Useful Facts About Alkaline Water Los Angeles

By Jason Ward


The term alkaline is used in reference to the pH level. The pH is the number that gives measurement of the acidity or alkalinity of water. It is given on a scale of 1-14. Something with pH of 1 is said to be very acidic while that with 13 is the opposite. When it comes to alkaline water Los Angeles residents should know some facts about it.

Alkaline waters have pH levels higher than what people drink normally, with pH levels of 8 or 9. There is the general belief that drinking such waters neutralize acids found in the body. Normal drinking water has pH of approximately 7. Natural waters with alkaline features occur whenever such waters pass of springs or rocks and in the process pick up minerals. It is such kind of process that increases their alkalinity. In artificial cases, alkalinity is induced using ionizers.

There are a number of grocery stores from where one can get iodized waters. Also, one can get ionizers from large stores. There are however people who prefer to make alkaline water from home. The stuff used is lemon which is acidic but begins to become alkaline when squeezed into glass. The other option one can use is to add pH drops into the waters. For this process, it is recommended that one uses water that is distilled for the mixing.

There are a number of benefits of taking waters of pH above 7. Detoxification is one such benefit. This happens through the removal of normal acidic wastes that have accumulated over time. Also removed are toxins that have accumulated in the body from the environment and prescription drugs. Acids accumulating in the body lead to serious health conditions. Alkalinity will solve all this through neutralization of the acidity.

Higher pH of waters will act as antioxidants and this scavenge for free radicals and neutralize them. The mere fact that these waters are able to give free electrons implies they are able to effectively neutralize the free radicals and save the body from harm. When these waters are iodized, they seek free radicals before converting them into oxygen. This oxygen is used for producing energy.

The waters are believed to help in maximization of functions of the immune system. This will make it better prepared to fight disease. The body imbalance caused by diets that are highly acidic gets neutralized. This leads to breakdown of cells and eventually they will die. The immune system gets weakened because of that.

There has not been enough scientific evidence on whether alkalinity of waters for purposes of treatment actually works. There have been suggestions that most such claims are used by marketers to boost sales. However, drinking such waters is considered safe because it has minerals. Great caution should be taken when drinking artificially induced alkalinity.

There have been arguments on side effects of excessive alkalinity. In general, the human body will maintain its pH at about 7. Consistent taking of water with pH higher than 7 creates imbalance in the body. The system has to work much harder to bring things back to normal.
