Alkaline Water

There is growing evidence to suggest that drinking alkaline water induces beneficial effects on the human physiology and processes that mediate healing and repair.

The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14, with 0 being highly acidic and 14 being highly basic. When something is alkaline, it means that it has a pH that is greater than 7 (neutral). Rain water is acidic, Tap water is Neutral, Package Drink Solutions is able to supply a mineral balanced alkaline water with pH range 7.5pH to 10.5pH.

Components of Alkaline Water

  • Potassium

    Potassium is essential for water and electrolyte balance and the normal functioning of cells, including nerves and muscle cells/tissues.

  • Zinc

    The major function of zinc in human metabolism is as a cofactor for numerous enzymes. Zinc is required for the functioning of the immune system and in the structure and function of the skin.

  • Sodium

    Sodium is responsible for regulating body water content and electrolyte balance. Sodium is also required for the absorption of certain nutrients and water from the gut.

  • Calcium

    The body needs adequate dietary calcium to develop and maintain healthy bones and teeth along with playing a vital role in many systems.

  • Magnesium

    Magnesium is an essential mineral present in all human tissues, especially in bone. It is also needed for muscle and nerve function.

  • Manganese

    Manganese is required for bone formation and for energy metabolism. It is also a constituent of an antioxidant enzyme, which helps to prevent free radical-mediated damage to cells.

Alkaline Water in Sports

Drinking alkaline water has been found to improve body rehydration following physical exercise. A clinical study assessed hydration/rehydration bio-markers in human participants, post-physical exercise, following the consumption of high-pH alkaline water and standard purified water. Consumption of high alkaline water was found to significantly reduce and restore high blood viscosity (a hydration/rehydration bio-marker) by 87.50% when compared to standard purified water.

The Health Damages Caused by Drinking Other Alkaline Water Systems

We do not use electrolysis or ionisation in our water, a common technique used to obtain alkaline water/solutions. Water electrolysis (or ionisation) produces unstable alkaline water that causes harmful impacts on the body. Research reports indicate that water electrolysis can cause necrosis and fibrosis of the cardiac muscles. By adding sodium chloride salts to catalyse water electrolysis, electrolysed water contains sodium hypochlorite and hypochlorous acid (HOCL) which both are linked to serious adverse body reactions. For instance, sodium hypochlorite is linked to skin irritations, membrane irritation and acute toxicity.

Recognising the importance of a mineral rich, stable, alkaline water, Package Drink Solutions (PDS) uses a unique technology, the Natralysis Process™, to manipulate the number of minerals and electrolytes that play a key role in the body and in the healing/repair process to create our alkaline water.

The Natralysis Process™ mimics the natural process whereby water picks up trace minerals, which create a stable, alkaline water. These essential minerals are more readily absorbed into the body than mineral compounds used for buffering ionised water.
