, even people who have never really enjoyed drinking water love it because it tastes delicious. 

"Kangen" water is created with everyday tap water that has been diverted through Enagic's Kangen water machine. The water is purified of all toxins, including chlorine and restructured through the process of ionization. The water comes out of the machine as high alkaline/antioxidant "Kangen" water. Enagic's special patented technology is unsurpassed by any other water ionization company available today. Some of the toxins removed are, mercury, chlorine, fluoride, arsenic, chromium, barium, cadmium and more. The drinking water that flows from Enagic's water ionizer machines produces 8.5 to 9.5 alkaline water. It also contains high levels of antioxidants in the form of free electrons and active hydrogen.

Kangen Possesses Quality of a Medical Device, Because it is One


This technology is actually approved and sold as a medical device in Japan. Kangen Water is a Japanese word for “return to origin” or “reduction” and although Kangen Water is relatively new to Malaysia, it has a huge history in Japan that actually dates back to the mid-1960’s when the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare approved this water for a variety of different ailments. It is not uncommon to find this technology in a number of commercial applications in dozens and dozens of hospitals and medical centers. 

Enagic is endorsed by the most prestigious non-profit organization of its kind: The Japanese Association of Preventive Medicine for Adult Diseases. What’s interesting here is this organization only endorses one product per industry. Enagic’s Kangen Water is the only water-related product that this non-profit organization has ever endorsed. When you look at how the Japanese look at healthcare versus how we look at it in Malaysia, it’s a whole different mindset. In Japan, they are very much into prevention. They’re not interested in putting Band-Aids on wounds; they want to find out what the underlying causes of those diseases and conditions are, and deal with them head-on. Here in Malaysia, we have been conditioned to accept that we can only treat symptoms. 

Enagic is certified by International Standards Organization 13485 for proof of licensing of Medical Device, have Medical Device Marketing Authorization by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare/Government of Japan and have a Proof of Endorsement Recognition by the Geriatric Disease Prevention Association. These licenses and certificates can count as assurance that you are receiving the highest-quality medical grade water ionizer that is available on the market. Other water ionizer brands do not have this kind of certification, and therefore they can not be trusted to the same extent that a certified company can.

Over 250 Japanese Hospitals use Kangen Water to treat patients
E.g:
  • Kyowa Hospital
  • Kitari Institute Medical Center
  • Showa University Hospital
  • Meiseki Hospital
  • Nara College of Medicine Hospital
  • Lida Hospital
  • Tokyo Women's College of Medicine Hospital
  • Hanabatake Hospital
  • and many others....

Where Has My Baby Skin Gone To?




Kangen Beauty Water ph5.0 - ph6.0

There has been extensive research studying the chemistry of the skin's outer layer since the late 20th century. More than a hundred years of medical studies have shown that the external layer of your skin is acidic, ranging from pH 4.4 to 5.9. This "acid mantle" is believed to act as a barrier, or protection, to block unwanted germs, bacteria, and other micro-organisms from entering your body. If you apply a neutral or alkaline substance to your skin, this acid mantle can be compromised.

Beauty Water (pH 6.0), one of the different types of water that the Kangen water device can produce, is a marvelous, gentle astringent for your skin that can help support the proper pH level of your acid mantle. Just by rinsing and washing your face with Beauty Water, instead of chlorinated tap water, you can enjoy clean, healthy skin every day.

Acid water with a pH from 5.0-6.0 is considered “weak acid water” that can be used:
  • as an astringent, effective for toning and firming the skin for a more youthful appearance
  • as an after-shave just after bathing or shaving, while pores are open
  • as a tonic added to your bath water
  • as a refreshing, toning spritz for your face and skin
  • in place of conditioner after shampooing. Reduces annoying tangles and brings out a radiant shine.
  • spray on children’s hair to add shine and reduce flyaways
  • for pet care: spray your pet with this water and brush afterwards to obtain soft and shiny fur.

Alkaline Foods Vs. Alkaline Water

Public recognition of the importance of eating an alkaline diet is growing quickly, but it still has a long way to go. The professionals in the nutrition industry understand the importance of eating a healthy diet because they are faced with the consequences of poor dietary choices of their patients every day. Even the public knows that eating your fruits and veggies is something we should all do, but many of us continue to ignore the warnings. 

Maybe the government should start to regulate the fast food industry in the same way that they have forced tobacco companies to put warnings on their packaging, and stopped them from advertising. Can you imagine Ronald McDonald with a sign around his neck informing us that eating a Big Mac and fries increases the risk of getting arthritis or diabetes or cancer?

