Antioxidant Water

If you are looking to combat degenerative disease, slow down the aging process and keep your body functioning optimally then it is essential to have a good supply of antioxidants to neutralise harmful free radicals. Drinking ‘Alkalark'' mineral alkaline reduced water is probably the best way to get a steady and consistent supply.

Oxygen free radicals are attributed as being the cause of all kinds of illnesses. Free radicals are formed when weak chemical bonds split. Free radicals are very unstable and react quickly with other compounds, trying to gain the needed electron to gain stability. Generally, free radicals attack the nearest molecule stealing its electron. When this happens the attacked molecule can become a free radical itself beginning a chain reaction. This process can cascade leading to the disruption of a living cell.

The human body has an enzyme system that eliminates oxygen free radicals, but when a significant amount of oxygen free radicals are created at the same time, then the residual oxygen free radicals attack the internal walls of blood vessels and other internal organs, which may lead to various diseases including cancers. Those diseases that have been attributed to oxygen free radicals are:

• Ageing
• Cancer
• Diabetes
• Atopic dermatitis
• Allergies
• Asthma
• Stomach and duodenal ulcer due to stress
• Inflammation of the stomach
• Sclerosis of the arteries
• Rheumatism
• Cataracts in the eye
• Parkinson''s disease
• Male infertility
• Myocardial infarction
• Toxaemias of pregnancy
• Brain haemorrhage
• Inflammation of the liver
• Radiation damage, etc.

In recent years it has been found that alkaline reduced water has the ability to eliminate oxygen free radicals. Consequently, alkaline reduced water shows a beneficial effect in combating various diseases caused by oxygen free radicals.

Professor Won H Kim in his Book Water of Life: a cure for our body states ‘ alkaline reduced water has a superior ability to eliminate active oxygen, one which is just as good as that of Vitamin C and E'' . He further states ‘ water that can supply electrons to active oxygen has a minus ORP (Oxidation Reduction Potential). For this reason water such as electrolysed alkaline water with a minus ORP develops the capacity to offset active oxygen''s destructive power (with a very high plus ORP)''

Typical Tap water has a pH of 7.2 and an ORP of 200-400, whereas alkalised water has a pH ranging from 7.5 to 11 with ORP''s ranging from -50 to -800.

The higher the negative value of ORP the better the waters effect in neutralising active oxygen free radicals.

‘Alkalark ' water provides the body with active hydrogen to counteract free radical activity. The following chart shows the effect of the ‘Alkalark ' minerals on water demonstrating its positive free radical fighting capability.

Drinking good quality water full of antioxidants is probably the single best investment you can make to help to achieve good health. Now ‘Alkalark ' gives you the ability to have alkaline antioxidant water wherever you are.
