Kathryn Wells wrote an article that you might find of interest about a restaurant that has recently introduced ionized alkaline water on their menu.  I have included excerpts instead of reproducing the entire article as a time saving measure.

The article  provides further evidence that the level of awareness of ionized water is taking off in California.  

 The fact that a restaurant has added the water to their menu is really encouraging to me, because restaurants are often the source of very acidic foods. 

While ionized water isn’t a cure-all for a bad diet, there is no denying that it does help.  My diet used to be disgraceful, and it is still not where I want it to be.  Despite my questionable eating habits, ionized water changed my life and is changing the lives of more and more people all the time. 

Take it away Kathryn:

The Roxy Restaurant Adds Ionizer to Drink Menu

Apart from more than quadrupling the square footage of his establishment, Naimi continues to expand his menu. One example of such an expansion is in plain view on his espresso bar. “People always ask me, what is that machine on your counter?” says Naimi. Roughly the size of a shoebox, with a brightly lit LED display and sleek silver and black housing, this machine looks like something out of a futuristic kitchen.

 

It isn’t just a healthy, delicious menu and hippy-Mediterranean décor, friendly staff and strategic location that have been Naimi’s recipe for success; it’s also that Naimi keeps an open mind about trying new things—like alkaline water from an ionizer—to meet the healthy demands of his guests. In this case, Naimi is offering purified alkaline drinking water to customers, a natural fit for Naimi’s forward-thinking, mostly-vegetarian clientele. Most of them have already heard about an ionizer, or they already understand the positive results from drinking alkaline water.

Naimi’s Introduction to the Ionizer Lifestyle

Naimi credits his first introduction to ionizers to his waitress Windy, who has been working with Naimi for over 18 years. She would always bring a bottle of ionized water from home, he noticed. He also noticed that she only drank her water from that bottle, so he decided to ask her about it one day, marking Naimi’s first introduction to the water ionizer.

Windy walks over to the tables nearby to do some spot cleaning just as Naimi and I are discussing the benefits of acid water. She is a tall woman with a warm, bubbly personality. When I ask her about her experience with her water ionizer, her enthusiasm for the results she has experienced is contagious.

“My mom is really kind of ahead of the whole health food health food thing. For like 30 years, she has been doing research into alternative health practices. She actually bought me my water ionizer, so that’s how I heard about it. I first thought to myself, ‘This is water. What difference could water make?’ But it’s been amazing since we started drinking it.”

Setting the Trend

I ask her if she has noticed the trend that is starting to take off in her area. Without hesitating, Windy tells me, “Well, after I got one, then Shoja got one, and then a couple girls who work here tried the water, and then got one for their family, too.  So it’s definitely spreading. [The water] is amazing stuff.”

Windy describes to curious customers the benefits of alkaline water when they ask her about it—which is often. “When she serves customers, she offers them alkaline water with their meal. She can describe all of the benefits to customers, what it does, how to use it apply it at home,” says Naimi—and the response has been very positive.

“I have customers bring their water bottles in from home to fill up with alkaline water. They come back again and again. People come in here buying a gallon here and there. Sometimes as a promotion, we give away free alkaline water to our repeat customers.”

Windy is the perfect water ionizer evangelist. Without hesitating, Windy lists off creative ways that she uses alkaline or acid water in her home. “I cook with the alkaline water all the time. I cook my beans with them, and they come out super tender. It’s good stuff. I even carry a little bottle of acid water I keep with me in my purse and I spray my face with it. It’s a wonderful skin toner.”

A Long and Successful History in Alternative Health

With all of its useful trends and health benefits, it’s a wonder why the trend hasn’t been introduced to the United States sooner. The ionizer has been used as a medical device in Korea and Japan for over 40 years, and has been popping up in mainstream holistic health circles for the last decade in the United States and Europe. Part purifier, part electrolysis machine, a water ionizer produces two categories of water: alkaline and acid water. Alkaline drinking water is reported to offer health benefits such as bowel regularity, clearer skin, more energy, faster post-workout recovery time, and is a natural antioxidant. Acid water, is strictly for topical use, and is an excellent skin toner and organic counter-top sanitizer.

