The problem with so called "safe" tap water

Your local water system is required to test your drinking water for over 90 substances and organisms including heavy metals, VOCs and bacteria annually and report whether any have been found and at what levels.  Your municipal water quality report is required to tell you if your drinking water exceeded any federally mandated Maximum Contaminant Levels — MCLs.  If there are any violations of Federal MCL’s your local water authority is supposed to take measures to lower them.

Drinking Water Standards Loosely Enforced

In fiscal year 2010, 10% of all community water systems that provide drinking water violated at least one EPA standard. Many violations were due to elevated levels of coliform bacteria. High coliform levels can mean that the water has become contaminated with fecal matter, or it isn’t being adequately disinfected. When coliform levels are high, other bacteria, such as E. coli may be at elevated levels as well.

Because these violations are reported to the EPA annually, consumers can be exposed to dangerous bacteria like coliform for up to a year before the municipal treatment plant is required to do anything about it! Bacterial contamination in drinking water is an ongoing health problem. A UC Berkley study indicates that the elderly may face a 12% higher risk of stomach infection from drinking tap water – even if it meets Federal standards!

EPA Standards may not be enough

Some toxins in water may still pose a threat to your health even if your water meets EPA standards. Studies show that arsenic is be linked to many health problems, including developmental disorders, heart disease and the growth of tumors in the bladder, lungs, liver, skin, and kidneys.

Some public health experts now believe that arsenic is harmful below the current EPA standard of 10 parts per billion. According to Joshua W. Hamilton, Ph.D., a project leader in the Dartmouth Toxic Metals Superfund Research Program at Dartmouth College:

“As newer studies come out, they’re showing health problems at lower and lower doses [of arsenic], including some conditions, such as immune problems and cognitive effects in children, we’ve never associated with it before.”

Research performed by Hamilton’s lab on pregnant and lactating mice that were given drinking water containing arsenic at the current EPA standard revealed that their pups had growth defects and weakened immune systems.

Help is not on the way

Municipal water facilities are required to test their water quarterly, which means that violations which occur between tests will go unreported. Despite this, in 2009, 28% of all U.S. systems had at least one EPA rule violation. In some cases the state or the EPA may lend assistance or money to help, but money has become scarce as Federal budget cuts take effect.  Many communities are forced to wait for funding, and while they wait, the communities they serve continue to drink suspect water.

The EPA can take legal action or fine a water authority that won’t fix problems. However, enforcement is rare, in the past 10 years, only 349 water suppliers have had to pay a fine for violating the Safe Drinking Water Act.

According to Linda Birnbaum, Ph.D., director of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences problems are inevitable” “Although we probably have one of the safest drinking-water systems in the world, every year there are some breaks in the system.”

From 2007 – 2008, 36 bacterial outbreaks in drinking water supplies led to 4,128 cases of illness and three deaths. The total includes a salmonella outbreak in Colorado that infected 1,300 people. The worst case of public water contamination happened in 1993, in Milwaukee Wisconsin. An estimated 403,000 Milwaukee residents got sick — and 54 died — from water contaminated with the spore of cryptosporidium. The outbreak was caused by a treatment plant failed to properly treat water from Lake Michigan. Waterborne microbes are believed to cause an estimated 19.5 million illnesses annually in the U.S.

Your home could be part of the problem

Your own home can pollute your water as well! Older houses with lead pipes can leach lead into the water above the EPA cutoff of 15 parts per billion. Such levels may sound minuscule, but lead is so potent, that it can harm brain and nervous system development in fetuses and children even in tiny amounts. The body has no means of ridding itself of lead, so it can build up in your tissues over time.

ALWAYS allow the machine to clean itself after making strong acidic water to prevent this highly acidic substance from soaking on the plates. If this happens repeatedly without proper maintenance, the plates can eventually become damaged. (Source: Enagic® website)

Acidic Damage to Enagic^® Ionizer Plates

Enagic® ionizer plates – dark spots are exposed titanium! (Source: Enagic® website)

The Enagic® Kangen® machine needs an acid supplement to make strong Kangen® acid water, and if the machine is not cleaned properly, the plates can be stripped of their platinum coating, exposing the titanium surface underneath.

