What Doctors Are Saying About Ionized Alkaline Water
Dr. Don Colbert
“I have had countless numbers of patients with painful osteoarthritis on many different medications for arthritis. Many have been pain free within a couple of months after adjusting their urine pH to 7.0 to 7.5. Which is accomplished by consuming adequate amounts of alkaline water and alkaline foods. As a result, many are able to go off of their medications.”
“Hexagonal, alkaline water is especially effective in treating those with chronic disease.”
“Your body thrives in an alkaline environment since it is able to detoxify more efficiently than in an acidic environment. In an alkaline environment your tissues get rid of impurities more efficiently. When cancer patients come into my office to begin nutritional treatment, their bodies are almost always very acidic and toxic. My first task is to get their tissues alkalinized with alkaline water.”
“I have recommended alkaline hexagonal water to even my youngest patients. In 2005 a ten-year old girl and her parents came to my office in South Carolina. The girl had crippling juvenile rheumatoid arthritis and weighed only fifty-two pounds. Her hands were swollen like mitts, and her knees were swollen as large as softballs. I put her on hexagonal, alkaline water, one to two quarts a day. A week and a half later she was pain free, and her swelling was significantly diminished. When she arrived she was wheelchair bound, but she was actually able to walk without pain after only a week and a half of drinking hexagonal, alkaline water. Her pare
nts were ecstatic. We raised the pH of her tissues. After a month, her hands were almost normal size.”

”I have administered over 5000 gallons of this water for about every health situation imaginable. I feel that restructured alkaline water can benefit everyone.”
“Acid wastes literally attack the joints, tissues, muscles, organs and glands causing minor to major dysfunction.”
“The newest technology in drinking water today is electronically restructured alkaline water. A special unit yields alkaline water and lowers the millivoltage. The water is reconfigured into a lighter, simpler form that is definitely more absorbable in the body.”
“After years of very positive continuous clinical experiments that I am conducting with hundreds of clients using electronically restructured alkaline water, it is my opinion that this technology will change the way in which all health providers and the public will approach their health in the coming years.”
“Too much acidity in the body is like having too little oil in the car. It just grinds to a halt one lazy Sunday afternoon. There you are – stuck. The body does the same thing.”
“Restructured water alkalizes by displacing acids and replacing alkalines. The other health benefit of restructured water is the imparted frequencies, which are not present in distilled water. These frequencies assist in acid displacement toward the elimination channels.”
“Any stressor that the mind or body interprets and internalizes as too much to deal with, leaves an acid residue. Even a mild stressor can cause a partial or total acid-forming reaction. The countless names attached to illness do not really mater. What does matter is that they all come from the same root cause: too much tissue acid waste in the body.”

“Water Ionization could be one of the most important health breakthroughs in our era.”
“Japanese and some American hospital research have found ionized water useful for the treatment of cancer, diabetes, intestinal problems, liver problems and other chronic diseases. Alkalinized ionized water can play a powerful role in reversing the degenerative results of an acid system. This is a revolutionary health breakthrough. The ionized water replicates the ‘living qualities’ of high‐altitude mountain spring water.”
“When you create a healthy pH (in your body), you create a significantly more disease-resistant body.”

“Drinking four to six glasses of alkaline water a day will help to neutralize over acidity and over time will help to restore your buffering ability. Alkaline water should be used when conditions of over acidity develop, such as cold, flu or bronchitis. Like vitamins C, E and Beta Carotene, alkaline water acts as an antioxidant because of its excess supply of free electrons. This can help the body against the development of heart disease, strokes, immune dysfunctions, and other common ailments.”
“The benefits of the alkaline water created through electrolysis far exceed just its ability to gently raise the pH of the cells and tissues of the body and to neutralize acids. Because the alkaline water has gained a significant number of free electrons through the electrolysis process, it is able to donate these electrons to active oxygen free radicals in the body, thereby becoming a super antioxidant. By donating its excess free electrons, alkaline water is able to block the oxidation of normal tissue by free oxygen radicals.”