Naimi himself is now a believer in the practical uses of a water ionizer. He says he uses the acid water to wash his face in the morning.  The cut flowers adorning the tables in the Roxy are watered with acid water, according to Windy.  Acid water is a natural skin toner, a fact which Naimi has noticed from using it as aftershave on his own skin. “Besides drinking alkaline water, I use acid water to take home and wash my face, spot-clean my clothes.” He has a small puppy, which he occasionally washes with acid water, making his coat shiny and clean. Moreover, he says, the puppy likes the alkaline water for drinking too!

1. Suffering from Constipation? Alkaline Ionized Water Will Help When I first started this blog, I wanted to let...

Related posts brought to you by Yet Another Related Posts Plugin.

I have been writing a lot lately about other important issues such as contaminants, bottled water, and reverse osmosis, and about the marketing deception in the water ionizer industry.  I have also written a number of articles about Enagic and Kangen water as almost everybody who is introduced to the water.

I want to get back to talking about specific illnesses and how the water helps.  While the other issues I have been writing about are important, the primary reason that people investigate water ionizer is because they want to know if the water can help them.  Some day, I hope that everyone will be drinking ionized water so that I don’t have to write anymore about how the water can help cure or dramatically improve various problems.

Constipation:

Nobody talks about constipation. Even discussing the subject with your doctor or pharmacist seems to be embarrassing for many. You never hear people having a conversation about constipation because… well… people just don’t talk about it. But it is real and it can be painful and it affects far more people than you would think.

Causes:

Wikipedia provides a quick and simple analysis: “Causes of colonic slow transit constipation include diet, hormones, side effects of medications, and heavy metal toxicity. ”

Treatment:

Wikipedia once again sums it up well: dietary habits, laxatives, enemas, biofeedback, and surgery. What Wikipedia fails to mention is that ionized water also can be found to be effective.

Our story:

I’m grateful that I don’t suffer from constipation. However, my wife Mary has had the misfortune of battling constipation for as long as she can remember. When we are at home, and in our comfort zone, she can somewhat control her constipation for the most part but it is an ongoing struggle. Even though my wife eats a lot better than I do, constipation and bloating had plagued her life before we started drinking ionized water. 

When we started drinking the water, the results for me were rapid and dramatic because I have a very poor diet. My 15 year struggle with acid reflux reduced dramatically in about one week and virtually stopped permanently in a couple of months.  My painful battle with arthritis ended in resounding success within a month of starting to drink the water.  My wife eats well and she didn’t notice anything for the longest time after we started drinking the water.  One day, I mentioned that she never seemed to complain about constipation anymore.  She looked at me in her funny way and said “you are right”.  Now how often do you hear that statement from your spouse? 

It took five or six months until we realized that her lifelong ordeal with constipation was over.  We are not talking about something as dramatic as curing cancer, but if you live with constipation, this is a big deal.

Every time Mary stops drinking ionized water for a few days, such as when we are on a trip, her constipation comes back. As soon as she starts drinking ionized water again, her constipation goes away.  It is easy to eliminate heavy metal toxicity, medications, and hormonal changes from the equation, which leaves diet. Most people don’t consider water to be part of their diet, but they should as water plays a huge role in your health.

Other stories:

When I was in the water ionizer business, I spoke to hundreds and hundreds of people who called in to learn about water ionizers. People wanted to know if the water would help their health issues. I can fully understand how it would be easy to take advantage of people. I always stated that I was not a physician and that people should always consult their health care practitioner with health issues. Everyone in the water ionizer industry should do the same.

I was always amazed what people would tell me.  I suppose it is easier to talk to a stranger than someone you know.  One of the things that surprised me was how many women suffer from constipation.  Constipation is not limited to women, but I found that it is a health issue that is definitely much more predominant in women.  The diet’s of men and women are not likely to be exactly the same, but they would likely be similar in married couples.  Given that the women were much more susceptible to constipation that their husbands, I have to agree with the information on Wikipedia that hormones play a role.  

When people with constipation would purchase a water ionizer from me, I would always ask them to let me know if they had any success.  I can’t be certain of the statistical impact that drinking ionized water had on the people who started drinking the water.  However, I can tell you that I did have a number of calls from people telling me that they did achieve success after drinking the water for awhile.

