Change Your Water & Improve Family's Health and Happiness!

Of course, the best way to prevent such pain is to visit a dentist regularly and get a check-up. but, when you feel a slight pain in your teeth when you consume cold foods and drinks, you should avoid acidic foods, which can melt your teeth.  Our mouth's pH is 5.5 (slightly acidic) and thus, strong acid below this level may damage the enamel of our teeth. The acid causes demineralization, a process in which the minerals inside the tooth enamel are dissolved. If you sip a soda throughout the day, the bacteria in your mouth may be constantly producing acid and this can cause sensitivity in the short term and tooth decay in the long term. Instead of drinking strong acidic beverages, change your habit into drinking healthy, clean Antioxidant Alkaline water. Drinking alkaline water will not only help you refrain from getting stomachaches (from too many acidic foods) but also from suffering from toothaches. Think wise and drink for the health and happine...

An increasing number of people these days prefer drinking carbonated water, believing that it is good for digestion and for diet (weight loss). A friend of mine even  bought his own soda-maker (carbonator) at home and drink every day. From my understanding, "carbonated drink" contains carbon dioxide. If so, is it true that it is good for our body? The answer is NO.  According to Professor Chang of Kyunghee University Hospital (Department of Gastrointestinal Internal Medicine), "There is no existing clinical research that proves the special effects of carbonated water in our body." He added, "It is only a temporary change that the carbonated dioxide causes in the stomach." Professor Chang explains that in order for the digestive organ to work  well, either the gastrointestinal motility has to be active or the digestive enzymes  have to be secreted well. However, the carbon dioxide does not affect both the  gastrointestinal mobility and the secr...

A few months ago, I had my blood tested. Results showed that I was a bit high in cholesterol, which made me realize that it's time for me to change my daily eating habits. Many of us are aware that continued intake of cholesterol-LDL to be specific-results in accumulation of fats and sticky blood in the blood vessel, which eventually inhibit smooth circulation of blood. This can cause high blood pressure and myocardial infarction. Basic treatments in curing circulatory disease such as heart disease are to inhibit overindulgence of cholesterol and instead take healthy food that makes your blood clean and clear. Following is the list of food that will help you maintain clean blood. • Grains such as brown rice, beans, mung beans and black rice are known to be abundant in essential amino acids, essential fatty acids, fiber and minerals that help excrete bodily wastes and clean the blood. Mung beans in particular can help remove toxins in the blood, whic...

For the past few weeks, we have been discussing the  importance of drinking water  and its relationship with minerals, our body, and growth. Many people know that drinking water is good for health. Now the question has shifted from "why drink water" to "what kind of water to drink." In fact, people-non-scientists and non-experts-may be less interested to know about the scientific properties and formula of water. Instead, all they want to know is answers to questions such as "What kind of water should we drink? Or " What are the qualities of good water ?" To answer those questions, first thing we have to do is to go over the types of drinking water on Earth-what are the options that we can choose from. The following is the list of water that people normally drink: Ground Water / Spring Water Ground water is from an underground source that is under a pressure equal to or greater than atmospheric pressure. Similarly, spring water come...

People often question the possibility of whether or not strong acidic beverages like cola erode parts of your stomach, intestine and esophagus, resulting in ulcers. The answer is no, and the reason can be explained by looking at the mystery behind the human body. How does it work inside  our body? For the stomach to properly digest the food, our body needs hydrochloric acid, which requires minerals such as salt. In this process, the sodium carbonate (NaHCO3), which is used as a pH regulator to maintain stable alkaline conditions appear in the stomach. For those who are interested in the scientific formula, it is written as: NaCl + H2O + CO2 = NaHCO3 + HCl.   First, we take food (Na and Cl), drink water and inhale carbon dioxide. In our body, it becomes NaHCO3 + HCl. The NaHCO3 has weak alkali components that yield neutralization when met with HCl (hydrogen chloride). Neutralization between acid and alkaline then removes the toxic property in HCl and turns it i...

“ Obesity or overweight is not a fat problem but it's an over-acid problem ”   Robert O. Young PhD , a research scientist and the author of the book, "The pH Miracle for Weight Loss" on his interview with CNN, shared tips on balancing body chemistry to lose weight. He said, “ Because our bodies constantly need energies, and there's waste product in energy production, which are acids, if our body does not eliminate acids through urination, perspiration or respiration, that acid gets on our hips, thighs, our waste lines, brain and this is what makes us fat ." The question is, how do we balance our body?  You should know what kinds of foods and drinks make you over-acidic. As we have discussed it at the last newsletter, one should avoid intake of too much acidic foods such as beef, chicken and pork, eggs, vinegar, soy sauce, mushrooms, corn, peanuts, dairy products, chocolate, tea and soda . The fact is, most Americans ’ diet is over-acidic. “ If acids a...
