Alkaline Antioxidant Water and Various Adult Diseases (Cont'd) |
Heart Disease, Atherosclerosis and High Blood Pressure |
Your blood is your body’s transport system. It carries both nutrients and oxygen
to the tissues of the body. It also carries waste products away from the tissues
and helps maintain body temperature. To do these things, your blood must circulate continuously. Your heart is the center of the circulation and it pumps over 5 quarts of blood every minute. Acidification of the body starts in the blood. The blood performs a balancing act in order to maintain the blood pH within the safe range of 7.3 to 7.45. The blood has a buffer pool of sodium bicarbonate made to neutralize strong acid compounds coming out of the cells as waste products of metabolism. When this buffer level is too low, acidosis is developed. Acidosis and High Blood Pressure Dr. Kancho Kuninaka, one of the pioneers of the alkaline antioxidant water treatment in Japan, states that virtually without exception, the patients with high blood pressure have an acidosis condition. He has many successful clinical cases where the acid free high pH alkaline antioxidant water lowered blood pressure. |
There are several plausible explanations for this phenomenon. Since the higher pH
blood contains excess oxygen, the heart doesn’t have to work as hard. Another
factor may be that the viscosity of the higher pH blood is low so that the heart
does not need to pump as hard. A further reason may be that the calcium ions
in alkaline antioxidant water may be dissolving plaque and cholesterol build-up
in the artery walls, thus opening up the passage. If you take several deep breaths right before the blood pressure measurement, you can get a lower reading. You have temporarily elevated the pH of the blood by breathing out more CO and by breathing in more O . If you can lower your blood pressure by using this trick, your high blood pressure is caused by the first two reasons in the above paragraph and you should be able to lower your blood pressure within a few months of drinking the alkaline antioxidant water. Alkaline Antioxidant Water Therapies However, if your blood pressure is always high, chances are that your arteries are getting narrow (arteriosclerosis) and it will take a longer time, possibly a year or more, for that blood pressure to come down by means of alkaline antioxidant water. It takes time to dissolve plaque and cholesterol build-up, but eventually it will work. This slow process has no side effects. It lowers the blood pressure by eliminating the very causes of the high blood pressure. |
