What's Up STACKERS!Β
You know what day it is, it's "Selfie Sunday" so I just had to bust out that iPhone and take a selfie with my stacks of water... it's been a while. π€£
Is drinking "good" water important? What is considered "good" water? Who knows lol. It's just something that we don't really think about much as it comes free to our homes in unlimited amounts.
For years (about 10), I've even been drinking a different kind of H20 called Alkaline Water. So what is it? It's basically just water with a higher PH level.Β
You can raise the PH level of water by just adding minerals but who wants to drink "tap water" these days filled with fluoride, chlorine and god knows what.
Alkaline water is pretty controversial as many people say they have lots of health benefits when drinking it but other are saying it's a hoax (placebo effect).Β π€·πΌββοΈ
Well you know what, if it make me "feel good" drinking it by the "placebo effect", just give me some more. π
So Charles, what kind of water do you drink?
The best water for me to drink in my opinion is called "Real Water". You probably seen this water at tons of health stores like whole foods.Β
It's very hard to explain but this water taste "clean" compared to others. I'm not sure why but it actually "taste good" but there is no "taste" π€ͺ
Here are some pics of that "Good Water" and it goes great with that morning coffee (organic of course). β
Real Water is based in Las Vegas so I actually get the 5 Gallons Bottles delivered to the house but it seems to me that the delivery driver forgot to come by this week. π€¬
I had to pick some gallons of "Real Water" up at a local health food store called Sprouts and guess what happened? A whopping $5.99 per gallon! What a scam but ya know what? I can't go a day without drinking my "Real Water" so I bought three. π¬
So what kind of water do you guys drink? You should give "Real Water" a try, it might change the way you drink water for the rest of your life.
Maybe next time, I'll also share with you guys my $5000 Kangen Machine that alkalizes my water from home. That's another whole story to tell lol
Have an awesome Sunday "Funday" and Keep on STACKIN! π
P.S. For those who's interested in following my "Content" and "Daily" Posts... you can just follow me @stackin to get my updates.
I never heard of alkaline water..i thought sea water is alkaline water ...but ..Yeah drinking good amount of water ...added mineral really help in digestion, absorption, circulation, transportation of nutrients, and maintenance of body temperature...
I live in the dessert, need to drink more water π
best water is clean water...the cleanest water you can find is distilled water and it's also natures own way of cleaning itself.
Distilled water can be found in abundance for free which goes hand in hand with minimizing my dependency on fiat money! ;)
Real Water has 15 to 20 ppm tds while machine made distilled water got 1 to 2 ppm (lower number the better).
Distilled water is found everywhere as that is the only water nature provides.
"Distillation duplicates natureβs hydrologic cycle"
Ionized water is NOT water but hydroxide which creates a immune response in the body when consumed. Should definitely NOT be used a a source of every day water intake. There's a reason why these machines are classified as medical equipment. I myself bought one for $3000 and learned the hard way about this through extensive experience...
"Drink distilled water purified natureβs way: evaporation and condensation.β
βIt is not possible in the very nature of things βin the organization of our bodies and in its relations to external objectsβ to improve upon pure water, neither as a circulating fluid conveying nourishment to the tissues of our bodies, nor as a quencher of thirst."
DOCTORS AND EXPERTS WITH THE COURAGE TO TELL THE TRUTH ABOUT DISTILLED WATER
Yeah I like to mix it up at times, I know when Iβm trying to flush out the body and lean up, drinking distilled water for 2 weeks works π
Great to hear @stackin! :) There's also a half truth being spread surrounding distilled water, that it leeches minerals from the body. It's true...but only the inorganic ones you don't want in your body in the first place. The organic minerals are already assimilated by the body so you won't have to worry about that! :)
"The idea that distilled water leaches minerals from the body is a half-truth. There are 2 major mineral groups, inorganic and organic. The truth part that they failed to mention is that distilled water leaches the inorganic minerals from the body. Your body cannot use inorganic minerals. Your body is organic. It all comes down to the electrical charge. Organic matter has a negative charge and inorganic matter has a positive charge. Distilled water is a bath of negatively charged water molecules. We know that opposites attract so magnetically distilled water is attracted to inorganic matter. It rips inorganics out of your body. It dissolves it molecule by molecule. Distilled water makes your cells so happy because it's nothing but pure H2O. It brings you to full fruition and enlivens you. It removes every single particle of dirt in your body if you drink enough of it."

Nice, thanks for the info .. First time read about this
Great post from you
Thanks for sharing
I don't want to rain on your parade but there is no benefit to alkalize water.
Best water to drink is San Pellegrino Carbonated Spring Water out of a glass bottle...try it for a few weeks and tell me what you think, a nice COLD bottle on a hot summer day when you're thirsty is probably the best time ever lol
Here this is a short video about why you shouldn't alkalize your body
I got cases of those already but alkaline water is dangerous is nonsense. Everyone has their opinion lol
alkaline water isnt dangerous, alkalizing your body can be dangerous.
And if you are drinking pellegrino then you are countering any alkalizing any other water might be doing since it is acidic so theres that too lol
I think having an acid body from all the nasty drinks out there is more dangerous lol
The body is different PH everywhere, from blood to tongue to saliva, stomach acid is like 1-3 PH...check out more of Eric Bergs videos he explains it well
Have you looked into Kangen?
Whatβs up boss, yeah Iβm a 6a Member! I got like three machines and one is the k8. π
I drink water from the pools on the strip. Cleanest water around
From the flamingo or hard rock pool? π
Hm, I haven't heard of Real Water before (and alkaline water at that) - now I do!