Hypochlorous Acid in Kangen^® Water?

Enagic® water ionizers require cleaning after being used to make strong acidic water. The machine must run a cleaning cycle, and then owners should run water through their machine and allow it to flush itself. The chemical used to make strong acid water is called Sodium Hypochlorite. Enagic® calls their additive chemical an “electrolysis enhancer”

The problem with Sodium Hypochlorite is that it breaks down to sodium and hypochlorous acid – commonly known as bleach! – When electrolyzed. Hypochlorous acid bleach is a weak acid, but over time, it can oxidize platinum and cause it to be stripped from the Enagic® machine’s plates.

Contaminated Kangen^® Water

If you don’t adequately flush an Enagic® ionizer after making strong acid water, you can end up with hypochlorous acid residue as well as oxidized platinum and titanium in your water! Enagic® owners should avoid making strong acid water entirely to minimize this risk.

LIFE Ionizer® plates have a 300% thicker coating of Platinum than the competition

The ionizers’ plates are the heart of the machine, and the thickness of the platinum coating on them is what determines how well they will hold up. LIFE Ionizers® 2012 mid and top of the line models now feature a .75 micron platinum coating, which is 300% thicker than competing ionizers. The platinum coating on LIFE’s 7700 and 9000 series models is so thick that LIFE guarantees them for life.

5 Reasons your water should be alkaline

The human body is 70% water, and when the body’s water reserves dry up or become polluted, it will wither just like a plant. So it’s no surprise that drinking alkaline water is one of the simplest ways to help ensure good health.

5 Healthy Alkaline Water Benefits

1. Antioxidant cleansing for your liver – Alkaline water has been shown to increase levels of two important antioxidants that protect the liver and help it work more efficiently.  The liver’s job is to detox the whole body, so it is important that it work as efficiently as possible.

2. Lower Cholesterol Levels – research has shown that drinking alkaline water can reduce your cholesterol level, while increasing the ratio of good (HDL) cholesterol to bad (LDL) cholesterol.

3. Weight Loss- Alkaline water can help the body rid itself of stored fatty acids (yes! Body fats are acidic!). Drinking water naturally suppresses the appetite and helps the body metabolize fat.

4. Hydration – Alkaline water has been shown to hydrate better than plain water. Drinking lots of water can also prevent cramps that happen due to mild dehydration in warmer weather.

5. Anti-Aging – Alkaline water’s antioxidant negative (–) ORP potential is able to neutralize free radicals that can accelerate aging.

The best way to hydrate with alkaline water

If you do get mildly dehydrated, don’t try to drink too quickly! The ideal way to hydrate is to drink small amounts of water frequently. Athletes can mix alkaline water with any electrolyte drink for high performance hydration.

It is possible to drink too much water! A good rule of thumb is to drink between six to eight glasses per day. Drink more if you consume sugary or caffeinated drinks, they can actually deplete your body of water. Weigh yourself before and after your workout. Remember the engineer’s saying, “a pint is a pound the world around”. One pint of water weighs one pound. Do the math to figure out how much extra water you need to drink.

Ready to get serious about hydration? Call our water ionizer experts today at (888) 688-8889 and get the facts about alkaline water hydration.

Philosoraptor ponders hydration

Yes! Drinking water when you are thirsty will make you feel less thirsty, thereby preventing dehydration.

But don’t tell that to the European Food Standards Authority (EFSA), because you can go to jail for two years for claiming that drinking water prevents dehydration.

What did it take to make it illegal in Europe to say that drinking water can prevent dehydration?

•     3 years of studies
•     21 Scientists
•     20  pieces of “official”correspondence
•     A vote to make it law by the European Union

What we don’t know is how many millions of Euros were wasted this folly of reason. We also don’t know what the EU suggests you drink instead of water when you are thirsty. The British Department for Health disputed the new law saying “Of course water hydrates. While we support the EU in preventing false claims about products, we need to exercise common sense as far as possible.”

