I can clearly remember when polycarbonate water bottles were the best bottle to buy. It wasn’t so long ago! And now we are seeing results coming in on the effects. PA in mothers’ urine linked to low birth weights in China It appears that a pregnant woman’s exposure to BPA can increase the risk of delivering […]

Hydration: How much water should you be drinking? Really?
It’s a given that we all should be drinking more water to maintain health, but sometimes we need to question the timing of when we drink water. The most common question we get is whether it’s good to drink water before or during a meal. Or, if you drink water during a meal, does it alter your stomach’s digestive acids, […]
EFSA ignores cocktail effect of multiple pesticide residues in food
European Food Safety Authority: Hmm… seems they haven’t read their own name lately! The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has published a new report: ‘The 2013 European Union report on pesticides in food’. The report, shows the results for almost 81,000 food samples from 27 EU Member States, Iceland and Norway”. Their Press Release of 12th March 2015 reports […]
The hidden carcinogen in Soda
We all know that soda packs lots of addictive sugar. Few of us know that soda has another ingredient that’s worth knowing about. Some caramel-colored sodas could contain a potential carcinogen, suggests a new study from Johns Hopkins University. Caramel color is a dark brown food additive. It helps give drinks such as cola their special hue. The […]
Hand sanitizer and asking for a receipt has WHAT relationship?
A new study shows that using hand sanitizer (and other skin products) before handling receipts increases BPA absorption by as much as 185 times and leads to BPA levels associated with obesity, diabetes, CVD, infertility, and cancer. Imagine the following scenarios: You go to the gas station and fill up your tank. You use the […]
Good fats SHOULD be in the Alkaline Diet
Yes, yes, we’re an alkaline diet and water website but we are a lot more than that. We are the originators of the New Alkaline Diet, and that diet includes fats – whether they are acids or not. And our equal fave (the other one is coco oil) is avocado. Avocados are very high in fat, […]
UltraStream water and Stomach Acid
Had a good Q from Peter today… “Hi Ian, I have been asked a question by an elderly friend whom we organised a UltraStream for! He showed his doctor the brochure…..and the question was asked… The Alkalizing effect on stomach acid levels!” Firstly, Peter, we need to compare alkalinity and pH. alkalinity is a measure […]
A Boy or a Girl? Is the choice this simple?
This scientific study from Japan suggests that if temperatures are warmer, there’s a higher possibility of a baby being female. So.. does that mean that with climate change and global warming we are entering the era of the Goddess? Reading this reading the report I’m reminded of a comment by my old friend and colleague Korean born […]
Microwaves and Water Ionizers. What do they have in common?
I received this from Tyler LeBaron today and it’s really worth a read. It’s aimed at vendors of ionized water. Microwaves Virtually nobody cares how/why they work but we all know they do and we all have one. And so too it is with water ionizers. It doesn’t matter how it works it just does!!!” […]
What has a bee and me have in common?
I just read a quite scary article about the findings of scientists studying bee deaths in the US. At first, research identified one range of pesticides called neonicotinoids as the culprit. So the answer was to remove these pesticides from farms, right? Well, now another group of scientists have come up with a more chilling […]
More contaminants found in Bottled water
Some people are aware that plastic containers leach endocrine-disrupting compounds into food and water. Given that the term “endocrine-disrupting” is thrown around a lot, it’s important you understand what this means. Your endocrine system produces hormones that act as chemical messengers that govern certain processes in the body (such as sexual development in young people). […]
ANOTHER (!) amazing scientific study on Hydrogen water!
This Japanese study is a beauty! It is quite a large one and includes conclusions on the use of hydrogen water (the same as that produced by the UltraStream) for Cognitive decline, Parkinson’s Disease, Atherosclerosis, Metabolic Syndrome, adverse effects of chemotherapy, allegic reactions. Not only that, how’s this for a powerpacked paragraph? “It has been […]
