How to Make Alkaline Water


You may know about the benefits of alkaline water and you'd like to find out where to buy alkaline water or how to make your own. Actually, it's easier than you think. 

I recently read the book The Baby Boomer Diet: Body Ecology's Guide to Growing Younger: Anti-Aging Wisdom for Every Generation by Donna Gates and Lyndi Schrecengos and discovered the importance of keeping my body alkaline. The standard American diet, filled with fast foods, processed foods, and lots of meat and sugar, keep our bodies in a very acid state, which invites degenerative diseases such as arthritis and causes us to age faster than we should.

Benefits of Alkaline Water

Ph levels, or the measure of alkaline/acid in our body can range from 0 to 14, with 7 being neutral. Its easy to measure your own ph levels with ph test strips which can test either your saliva or your urine. These are available in the pool section of stores like Home Depot and are very inexpensive. 

The benefits of drinking alkaline water haven't been established but if your body is very acidic, it stands to reason that drinking alkaline water can help balance your own body's ph levels. Many water alkalizing machines cost thousands of dollars but you make your own with a less expensive portable alkaline water IonPod for under $50.

The Original IonPod® Portable Alkalizing Water Bottle

My own body tests super-alkaline, which is not a good thing either. Since my body is too acidic, it's trying to balance itself by working hard to become very alkaline. I'm working on my diet, cutting out acidic foods, drinking quality water and eating more alkaline foods to bring my body to a neutral ph level. I ordered an IonPod to help me with the balancing process and have been very pleased with it. 

All you do is add water, let it set for 5 minutes, turning the bottle upside down a couple times and you have a glass of water. I make sure to use good, clear water and not tap water. When it's been in the IonPod for 5 minutes, the water ph tested 9.0. (You also get a ph testing kit with your bottle.)

When you compare this portable alkalizing bottle costing $49.95, with free shipping, to a unit costing $2500, there is no comparison. You can also buy bottled alkaline water but you don't find it in most stores so you have to order it. I'd rather have my own source right at hand.

If you'd like to make your own alkaline water so you can enjoy it's benefits, I'd recommend the IonPod highly.

Indeed bottled alkaline water contains minerals as well. Consequently water is good for everyone. There is only a lack of awareness as to the main reason why we need to drink water.
