Scientific Proof of Alkaline Ionized Water Benefits

To understand how ionized alkaline water benefits your body one needs to read the research done by scientist on the water. Many scientific studies have been conducted to investigate just how drinking ionized water can give one beneficial effects every day. Since any water with a PH value greater than 7.0 can be called alkaline water, there is a huge misconception by the public on this water, and one which is used vehemently to exploit them. Companies take advantage of this misconception and sell products like higher ph alkaline bottled water or even mineral adding filters or baking soda additives for people to put into their drinking water to raise it’s ph and make it alkaline. This does not deliver any health benefits and can even give you health problems like kidney stones or other diseases. Before you can understand what health benefits drinking this water may give you, you should first learn about the different ways people can make alkaline water & alkaline ionized water, which one is beneficial and which one is not. To be clear alkaline ionized water is produced through the water electrolysis process that creates “reduced water” with a higher PH value (note that anything greater than 7.0 can be considered alkaline water).

The term Reduced Water is used because once it goes through the Electrolysis Chamber it comes out with restructured molecules. This creates an abundance of active hydrogen molecules (negatively charged) that will seek out, bond with, and neutralize harmful Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) molecules (positively charged) more commonly known as free radicals. ROS molecules can result from simple metabolism or from other sources, like Oxidative Stress, and they can cause significant damage to our bodies, even “damaging DNA, RNA, proteins, and contributing to the physiology of aging.” (Reactive Oxygen Species, Lee MY).  This is why “drinking ionized water has demonstrated anti-aging effects as well as prevention of diseases such as cancer, diabetes, ulcers, arteriosclerosis, atopic diseases, Parkinson’s disease and even pigmentary degeneration of retina.”  (Shirahata, Animal Cell Technology: Basic And Applied Aspects , Ohmori K , Vorobjeva NV.- Ionized water benefits microflora in the intestinal track , Koufman JA, Johnston N- Benefits of PH 8.8 Alkaline Water for the treatment of Acid Reflux Disease ).

Many Diseases Such As Obesity & Inflammatory Bowel Disease Could Be Caused By An Imbalance In The Human Microbiome

Did you know that in a healthy adult human body there are 10 times more bacterial cells than there are human cells which make up the organs and tissues in the body! We owe our lives and health to these bacteria which live within us. Up until recently, technology was too primitive to analyze and categorize these organisms. Now scientist are beginning the arduous process of discovering what these bacteria do and the interactions they have within our body. Researcher “Daniel Frank from the University of Colorado, Boulder is part of a team investigating the bacteria in the human digestive tract and the role they play in inflammatory bowel disease. His team has found significant shifts in the microbial populations in the gut of people suffering from the disease compared to those of healthy subjects, including the loss of protective bacterial populations in those people suffering from inflammatory bowel disease”(ScienceDaily).

Researcher “Ruth Ley from the Washington University in St. Louis has discovered that obesity was associated with changes in the abundance of certain types of bacteria which live in the human digestive tract. Due to such large numbers of different species of bacteria living within the human body, and the fact that their byproducts are found in most human bodily fluids, and the evidence for their role in health it is possible that understanding and mapping the human microbiome will prove to be more important to understanding human health than mapping the human genome, and it will be quite more complex and difficult due to the countless roles they may play”(ScienceDaily).

Many consumers of alkaline ionized water from Bawell water ionizers have reported beneficial effects for their Gastrointestinal disorders with nearly all overweight and obese people reporting that they have lost fat weight within the first month of drinking at least 8 glasses of antioxidant rich ionized water daily. In previous medical research, scientist attributed similar potential beneficial effects to alkaline ionized water made by water electrolysis. In the medical research study “On the Stimulation of growth of Anaerobic Microflora in the intestinal tract of humans by electrolyzed reduced water it was found that friendly gut bacteria grew when exposed to electrolyzed reduced water produced in electrolysis devices with -ORP values between 0 and -300mV. Drinking alkaline ionized water favors the growth of friendly residential microflora in the gut”(Electrolyzed Water Benefits Gut Bacteria).

While it is clear that the bacteria within the human body play vital roles in maintaining human health. The fact that electrolyzed reduced water benefits these bacteria provides proof of one of the many health improving benefits you can gain by drinking electrolyzed reduced water from a Bawell alkaline water ionizer electrolysis machine.

