Why is Alkaline Water unique?
Watch the picture just below to see a clue . . . .

Water is more miraculous than most people think . . .
and it has even more secrets . . .
it is even more miraculous than THAT!

It is estimated that at least 75% of Americans are dehydrated enough that it affects their health in a negative way. Many people interpret their "thirst" as hunger. In a University of Washington study, drinking one glass of water when feeling hungry stopped the hunger pangs in 98% of the dieters surveyed.

Virtually everyone in the U.S. has one or more toxic chemicals lodge in fatty tissue from drinking municipal treated tap water.

53 million Americans drink water from municipal water supplies containing potentially dangerous levels of chloro- and fluoro-chemicals, lead, fecal bacteria, as well as pesticides and other impurities associated with cancer and metabolic dysfunction. In order to sterilize tap water, chlorine is added to the water thus organic chloride and its derivatives will form in the running water.

Your body is, on average, 70% water:

  • Liver 90%
  • Brain 85%
  • Cells 85%
  • Blood 83%
  • Kidney 83%
  • Heart 79%
  • Lungs 79%
  • Muscle 76%
  • Spleen 76%
  • Intestine 75%
  • Skin 72%
  • Bone 35%
  • Body Fat 10%

The main cause of daytime fatigue is simply a lack of water.

Research shows that about 8-10 glasses of water a day may significantly ease back pain and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers.

If the average person drank at least 5 16oz. glasses of water a day (plain water not mixed) the risk of getting breast cancer is decreased by 79%, colon cancer by 45% and bladder cancer by 50%.

A person's minimal water requirements is half their body weight in ounces. For instance, a 200 pound person should drink at least 100 ounces of water, or about 3 quarts. Ideally, for optimum wellness, 1 quart (32 oz.) of water for every 30 lbs. of body weight. For a 200 pound person, this would be about 6.5 quarts.

Only a 2% drop in the amount of water in your water can bring on mental confusion such as short-term memory loss, being unable to focus and forgetting how to do simple math calculations.
