• Fluoride Is A Carcinogen
Fluoride was found to be an equivocal carcinogen by the National Cancer Institute Toxicological Program.1
Further studies by the New Jersey Department of Health have now confirmed a 6.9 fold increase in bone cancer in young males.2
Earlier studies had found a 5% increase in all types of cancers in fluoridated communities.3
• Fluoride Increases Hip Fractures
Drinking fluoridated water will double the number of hip fractures for both older men and women.4 5
Extremely low levels of water fluoridation 0.1 ppm still produced statistically significant increased hip fractures. (Bordeaux Study JAMA 1994)
• Fluoride Increases Infertility
Infertility in women was found to increase with water fluoridation.
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) scientists reported a close correlation between decreasing total fertility rates in women between ages of 10 and 49, and increasing fluoride levels.
They also reported that a review of all of the animal studies done to date shows that fluoride adversely affects fertility in most animal species.6
• Fluoride Increases Fluorosis
Opaque white spots and brown ugly teeth caused by fluoride is called Fluorosis.
Fluorosis currently affects one out of five or more children in this nation although it is rarely seen in California.
California is the least fluoridated state with less than 16% of the population drinking artificially fluoridated water.
• Fluoride Does NOT Reduce Tooth Decay
Fluoride is not effective in reducing tooth decay. No correlation was found between the level of fluoride in water and dental caries.7 8 9 10 11
There appears to be a genetically related increase in tooth decay for Hispanics, Indians, Native Americans and Asians.
Decay is related to the educational and economic level of the parents.12 13 14
• Fluoride Is Unapproved By FDA
The FDA considers fluoride an unapproved new drug for which there is no proof of safety or effectiveness.
The FDA does not consider fluoride an essential nutrient.
• Fluoride Is Highly Toxic
The International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology has classified Fluoride as an unapproved dental medicament due to its high toxicity.

The first report shows the measurement of a frequency test done on water from Japan’s standard tap…

The line width is used to determine the size of the water molecule… Tap water results in a 105.981Hz frequency response.

The second report shows the measurement of the frequency test done on water from a Chanson Water ionizer…

Ionized alkaline water results in a 47.820Hz response, about half that of standard tap water. This result supports the statement that ionized alkaline water can better penetrate tissue, and hydrate places that a standard larger water molecule could not get into.

Cora shares why she drinks ionized alkaline water, and why she gives it to her students and clients.

A common side effect of drinking alkaline water is weight loss, generally 10-15 pounds, just from the water.

Some people can loose up to 60 pounds by drinking the water and changing some diet habits.

Fat builds up and is used as a buffer when your body becomes too acidic - it neutralizes it. Alkaline water helps the body balance its internal pH levels, which make the fat unnecessary.

You can now get “nature’s” alkaline, ionized water straight from your sink.

Cortisol is known as the “Stress” hormone. Too much of it can cause bodily dysfunction.

*Scientific research has found the following associated with stress and excess cortisol levels: Heart Disease, Cancer, Aging, Addiction, Anxiety, Anger, Depression, Muscle Wasting, Insomnia, “Burn Out”, Fatigue, Low Production at Work, Diabetes, High Blood Pressure, and Brain Damage.

Dehydration - Causes cortisol and stress levels to increase. One of the best ways to control stress and elevated cortisol levels is to keep well hydrated. Dehydration is associated with aging, addiction, stress, insomnia, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, anxiety, and depression.” Dr. F. Batmanghelidj, MD. Alkaline ionized water passes through your tissues more easily because of its smaller molecular clusters. In fact, ionized water is up to six times more hydrating than conventional water.

Acid PH Balance - Stress and anxiety increase cortisol, and are the principal acid pH generators aside from diet and acidic beverage consumption. An acid pH balance in turn causes an increase in stress and cortisol levels. Drinking alkaline, ionized water is one of the most powerful ways to quickly detoxify the body by eliminating acid wastes and so restoring and maintaining your body’s pH balance for optimal health and well being.

