Genie’s alkaline water has a PH of 9.5 and is available with lemon essential oil or good old fashioned plain. Alkaline water will help neutralise acid in the bloodstream, leading to increased oxygen levels and faster hydration – hanging hungover heads take note! If your body is too acidic due to processed foods, medication, stress, pollution etc to compensate your body has to borrow minerals from your bones, teeth and organs to neutralize the excess acidity. Therefore it is important for the body to maintain a pH balance.
‘The Body’ Elle Macpherson talked about adding alkaline based food and drinks to her diet in a recent magazine article:
“An acidic body is out of balance. Today’s diet of processed food, sugar, alcohol, too much red meat, dairy and coffee – especially for me – along with stress and lack of sleep can affect the way the body functions. My diet was okay but I was busy, eating on the run and sleeping four hours a night. I was feeling tired and toxic and my solution was to take a plethora of synthetic vitamins. After I made lifestyle changes and started to become more alkaline, I noticed benefits right across the board. I felt lighter, lost stubborn weight around my middle and had better digestion and no IBS. It also started to show on the outside – they call it the ‘alkaline glow’. My skin felt moisturised when I’ve always had dry skin. My hairdresser commented that my hair was strong and was growing quickly.”
Drink up everyone!!!!