Dr. Hayashi states that bad diets such as meat and potatoes, fried foods, soft drinks colas, and sugars build up acidic salts in the body. Often these deposits, by having to be stored away from the blood flow, can remain in the body for decades. He recommends the consumption of ionized alkaline water, which will slowly and gently wash these salts away.
“Chlorinated tap water is polluted with non-biological chemicals and negative energy imprints. It is also devoid of bio-energy and so may be regarded as being badly polluted as well as ‘dead’. Alkaline living water is regarded by a growing number of health care professionals as the best water to drink and is listed as a medical device in Japan for the treatment of degenerative diseases.”

”The fluids in the cells of most people’s bodies are overly acidic. This can cause a lot of problems. It prevents your body from neutralizing toxins, and leaves you more susceptible to the cell-damaging free radical oxidation that leads to cancer and other diseases.”
“Just about every condition I can think of, from arthritis to diabetes to cancer, is associated with acidity. It is no coincidence that many of our modern habits such as alcohol consumption, smoking, eating sugar, and stress, all tend to increase acidity. The only parts of our body that are supposed to be acidic are the contents of the stomach, the skin, and perspiration. Virtually everything else is supposed to be at least slightly alkaline.”

On Alkaline Ionized Water
“Drinking alkaline water helps reduce the burden on the limited alkaline buffers which are needed for the body’s natural detoxification.”
“Most people are already too acidic from eating excess meat, simple carbohydrates, and sugar. Alkalinizing water is a very effective step to bring this into balance.”
“Another benefit of drinking alkaline water is that it assists in the absorption of minerals. We know that if the body is not absorbing enough minerals, it will rob minerals from the body’s mineral reserves, chiefly calcium from the bones.”
“Consuming the right type of water is vital to detoxifying the body’s acidic waste products and is one of the most powerful health treatments available.”
“We recommend that you drink 8-10 glasses per day of this alkaline water. It is one of the simplest and most powerful things that you can do to combat a wide range of disease processes. It is interesting to note that in Japan , professional sports teams drink alkaline water to improve their performance.”
“There are more benefits to “alkaline water” than simply the alkalinity or pH. The most important feature of alkaline water produced by a water alkalinizer is its oxidation reduction potential (ORP). Water with a high negative ORP is of particular value in its ability to neutralize oxygen free radicals.”
On Disease Prevention
“An important strategy for preventing or treating cancer is to maintain an alkaline environment in the body.”
“Most people don’t suddenly get a stroke or a heart attack or develop cancer, Alzheimer’s, or diabetes out of the blue. These diseases are often the end result of many years of dietary and lifestyle choices that have increased the amount of silent inflammation circulating throughout their bodies. By making lifestyle changes now, you can begin to reduce silent inflammation and cut your chances of developing serous diseases beginning today.”
“Free radicals are among the most damaging molecules in the body and are highly unstable molecules that are oxidizing agents and are electron deficient. They are a principal cause of damage and disease in the body. Oxygen free radicals contribute significantly to a broad variety of harmful conditions in the body ranging from life-threatening conditions such as heart disease, stroke and cancer, to less severe conditions such as sunburns, arthritis, cataracts, and many others. Free radicals MUST get electrons from somewhere and will steal them from whatever molecules are around, including normal, healthy tissues.”
“Damage to tissues results when free radicals strip these electrons from healthy cells. If the damage goes on unchecked, this will lead to disease. For example, the oxidation of LDL cholesterol particles in arterial walls by free radicals triggers an immune system response that results in atherosclerosis, the principal cause of heart disease. The negative ions in alkaline water from an electrolysis machine are a rich source of electrons that can be donated to these free radicals in the body, neutralizing them and stopping them from damaging healthy tissues. Specifically, these ions have the potential to engage in the chemical reactions necessary to neutralize oxygen free radicals.”
“It is well known that many chronic diseases result in excess acidity of the body (metabolic acidosis). We also know that the body tends to become more acidic due to modern dietary habits and lifestyles and the aging process itself. By drinking high negative ORP alkaline water, you combat metabolic acidosis and improve absorption of nutrients.”
“A comprehensive review comparing alkalizing diets to acidic diets reported in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition concluded that alkalizing diets improve bone density, nitrogen balance, and serum growth hormone concentrations, whereas the low grade acidosis resulting from acidic diets contributes to bone loss, osteoporosis, and loss of muscle.”
“The blood is carefully buffered to keep it in a narrow range between pH 7.35 to 7.45. The body keeps blood pH stable by utilizing alkaline buffers, chiefly bicarbonate, to neutralize acidic liquids (such as colas, which have a pH as low as 2.5) and other acidic products and byproducts. But as the blood stream receives these acidic substances, the alkaline buffers get used up.”

