It is important to keep in mind that your skin is actually your largest organ and it has several vital functions. One function is to provide a barrier between your internal cells and
your environment to block exposure to potentially deadly invaders. Another function is
as an excretory organ. When normal channels of excretion are either blocked or overburdened the body will transport excess toxic substances out through the skin. As the
membranes of skin cells become highly oxidized normal functions are compromised and
the result is a breakout of acne, rashes, eczema or even infection.
One of the most common assaults to the skin comes in the form of soap. In the same
way that soap creates a film on your tub or shower, it creates a film on your skin. This
film increases the rate of oxidation in 2 separate ways.
First it creates a dramatic imbalance in the pH of the skin. The skin, because it functions as a barrier, needs to be slightly acid ic- pH 4-6. Soap is very alkaline. So washing with soap begins to create an imbalance in the skin's proper pH. Secondly, bar soap always contains a chemical to saponify the fats and cause them to become both emulsified and then hard. Typically lye is the chemical of choice. Lye increases oxidation of the skin and at the same time upsets the normal pH.
A better choice for washing the skin is an organic liquid body wash free of sodium laurel or laureth sulfates, parabens and any petroleum products.
Always look for lotions and creams that do NOT contain parabens or petroleum products. These are known hormone disruptors and anything you put on your skin is transported into your body!
Now, you can have the best water with the right pH for your skin just by using our Beauty Water from your machine straight from home! No more worries about chlorine, impurities or other added chemicals that could potentially harm your skin and health.

Constipation is a common problem among people all over the world. It is a serious
issue, just think about the fact that our intestines absorb the nutrients our body
needs for survival. When the intestines are clogged, our body can't reach nutrients
and vitamins which get wasted. A car without gas isn't going anywhere!
A body without nutrients is not a happy body, and it will start telling you about
it!
What Causes Constipation?
Mucus plaque (created by animal protein, cheese and other dairy, alcohol, refined
and processed foods, saturated fats, drugs, artificial additives and chemicals)
sticks to the wall of your colon and makes the opening of the colon wall smaller,
creating constipation! You might think that your colon is clear, but the space can
actually be thin as a pencil.
Making Your Decision:
Is a clogged colon really a big threat? Is it necessary to go through a cleanse
or can the body take care of that by itself? You have to find your answer to these
questions.
The only cleanser we recommend is KangenTM water. It's an economical,
environmental friendly and safe way to make cleansing a natural part of your life.

There are several benefits of Kangen alkaline water. An individual can use alkaline ionized water at home for various purposes. Among others these include household cleaning, cooking, personal care, pet care. Kangen water contains also several elements like sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium. Kangen ionized water retains useful elements after filtration, unlike other filtration systems, which filter out even the most essential minerals.
Five types of Kangen alkaline water
There are five types of Kangen water, which allow an individual to choose natural solutions for cleaning and well-being in the household. With the Kangen water machine one can enjoy a wide variety of options, which include freshening and livening of plants, cooking a meal, cleaning a stubborn stain and creating pleasant fragrance. There are five ionized water sorts produced by Kangen. These include:
1. Strong Kangen water for cleaning
2. Kangen water for drinking and cooking
3. Kangen neutral water for making baby food and taking medicines
4. Kangen acidic water for beauty care and gentle cleaning
5. Kangen strong acidic water, which has disinfectant properties
Some other Kangen alkaline water benefits are the following:
Microclustering
Some studies have shown that alkaline water contains microclusters or exceptionally small water molecules.
Hydration and drinking
Alkaline drinking water increases body hydration, because it has a better taste and superior mouth feel. The body readily absorbs the water, and it reduces the bloated feeling caused by drinking water.
Free radical minimization
It is known that alkalized water supports and promotes the wellness and health of all the body organs. It is determined by its anti-oxidant, free radical scavenging properties. It is well known that these anti-oxidants are reducing the effects caused by free radicals like cancer and heart attacks. Free radicals are known to attack healthy cells due to their aggressive chemical nature, thus causing life-threatening ailments like cancer and heart attacks.
Detoxification
As a universal solvent, water is readily absorbed in human body in order to expel toxins and waste products. Kangen alkaline water has negative oxidation -reduction potential, which aids in free radical’s neutralization and hydration of the body´s organs and tissues.
Longevity
Scientific benefits of purified water include also support of wellness and longevity. Natural benefits of taking water are increased through alkalinity. It reduces degenerative diseases by inhibiting aging process while strengthening the immune system. When alkalinity is attained, wellness and physiological benefits of water are achieved.
Acidic water can be used for personal hygiene, general cleaning purposes, and it is environmentally friendly.
Personal hygiene
In Asia, acidic water is referred as a Beauty water and can be used effectively as an external cleaning agent, e.g. for bathing and cleansing.
General cleaning purposes
Most manufacturers have created cleaning machines, e.g. floor cleaners, which use the strong, acidic water as the only cleaning agent. Swimming pool cleaners have also shifted from using harsh chlorine agents to acidic water to keep the swimming pools clean.
Environmentally friendly
Acidic Ionized water is currently being used in many institutions and other enterprises due to low pollution potential. Content of phosphates and other common pollutants is low; therefore it is an environmentally friendly mean for cleaning.
Finally, Kangen alkaline water is very simply to use: water-supply pipe of Kangen water machine fits on the water faucet without taking up much space and requires almost no maintenance, except replacement water filters time to time. In addition, it is much cheaper than buying bottled water.

