Why Drink Water with a High pH Level?

Posted by: hmills on Nov. 3, 2011

Ok, so we all know that water is very important and that we should be drinking a lot of it (Eight, eight ounce glasses a day like mother used to say) But why, specifically, should we be drinking water with a high pH level? What’s the big deal? What are the benefits compared to other waters? Depending on which type of water brands with high pH you choose will determine the benefits you get. For instance, the majority of high pH water on the store shelves is made with inorganic minerals that your body cannot process well. This means the benefits are not much different from drinking regular bottled water. On the other hand, if the high pH water is made with ionic and absorbable minerals (similar to the one in fruits and vegetables) then the benefits are plentiful. Biological processes within our body create acidic waste. And we usually decide to make it worse with a stressful, fast paced lifestyle filled with a lot of junk food and lack of hydration. Acidic bodies are the perfect environment for tons of diseases to grow and thrive in such as heart disease, diabetes, osteoporosis, high blood pressure and the list goes on forever! Water with ionic minerals and a high pH level will help the body minimize acidity. A healthier diet along with the right pH water may help prevent these diseases from attacking your body. In addition to keeping you healthy, hydrated, and detoxified, there are a ton of other smaller benefits that high pH level water with ionic minerals can help you with. It can make food taste better, help you lose weight and even clear up your skin. A high pH level 9.5 water with lots of ionic alkaline minerals (similar to the stuff that fruits and vegetables have) is the best kind of water. If you’re supposed to be eating your fruits and veggies everyday then, you should be drinking your water with ionic alkaline minerals with high pH level as well.