“People with more acidic blood were more likely to be ill. A pH range of 7.4 to 7.5 is associated with good health. When foods are metabolized, acids are produced which are neutralized by the alkaline salts (carbonates) of calcium, magnesium, potassium and sodium. Foods containing chlorine, phosphorous, sulfur and nitrogen, animal products and refined carbohydrates tend to be acid forming.”
“All disease is caused by auto-toxification (self-poisoning) due to acid accumulation in the body.”
“Now we depart from health in just the proportion to which we have allowed our alkalies to be dissipated by introduction of acid forming food in too great amount. It may seem strange to say that all disease is the same thing, no matter what its myriad modes of expression, but it is verily so.”
“It was said earlier that all we can do for disease is to stop creating this background of acid end-products of digestion and metabolism, and this is true, for if disease comes always and only from this acid collection, then it must be evident to anyone that the cure lies in the discontinuance of this accumulation.
“Pneumonia, erysipelas, typhoid fever, influenza, acute arthritis, colitis, hay fever, all subside when the body is fairly detoxicated and the diet so corrected as to stop this excessive formation of the acid end-products, simply because each was expressing the end-point of tolerance of toxins, and each was the means by which the body sought to unload this unwanted mass.”
“If the blood develops a more acidic condition, then these excess acidic wastes have to be deposited somewhere in the body. If this unhealthy process continues year after year, these areas steadily increase in acidity and their cells begin to die. Other cells in the affected area may survive by becoming abnormal, these are called malignant. Malignant cells cannot respond to brain commands. They undergo a cellular division that is out of control. This is the beginning of cancer.”

“Ionized alkaline antioxidant water improves body constituents and ensures effective healing to many illnesses. The uses of antioxidant water in gynecological patients have proved to be very effective. The main reason for its effectiveness is that this water can neutralize toxins.”
“When given antioxidant water to pre-eclamptic toxemia cases, the results are most significant. During my long years of servicing the pre-eclamptic toxemia cases, I found that the women with pre-eclamptic toxemia who consumed antioxidant water tend to deliver healthier babies with stronger muscles. A survey report carried out on babies in this group showed intelligence above average.”

“I think drinking alkaline water is the most important thing a person can do for their health.”
“This [alkalizing] program contains a whole new way of looking at diet and nutrition. When followed, it leads to a healthy, lean, trim body and an enhanced level of wellness, energy and mental clarity most people have not experienced previously.”
“Based on years of research and observation, we have concluded that over acidification of the body is the underlying cause of all disease. Because many people consume a diet primarily comprised of acid forming foods, (i.e. sugars, meat, dairy, yeast breads, coffee, alcohol, starches, etc.) rather than whole plant foods, they are frequently sick and tired.”
On toxins
“All the detoxification pathways in the body (liver-colon, kidney-bladder, skin-sweat, lung-breath, and lymphatic system) require water. When water is not supplied in abundance, wastes build up in the fluid that surrounds each cell and all the detoxification pathways become sluggish. However, the body is ingenious. It always adapts. Under the stress of dehydration your body will find places to store toxins where they will not immediately interfere with critical life processes. Toxins and wastes can end up in fatty tissue, in joints, and as deposits in arteries. In the short term, life is preserved, but the long term consequences are obvious.”

