How to Make Alkaline Drinking Water
There are many desirable alkaline drinking water benefits.
Drinking alkaline water can help to reduce the overall acidity level of the
body, making it more resistant to problems such as heart disease, cancer,
allergies, weight problems, and premature aging. Maintaining an alkaline pH
level can help the body eliminate toxins naturally, which will result in
overall better health. If you want to make your own alkaline drinking water,
there are several methods that you can use.
The Simplest Home Method for How To Make Alkaline
Drinking Water
If you want to get started with a more alkaline diet, you
can make your own alkaline water simply and inexpensively at home, using items
you probably already have on hand. A glass jug with a tight screw-on lid can
make a perfect container for your water. Fill the container with drinking
water. You can use water from your tap, bottled drinking water, or even
distilled water if desired. Leave enough space in the jug to allow it to be
easily shaken and mixed. Then, add a half teaspoon of ordinary baking soda to
the jug, and shake thoroughly to mix. Then, test the water with a pH test
strip, which you can usually find anywhere that sells water testing supplies,
such as a pool store. The goal is to achieve about a 8.5 to 9.0 pH level. If
testing shows the water has not yet reached this alkaline level, add just a bit
more baking soda and retest. Keep track of how much baking soda you need to
use, to make the process easier when you make your next batch. You can now
store your jug of alkaline water in the refrigerator, just as you would any
ordinary drinking water. Shaking the jug before serving is always a good idea.
Alkaline Drops and Tablets
There are other methods you can use besides the baking soda
method. You can also purchase alkaline drops or tablets which you can add to
your drinking water. There are a number of different brands available, which
can usually be found online or at a health food store. Be sure that any
alkaline products you purchase are designed for consumption. Alkaline drops can
be very handy to take with you, allowing you to add a couple of drops to a
glass of water before drinking. They can be especially handy for those who
travel a lot. Be sure to take some pH testing strips with you as well so that
you can be sure you are achieving the proper alkaline level.
Alkaline Water Machines and Filters
There are also special filters and machines that you can buy
to help streamline your production of alkaline water. Jug filters can be quite
handy, but be sure to use tap water instead of distilled water, because these
filters usually require mineral content in order to work properly. There are
also a number of specialized ionizer machines on the market which are designed
specifically to create alkaline water. By investing in one of these machines,
you’ll have the assurance of knowing that you’ll be able to create water with
the proper alkaline level for all your daily uses, such as food preparation and
cleaning, in addition to making drinking water. You’ll be able to choose from
models that fit on the faucet, sit on the countertop, or install under the
sink.
