How bio-identical hormones and alkaline water impact:
– Flu shots – so many strains of flu, shots may not be as effective. Take D3 everyday, take Vit. C everyday, drink the Alkaline water, eat more greens. Remember, disease is acidic and health if alkaline and you may not get the flu.
– Alzheimers – The alkaline water is a smaller molecule and therefore gets into your brain cells. Children who crawled a lot may have activated both sides of their brain better than most. All bio-identical hormones will help all of your body, especially your muscles i.e. heart (most important muscle and runs your blood and circulation to YOUR BRAIN). The hormone Pregnenolone for your memory and to help you sleep better @ night
– E-coli from lettuce – There was a scare not to eat lettuce that was not handled properly. E-coli is most prevalent in urinary tract infections because it is in your intestines. 2.5 Alkaline water will kill E-coli and MRSA that is in hospitals.
– Wrinkles – The alkaline water treats wrinkles from the inside….put the 5.% alkaline water on the outside.