“When I was serving in the Fire Insurance Association, I used to examine many diabetic patients. Besides treating them with drugs, I provided them with ionized water. After drinking ionized water for one month, 15 diabetic patients were selected and sent to Tokyo University for further test and observations. Initially, the more serious patients were a bit apprehensive about the treatment. When the ionized water was consumed for some time, the sugar in the blood and urine ranged from a ratio of 300 mg/l to 2 mg/dc. There was a time where the patient had undergone 5 to 6 blood tests a day and detected to be within normal range. Results also showed that even 1 1/2 hour after meals, the blood sugar and urine ratio was 100 mg/dc 0 mg/dc. The sugar in the urine has completely disappeared.”“For severe kidney failure, water intake has to be restricted. However whereas ordinary tap water contains phosphate, calcium carbonate and the acidic ions… [that] tend to reduce the efficiency of the calcium ions… I feel that in controlled amounts, alkaline ionized water will strengthen the heart and increase urination. Over the next six to twelve months, the patient should maintain an alkaline diet (reduced animal protein) and continue drinking alkaline ionized water to reduce the amounts of urea and uric acid in the blood. Through my clinical experience, patients undergoing kidney dialysis should also drink alkaline ionized water as well as those patients with kidney disease who do not respond to drugs.”

It uses chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery to treat cancer. Yet none of these treatments will help very much, if after all of that, the acidic environment remains. Drinking water that has a high alkaline pH, because of its de-acidifying effect, will help in preventing cancer. In Asia, alkaline water is regularly served to patients, and is considered a regular part of treatment.”

“You can use electrical means to create water with strong reduction capability. Purification devices exist that ionize and create this type of water through electrolysis … when electrolysis occurs, active hydrogen is also produced, serving to remove excess free radicals from the body. The result is what I call “good water,” pure, clean alkaline water with plenty of minerals. Good water means water with strong reduction power that has not been polluted with chemical substances. In order to drink plenty of good water every day, even using it for cooking, I believe it is necessary to buy and use a purifier that has strong reduction power.”

“The cells of a healthy body are alkaline while the cells of a diseased body are below a pH of 7.0. The more acidic the cell, the sicker we become. If the body cannot alkalize the cells they will become acidic and thus, disease sets in. Most cells will die in the 3.5 pH range. Our bodies produce acid as a by-product of normal metabolism. Since our bodies do not manufacture alkalinity, we must supply the alkalinity from an outside source to keep us from becoming acidic and dying.”

On Overacidity
“Many people in North America live with mildly acidic internal pH, known as chronic mild acidosis. When the body is chronically over-acidic, the balancing mechanisms force the body to borrow minerals – calcium, sodium, potassium and magnesium – from the internal organs and bones so acids can be buffered or neutralized and removed from the body. Over time this process contributes to chronic disease. Chronic over-acidity has been called “the silent killer.”

“It has long been established that reactive oxygen species (ROS) [free radicals that contain the oxygen atom] cause many types of damage to biomolecules and cellular structures, that, in turn result in the development of a variety of pathologic states such as diabetes, cancer and aging.

“I am a researcher. I have researched dehydration for the past 20 years. When I discovered that the solution to most of the disease conditions of our society is not a moneymaker, I decided to take my information to the public. My research revealed that unintentional dehydration produces stress, chronic pains and many degenerative diseases. Dry mouth is not the only sign of dehydration and waiting to get thirsty is wrong. Medicine has based its understanding that it is solid matter in the body that regulates all functions of the body. I have explained scientifically at the molecular level that it is water that regulates all functions of the body including functions of solid matter. 75% of our bodies are composed of water. The brain is 85% water. It is water that energizes and activates the solid matter. If you don’t take enough water, some functions of the body will suffer. Dehydration produces system disturbances. When I use the word water cure, I am referring to curing dehydration with water.”

(Patient’s Name Hidden for Legal Reasons) is a patient in my practice with gastroesophageal reflux, which he has controlled in the past with medication. His mother requests a letter of medical necessity for a home water ionization system.
Recently (the Patient) has been drinking ionized water with significant improvement in his reflux symptoms. Although ionized water is not a recognized medical treatment for reflux, the increased pH of the water after ionization is likely to have a buffering effect on stomach acid similar to that of antacid medication, and therefore may be a reasonable treatment. Therefore I endorse the use of this system for controlling (patient’s) acid reflux.