This woman lives in a small town in Washington state and
she was diagnosed with breast cancer in the summer of 2008. She
received the news shortly after her younger brother passing
away following his fight with cancer.
Her oncologist recommended a partial mastectomy, which was performed successfully in September 2008.
The oncologist schedued my friend to begin chemotherapy in December
2008 as a precaution. The protocol was for her to receive 6 treatments
at two week intervals. Two weeks prior to commencing chemo, her
oncologist prescribed pills to control nausea. My friend chose
to forego the pills. She decided she would drink alkaline ionized water
and eat a strict alkaline diet as long as her oncologist didn’t
object. Her oncologist had never heard of alkaline water, but had no
objections to her trying “her water”, as she didn’t see how it could
hurt.
She began eating her fruits and vegetables and drinking the water
right away. She started out drinking water at a pH level of 8.0 and
increased it to 9.5 over the duration of her chemo treatments. My
friend drank her body weight in ounces each day, which is double the
recommended amount for a healthy person to replace the liquids that the
body naturally uses each day.
My friend lost her hair in the first two weeks as expected and it
didn’t seem to phase her one bit as she had her wigs ready and waiting.
She actually had fun with her ”new me” looks. Now to the good part.
She didn’t experience any other symptoms of chemo treatment during her
entire program and she never missed a day of work. The staff in the
oncology department and other patients that were receiving treatment at
the same time were amazed at how well she sailed through chemotherapy. During and after the chemotherapy, she didn’t miss a day of work, or as
she describes it “a day of life”.
Radiation treatments followed her chemotherapy and were scheduled
for 38 straight days. During herradiation program, she
experienced significant discomfort due to thinning of the skin on her
breast. The doctors prescribed antibiotic cream, but it wasn’t helping
and she had to suspend treatment. My friend decided to try using acidic
water from her water ionizer as a mild antiseptic. The acidic water
cleared up the problem completely in three days, which allowed her to
resume her treatment regimen.
The story gets better. My friend ended up placing a water ionizer in
the oncology department at the hospital where she received her cancer
treatments. Today, most of the staff in the department drink the water
everyday at work, including 2 of the oncologists.
The story gets better once again from my persective, because I’m a
huge fan of water ionizers. My friend has helped educate at least two
thousand families about the the benefits of the water over the past
couple of years. She loves what she does and is always willing to share
her story, and the stories of the people she has helped with the
water. I’m proud to call her my friend.

health care issues.
Skin diseases like eczema have no known cure and many a times, people resort to taking steroid based drugs to temporarily alleviate their symptoms. However, we all know that long term use on steroid could potentially damage our health. And besides, it is not really healing if the condition relapses when people are off the drugs, does it?
The Kangen water has such amazing properties that could potentially help your skin disease without the need to rely on drugs and such. For instance, people who drank Kangen Water daily, and soak their affected skin (in this case-feet) with Strong Acidic Water, pH level of 2.5 and have seen a great improvement on their condition after 2 weeks.
We always need to look for the cause of the problem, which most often comes from within our body itself-the cells. Therefore, we need to start cleansing our body from the constant pollutants that we put into our body, whether through the air we breathe, the food we eat, and even the water we drink.
Start alkalizing your body today with our Kangen Water, and drink your way to better health!

