Can Acidity In Your Body Be Reversed By Drinking Alkaline, Ionized Water?
Every one of your body fluids have different pH readings. Some are alkaline others acidic. One example is gastric acid. It needs to have a low pH (Acidic) or your food would not be digested. your blood is required to be slightly alkaline or you'll die.
Your body has wonderful systems to maintain these balances. So biologically speaking, the measurements cannot be changed by drinking alkaline water
Keeping the above in mind it would be interesting to see just what happens when you drink a glass of alkaline water. First it would enter your stomach where the stomach juices would strip it of it's alkalinity. From there it would pass into the large intestine where it would again get alkalized.
If we're on the subject of biology, we will discuss what would happen if you drank a glass of alkaline ionized water. Your very acidic gastric juices will strip the water of alkalinity. As the water enters your intestines, pancreatic juices will strip it of alkalinity. Exactly what happens? It becomes alkaline!
So any water you drink becomes alkaline anyway!
What is the lesson? Don't waste your hard earned cash on an alkaline water ionizer. It won't neutralize acid in your body. It can't!
Anti-Oxidant Properties?
Why is it that some believe alkaline water can cure cancer? According to the manufacturers of the ionizing machine this is due to the water becomes an anti-oxidant. Because of this it's going to take on surplus electrons which can then remove "free radicals".
You could almost believe it, except for the fact that the body already has a system in place to continually rid you of free radicals. Not only that, but it's millions of times more effective too!
All sounds very plausible, however it doesn't consider that the entire body already has devastatingly powerful natural anti-oxidants which are millions of times more effective!
A bit of a problem crops up here. Is alkaline ionized water REALLY an anti-oxidant anyway? Well, picture this: What does bleach do? It's oxidizing power strips colour from things like your clothes. It does this because it's an OXIDANT. Now did you know that alkaline water can bleach the colour from iodine? Yes it really can! it will do this because (wait for it... ) it is an OXIDANT!
Anti-oxidant that can cure cancer? I don't think so.

I love writing about alkalinity and pH related issues. Read my articles on the fraudulent claims of alkaline water benefits as well as whether the hugely popular pH balance diet really works.. Unique version for reprint here: Alkaline Water - Be Wary Of The Claims.
