In the book “Mineral water is the best medicine”, expert Koichiro Fujita believes that based on the water quality of mineral water, generally speaking, within the limit index, the beneficial elements contained in it are not substantial for occasional drinkers. Physiological or pharmacological effects. However, if it is consumed for a long time, it does have obvious nutritional and health care effects on the human body. So if you want to take advantage of the health benefits of mineral water, you should insist on drinking it for a long time.
For the mineral water that is drunk every day, British drinking water expert Professor Michael Ro believes that in addition to preventing pollution, two standards must be met: one, it must be natural; two, it must be weakly alkaline (above PH 7.0). The low-sodium mineral water has a pH value of 7.0-7.8, which is naturally weakly alkaline. It is a typical natural weakly alkaline mineral water. It is a low-sodium mineral water that can be drunk every day.
The reason for emphasizing that it must be natural is that any artificially manufactured and produced water is an alternative that is not easy to “get along” with the human body and other biological cells. The emphasis on weak alkaline is because human blood is weakly alkaline, and it will gradually become acidified with the deterioration of health and aging (the pH of blood in infants and healthy periods is 7.45-7.35, and it drops to about 7.0 in old age and critical illness. ), while the artificially produced water (such as purified water, mineral water, distilled water, etc.) is mostly acidic (pH value is mostly between 5.6-6.5), long-term drinking will cause the weak alkaline of the blood to decrease. And the daily intake of chicken, duck, fish and other acidic foods can also acidify the body’s blood. Therefore, in the medical field, there is a saying that “blood acidification is the source of all diseases”. This is why the World Health Organization has determined the pH standard of healthy drinking water to be 7.0-8.0.