Scientific Proof Validated by Medical Research Studies on The Health Benefits of Drinking Alkaline Ionized Water

Scientific Proof Relating to Prevention and Destruction of Cancer Cells

Many medical studies have proven alkaline ionized drinking waters anti cancer benefits as scientist discovered “electrolyzed reduced waters ability to act as an antioxidant protecting against oxidative damage to DNA, RNA, and protein”(Lee MY, Kim YK, Ryoo KK, Lee YB, Park EJ). Further medical research discovered the water improves the body’s ability to destroy cancer cells by “enhancing induction of mitochondrial damage and cell death of human leukemia HL-60 cells”(Tsai CF, Hsu YW, Chen WK, Ho YC, Lu FJ). Scientist also discovered that ionized drinking water slows the growth of tumor cells by interrupting the growth of blood cells within the tumors. This discovery was published in an article titled “Inhibitory effect of electrolyzed reduced water on tumor angiogenesis”(Ye J, Li Y, Hamasaki T, Nakamichi N, Komatsu T, Kashiwagi T, Teruya K, Nishikawa R, Kawahara T, Osada K, Toh K, Abe M, Tian H, Kabayama S, Otsubo K, Morisawa S, Katakura Y, Shirahata S). Additional research showed that alkaline ionized drinking water aids in preventing formation of cancer cells by “Suppressing Promotion of Two-stage Cell Transformation”(Nishikawa R, Teruya K, Katakura Y, Osada K, Hamasaki T, Kashiwagi T, Komatsu T, Li Y, Ye J, Ichikawa A, Otsubo K, Morisawa S, Xu Q, Shirahata S).

Scientific Proof of Alkaline Ionized Drinking Water’s Anti-Diabetic Health Benefits

Medical research has proven the anti-diabetic effects of drinking alkaline ionized water since drinking this water “significantly reduced the blood glucose concentration and improved glucose tolerance”(Kim MJ, Kim HK) in type 1 and type 2 diabetes cases. Medical scientist have even advocated its use as an anti-diabetic agent after discovering that “Electrolyzed Reduced Water (ERW) with Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) scavenging ability reduced the blood glucose concentration, increased blood insulin level, improved glucose tolerance and preserved beta-cell mass in db/db mice. The present data suggest that ERW may protects beta-cell damage and would be useful for antidiabetic agent”(Kim MJ, Jung KH, Uhm YK, Leem KH, Kim HK). In addition “long-term ingestion of ARW resulted in a reduction in the levels of glucose, triglycerides, and total cholesterol in the blood”(Dan Jin, Sung Hoon Ryu, Hyun Won Kim, Eun Ju Yang, Soo Jung Lim, Yong Suk Ryang, Choon Hee Chung, Seung Kyu Park, Kye Jae Lee). Further medical research discovered that drinking reduced water prevents Alloxan induced cell damage which causes type 1-diabetes mellitus. Scientist conducting the study concluded “These results suggest that Reduced Water protects pancreatic beta-cells from alloxan-induced cell damage by preventing alloxan-derived ROS generation. Reduced Water may be useful in preventing alloxan-induced type 1-diabetes mellitus”(Li Y, Nishimura T, Teruya K, Maki T, Komatsu T, Hamasaki T, Kashiwagi T, Kabayama S, Shim SY, Katakura Y, Osada K, Kawahara T, Otsubo K, Morisawa S, Ishii Y, Gadek Z, Shirahata S).

Seeing the Benefits

Ionized water benefits the body in many ways especially for diabetic patients since medical research has shown its ability to “significantly reduced the blood glucose concentration and improve glucose tolerance”(Kim MJ) in diabetes mellitus cases. Anti cancer research into alkaline waters benefits has shown that “inhibitory effects have also been observed in the growth of tumor and cancer cells”(Nishikawa R, Komatsu T).

In addition to these medically researched health benefits the water clusters produced inside the electrolysis chamber in your water ionizer machine are micro-clustered. Meaning they possess 4 to 6 H2O molecules per cluster compared to the normal 12 to 24 molecules per cluster in tap, bottled, and distilled water. These reduced size water clusters are easier for your bodies cells to absorb through their cell walls and allow for two to three times faster re-hydration over all other drinking water sources. The smaller sized water clusters also help to detoxify and cleanse your body. In fact when you drink alkaline ionized water you will notice its light smooth texture which allows it to go down faster and easier than ordinary water which has a solid flat texture. Drinking ionized water is the perfect complement to any alkaline diet especially those based on balancing the alkaline balance in the body.

Use the acidic water produced by your machine as great chemical free disinfectant which can be used to wash off bacteria and pesticides from fruits and vegetables. In fact research has shown “electrolyzed water is up to 80 times more effective at killing pathogens than chlorinated water and it does this without the toxicity”(Electrolyzed Water).

With all these advantages over an ordinary drinking water filter system, having an alkaline water machine in your kitchen will not only give you many health benefits from drinking the water it also supplies a simple chemical free way to sterilize and “kill food-borne bacteria such as salmonella, E.coli, and listeria”(CNN, Liu C) when preparing meals in your home.