Why is eating a healthy diet important?
Food and beverages provide fuel for our bodies. Humans are omnivores, which means that our digestive systems can break down and absorb the nutrients from both plants and animals, and eliminate the waste products. Despite the fact that we are omnivores, our bodies work far more efficiently when we consume plant materials. The reason for this is that our bodies are meant to be slightly alkaline (a pH of about 7.3 to 7.4) and raw fruits, vegetables, legumes, nuts, and seeds are alkaline. Meats and dairy products and the myriad of fast foods that we consume are all acidic in varying degrees. The nutrients found in meats and dairy are also important to our nutritional uptake, but we can survive and in fact thrive on far less of the acidic foods and drinks than most of us consume. 

It is generally accepted in the health industry that the ideal diet should be 80% alkaline. Nowadays, average person consumes a diet of 97% acidic foods and beverages. That means our bodies are being fed the wrong fuel. While our bodies have an amazing capacity to process and eliminate excess acid, over time, our bodies become acidic and nasty health issues start happening. For many, the side effects begin with acid reflux and then proceed to diabetes. If left unchecked, the acidic state of our bodies becomes the breeding ground for cancer. It is well documented that cancer and other diseases can not survive in an alkaline environment. If you don’t believe me, or virtually every professional in the nutrition industry and you can afford ten minutes of your time, watch the video of a segment of The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer, who interviews Bill Clinton and the medical doctors who helped change or perhaps even saved his life. Mr. Clinton’s doctors say that a proper diet can prevent and even reverse major diseases such as heart disease, cancer, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol. You can watch the video here: 


Why does neglecting a proper diet increase our chances of getting sick?
We eat and drink because our bodies need fuel… or at least we should. Our society has created tasty treats which are advertised endlessly in an effort to convince us that we should eat the tasty products. Unfortunately, eating those tasty foods and drinks makes your body acidic. When you are acidic, your body has less ability to “reduce” the potentially damaging free oxygen in your body. Here is where it gets kind of tricky. Let me explain. 

Your body obviously needs oxygen to survive. However, up to 2% of the oxygen in your body can and does become free oxygen. That means that the oxygen atoms are unstable and are in search of electrons (negative charges) to make the oxygen stable. If your body doesn’t have negatively charged hydrogen available to provide the electron hungry oxygen atoms with electrons, the free oxygen atoms will scavenge healthy cells in your body. According to the world famous work of Dr. Hayashi, when negatively charged hydrogen is available in your body, it will combine with the free oxygen and convert it to harmless water. 

Others scholars such as Sang Whang and Dr. Robert Young claim that alkaline foods or beverages cause the cells in the stomach to produce acid (HCl or hydrochloric acid) and the bi-products of producing the acid are alkaline (negatively charged) buffers that enter the blood stream. 

Now matter which theory is correct, it is well known that creating negative charges in the body by consuming alkaline foods or beverages helps reduce the harmful effects of free oxygen, thereby preventing or reversing disease. 

Do alkaline foods and alkaline drinks do the same thing? Yes and No
Yes, both alkaline foods and alkaline beverages produce the negative charges that act as powerful and effective antioxidants that can counteract the harmful effects of free oxygen in your body. The food people use ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) as a measurement of the antioxidant capacity of a specif food. The water people use ORP (Oxidation Reduction Potential) to measure the antioxidant capability of water. I have done some preliminary research, but once again, I honestly don’t know how the two measures correlate. I hope to put more research into the comparison of ORAC and ORP in the future… just not today. 

No, food provides nutrients that water doesn’t provide, so you can’t live without food. On the other hand, water makes up 70% of your body and acts as your internal transportation system, so you can’t live without water. Survival is not possible without both food and water. 

Is either alkaline food or alkaline water better for you than the other?
I don’t think anyone can provide a definitive answer to the question. Both work and both contribute to maximizing your health. I think the right answer is a matter of personal choice. Some people love their “greens” and don’t care for most forms of processed or junk food. Other people love their junk food and find the taste of many “greens” unpleasant. People that eat properly don’t require alkaline water as much as people like who “cheat” more than we should. Therefore, I believe alkaline water is more important to people who take less of alkaline food. The fact that the water produced much faster and dramatic results.

Can your body survive without alkaline food or water?
Of course it can, as we see evidence of that every time we look at the people around us. However, we also see that as the world has moved away from wholesome nutritious food and water, people are getting sick. Whether we as individuals choose to do something about it up to each and every one of us.