 Water is the only substance in the world that can prevent dehydration

Professor Brian Ratcliff – spokesman for the European Nutrition Society – claims that one could remain hydrated without drinking water. What Dr. Ratcliff fails to say is that no matter what beverage you drink, the only part of that beverage that hydrates your body is the water in it. This is because the definition of hydration is: “the absorption of or combination with water”.

The EFSA ruling would be accurate if it referred to the body’s Hydration Status which is defined as: “The status of the fluid-electrolyte balance in the body.” This means that proper hydration depends on water and electrolytes. You get electrolytes – such as salt – from many sources, most Americans and Europeans get enough sodium in their diets to maintain their electrolyte levels.

Ionized Alkaline Mineral Water best for Hydration

Studies show that alkaline water can hydrate you better than plain water. What makes ionized alkaline mineral water hydrate so well?

• Microclustered – Smaller water molecule clusters are easier to absorb
• pH balanced – The intestines need alkaline balance (~8.3pH) to work efficiently
• Mineral content – Minerals are 30% easier for the body to absorb from water

If you are ready to get serious about hydration, a home water ionizer is your best bet. Water from a home ionizer is free of the chemical contaminants like BPA that you get from plastic. An ionizer is more economical too; you can finance a LIFE Ionizer for less than you would pay for bottled alkaline water.

The EPA allows more fluoride in water than is considered safe by health experts

Recent research on causes of heart disease has revealed a link between fluoride and coronary artery disease. The study, referred to as: Association of vascular fluoride uptake with vascular calcification and coronary artery disease. Researchers examined the arteries of 61 people for signs of calcification – artery hardening due to calcium, and fluoride absorption.

Connection between fluoride and heart disease described as “significant”

Fluoride was detected in the vascular walls (veins) of 96% of study participants, and calcification was observed in the vascular walls of 88% of participants. Study participants arteries also showed significant calcification and fluoride absorption.

Doctors who reviewed study participants’ medical histories noted that there was a very strong link between the presence of fluoride in artery walls and the history of heart disease. Researchers concluded that”An increased fluoride uptake in coronary arteries may be associated with an increased cardiovascular risk.”

Too much fluoride in public water supplies

Earlier this year, the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) jointly announced that they would be recommending that fluoride levels in drinking water be lowered because of a slow rise in fluorosis – fluoride poisoning that causes brittle bones, brain damage, and discolored teeth, among other health problems.

The HHS proposed lowering maximum allowable levels of fluoride in water to 0.7 mg/l. The EPA, which sets actually sets the standard, currently allows up to 4 mg/l of fluoride in water. This means that the EPA allows 5.71 times more fluoride in water supplies than the HHS actually deems safe! The EPA has said it is considering lowering the allowable level of fluoride in water, but has not officially acted yet.

Why the difference?

The EPA and the HHS have two separate goals when it comes to fluoride:

• HHS – (recommendation) Reduce tooth decay while minimizing the rate of fluorosis
• EPA – (Sets the standard) Maximum concentration of fluoride it considers safe

What this means: The EPA now believes its current standard (4 mg/l) is too high, but the EPA is not ready to set a new standard yet. Until the EPA sets a new standard, it is possible that the level of fluoride in your water could pose risks to your health.

How to reduce the level of fluoride in water

You can reduce the level of fluoride in your water by using filters designed to remove heavy metals from water. Why a heavy metals filter? Because fluoride is a metal! LIFE Ionizers offers a filter that is able to reduce fluoride levels in water to below detectable thresholds.

The LIFE Heavy Metal + Fluoride (AR-100F) filter protects you from harmful levels of arsenic, fluoride and other inorganic compounds (heavy metals). The AR-100F filter is designed to fit most standard filter housings, so you can easily add it to your existing filtration system. You can also order the AR-100F filter as part of a filtration system from LIFE Ionizers.

What's in a glass of alkaline water for your stomach? Great Health!