I don’t believe that drinking ionized water should ever take the place of eating a healthy diet.  At the same time, I believe ionized water can play a significant role in improving one’s diet.

You might want to check out the following link about a recent Japanes study about the test findings of ionized water on constipation:  http://heartspring.net/water_ionized_medical_congress25th.html  The article deals with Clinical Test Results that were presented at the 25th General Assembly of Japan Medical Congress.  The tests verified in a double blind study that Alkline Ionized water is effective against constipation and diarrhea.  Over 80% of the participants in the study found that ionized water was effective with constipation.

Related posts brought to you by Yet Another Related Posts Plugin.

I noticed the results the first week, as my 15 year battle with acid reflux disappeared in days.  The arthritis in my joints that was ruining my life disappeared in weeks.   My wife on the other hand didn’t notice any changes for a few months until it suddenly occurred to her that she no longer had problems with constipation or bloating.

The difference in timing for recognizing the benefits is usually related to the diet of the person drinking the water.  The more healthy your diet, the less noticeable the effects of adding alkaline water.  People with acid reflux, arthritis, diabetes, or those who are overweight tend to notice the benefits much faster than people who have a healthy diet consisting primarily of fruits and vegetables.   I was a terrible eater, so the changes came quickly for me.  My wife has always loved her greens, so it took awhile for her.

The 3% of people in our society that eat a diet that consists of 80% alkaline foods probably don’t need a water ionizer, but the rest of us do.  Even vegetarians benefit from drinking ionized water.  I have spoken to a number of vegetarians that were unable to attain an alkaline pH for their body fluids (measured by a saliva swab) until they began drinking ionized water.  

Your health is not all about being alkaline, but it is definitely an important factor.  Your body is supposed to be alkaline but we keep filling ourselves up with acidic foods and drinks.  Converting to an alkaline diet is difficult, but it is a worthwhile exercise.  During the conversion process, you can rely upon ionized water to help.  Once you start drinking alkaline water, you will never stop.  Your body knows the difference, whether you become aware of it right away, or it takes awhile.

2. Dealing with Fibromyalgia with Alkaline Foods and Water Fibromyalgia is a pain…..literally.  It has been described to me...

Related posts brought to you by Yet Another Related Posts Plugin.

Susan C. Eiguren, NC, provides a simple and good description of fibromyalgia and why it seems to “move around and cause pain everywhere” as follows:

” “Fibro” means connective tissue and “myalgia” means muscle pain. So fibromyalgia is a painful condition affecting the connective tissues of our muscles. If you were to see a cross section of one of your muscles, you’d see yarn-like strands of fibre, each of which is wrapped in connective tissue. Bundles of those yarn strands are gathered together and each bundle is wrapped in more connective tissue.  All those bundles are wrapped together in connective tissue which forms the muscle. The muscle is then connected to bones by tendons or to other muscles by ligaments. (Both tendons and ligaments are connective tissues too.”

You can see how a connective tissue problem can cause pain all over in and around your muscles.  Now that you have a basic understanding of what fibromyalgia is, and why it is so painful, we can address what can we do about it? 

We can start by acknowledging that medical doctors don’t cure fibromyalgia.  In fact, the prescriptions they often make to mask the pain or help you sleep typically increases the toxicity in your body.  Don’t blame the physicians, as they have never received training on how to help people proactively live healthy lives.  What a crazy system!  There is hope, as there are a few forward thinking physicians who are learning how to focus on the importance of what we put in our bodies as the logical solution on how to prevent future problems.  I spoke to an enlightened physician this week who certainly “gets it”. 

I believe your best bet is to visit a Naturopathic Doctor, who has trained for years on how to diagnose symptoms and provide natural cures.  If our social system paid for visits to Naturopathic Doctors, we would have a much healthier and happier population.  The minimal cost of a couple of visits to a Naturopathic Doctor for preventative guidance would certainly save the system billions of dollars per year down the road.

What do you do if you can’t afford to visit a naturopathic doctor, or you want to avoid the cost of their services?  Well, you can do what they would tell you to do.

Naturopathic doctors will tell you that your body is probably too acidic and explain to you the importance of being alkaline. 

