What is Alkaline? The more alkaline you are, the healthier you feel, say experts. In this post, we have listed down some of the great benefits of drinking Alkaline Water...

When it comes to health, water is kind of a big deal. The poem “Rime of the Ancient Mariners”, in one single line, has impeccably shed light on the worth of water in our lives. But neither are we the mariners, nor are we in Antarctica, to realize the significance of this prized natural resource for our health and well-being, the “hard
way”.

Even after reading articles about health benefits of drinking water or being aware about it, many of us take it for granted and consume only enough water to quench our thirst which is not even close to what our body needs.

So how much water should we drink each day? :

It’s a modest query with no easy solutions. Our water needs depend on a lot of factors such as our health, how active we are and where we live. However, ideally, as studies suggest we should drink 8-ounce glasses of water a day.

So if water is the cure for of all our health woes, then what is this oh-so-new hype named alkaline water? Let’s revisit the chemistry classes of our school days, and we would recall that normal drinking water has a pH level 7. On the other hand, alkaline water has a pH level higher than the regular drinking water. Now that we are aware of the layman definition, we would surely like to know few alkaline water benefits and disadvantages, so that we can go ahead and slot it in our daily lives and haul out the returns.

Ph level in a nut shell:-

As per studies and expert claims, alkaline water can help lull acid reflux for the reason that the higher pH level kills pepsin(enzyme accountable for breaking down food proteins and the main culprit for acid reflux). Also, alkaline water is well known for its ultra-hydrating quality.

Sounds great, right?

Well to know more about the health benefits involved, you will need to read this article till completion. So grab a cup of green tea (since we are talking healthy) , sit back, relax and read on.

                         5 Health Benefits of Drinking Alkaline Water:

Alkaline Water Helps to Detox our Body:

Detoxification has become a riveting fad, in recent years. As we are moving ahead in time, people are becoming more and more aware of the need to stay healthy and finding the key in detoxification. And what is healthier way to do so than alkaline water?

Drinking alkaline water daily aids the body to flush out the toxic wastes. It also helps to get rid of the hoarded toxins in our body from the surroundings, medications, unnatural foods and from the “customary” course of aging.
With alkaline water as your fitness necessaries, your call for detoxification will be amply answered.

Full of Antioxidants || Anti Aging Water:

“We've all overheard the term "free radicals" and "antioxidants", but do you know what they mean? “
Free radicals are unstable oxygen atoms that cause oxidation in our bodies, which causes aging and disease. The method of oxidation "rip-offs" electrons from the surface being oxidized and this is where antioxidants come into picture.Antioxidants work by significantly slowing or preventing oxidation.
But how alkaline water fits into the set-up?

Well, drinking alkaline water helps rummage free radicals in the body, thus slowing down the aging process and keeping diseases at bay. It is a powerful antioxidant that is easily absorbed in our body and help neutralize free radicals.

Keeps your Body Hydrated & Healthy:

We have over and over again heard as well as read that it is highly essential to keep our body hydrated. Hydration is important because our body mostly consists water and it governs how most of our system functions. Drinking liquids help our body in varied ways, for example, maintains body temperature, remove wastes, ensures healthy metabolic rate etc.

All of the above undertakings can be easily accomplished by drinking regular water. Then what the scoop is on water with a higher pH level?

And as the claims put forward. “Is drinking alkaline water good for you?”
During ionization, the alkaline water breaks water into micro clusters that are more easily absorbed at the cellular levels thus keeping our body more hydrated. Ionized alkaline water is filtered and ionized, eliminating the detrimental toxins thus leaving behind the essential minerals.

Maintains The Body pH Level | Keeps the acid level in check:

A lot of foodstuffs in our contemporary diet are considered acidic, thus raising the acid levels of our body. Drinking water with a higher pH level than the regular tap water can balance the pH level in our bodies caused by food we eat as well as other dynamics. This is vital as our blood needs to stay at a balanced pH level, else it will use the calcium in the bones to bring the level of acid down. And if the blood is frequently using the calcium supply, we’ll end up with weaker bones.
Even if we keep the above scenario aside, a higher acid level in our body can lead to other major issues such a feeble immune system, diarrhea,fatigue,anxiety etc.

Now that we have painted a bitter but true picture of how higher acid levels can affect our body’s functionality, we can fittingly establish that drinking alkaline water can keep our body’s pH at the desired level.

Alkaline Water Perfect For Your Weight Loss Regime:

Yes, you heard it right, alkaline water can be a companion in your weight loss regime. As already spoken above, the modern diet consists more of acidic foodstuffs which increase acidity in our body. To compensate for the higher levels of acid, our body produces more fat cells( to neutralize the acid). And as a side effect of this unasked
for action , we tend to gain more weight.

To stop our body from producing these infamous fat cells, we need to recompense by providing our body something which helps to neutralize the acid. This is where the call for alkaline water is answered.
Drinking alkaline water helps in weight loss as the fat storage is reduced and a body with a balanced pH level loses weight easier than a body with higher levels of acid.
