The Importance of Hydration |
|
Water is referred to as the universal solvent and is considered the essence of life. It is this very presence of water that is attributed with our planet’s ability to have created life and to sustain it. The mantra in planetary cosmology is “where there is water, there may be life.”
Considering that our body is about 72%, our blood 83% and our brain 80% water, we need to re-think the conventional recommended 6-8 glasses of water a day. I look at this antiquated recommendation much like the RDA for vitamins. Taking the minimum amount of vitamins or water will only maintain a minimum level of health.

Weight Loss Secrets of Ionized Water |
Obesity has become an American obsession, and there is no shortage of self-styled experts offering weight loss solutions. None of the traditional weight loss programs address the root cause of obesity, says Dr. Robert O. Young, author of The pH Miracle for Weight Loss. The culprit is not calories, fats, carbohydrates, or laziness, says Young. It is acidity. “The body retains fat as a protection against the overproduction of acids caused by typical American diet,” writes Young. “You are not overweight, you are overacidic.

We cannot stop getting older, but can we arrest the aging process, says author Yinka Thomas, creator of the “No Nips, No Tucks” anti-aging program. “Getting older is natural and inevitable,” she writes. “Aging is not. Scientific study has now shown us that aging can be prevented. It is a choice.”
Getting older relates to the passage of time, while aging relates to the degeneration of cells. Aging is not just a matter of gray hair or wrinkles on the surface of the body.

Kopko-Alkalinizing the Body |
How Alkalinizing the Body Promotes Detoxification
Dr. Peter L. Kopko, D.C.
Today’s common diet, which is rich in proteins from meat, dairy products and processed grains, has been shown to create what is called metabolic acidosis. The physiological systems of the body are heavily taxed by this acidic load, as evidenced by the fact that most Americans have highly acidic urine. The majority of patients tested in my office who are not vegetarians run a urine pH of 5-6, which in my opinion is overly acidic. What benefits could be achieved by making the urine more alkaline?