Our bodies are meant to be alkaline, and our highly acidic diets puts enormous stress on our systems.  When you eat foods that create acid in your body, most of the toxic waste is eliminated from your body by the bladder and bowels, and some is eliminated by breathing and through the skin.  However, some of the waste is stored in protective fat cells, and some is absorbed into the blood stream and carried throughout your body.  

The key to dealing with almost any disease, and especially fibromyalgia, is to eat an alkaline diet and drink alkaline ionized water.  While converting to an alkaline diet is often a struggle, drinking ionized water is simple and very effective.   That doesn’t mean you can drink alkaline ionized water and continue to fill your body with acidic foods. I found that starting with the water allowed me to experience the benefits of being alkaline, which encouraged me to slowly convert to a more alkaline diet as the benefits became more and more obvious.  

I have spoken to a number of people who have struggled with fibromyalgia for many years.  Several have found that they can experience almost total relief from fibromyalgia on an ongoing basis simply by drinking alkaline water and being more mindful of their diet. Nothing works for everyone, but I have talked to too many fibromyalgia sufferers that have found relief by drinking the water to simply discount it as “voodoo magic”

If you suffer from fibromyalgia, I recommend that you speak to your Doctor, or better yet, a Naturopathic Doctor, about how to become more alkaline so that you will be able to deal with, and eventually overcome the painful disease.

The health industry focuses on the importance of the benefits of being alkaline (pH over 7.0) because disease can’t exist in an alkaline environment. 

pH is the measure of the acidity (hydrogen rich H+ ions) or alkalinity (hydroxyl rich OH- ions) of water.  The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14 with 0 being the strongest acid, 14 being the strongest alkaline.  A pH of 7 is neutral (neither acidic or alkaline), as in the case of distilled or pure water.  The pH scale is logarithmic, which means that a pH level of 5.0 is ten times more acidic than a pH level of 6.0

The primary discussion about pH revolves in the health industry is focused on the pH level of blood because of the vital role  that pH plays in your health and survival.   The pH level of your blood will remain in a very tight range of 7.35 to 7.45, or the results can be very profound and dangerous.  As a result, your body has very sophisticated acid-alkaline balancing mechanisms that will ensure that your blood level will remain in the required range.  Your body will beg/borrow/steal anything available in the body to make sure the pH level remains in the very tight range mentioned above.  A good discussion of the acid-alkaline balance of your blood can be found at  http://www.merck.com/mmhe/sec12/ch159/ch159a.html. 

Your body contains other fluids such as urine, saliva, and cerebrospinal fluid.  It is easy to test the pH of your urine and saliva with pH test strips.  When you test your urine or saliva, you should do so first thing in the morning before eating.  You will likely find that the pH levels are much lower than the pH level of your blood.   The pH level of advanced cancer patients can be in the low 5s while vegetarians often have a pH values in the high 6s.  When alkaline ionized water is added to the diet, most people will notice a significant increase in their urine and saliva levels.   Vegetarians often find that their pH levels will finally move into alkaline territory after drinking alkaline ionized water, as it appears that the water is the final ingredient in helping them become alkaline.

I’m aware of three individuals that post on the internet that alkaline ionized water can’t possibly work because the acidic level of the stomach neutralizes the alkaline properties of the water.  None of the naysayers actually drink the water, and they refuse to test it.  You may find it useful to check out the following link which is a technical (and somewhat dry) article written by Sang Whang.  The article explains how drinking alkaline water causes the body to produce important alkaline bicarbonate buffers in the blood when the stomach produces hydrochloric acid to neutralize the alkaline water:  http://alkalineworld.wordpress.com/2010/03/07/alkaline-water-stomach-acid/

Mr. Whang, the author of Reverse Aging, concludes the above article with the statement: “What is diminishing, as we age, is the alkaline buffer.  To maintain the alkaline–acid balance in the blood, we must recharge the alkaline buffer in the blood.  Drinking alkaline water is the best way.  This is better than any alkaline food”

I agree with the summary provided by Mr. Whang, as it makes sense.  However, I believe there is more to the water than the simple alkalinity argument.  Mr. Whang believes that ORP (oxidation reduction potential, which is measured by milivolts) doesn’t play an important role in the health benefits of alkaline ionized water.  My experience and research tells me that ORP also plays an important role in removing acid buildup and helping the body become more alkaline.

