Water exists in all parts of our body system. It’s so important to our body that if our water content in our body drops to 7% of body weight, the whole system will collapse. When we were born, almost 75% of our body retains water and as we age, it drops to 50% or less.

So, everyday we need to replenish our water by drinking water. We drinks coffee, tea, soda and a whole lot other types of drinks. Drinking at least 8 glasses of water should be able to satisfy your basic water need. A plain water should be fine. . A good way to check your body water’s requirement is simply checking your urine quality and frequency of urination. The paler the colour, the better. Most of our bodily fluid lost through urination.

The fact confirmed that water is paramount for our body functions.  Having said that, let us asked ourselves this simple question, how is the quality of water that enters our body. Should we drink our water straight from tap. Should we drinks a lot of acidic drinks such as coffee and juices. Should we care at all?  The answer lies with your. However, it is good for our body if we allow only the best type of water enter our body.

Installing a water filter system is a good step. At least, the water will be free from hazardous chemicals such as chlorine and minerals. A next step in water filtration is to add value to the filtrate or water after undergoing filtration process. Alkaline water is such an example. The alkaline water will have a ph above 7 or in the region of 10. Our blood has a pH value of 7.4. An alkaline water ionizer is one of the best water filter that convert tap water to high alkalinity state.

Some of the benefits of drinking alkaline water is that it helps in neutralizing acidic metabolic wastes such as lactic acid, uric acid, sulphuric acid, and phosphoric acid akin to undergoing a detoxification treatment. It  is also helps in removing cholesterol and fat deposits in our body. Indirectly it can contribute to reducing our weight.

Water is life. Give your health the best possible head start by drinking alkaline water so that we can live much healthier and longer.
