"The Bawell Platinum water ionizer is deeply discounted for this year's Black Friday sales event. The machine hooks up to the kitchen faucet to provide ionized drinking water with a pH range of 3 to 11. This feature along with other features such as a detailed LCD display, 35 settings for different types of water, and countertop or under sink installation make it one of our most successful and popular items," said a Bawell representative. "Not only does it provide alkaline ionized drinking water at a variety of pH ranges, but it also comes with a Forever Lifetime Warranty to give its owner peace of mind."

"Equipped with one of these water ionizers, anyone will be ready to fully benefit from everything alkaline water has to offer." According to this representative, alkaline water benefits drinkers in many ways. He referenced one PubMed medical study, explaining that the scientific study titled "Potential benefits of pH 8.8 alkaline drinking water as an adjunct in the treatment of reflux disease" (PMID: 22844861) indicated the possibility that by drinking alkaline ionized water one might be able to relieve acid reflux, by neutralizing pepsin in the stomach.

"Imagine not suffering from the burning and discomfort of acid reflux," he said. "Imagine experiencing less damage from the acid. According to the study alkaline ionized water may be able to do that." The representative also cited two studies which indicated the water may have the ability to fight or help to control diabetes in those who drink it.

According to the representative PubMed #15617863 medical study shows that alkaline ionized water is also capable of revolutionizing the drinker's health by encouraging the growth of good bacteria which live inside the human intestinal tract. He also cited this PubMed scientific study #17159237 which shows that drinking alkaline ionized water provides powerful antioxidants which neutralize free radicals inside the body's cells.  "Free radical damage caused to cellular DNA by Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS molecules) is theorized to be one of the many catalyst of the aging process. Scientist call this the "Free Radical Theory of Aging" and since Reactive Oxygen Species are a natural byproduct of cell metabolism there is no way to avoid them completely. Diets high in antioxidants obtained from green leafy vegetables, fruits, and raw uncooked fish contain an abundance of antioxidant molecules which have a strong Oxidation Reduction Potential, -ORP value, which works by donating a free electron to positively charged ROS molecules.  This study shows that supplying the body with ample amounts of antioxidants in the form of –ORP values improves the body's ability to neutralize the harmful effects of oxidative damage," says the Bawell representative.

"These scientific studies show that alkaline water benefits the body and has the ability to transform your health in a variety of ways. Water is one of the most important nutrients within the body and the body is in fact about 70% water by weight. It is a sad fact that so many people overlook this vital nutrient every day. Taking into consideration the data from these medical studies, drinking this type of water instead of regular tap water or bottled water is the more healthy choice advocated by Bawell. This company remains committed to helping every consumer obtain a water ionizer that will provide them with a steady and reliable source of purified, healthy water," the water expert explained. "We hope that by offering the Platinum model at deep discount on Black Friday, we can encourage more people to benefit from the powerful effects of alkaline ionized water."