Free Radicals - Cell damage by free radicals is called oxidative stress and is a primary cause of aging and disease. The breakdown of cortisol and adrenaline produces free radicals, which in turn produces higher cortisol levels. Stress therefore is synonymous with oxidative damage. By providing your body with antioxidants, you can help control cortisol levels and stress. Alkaline ionized water carries a negative electrical charge and possesses millions of antioxidants, rapidly detoxifying your body and providing one of the most powerful sources of anti aging antioxidants available.

Testing by Ronnie Ruiz, a researcher with Chanson Water USA (www.chansonwater.com), manufacturer of water ionizers, has changed all that. His results found that soaking produce in alkaline ionized water will revive the antioxidant properties of plant foods - in a similar way that electric shock can revive a heart patient.

Using a sophisticated antioxidant measuring tool called an ORP meter, Ruiz measured the oxidation reduction potential (ORP) of organic backyard tomatoes each hour after picking - and then again each hour after they had been soaking in electrolyzed alkaline ionized water.

Ruiz found that the electrical energy in alkaline ionized water donates its electrons right back into the produce - causing it to have measurably more negative ORP and antioxidants than before it had been placed in the ionized water. This is great news for anyone who wants to benefit from the healing power of living food.

Also, soaking fruits and vegetables in high alkaline water for approximately 10 minutes will remove any waxes or pesticides from non-organic produce - further protecting our health.

In California, up to 15 percent of wells in agricultural areas exceed a federal contaminant threshold, according to studies. Major waterways like the Chesapeake Bay have been seriously damaged by agricultural pollution, according to government reports.

In Arkansas and Maryland, residents have accused chicken farm owners of polluting drinking water. In 2005, Oklahoma’s attorney general sued 13 poultry companies, claiming they had damaged one of the state’s most important watersheds.

It is often difficult to definitively link a specific instance of disease to one particular cause, like water pollution. Even when tests show that drinking water is polluted, it can be hard to pinpoint the source of the contamination.

Since diseases first began to plague the earth, man has continuously looked for the perfect medicine to cure all the sickness. At the same time, man is also looking for a way to prevent all the possible sickness for people to live longer and experience life to the fullest.

These ambitions of man have led to the development of medicine as we know it. Surgeons have become more specialized and expert in very sensitive areas of the human body such as the heart and the brain. These people can now operate without any fuss on a brain of a human or even the live pumping heart of man in the operating room. At the same time, there are also alternative medicines being developed and introduced to the public such as herbal capsules and herbal therapies.

There is one alternate therapy being introduced to the public and being constantly supported by various practitioners. This therapy is practically free, safe and can be done without the help of any specialist. The therapy is called Water Therapy.

Water Therapy is really simple. You drink 1.5 litres or roughly six glasses of water in one go, first thing in the morning. You do that even before brushing your teeth or washing your face. You must then fast for at least an hour from any food or drink and that’s it. You may wonder why 1.5 liters. It’s the estimated amount of water you can take so that your body can be cleansed with the use of water. The proponents of this therapy believe that it will clean all toxins found in your body and release them via sweat or urinal excretions.

Before we look into its effects, let’s consider first the dangers of this therapy. People have shown hesitation to this kind of therapy since there is a potential of water intoxication – a fatal disease that can happen from drinking water. This can be prevented by drinking clean / pure water i.e. alkaline ionized water and give intervals in drinking the whole 1.5 liters i.e. you could drink 4 glasses and wait for 2 minutes before drinking the balance 2. People have also shown hesitation since drinking 1.5 liters will make you urinate several times in an hour following the water therapy. This is true. However, doing water therapy daily; would cause your body to eventually adjust to the water intake.

The proponents of this therapy claim that several illnesses can be controlled with it including diabetes, acidity, constipation, hypertension etc.

However, if you are seriously ill, make sure to contact your physician / doctor first and get their confirmation before chugging down this volume of water. Sometimes there are patients who are advised against drinking too much water as it would be harmful to their health. But if you’re not a special patient and see no complications in your body, it might just work for you.
