Is Alkaline Water Really Beneficial?

Alkaline water known to change their constitution, but experts and doctors say that the body will maintain the acid-base balance, even if the more acid or more alkaline food to eat into the kidney will naturally regulate blood acid The base value is maintained at about 7.4, and want to change the constitution, the use of alkaline water is impossible.

Experts under certain conditions, the electrolysis of water is good water

People to drink alkaline water (see research), in addition to the market of bottled water, alkaline water is by the electrolysis of water electromechanical solution, the NTU Institute of Biochemistry, Professor Lu Feng Island more than ten years ago, the publication of the electrolysis of water is good water, "the book industry Bong Bible in sales when big fight Lu Feng Island brand, claimed that the professor of medicine at National Taiwan University, confirmed that drinking alkaline water electrolysis can eliminate free radicals, antioxidant, Lu Feng, Chau helpless.

Lu Feng Chau stressed, the electrolyzed water is good water, but only in certain conditions, "according to his understanding, the commercially available water ionizer machine because there is no real" oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) "is not effective, the industry to be declared effect, come up with their own machine testing to prove with the experimental data do not take his book to hang guarantee.

He also said that alkaline electrolyzed water generator or ionized water machines will change over time, ORP value from low to high, only the electrolysis of water to the newborn against free radicals, so he strongly suspected that the packing effect of alkaline water, because these bottled water put for a long time, the ORP value is very high.

Changhua University of Education, Department of Chemistry, Professor Hu Jinghan believes that the stomach is acid, alkaline foods into the stomach after will be in and out, one hundred bottles of alkaline water to drink into the stomach is "Alkaline", from the no function. The alkaline water is gastrointestinal absorption, one can get into the body's cells and blood, human complex mechanism to maintain the body's acid-base balance, the scientific community, studies have shown that alkaline water is beneficial to humans.

Chang Gung Memorial Hospital clinical toxicology Renlin Jie Liang pointed out that the so-called acidic or alkaline constitution Chinese argument, Western medicine, eat acidic or alkaline foods, and enter the human body are neutral, if too much acid or alkali, kidney will start immediately. Uremic patients, due to poor kidney function, the body will be acidic. Panic disorder caused by hyperventilation will result in alkalosis, carbon dioxide to a large number of discharge, dyspnea, chest tightness, so that the body alkaline.

Eat more alkaline food or water anti-perniciousWing of the new clinic, vice president stressed that changing the constitution is difficult to rely on drink, and eat into too alkaline food or water, may also burn the esophagus, affecting gastrointestinal function and metabolism, it is best to eat the food of acid-base equilibrium In fact, as long as the intake of vegetables, fruits would be sufficient, alkaline water look to it as a "casual drinks.
