Alkaline water ionizers are cheaper than heart attacks For years, medical experts have recommended a wide range of diets, foods, supplements, and medicines as well as exercise and other lifestyle changes to maintain a healthy heart. Interestingly, there has been nothing said about the effect of the water we drink on heart health, and studies show that water may have a significant impact on hearth health. A study published by The Johns Hopkins University School of Hygiene and Public Health in 1997 examined the role of magnesium in preventing Ischemic Heart Disease – loss of blood flow to the heart – and found that adequate magnesium intake... read more >>

A simple at-home test can tell you a lot Chronic metabolic acidosis has been blamed for many health problems such as arthritis, cancer, diabetes and more. Many health experts recommend an alkaline diet to correct metabolic acidosis and maintain good health. The first step to correcting acidosis is to find out if you have it, a simple test that you can do at home can indicate whether or not you should be concerned with acidosis. Home Test for Acidosis According to Dr. Russell Jaffe, a simple test for metabolic acidosis is to check the pH of your urine first thing in the morning. Measuring the pH of the first morning urination is a “surprisingly... read more >>

Signs of Dehydration   If you are experiencing these symptoms on a regular basis - you are dehydrated! If you feel thirsty, you are already dehydrated, but even when you don’t feel thirsty, you can still be dehydrated.

Unsafe water - Coming to a tap near you Budget cuts proposed by congressional committees in the House of Representatives are expected to strip nearly a billion dollars from EPA programs that provide low interest loans to water authorities seeking to repair or upgrade water facilities. Public health officials expect the cuts to be devastating, they will expose millions of Americans to contamination that will sicken many people and contribute to cancer and other public health problems. The funny thing is, the proposed budget cuts are not expected to save the Federal Government any money! Both programs being cut primarily make loans to municipalities... read more >>

Maintaining an alkaline balance is key to good health Many health experts tout the benefits of eating alkaline foods and drinking alkaline water for maintaining a healthy pH balance in the body. Misinformed skeptics however, try to cast doubt on the benefits of alkalinity by pointing out that the acidic environment in the stomach neutralizes alkaline substances, but as usual the skeptics are wrong. Acid to Digest, Alkaline to Absorb The stomach uses acidity to break down food, the acid in the stomach mixes with the broken down food to produce a substance called chyme, which then passes into the small intestine. Keep in mind that the stomach primarily... read more >>

LOL Cat is in UR glass drinking UR water Our modern lifestyle puts a lot of stress on our bodies, the food we eat, the water we drink, and even the air we breathe can all contribute to the damage that industrialized living inflicts upon us. The stresses of modern life serve to increase the overall acidic load of the body, resulting in metabolic acidosis which destroys tissues in the body by oxidizing them. Many people take antioxidant supplements and eat antioxidant rich food to counteract oxidization in the body, but they are missing another important source of antioxidants – antioxidant water. Bottled Water can be Toxic! In an effort to... read more >>

GOP proves yet again that it does not care about the people of Wisconsin Republicans in both houses of the Wisconsin legislature have introduced bills that would repeal a Department of Natural Resources rule which requires municipalities to disinfect drinking water supplies. Approximately 12 percent of the state’s municipalities do not disinfect their water supplies currently. Rep. Erik Severson R-Osceola, one of the bill’s sponsors, argues that there is no problem if the people aren’t complaining “When people in an area are not complaining about the drinking water, the water is good.” Studies Show Increasing Risks Mark Borchadt,... read more >>

Bottled water is less regulated than tap water If you think bottled water is cleaner or healthier than tap water, think again. A 2011 study from the Environmental Working Group says filtered tap water is safer than bottled water. Many bottled water labels depict natural images which have nothing to do with the source of the water inside. The wholesome images conveyed by the labels fail to provide basic information about the source and purification of the water inside. EWG evaluated 173 brands of bottled water for transparency, which is a measure of how well the brands disclose the source and purity of their water. More than half of the brands... read more >>

A method for extracting natural gas from shale formations originally developed by the Halliburton Corporation has come under fire for, among other things, making tap water flammable. Tap water is made flammable by high concentrations of methane gas dissolved in it. The process, also known as hydraulic fracturing, consists of mixing millions of gallons of local drinking water with diesel fuel and other toxic chemicals and then forcing it into shale formations under immense pressure to fracture the rock and release trapped pockets of natural gas. Congress Acted to Exempt Fracking from Environmental Laws Former CEO of Halliburton, then Vice President... read more >>