Now that we all know that drinking Kangen water is beneficial to our body. But what about our plants? What kind of water should they be drinking/watered with? Check out our few tips to improve your garden!
It turns out, different plants have different preferences in pH for water and soil, and the water you use will have a big impact on your plant health and growth. Also, the pH of your soil will affect which water you should use, as soil pH can range widely. Here is a general list of the plants that thrive in slightly alkaline, neutral, and slightly acidic water and soil:
Plants that Prefer Slightly Alkaline Kangen Water® (pH 8.5 – 9.5)
Asparagus, beets, cabbage, cauliflower, celery, carrots, mushrooms, parsley, geraniums, irises, hydrangeas (for pink blooms), and lilacs. Hydrangeas are a rare plant, as the pH of your water will change the color of the blooms.
Plants that Prefer Slightly Acidic Water (pH 4.0 – 6.0)
Rhododendrons, begonias, azaleas, heathers, hydrangeas (for blue blooms), peanuts, cucumbers, potatoes, chilli peppers, eggplant, garlic, chives, artichoke, tomatoes, and most berries. Roses grow most vibrantly with pH 5.5 – 6.5, so you may want to experiment with Slightly Acidic Water 6.0 and Neutral Water to see which one yields the healthiest roses with your particular soil.
Plants that Prefer Neutral Water (pH 7.0)
Spinach, parsnips, dahlias, chrysanthemums, brussels sprouts, sweet peas, broccoli, asparagus, cantaloupe, kiwi, mint, lettuce, onions, bell peppers, and tulips.
No matter which Enagic® Water you choose for your garden, you can have peace of mind that your plants will be healthy with clean, high-quality water. And think of how delicious your fruits and vegetables will taste after they’ve been watered with your Enagic® water ionizing machine, instead of chlorinated tap water.

There are many reasons why and how Kangen water can be so beneficial for our health and this is one of it: Let us introduce to you a well-known biochemist who wrote an article and won the became the Nobel Prize winner in 1931. His name was Otto Heinrich Warburg. He was also nominated for an unprecedented three times for the Nobel prize for 3 separate achievements. [His great work involved writing about "oxygen's relationship to the pH of cancer cells' internal environments. Since fermentation was a major metabolic pathway of cancer cells, Warburg reported cancer cells maintain a lower pH, as low as 6.0, due to lactic acid production and elevated CO2. He firmly believed there was a direct relationship between pH and oxygen."
Futhermore, he also mentioned that "Cancer, above all other diseases, has countless secondary causes. But, even for cancer, there is only one prime cause. Summarized in a few words, the prime cause of cancer is the replacement of the respiration of oxygen in normal body cells by a fermentation of sugar."]
In the recent years, there has been an increase on the awareness on the importance of alkalinity/acidity in our body. Thus, with Dr.Otto's work, it has been proven that cancer cells thrive in an acidic environment and cannot survive in a a presence of high levels of oxygen. Therefore, the need to restore back the pH balance in our body is very important. Alkalizing our body through Kangen water does just that, plus many other benefits such as anti-oxidizing and microclustering. So its important to keep your body hydrated with the best water ionizer that you can get!

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

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 improvingelimination 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.

Comparative shortage of water first suppresses and eventually kills some aspects of the body.
Water is the main source of energy—it is the “cash flow” of the body.
Water generates electrical and magnetic energy inside each and every cell of the body – it provides the power to live.
Water is the bonding adhesive in the architectural design of the cell structure.
Water prevents DNA damage and makes its repair mechanisms more efficient – less abnormal DNA is made.
Water increases greatly the efficiency of the immune system in the bone marrow, where the immune system is formed – including its efficiency against cancer.
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.
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.
Water increases the body’s rate of absorption of essential substances in food.
Water is used to transport all substances inside the body.
Water increases the efficiency of red blood cells in collecting oxygen in the lungs.
When water reaches a cell, it brings the cell oxygen and takes the waste gases to the lungs for disposal.
Water clears toxic waste from different parts of the body and takes it to the liver and kidneys for disposal.
Water is the main lubricant in the joint spaces and helps prevent arthritis and back pain.
Water is used in the spinal discs to make them “shock-absorbing water cushions”.
Water is the best lubricating laxative and prevents constipation.
Water helps reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes.
Water prevents clogging of the arteries in the heart and the brain.
Water is essential for the body’s cooling (sweat) and heating (electrical) systems.
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

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.
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.

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.
