Alkaline Water & Arthritis Is A Good Mixture
After months of pain that began to increase, my friend was diagnosed with mild osteoarthritis in her upper spine/neck area. She could live with the pain, but it also affected her “golf” arm. THAT she couldn’t live with. She started chiropractic treatment which helped a lot, but she was told the treatments could only do “so much,” so the goal was to reduce the inflammation and get her golf swing back.
After several months’ of treatment and a second series of X-rays, her inflammation was negligible, her upper spine was moving well, and her pain was pretty much gone. A few twinges here and there, and yes, taking calcium and increasing core exercises helped, but she also told her doctor that she’d been drinking pure alkaline water for at least six months since being diagnosed. Based on his past experience with other patients with her condition, he was impressed and surprised. He’s now an advocate of alkaline water as a part of osteoporosis and arthritis care/prevention.
Well here’s some news: if the acidic levels in your body are high, your body’s immune system doesn’t function very well. And if the immune system isn’t functioning to capacity, your body starts crashing—joints and soft tissue need cell nutrition, which doesn’t happen in an acidic environment. High acidity also contributes to bone loss, a.k.a. osteoporosis.
By increasing your body’s alkaline levels, your cells and tissues begin rejuvenating, which apparently is part of what helped my friend’s health improve. She continues chiropractic therapy, takes appropriate vitamins and minerals to stave off further bone loss, and boosts her immune system by drinking eight glasses of 9.5 pH alkaline water daily—available only through water ionizer machines.