The pH of the stomach is normally acidic, with a pH level close to 2.5. The intestines pH is alkaline, around an 8.3 pH. Acidic drugs, foods and drink can upset the pH balance of the intestines and stomach, and when they do, the result is gastrointestinal problems such as heartburn, acid indigestion and ulcers.

Alkaline water has been shown to provide several benefits to the digestive tract. Water with an alkaline pH balance raises the pH of the stomach, helping to counter the excess acidity that leads to an upset stomach.  In the intestines, alkaline water provides the correct pH balance for rapid absorption, and helps lubricate the intestines as well.

Excess Acidity Produces Toxins in the Stomach

Acidity caused by the consumption of modern processed foods reduces your ability to break down and absorb food nutrients. When you are unable to absorb nutrients from it putrefies – rots – in the digestive tract. When food putrefies in your digestive tract, the result is gas. The odors produced by putrefaction within the digestive tract are caused by hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, histamines, indoles, phenols, and scatoles. These by-products of putrefaction are highly toxic, capable of damaging organs such as the liver, stimulating allergic reactions, and initiating or promoting tumor growth.

To protect you from putrefaction, the body releases leukocytes; these are immune system cells that neutralize toxins through oxidation. When this happens, free radicals are released, and the stomach’s pH balance is further tipped toward electron depletion – oxidation and free radical excess. The build-up of oxidants and free radicals in the digestive tract results in peripheral tissue damage leading to disease.

Why the best water for your stomach is alkaline

Ionized alkaline water contains minerals, including calcium, potassium and magnesium in their most natural, bio-available forms. These minerals are essential for various body structures and metabolic functions. When water is ionized, the minerals gain a negative electrical charge (electrons). The abundance of electrons is one of alkaline water’s most health-giving attributes – the excess electrons have the ability to help restore pH balance and fight aging.

By supplying an abundance of electrons to the digestive tract, through the use of alkaline water, putrefaction can be decreased and the resultant oxidative free radical damage also curtailed.

What happens when you drink alkaline water

One of the first benefits evident from drinking alkaline water is an improvement in digestion. Electron-rich alkaline water’s smaller cluster size increases the penetration and effectiveness of digestive juices, and decreases gas, bloating, digestive distress and stool odor.

Because it is rich in electrons, alkaline water is a natural antioxidant, it has up to 20 times the antioxidant potential of vitamin C. Ionized, alkaline water quickly permeates the body to help prevent oxidation of healthy cells by donating its abundant electrons to active oxygen. Thus, free radicals are neutralized.

Studies have shown that over 150 diseases, as well as premature aging, are related to the oxidation (robbing of electrons) of healthy cells by free radicals.

Other beverages, including distilled water can actually remove alkaline minerals such as calcium, magnesium, potassium or sodium from bones and other tissues. The loss of minerals contributes to conditions such as osteoporosis. Alkaline water increases the body’s stores of essential minerals that buffer acidity and free radicals

Why a Home Water Ionizer is the best way to get alkaline water

Alkaline water becomes an antioxidant when it is ionized. Increasing the pH of water by adding chemicals – such as baking soda – does not make antioxidant alkaline water. Alkaline water gains antioxidant power when it is ionized.

A home water ionizer uses electrical power to charge water with antioxidant potential. To get maximum antioxidant power in your water, choose an ionizer with a lot of power, such as the LIFE 9100 series.

Alkaline Water – A Preventive Strategy for Metabolic Syndrome

Research has shown that alkaline water may help you lower your cholesterolThe study followed 20 people that showed symptoms of Metabolic Syndrome for 8 weeks. The symptoms of Metabolic Syndrome  are:

• Obesity
• Insulin Resistance
• High Blood Pressure
• High Cholesterol

Doctors measured the cholesterol levels of the study participants at the beginning of the study to determine what their baseline cholesterol levels were. Study participants were required to drink five 400 ml bottles of alkaline water each day. The average consumption of alkaline water during the study was 1.5 L – 2.0 L.

