We would wager money that many of you are “doing the dew” or “doing what tastes right” this very moment. Before you take another gulp from your soft drink can, here are 8 facts about soda to consider that may drastically affect the quality of your health.

pH of Soda = pH of Vinegar
For one, soda, no matter who makes it, is the most acidic beverage you can buy, with a pH of about 2.5, about the same as vinegar. Why does that matter? Acid oxidizes whatever it comes in contact with. If you put soda or vinegar on metal, it will rust it quickly. Check out this table of acid levels of your favorite sodas.

Drink Soda, Leach Calcium
If you drink soda, which also contains high levels of phosphorous, you will leach calcium from your bones. Dr. Michael Murray from the Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine concluded, “It appears that increased soft drink consumption is a major factor that contributes to osteoporosis.” Furthermore, Dr. Elson Haas, author of The Detox Diet states, “Tooth loss, periodontal disease, and gingivitis can be problems, especially with a high phosphorus intake, particularly from soft drinks.”

Soda Will Dissolve your Tooth Enamel
Weak bones is just the beginning. According to Dr. James Howenstein. author of A Physician’s Guide to Natural Health Products That Work, the high sugar content of soda is awful. He states, “”In an interesting experiment the sugar from one soft drink was able to damage the white blood cells’ ability to ingest and kill bacteria for seven hours.” Dr. Marion Nestle from his book Food Politics states, “Sugar and acid in soft drinks so easily dissolve tooth enamel.”

Each Additional Soda Increases Risk for Obesity by 1.6 times
So now we’ve got weak bones, weakened immune system, and dissolving teeth. What’s next? Weight gain! Dr. Nestle also concluded, “The relationship between soft drink consumption and body weight is so strong that researchers calculate that for each additional soda consumed, the risk of obesity increases 1.6 times.”

Children Who Drink Soda Break Bones More Easily
Our children aren’t safe, either. Dr. Nestle states, “Adolescents who consume soft drinks display a risk of bone fractures three to four-fold higher than those who do not.” Dr. William Duffy from the Naval Research Institute states, “The high sugar hides the acid. Children little realize they are drinking this strange mixture of phosphoric acid, sugar, caffeine, coloring, and flavoring matter.” Greg Critser from his book Fat Land: How Americans Became the Fattest People in the World states: “A joint study by Harvard University and Boston Children’s Hospital researchers in February 2001 concluded that such excess liquid calories inhibited the ability of older children to compensate at mealtime, leading to caloric imbalance and, in time, obesity.”

Diet Soda Isn’t Any Better
For those of you with a diet soda in your hands, the news isn’t any better, in fact it’s worse! Carol Simontacchi from her book The Crazy Makers: How the Food Industry Is Destroying Our Brains and Harming Our Children states, “One liter of an aspartame-sweetened beverage can produce about fifty-six milligrams of methanol. When several of these beverages are consumed in a short period of time (one day, perhaps), as much as two hundred fifty milligrams of methanol are dumped into the bloodstream, or thirty-two times the EPA limit.” So, you’re poisoning your body, too.

And when it comes to saccharin, which is a noncaloric petroleum derivative estimated to be three hundred to five hundred times sweeter than sugar: “More than a dozen animal tests over the last thirty years have demonstrated the carcinogenic effects of saccharin in the bladder and other sites, particularly female reproductive organs, and in some instances at doses as low as the equivalent of one to two bottles of diet pop daily.”

With diet soda, you’ve gone from high calories to poisonous levels of methanal and an increased chance of developing cancer. Not a very good trade.

Could Caffeine Jeopardize the Human Race?
Then there’s the caffeine. Jean Carper from her book Food: Your Miracle Medicine : How Food Can Prevent and Cure over 100 Symptoms and Problems states, “tests at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine by Roland R. Griffiths, MD, show caffeine withdrawal can strike people who drink a single cup of strongly brewed coffee or drink caffeinated soft drinks everyday. Further, Dr. Griffiths discovered that caffeine-withdrawal symptoms include not only headache, but also fatigue, mild depression, muscle pain and stiffness, flu-like feelings, nausea and vomiting. And for women: “Those consuming at least one cup of a caffeine-containing beverage per day, such as coffee, tea or soft drinks, were more prone to PMS. And the more caffeine they consumed, the more severe their PMS symptoms.”

