Alkaline Water 101
ZenWTR is considered an Alkaline Water with a pH of 9.5. To understand what that means and why it’s important, let’s go back to biology class with a refresher on the pH scale.
Some Helpful Facts:
- pH is a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of various substances, including our body’s fluids and tissues
- The acidity or alkalinity of different solutions, including our blood, is indicated on the pH scale ranging from 0 (totally acidic) to 14 (totally base or “alkaline”)
- Our bodies are healthiest when we’re at a pH of approximately 7.4 pH
- An increase in acid, believed to be caused by a diet high in acidic foods and beverages lower in pH, may overwhelm the body’s acid-base control systems, causing the blood to tend toward acidity
- Consuming alkaline foods and beverages that are higher on the pH scale may help regulate and pull your body out of an acidic state, helping to avoid several health issues
- Early evidence indicates that a diet high in alkaline foods/ low in acid-producing foods could help to:
- prevent kidney stones
- keep bones and muscles strong
- improve heart health and brain function
- boost the immune system
- reduce lower back pain
- lower risk for type 2 diabetes
- aid in digestion