Virtually all substances that you consume end up in your stomach for a prolonged period of time to be processed.  However, it is well documented that sugar, alcohol, and ionized water pass directly through the stomach into the intestines, and into your blood.  We are all aware that police officers use this fact to test blood alcohol levels, as a two or three quick drinks can end up in DUI charges, as alcohol passes through the stomach immediately.

Having witnessed my father (a physician) pour maple syrup down the throat of my uncle during a diabetic seizure, I can tell you from experience that the results are very rapid and effective. The glucose from the maple syrup obviously bypassed the stomach.

You can easily prove to yourself that ionized water passes through the stomach immediately into the intestines.  If you attempt to drink 3 sixteen ounce glasses of tap or bottled water (48 ounces in total) in 2 minutes, you will find it very difficult to do so.  In addition, you will feel bloated and uncomfortable for hours.  If you drink the same 48 ounces of ionized water in the same two minute period, you will find that it is much easier to drink the water and you will not feel the unpleasant bloated feeling. 

So, what does this little drinking water experiment tell us? Negatively charged ionized water bypasses the stomach as advertised, just like the example of using maple syrup in the story about my uncle.  So, with all due respect to Mr. Whang and his logical argument, it appears there is more going on (as in the fact that ORP does play a role) than the simple creation of alkaline bicarbonate buffers when the stomach produces hydrochloric acid to neutralize alkaline water.   The stomach could not possibly create enough hydrochloric acid and the corresponding bicarbonates in such a short period of time.  Funny how a scary childhood experience would be part of this blog nearly 50 years later.

“ Don & I are in our 80’s and have lived in Washington for our entire lives.  My husband was diagnosed with terminal prostate cancer and we were told he didn’t have much time. Don was getting weak and we had to make some decisions quick! We sold our home & property where we had lived for 50 yrs, as we wanted to downsize in preparation for the inevitable.   The Doctors gave Don radiation tablets but things didn’t look good and we weren’t hopeful.  Just before Christmas time 2008, Cheryel told us about this water thing.  I couldn’t remember much of the conversation other than she had been going through chemotherapy herself, and she kept talking about this water that she swears by. 

We were interested in Cheryel’s story, but Don was feeling poorly as he was having a hard time with his kidneys and we had to leave.  We didn’t think about the conversation again, as we were preoccupied.  However my nephew showed up at our house one day shortly after Christmas with this a water ionizer that Cheryel had loaned to us.  She thought it might make Don feel a little bit better at the very least.

Don has been drinking the water ever since.  When Don started drinking the water his PSA was 253.  When we last saw the oncologist at the end of April 2009, Don’s PSA had dropped down to 1.1 and has remained at low cancer free levels ever since.   Don’s kidney’s continue to get better. 

We haven’t made too many changes other than drinking the water and eating a bit better.  I can’t think of anything besides the water that helped Don.  Whatever that water does, we love it and think everyone should drink it.  Don & I want to thank Cheryel .

Don & Billy Howard, Washington State”

I want to thank the Howards for taking the time to share their story.   I expect to be able to share many more similar stories in the future, as they are out there.  I just need to find them. 

I’m not a physician and I don’t offer medical advice, but I believe it is both reckless and senseless to continue to leave cancer treatment up to the pharmaceutical companies and physicians.  An improvement of only 5% in survival rates for cancer in 60 years is just not good enough.

What are they afraid of?  Do you think that they might be concerned that if we eat properly and hydrate adequately, the need for pharmaceutical drugs will plummet like they did in Japan before the water ionizer industry was forced to shut down advertising for two years?

This article addresses a truly pathetic internet effort to discredit alkaline water.  The face of website in question is Dr. Stephen Lower.  At one time in his career, this man was a legitimate professor of chemistry at Simon Fraser University in British Columbia, but it has been 11 years since he was terminated from his position. While a professor is allowed to maintain a “Dr” designation for life, this man has clearly lost all sense of the basics of scientific research.  His internet site, which is obviously backed by someone with a strong financial interest in seeing the awareness of the benefits of alkaline water suppressed, is based upon Lower’s (or the pharma industry’s) self-serving hypothesis that water can’t be ionized and that water ionizers are therefore a scam.  

