water....is it that important?

Why you should be drinking water everyday!



Why You Should Not Drink Soda

Before you drink another cola or soda, read this article, it may save your life!
Scientist have found that healthy people have body pH that are slightly alkaline, 7.1 to 7.5 pH. Seven on a pH scale is neutral. Any level below 7 is acidic, and any level above 7 is alkaline. Keep in mind that a drop in every point on the pH scale is 10 times more acid (i.e. from 7 to 6 is ten times, from 7 to 5 is 100 times etc.) From 7 - 2 is 100,000 times more acidic! Soda is in the acidic range of 2 pH.

Did you know that when our body pH is acidic, it promotes illness and poor health? Acidic pH level in human body fluids are prime environment for bacteria, virus, other undesirable menace and even cancer cells to grow.

While almost everything we do ,including our life style and our diets contributes to our body acidity, the long term effects of soda are devastating to our body. In fact it take 32 glasses ofalkaline water at a pH of 9 to neutralize acid from one 12 oz. cola or soda. When you drink sodas, the body will use its own stored alkaline buffers which are mainly calcium from the bones and DNA to raise the body's alkalinity levels, especially to maintain proper blood alkaline pH levels. Acidic blood levels can cause death!

Scientists and doctors have found tht over 150 degenerative diseases are linked to acidity, including cancer, diabetes, arthritis, heart disease, gall and kidney stones,osteoporosis, hypertension, memory loss and many more. All diseases thrive in an acidic, oxygen poor environment.

Acidity, sugars and artificial sweetners can shorten life. Acidosis, lack of nutrients (minerals and vitamins), poor diets and improper digestion contributes to most degenerative diseases. Doctors have found degenerative diseases like osteoporosis, diabetes, arthritis...etc., in younger age group than before.

So what can we do about it? Start with healthy habits! Develop a healthy habit of drinking water instead of soda, exercise and eat a healthy diet. Stay away from soda! It may not kill you today or even years from now, but when it is compounded it can kill you.

I have found Xooma's Xtreme X2O transform your water into a powerful alkaline beverage, which in turn assists the body in developing and maintaining a proper pH balance.An acidic body pH enviroment invites illness and poor health. However an alkaline body pH environment promotes health by eliminating toxins, bad bacteria and helping with the assimilation of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients

  1. Even bottled water is slightly acidic :( Ever hear of Kangen Water? Watched a demo on it and really want to give it try, but this X2O stuff may be a good alternative.
