Sometimes there are more H+ ions than OH- ions in water. That kind of water is called acid water. Conversely, the water with more OH- ions than H+ ions is called alkaline water. When their number are equal, the water is called neutral water. A very interesting natural law xists n these number of H+ ions and OH- ions. when the water is neutal and the temperature is normal room temperature, the ratio of H+ ions to the total
Human blood has a pH value ranging from 7.3 to 7.45. The excess OH- ions in the water with a pH value of 7.45 is 2.463×10-7?? (2.818×10-7-0.3548×10-7=2.4632×10-7). The excess OH- ions in the water with a pH value of 7.3 is 1.494×10-7. Blood with a pH value of 7.45 contains 64.9% more excess oxygen than blood with a pH value of 7.3. The pH values of 7.3 and 7.45 seem almost the same, but there is a big difference in the amount of excess oxygen between the two examples of blood. .
Excess oxygen in alkaline water
Ten ounces of water weighs approximately 0.296 kilogram. Since the atomic mass unit of a water molecule is 18 and one atomic mass unit is 1.66 x 10-27kg, one water molecule weighs 29.88×10-27kg. This means that there is approximately 1×1025 number of water molecules in 10 oz water.
Knowing the pH values of different drinks, one can calculate the number of H+ ions and OH- ions in a particular glass of water. The following table compares the pH values and the excess oxygen counts (or oxygen deficiency counts in some cases in different 10 oz drinks.
The effects of drinking different pH liquids for a human body will be discussed later, however, I would like to make one observation from the above. All kinds of soft drinks are very acidic, especially colas. In order to neutralize a glass of cola, it takes about 32 glasses of high pH alkaline water.
A glass of cola ( with a Ph value of 2.5 ) added to 10 gallons of water with a pH value of 74 will lower the pH of 10 gallons of water to 4.6. A human body contains about 10 gallons of slightly alkaline water. Fortunately, drinking a glass of cola does not lower the pH value to 4.6.
Important facts to remember
The important thing to know is that we age because we accumulate acidic waste products. Therefore, if we get rid of these wastes, especially the old ones, we can reverse the aging process. We can even eliminate the symptoms of adult diseases by these processes if no irreversible damage is done already.
The problem is that the aging process is slow and our body adapts to it, so that we do not notice the fact that we are getting old. As time goes by, we may notice the slowing down effects of lack of oxygen, but think that we feel great because there is NO PAIN. And we adjust to the slower life style, perfectly content, until such time when the deficiency of oxygen finally manifests itself into major catastrophic diseases. By the time one feels pain caused by the acid accumulation, the damage is severe. Often it is irreversible. One must start the process of reducing acidic wastes before the pain starts.