Alkaline Water Reduced Bad Cholesterol, Increased Good Cholesterol

Cholesterol levels were tested after drinking alkaline water for four weeks, and again at eight weeks. At each interval, study participant’s cholesterol levels had improved.

Significant increase in HDL (good) cholesterol (m mol/L)

• Before drinking alkaline water:    1.2
• After drinking alkaline water        1.4

                                  15% Increase in good cholesterol

Large decrease in total cholesterol/HDL (Ratio)

• Before drinking alkaline water::    4.5:1
• After drinking alkaline water       : 3.9:1

                                  13% Decrease in ratio of bad cholesterol to good cholesterol

High level of Confidence in Results

The study reported a high level of confidence (95%) in the test results. This means that the researchers are 95% certain that drinking alkaline water produced the improved cholesterol levels in study participants.

Current smokers in the test showed some of the most substantial improvements in their cholesterol levels, suggesting that alkaline water may help reduce the health consequences of smoking. More research is needed to confirm this.

Study Conclusions

Researchers in this study concluded that alkaline water: “demonstrated improvement in the levels of oxidative stress markers associated with metabolic syndrome and boosted the body’s antioxidant

activity.”

Because of the positive effects of alkaline water on cholesterol levels and antioxidant benefits in the body, the study concluded that alkaline water: “represents a potentially novel therapeutic and preventive strategy for the treatment of metabolic syndrome.”

For people looking to improve their cholesterol levels, and improve their health with age-fighting antioxidants, drinking alkaline water may be the best health choice they ever make.

Study was the strongest proof yet of alkaline water's antioxidant benefit

Medical research has now proven that alkaline water provides antioxidant benefits in the body. Researchers from the University of Pennsylvania say that drinking alkaline water substantially increases levels antioxidants and reduces levels of free radicals in the body.

Alkaline water reduced metabolic risk factors

Drinking alkaline water was shown to reduce oxidative stress in the body that leads to the symptoms of Metabolic Syndrome including:

• Obesity
• Insulin Resistance
• High blood pressure
• High blood cholesterol

Significant increases in antioxidant levels

Participants in the study drank alkaline water for 8 weeks. During the study, researchers measured the change in antioxidant levels in the bloodstream of study participants. The improvement in antioxidant levels was astonishing!

• 39% Increase Superoxide Dismutase (SOD)
• 8% Improved HDL (good) cholesterol

Superoxide Dismutase – Powerful Antioxidant defends the body against premature aging

HDL Cholesterol – Good cholesterol that helps prevent arterial sclerosis, heart problems

Large decreases in free radicals

Researchers noted that the study participants had significantly lower levels of two harmful free radicals in their bodies after drinking alkaline water for 8 weeks:

• 43% Decrease – Thiobarbituric Acid (TBARS)
• 13% Lower LDL – (Bad) Cholesterol

Thiobarbituric Acid Reactive Substance (TBARS) – Measures oxidative stress – the ability of substances in the blood to damage human tissue and DNA

LDL Cholesterol – Collects on the walls of arteries leading to high blood pressure and heart disease

How to get antioxidants from alkaline water

The best way to get antioxidants from alkaline water is to make it yourself and drink it right away. Home water ionizers use electrical power to create an abundance of antioxidant molecules – called hydroxides – that give alkaline water its antioxidant properties. The antioxidant power of alkaline water is measured as negative oxidation reduction potential (–ORP). The –ORP of alkaline water begins to drop about 24 hours after you make it.

Alkaline Water helps detox your stomach, intestiines, and kidneys

Modern diet, stress, and pollution combine to take a tremendous toll on our bodies. Many foods drink, and drugs combine to tilt the body’s pH balance towards acidity, a medical condition known as metabolic acidosis. Many of these acidic substances are toxic as well, they poison the body. Alkaline water is a natural way to tilt the body’s pH balance back towards what is healthy and normal. A huge benefit of balancing the body’s pH with alkaline water is that the toxic acids stored in the body’s tissues become neutralized and expelled in a process called detoxification.