Dr. Robert Young "pH Miracle for Weight Loss"

'In The pH Miracle, Dr Young may have discovered the true key to long life and health. It is simple and even spiritual in its approach and is founded on the truth your mother tried to give you: eat your vegetables!' James Redfield, author of The Celestine Prophecy 

 

Amazon.com Review

Building on the success of their first book, the best-selling The pH Miracle, in this book Dr. Young and his wife turn their attention to what is considered by many health experts as America’s number one health crisis—the growing numbers of people who are seriously overweight or obese. Contrary to other popular weight loss books, most notably those, such as The Atkins’ Diet and The South Beach Diet, that tout a low-carbohydrate approach to achieving weight loss, the Youngs maintain that the primary culprit behind excessive weight gain, as well as many other health problems, is a chronic state of acidity in the body (a pH value below 7.1). Shifting the body’s chemistry to a more alkaline pH, they maintain, will quickly and easily result in the loss of excess weight and the buildup of more lean muscle tissue. 

The goal outlined by the Youngs in this book is to replace dieting with a 12-week, seven-step program that is intended to not only rejuvenate the entire body by replacing current blood cells with blood cells "at the peak of health," but also to create an ongoing lifestyle that will permanently keep off the pounds that were shed during the 12-week period. In addition to a rich section on eating tips to create more alkalinity in the body (complete with an extensive list of recipes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus), the book also covers the importance of adequate water drinking, proper exercise, important nutritional supplements, learning how to manage thoughts and emotions that can contribute to acidity, goal-setting, and, for optimum results, a two-week cleansing program. In support of the program, the book also includes a collection of testimonials from people who have achieved significant weight loss on the program—further backed up by before-and-after photographs. With an increasing number of health professionals now emphasizing the importance of proper pH to overall health, the information this book presents is both timely and fairly easy to implement.

Want To Lose Weight But Not Getting Any Results?


"Underweight", "overweight", "obesity", and "morbid obesity" are all medical terms for when a person is greater or less than the healthy weight for a given height. These are serious conditions and should be treated as you would any other disease. 

It is not an issue of beauty; it is an issue of health.

Again, it is NOT an issue of beauty! The medical community states that an overweight or obese person is at greater risk for many diseases and illnesses.
  • Hypertension
  • Type 2 diabetes
  • Stroke
  • Sleep apnea
  • Cancer (colon, uterine, and breast)
  • Gallbladder disease
  • The list goes on...
When you feed your body more energy (calorie) than what your body uses in a day, the excess energy is stored as fat. The cause of this calorie imbalance may differ from one person to another:
  • Eating too much foods that are high in fat / energy
  • Eating foods that are acidic
  • Lack of physical activity
  • Psychological stress
  • Genetics (this does not mean you MUST be obese!)
When the body takes in excessive sums of acidic foods (average American diets), it needs to expel these acids to avoid damage to the body. This is a function of the liver and kidneys. Shallow breathing, lack of exercise, excessive alcohol, and other toxicity exposures can lead to liver stress and kidney malfunction. Then the acids in the body do not always get eliminated as they should. 

What is your body to do at this point?
If it can't eliminate the acids, then it has to store them.

Alkaline is the opposite of acid. Increasing your body's alkalinity aids the body's natural acid elimination functions, thus decreasing the stored acids / fat. If your body CAN get rid of these acid wastes, it will not store them! 

It is also important to note that during the process of storing these acids, the body uses minerals from other parts of your body to balance the effect of the stored acids. It will take potassium, magnesium and calcium from your bones in order to properly handle the stored acids (fat). Potassium and magnesium leaves your body while calcium goes into your blood; and now your bones are that much weaker.
By eliminating the causes of your excess weight or obesity, your body will become healthier and happier!
  • Exercise, use your body!
  • Find physical activities that you can enjoy!
  • Change your diet.
  • Review this list of common acid and alkaline foods.
Eat well-balanced meals containing less animal protein, cheese/dairy, alcohol, soda, refined/processed foods, saturated fats, artificial additives and chemicals.

Introduce more whole foods, vegetables and fruits, and alkaline grains into your daily diet. 

DRINK PLENTY OF ALKALINE WATER!

Changing your diet is often a difficult process. Luckily, advances in technology have delivered the ability to create extremely alkalized water with potent anti oxidizing properties.

Changing the water you drink is much easier than the food you enjoy! Although we don't recommend it as a substitute to eating more healthy, we certainly feel that high alkaline water is a great step towards balancing your body.