How does his site, which doesn’t sell anything (therefore no revenues) constantly maintain the top ranking for the hotly contested keywords of alkaline water and water ionizers?  Riddle me that!

Lower’s website offers a couple of chemistry equations, and then he states that pure water can’t be ionized. His statement is true, but irrelevant, because there is no such thing as pure water in nature. The only pure water in the world is created through distillation. His site offers no scientific basis whatsoever, despite claiming that water ionizers don’t work based upon scientific fact. All legitimate scientific papers begin with a hypothesis, describe and perform accepted testing procedures and protocols in detail to insure unbiased data, generate and analyse data, and finally, discuss the implications of the study.  Lower refuses to even test the water or the machines that produce the water, and yet he triumphantly claims that ionized water is a hoax. Shame on him!

When a Vancouver distributor for one of the ionizer companies contacted the ex-professor to invite him to a demonstration to test the results of the ionization process, the ex-professor declined the invitation. The distributor then offered to bring a machine to the ex-professor’s home, or to any lab of his choosing for a demonstration. The distributor’s goal was to provide unequivocal evidence that the alkaline water ionizing machine does change the pH and ORP of water when the water is passed through the simple process of electrolysis. The ex-professor declined the offer.  The distributor then offered to have the water tested any scientific testing facility in the area, and have Dr. Lower choose the technicians and the testing equipment.  The process wouldn’t cost the ex-profession anything, but he refused to take part in scientific testing.

Why would somebody who claims to be an expert on a subject and publishes their beliefs, refuse to attend demonstrations that clearly invalidate his/her claims?

In a more recent email sent by Dr. Lower to a Doctor of Natural Medicine, Dr. Lower wrote: “ I do not test processes or devices, but merely assess the scientific credibility of the explanations given for how they work”.  He also stated: “I am prepared to admit the possibility that some of the dubious products I mention might be effective under the right conditions”.  So, we know he won’t test his theories, and he admits that there may be merit to the fact that ionized water may work, but it doesn’t suit his needs to put those statements on his website that sits at the top of the Google search engine for the subject.

Dr. Lower publicly states on his personal website that he can do without: God, cats, Microsoft Windows, sports, most tv and popular culture etc etc etc.   Probing a little further into his website, we find a list of favourite websites, which includes the blasphemous Jesus Dressup where you can dress up Jesus as a devil or in other outfits (see http://www.jesusdressup.com/ ) and the Periodic Table of Comic Books (see http://www.uky.edu/Projects/Chemcomics/index.html ) .

You may be wondering why I’m picking on a seemingly harmless 77 year old guy, who is clearly unable or unwilling to assess alkaline water or water ionizers. If it were all harmless fun, we could just have a good laugh. However, I have spoken to numerous people who have chosen to discontinue their investigation of the benefits of alkaline water because of their belief that the opinion of this charlatan has value. If I have personally spoken to dozens of people who have been influencecd by his website, imagine how many thousands of victims he has tricked with his gibberish.  It disturbs me that someone like Lower can destroy the legitimate efforts of people who are attempting to learn about a natural way to improve their health.

It is hard to believe that it can get worse, but it does.  A recent search of “alkaline water” on Wikipedia turned up the following statement:  “However, drinking ionized water would not be expected to alter the body’s pH, and there is no evidence of any claims made by manufacturers that drinking ionized water will have a noticeable effect on the body.[2]” .  Guess where the statement came from?  None other that our infamous Dr. Lower (see “Lower, S. “”Ionized” and alkaline water: Snake oil on tap”).   I’m not kidding!  This charlatan and his gimmicky website are quoted as a source for alkaline water on Wikipedia.

Enough is enough! Surely the pharmaceutical industry can come up with something better than this farce. 

It is time to take off the gloves and go after the people who pretend to know what they are talking about when it comes to ionized water.  I have been made aware of articles from a nutritionist from a famous medical institition and a couple of MDs in the States that claim that ionized water can’t and won’t work.  They haven’t tested the water and they have no research or ancedotal evidence to support their claims.  

Anyone that wants to help me expose unsupported claims from professionals that are just sounding off for notoriety or for hidden profit are encouraged to contact me.   This could get interesting!
