Alkaline Water at Ashiyu

Have you tried ionized alkaline drinking water?

That’s quite a mouthful, but the tech-y name belies the dramatic effect it can have on people who drink it steadily.

Sufferers of untreatable chronic conditions such as multiple sclerosis and arthritis are finding relief through this simple, inexpensive strategy. And otherwise healthy people are enjoying new energy, sounder sleep and a youthful complexion.

What is ionized alkaline water? It is water that has passed between electrified metal plates so that the acid and alkaline components are separated, then the alkaline side is dispensed into a container. Users are advised to drink between a quart and two quarts a day. The alkalinity works to cancel the acidity of the modern diet. Soda, coffee, alcohol, carbohydrates all present an acid burden that the body works hard to counteract and maintain its naturally alkaline state.

The ionization makes the water electron rich, so that it becomes a powerful antioxidant that is capable of super-hydrating the body. This is seen in the “dewy” complexion that alkaline water drinkers are known for.

In Japan, alkaline water is so common that roughly 20% of homes own a water alkalizing unit. In Portland,  early adopters prefer to buy the water at specialty outlets that have a alkalizing unit. One such place is Ashiyu Spas in Sellwood, that sells the water by the gallon for $3 per gallon. They are found at 8015 SE 13th Ave, ph: 503-232-0920.

Another water “bar” is Healthy Spaces south of Portland in Willamette. Their number is 503-655-3565.