We have "Berkey" water with filters for the fluoride/chlorine and who knows what else they put in our tap water.
Really glad to see someone paying attention to what kind of water they drink! Yay! And to top it off, organic coffee! Woohoo! I like you already just for highlighting
Haven't heard of Stackin... I'm going to do some research so any docs you have to speed up the learning curve is appreciated!
I said you should do ten selfies, Iβm a bit disappointed!
I'm a guy, give me a break... us men don't like rules haha π π€£
I drink all water types. I only remember ever drinking one type of water that I didnβt like, but I think itβs been discontinued. Iβm not a picky water drinker
You besssss try some Real Water! π π

Alkaline water is more than just a placebo effect imo. Most of us these days eat more acidic and inorganic food(soda, sugar, dairies, etc.) which we don't know are harmful and decreases the pH level of our body. Alkaline water helps balance these effects and keep our health on top. I'm drinking alkaline water at least 1L a day too. Price is not that high, and yes it's tastes good too!
Totally agree, people eat like shut these days... I do it also, we got to balance it out like you said π
One of my best movies of all time π π€£
Forget the water! I'm just here wondering if you get bored making so much money on the daily lol. .indeed the ocean is vast.
Allow me to drift just this once. Aargh
Wowzers! lol... it was hard in the beginning, just keep at it and youβll be better than me. Iβm almost been here for a year π
Haha. Damn it. An year??? Really? This is my 4th month in!
I must be doing sth wrong, I'll continue to do my best. Thank you Thank you Stackin king.
Here's to more SP.
Our family is drinking mineral water and like most of other Filipinos, but my mom(God bless here soul) used to drink alkaline water @stackin. She said it has health benefits, I also drink it from time to time before it's just a bit expensive compared to mineral and she orders the 5-gallon container every week. ;)
Yeah, I love the alkaline water. It does make me feel more hydrated, anything that makes me feel better, Iβm deinking it lol
I drink that LIT SINK wotah
That's funny haha
Make sure there is no plastic in it. I found plastic in my evian bottle and it freaked me out. I did a post about it. I have been drinking distilled water for years and use bottled water when I am out and about.
Yeah, got to be careful with that these days. People donβt want be drinking plastic lol
really freaked me out ... I want to buy a distiller.
Great selfie and productive words regarding the Steemit, yes the powering up process is really important for the Steem Ecosystem and to grow on this platform we have to post, upvote and comment regularly because that will increase our reputation and in turn we will grow on this Platform. And i drink tap water so i never thought about the water with real money because there is water scam outside and i will try this water for sure and name is also great as "Real Water". Thanks for sharing and wishing you an great day. Stay blessed. π
Hmmm water ... I believe any water is a good water actually as long as it is colorless, odorless and tasteless
Drinking good water has a lot of health benefit tho I tend to drink lots of it in the morning ... just makes my day a successful one !!! Can't explain that any better ...
πππ
Not sure about tap water, itβs filled with fluoride and garbage lol
That's probably because the storage is filled with garbage and fluoride !!!
A friend adjusts the pH by adding carbonate. A very nice sharing good health. @stackin
Yeah, people also use Apple cider vinager, lemons or lime. I like my water 100% filtered though π
Here in Nigeria am not sure there is Real water, mostly you would see Eva, Aquadana, nestle, Polar etc and the satchet ones, personally i drink any of them available but not tap water because our tank isn't good for now.
Am interested in knowing about the kangen machine and how you use it so please don't forget to share it later.
I heard, Iβve never been there before and I think Americans are to pampered here. Kangen machines are very expensive, Iβll do a post about it soon π
Give your heart a taste! when drinking your real water, i am geographically a long way from tasting it but i guarantee you that the water must be free of microorganisms and if it tastes nice even if it doesn't have it because the water doesn't have it, then enjoy it.
Cleanest water ever π
I make my own alkaline water in a glass jug.
Yeah, plastics are harmful to us and the environment. Iβve seen a lot of other companies using glass or cardboard which is 100% better.
Gotta agree to disagree on this one... water is water, as long as it doesn't have any trace elements of bad stuff in it. At least that's what I have come to believe based on my limited exposure to the science. I drink the cheap brand of bottled water or, even better, the tap :-D
I just canβt put that fluoride and chloride in my body from tap water... π π
It is a hoax mate. But loads of people think itβs beneficial. So each to their own.
I was more concerned about how you were wearing glasses indoors and had somehow put your cap on the wrong way around.
It got your attention didnβt it π
Real water is awesome, I definetely believe in alkelized water is the best!
I installed a reverse osmosis filtration system under my sink a couple years ago. I recently added a remineralizer because I think it was depleting my electrolytes without it. I also started taking a multivitamin for the same reason. Haven't tried the alkaline water, but it's probably the same or close to what I'm producing out of my tap water with the RO filtration system. Over the long run I think I'm probably saving some coin by filtering myself over buying bottles.
Most Bottle Water are trash π π
Alkalinity can be confirmed with just a litmus paper or whatever that's one called where you could buy in a pharmacy. Some do really advertise that it's Alkaline water but it's not!
I got tons of those strips π
Thankd @stackin
Staying hydrated is the best thing you can do for your body,however too much alkalize water isn't optimal for your body either π
I like those water products.
http://www.selfhealth.co.uk/plato-h2o-water-additive.html
http://www.aydowater.us/en
I recommend both.
Ah nearly forgot my daily supply:
https://www.leogant.de/kuechenfilter/leogant-avaio
It is a water filter and a water energizer which brings source quality back.
Just normal water is enough for me ;)
Alkaline water long term isn't good for you. The reason is it demineralizes your body. The best type of water to drink is just spring water.
