We all know we should drink water. But I’ll bet you’d be surprised to know that some water can contribute to you being sick, tired, and fat. Tap water is far from ideal, with its chlorine, fluoride and other junk. Drinking bottled water has become almost the norm now. We are under the impression that it is a good, safe choice. Unfortunately, it doesn’t even come close, most of the time, to putting us on the road to health. The pH of these bottled waters is usually very acidic, ranging from 3 to 6 on the pH scale.
Using the alkaline theory, our water needs to be at least 7.365 in order to match the ideal pH of our blood. But that’s not even enough. Our bodies are constantly creating acids – remember the body is alkaline by design, acidic by function. Even digesting creates acids. So, the goal here is to get our water pH up to at least 8, but even better – 9, 9.5 or 10. When we hydrate with very alkaline water, our bodies love us. They don’t have to work so hard to maintain balance. You will begin to detoxify and cleanse your entire body of acids. Your fat cells will release their acids and shrink quickly. Your body cells won’t be swimming in acidic fluids anymore.
I love Dr. Young’s analogy:
“Think of your body as a fish tank...
Imagine the cells in your body are fish and they are swimming in the fluids of your body. Most of us are polluting our fish tanks (bodies) with junk food, smoking, over consumption of acid-forming foods, and any number of transgressions which compromise the delicate balance of our internal alkaline fluids.”
I’m going to give you a BEST solution to your water challenge. Then I’m going to give you a 2nd best solution.
First, watch this video:

I’m hoping by now, you are convinced that water quality is everything.
Buy a life-saving water ionizer/alkalizer. There are many on the market, but I’m convinced of the superior quality of the Jupiter Melody. It makes excellent water, looks great in any kitchen, and is easy to set up and change filters. It also is a great price. Any Jupiter model will do. They are all quality machines.
Yes, they are pricey. However, when you put it into perspective, it is a REALLY great deal. Think about not having to go to the doctor anymore with ailments and symptoms, or taking your kids to the doctor several times a year. Think about all that bottled water you won’t need to buy anymore. Think about how wonderful you’ll feel just after the first day of use. In my opinion, this is one of the best investments you'll ever make.
I’m so excited to offer you water ionizers by Chanson. They are not only among the best ionizers, but the company has the best customer service - prompt and helpful. You will LOVE your water ionizer/alkalizer and you will be thrilled that you never have to be without it again.
NEXT BEST SOLUTION:
If buying an ionizer is out of the question right now, I offer you another option. It’s not ideal, and the water quality won’t even come close to the Melody, for example, but this will still assist you in eliminating acids from your body.
Find a source for reverse osmosis water or distilled water. I don’t know how to get distilled in large amounts – just by the gallon at the grocery stores for about .69 per gallon. Cheaper than that would be to find a water dispenser (many grocery stores carry them) that dispenses filtered water. All the ones I’ve seen use reverse osmosis and other filters/ultraviolet light to purify the water. The water from these units usually costs about .39 per gallon. Take a few 5-gallon jugs (bought from Walmart for cheap for about $10 each) and fill them up for your water supply.
Okay, now you have some decent water. The next step is to make it alkaline.
You can buy alkalizing drops. Then you also need to buy some test strips. Don’t do like I did. I used some drops for many months, then finally bought some test strips to confirm that what I was drinking was very alkaline. IT WASN’T!! The pH showed only about at 8. At least, it wasn’t acidic, but I was not very happy. I spent a lot of money on those drops for me and my family. Always know the pH of your water.
www.phmiracleliving.com sells water test strips. You know they are water test strips when the pH level range is from about 0 to 13. His strips come in a roll and you tear off strips to use.
Later, I will discuss testing your urine to make sure you are achieving the results you've been working hard to achieve. pHMiracleLiving also sells test strips for your urine/saliva, however I prefer a different kind that's easier to read, as in the following link from Amazon:
Urine test strips will range from about 5.5 to 8 on the pH scale.
If you don’t buy the drops, there is still hope for you. Plain old baking soda, or sodium bicarbonate, will alkalize your water instantly and effectively. It will jump it up to 9 or more easily. Yuck, you say? Yes, at first, it’s a little strange and hard to get down. Start with small amounts. Add ¼ teaspoon to each liter of water. As you can, add another ¼ tsp until you get up to 1 whole teaspoon. If you are trying to reverse serious symptoms, you’ll want to add 2 to 3 tsp per liter. For me, I usually add 1 to 1 ½ to each liter. Don’t be afraid of this salt. Our bodies thrive on good salts. It’s the bad salt like white table salt that’ll kill you. Just like those little fishies, our cells are bathed in salt water.
Even if you use a water ionizer/alkalizer, Dr. Young still suggests to add sodium bicarbonate to our water sometimes, because of its healing properties. So… buck up and get used to it.
HOW MUCH WATER SHOULD WE DRINK EACH DAY?
You should be drinking a liter/quart of water for every 30 pounds of body weight. So, if you weigh 120 pounds - 4 liters per day. 150 pounds - 5 liters per day, and so on. This is something you want to increase gradually - maybe over a weeks time. Or two weeks. Make note of the times it works best for you to down a liter. I usually put down a half liter, then another half about 15 minutes later.
Here is my water schedule:
5:30 am (when I first wake up)
8:00 am (when I'm starting to fix my breakfast)
11:30 am (before lunch)
3:00 pm (about when my kids come home from school)
7:00 pm (sometime in the evening)
Warning: Always know where the bathrooms are when you’re out and about.
If you can't or refuse to drink a liter per 30 pounds, aim for every 40 pounds, or even every 50 pounds - just do the best you can!! It will probably be better than what you are doing now.
Don't worry about changing anything else right now - this is challenge enough. But everyone who wants amazing health can at least do this much right away. This will start to heal you from the inside out. Your intestinal walls will be very happy and this will affect your entire health.
So, step one in summary: get good at drinking your alkaline water - you will feel good immediately, and it will only get better from here. Next week, I will show you how to make your water even better!
