I am not
completely against bottled water – it serves a purpose at times. But bottled
water isn’t nearly as good for you as their big marketing firms would have you
believe. I have talked about the environmental impact water bottles have here,
but today we are going to talk about the pH levels of 20 different brands of
bottled water.
Bottled Water
Of the
20 brands, a whopping 13 of them were too acidic for healthy, every day
consumption. Here’s how they broke down:
Wal-Mart distilled water – 5
Wal-Mart drinking water – 4.5
Wal-Mart
spring water – 7
Gerber Pure water – 6.5
Nestle Pure Life – 6.5
Ice Mountain – 6
Smart Water – 6
Aquafina – 5
Evian
– 7
Essentia
– 9
Function Water – 6.5
Super
Chill 7.5
Absopure
– 7.5
Fiji – 7
Evamore
– 8
Penta – 4
Poland Spring Water – 5.8
Dasani – 4.5
Voss – 6
Eternal
– 7
Here is the video I made showing
the testing each of these brands of water.
Reasons
I Avoid Bottled Water
1.The
petroleum-based bottles have been shown to leach chemicals into the water.
2.So
few bottles of water are recycled and billions end up in the landfill annually.
3. It
has been estimated that it takes the equivalent of 17 million barrels of oil to
manufacture the bottles used annually, which doesn’t include transportation to
distribute the bottles. It also takes 3 times the water than it does for each
bottle. So a 20 ounce bottle of water requires 60 ounces of water to produce,
which includes the water it takes to fill the bottle.
I highly
recommend getting an electric water ionizer or minimally the WellBlue water
pitcher. Both will give you alkaline water that is very healthy for you and
your family.
Ok, so there are a several different ways to make alkaline
water at home, but not all are the same. Some are better than others, and some
are not recommended AT ALL.
In this blog I will give a detailed analysis of each method
of creating filtered water with the pros and cons of each.
8 Ways of Changing the PH of Your Water
1.Lemons and limes
2.Baking soda
3.pH drops
4.Brita filters (or similar store-bought filters)
5.Water distillers
6.Reverse osmosis filters
7.Electronic water ionizers
Lemons and Limes
Adding either of these fresh fruit juices has great health
benefits, but I wouldn’t rely on this method for my sole source of alkaline
water. Lemons and limes make the water acidic, but the after digestion the resultant pH is alkaline. It is refreshing first thing in the morning and can jump start your
metabolism. However, it does not have all of the same qualities alkaline water
does and can’t be considered a true alkaline water.
Baking soda
Baking soda is used to make alkaline water, as I have shown in this YouTube video, but baking soda is most
certainly not a viable replacement for true alkaline water. For one, it is
horrible to drink. Secondly, the salt content isn’t an option for people with
high blood pressure, predisposition to water retention and swelling, and other
health issues.
While baking soda can raise the pH of the water, it doesn’t
increase the ORP of the water or add the
other alkaline minerals you get from
true alkaline water.
PH Drops
There are various brands of pH drops, which can alkalize water, raise the pH of the water, a bit. But, they are expensive and I would only suggest them if you don’t have access to a water ionizer. The reason I don't suggest them is that these drops don’t provide the antioxidant property one gets from an alkaline water ionizer. So, while these are
great on the go, I don’t recommend them as your only source of alkaline water.
Brita Water Filter (and similar store-bought filters)
I don’t recommend these filters. Some filters have actually been found to lower the pH of the water, or make it more acidic, which is NOT what you want. They can also be quite costly, having to replace the filters very few weeks, depending on water consumption.
If you want a water
pitcher that will raise the pH of your water and lightly ionize it, check out
the Alkaline Plus PH Ionizer Pitcher I offer here. After testing many brands of alkaline water pitchers I chose this one, because I found it to be the most effective one.
Water Distillers
Distilled water is boiled, killing any bacteria or viruses,
and then vaporized to separate out all impurities. The pure water vapor is then
condensed back into water. While the heavy metals, chlorine and most other impurities
are removed, so are the alkalizing minerals. This leaves us with an acidic
water, which it not desirable. I don’t recommend this type of water for regular
consumption. Eventually if you continue over a long period to drink water that is void of all minerals your bones and joints can become robbed of their hard-earned alkaline minerals. You don't want to do that.
Reverse Osmosis Water
I have talked about RO (and distilled) waterbefore, and I don’t recommend it, unless it has a re-mineralization feature. Here are two of my earlier articles:
An RO membrane forces the water through a
fine mesh that filters out all minerals, even the good ones. This means that all alkalizing
minerals are removed by a reverse osmosis machine. This de-mineralized water is actually bad for you. You need these minerals for innumerable functions of your body.
So here we are at THE best way to provide yourself and your
family with alkaline water. I have researched, written about, discussed and
broadly promoted alkaline water ionizers. No other water surpasses alkaline ionized
water. From the micro-clustered water molecules that are far easier for your
cells to absorb, to the antioxidant properties hard at work ridding your body
of free radicals, to the high pH helping to alkalize your body, this is hands
down the most beneficial water you can consume.
If you truly want to start your family and yourself on a
healthier path, look no further than in your kitchen, starting with your
kitchen sink. Check out our water ionizers here. There’s one for every budget
and we even have refurbished units. And, as always, our 60-day money-back guarantee will let you try a quality ionizer, worry free. But, I can almost
guarantee you won’t want to return it.