Why pH is Important

Metabolic acidosis – a condition where the body is burdened with excess acidity – results from the over-ingestion of acidic foods and drinks. The Standard American Diet (SAD) is believed to be the main cause of chronic metabolic acidosis. There are also certain metabolic diseases, like diabetes, that predispose the body to chronic metabolic acidosis. Digestion of acidic foods creates acidic byproducts which must be eliminated by the kidneys, thus producing highly acidic urine. This problem is further complicated by the ingestion of tap water, which itself has been found to be at best neutral or a pH of 7 and often acidic or below a pH of 7.

Liver Function pH Dependant

When the body is in a chronic state of metabolic acidosis, our liver detoxification mechanisms are compromised. The liver enzymes that are involved in detoxification are referred to as phase I and phase II detoxification liver enzymes. These enzymes are highly pH-sensitive and are responsible for the chemical bio-transformation of toxins into water-soluble metabolites for excretion in the urine. The detoxification function of liver enzymes is enhanced by alkalinizing the urine to a pH of 7.5 to as high as 8.3. This very process is performed every day in emergency rooms to accelerate the excretion of ingested poisons.

How Alkaline Water Detoxification Works

The way urine alkalinization works to detoxify the body is called ion trapping. When alkalinity in the kidneys is increased, the alkalinity acts like a magnet to acid wastes. Cells called nephrons act as filters in the kidneys, alkalinity enhances the ability of nephrons to trap acid wastes.

Most poisons and toxins are acidic and weak acids. By creating a more alkaline physiological environment in the body, a natural detoxification process occurs. Drinking alkaline water daily can greatly enhance the body’s ability to detoxify. Alkaline water is the perfect choice for daily detoxification because you have to drink water every day. You can provide your body with beneficial alkalinity simply by drinking 6-8 glasses of alkaline water daily.

If you live near a fracking well, chances are good that your water is fracked

If you live near a site where hydraulic fracturing is being used to extract natural gas, your drinking water is likely contaminated with hundreds of chemicals, all of them toxic. When a well is fracked, millions of gallons of fresh water is mixed with a toxic stew of chemicals. The now-toxic water is forced deep underground at high pressure, where it shatters a type of rock formation known as shale. Gas trapped underground can then be captured.

Unfortunately, the contaminated water used for fracking doesn’t stay underground. It seeps upwards, towards the surface, where it contaminates drinking water aquifers. To make matters worse, the fracking companies that use these chemicals are not required to disclose them to the public.

How does Fracking affect your drinking water?

Your water will be a fracked-up mix of many different toxic chemicals. Here are five of the most common:

• Alpha Particles (Radioactive)
• Alcohol
• Benzene
• Glycol
• Methane

Testing is necessary to find the exact mix of chemicals in your water, but the five listed here are the ones most commonly found around fracking sites.

How to filter fracked water

Because there is likely to be a mixture of toxic chemicals in fracked water, filtration used to treat it has to be effective against a wide range of chemicals, not just a few. Here are two methods that treat a wide range of chemicals:

• Charged Modified Composite Blend® – Broad spectrum filtration technology originally developed for NASA
• Reverse Osmosis – Membrane filter technology, effective but uses a lot of water

LIFE Ionizers® offers two filtration products that offer Charged Modified Composite Blend® technology. Our Dolphin Whole Home filtration system is designed to stop toxic chemicals before they enter your home water supply. The AR-1000 Super Filter is designed to replace filters in most existing home water filtration systems for homeowners who wish to upgrade their existing filtration system. LIFE also offers Reverse Osmosis systems designed for drinking water supplies.

Keep in mind; water softener systems do not protect you against fracking chemicals. Activated carbon and granular activated carbon filters also don’t work unless they are combined with other filter technology.

LIFE Ionizers® Charged Modified Composite Blend® technology reduces the levels of hundreds of chemicals found commonly in tap water to safe levels. LIFE’s Charged Modified Composite Blend® filter media is electrostatically charged, so it magnetically attracts and binds to toxic chemicals. Conventional filter media merely tries to block chemicals. LIFE’s Charged Modified Composite Blend® technology is truly better.