Caffeine causes withdrawal with symptoms mimicking a flu and for women it makes PMS even worse. But could caffeine really jeopardize the future of the human race? Yes! “A study on the relationship between caffeine and fertility found that… just one caffeinated soft drink per day was associated with a reduced monthly chance of conception of 50 percent.”

If All That Wasn’t Enough Watch Out for a Asthma and a Rash
And finally there’s the preservative used in soda. Dr. Marcia Zimmerman, author of The A.D.D. Nutrition Solution : A Drug-Free 30 Day Plan states, “Sodium benzoate Sodium benzoate is used as a preservative (microbial control) in foods, including soft drinks, fruit juices, margarine, confections, pickles, and jams. Sodium preservatives add sodium to the diet and reduce the availability of potassium. Some reported reactions to sodium benzoate include recurring urticaria (rash), asthma, and eczema.”

Still Drinking that Soda…..?
Hard to believe that so much mayhem can come from a little can or bottle, but there is absolutely nothing good or redeemable about soda. The sooner you can remove it from your diet, the better. If the FDA were doing its job, it wouldn’t be allowed on the market. If you care about your health and the quality of your life, put the Mountain Dew down!

This is the famous colon therapy video by Dr. Hiromi Shinya that Enagic Kangen Water Ionizer affiliates have been showing to potential affiliates as a way of convincing them to join their MLM program. Many affiliates are claiming that Enagic has done this research, which is completely false. They also claim that only “kangen” water can have this healthy effect, which is also false. There is no such thing as “kangen” water, only alkaline and acidic water, and any water ionizer produces both. The KYK Harmony Water Ionizer can produce water as strong as the $4000 Enagic Leveluk SD501 water ionizer in most cases and has many other features that make it a better water ionizer, like the SMPS electrical system and platinized titanium plates that are twice the size. Most importantly, you can buy three KYK Harmony Water Ionizers for the price of one Enagic Levoluk SD 501, plus some extra filters! So, if you haven’t watched the video, please do, it’s great. If you’re on the fence about becoming an Enagic rep, please read our comparison charts at http://www.waterforlifeusa.com and also read about our affiliate program, www.waterforlifeusa.com/affiliate . I think you’ll discover that the KYK Harmony is a better water ionizer, the price is fair, and you can make more money because there is only the manufacturer, us, then you in the business structure — not eight levels of commissions each time you make a sale going to people you don’t even know.

Water is not just some colorless and tasteless one dimensional liquid; on the contrary, life on earth originated from water, and all life forms depend on water to sustain them, therefore water is the fundamental foundation and source of eternal life on earth.

Without water, neither humans nor any other life forms can exist. There are some life forms which may exist without air, but none may exist without water. Simply put, there is no substitute for water.

If we can not find staples such as rice or bread, we can replace them with meat and vegetables, even if a marriage ends up in separation or divorce causing loneliness and heartache, someone else can be found to fill that hole in our lives; however, on the entire planet earth, there is no substitute that can replace water.

Life can not exist without water, and water can not be replaced with any other substance. Humanity can benefit as a whole by appreciating such a valuable and rare natural resource, and by furthering the field of knowledge of how water plays active role in environment and health.

Maintaining health and leading a healthy life style should never be confused with a service station mechanic maintaining and repairing a broken down car and restoring it to a running condition.

Further, without proper knowledge and information, no one can hope to attain any semblance of health without at first trying any reasonable sounding treatment or plausible remedy to see if there are any potential benefits. Modern conveniences and dizzying pace of scientific and industrial progress come at a price of pollution and befouled environment, making the environment increasingly unhealthy and inhospitable for humanity. Humanity is not the sole dependent on the natural environment, since all life forms on earth depend on the environment, however, without reflection or consideration humanity continues to corrupt and poison the fundamental resource of water. It is impossible for any one individual to reverse the environmental damages and poisoning of the water; however, if humanity consumes mere 1% of the water from a dependable clean source, it may improve and even reverse the damages to health caused by polluted water.

This is the most economical and by far the easiest way to restore health of modern human beings.

It is my mission to spread knowledge and information about the nature of water, and the reason why I did not sway from my course in researching the science of water, no matter the distraction or criticism I received along the way.

If the water we drink everyday can be made into better water, if the better made water can ensure and improve health as well as prevent or treat chronic and degenerative illnesses, that would not only benefit individuals, families, but nations and worlds.
