Is bottled alkaline water a better alternative to a water ionizer?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Bob The Ionizer Guy&#039;s Take on Bottled Alkaline Water - BEWARE!\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/CnC11tbTpyI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Before we answer that, let\u2019s first talk about what this product really is. Well, as the name suggests, it\u2019s alkaline water in a plastic bottle. Manufacturers market it as if it\u2019s special. As if it\u2019s as special as water you get from a water ionizer. But while there may be similarities between this product and what you actually get from a water ionizer, the differences between the two are rather huge.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Bottled Alkaline Water Uses Additives\u00a0<\/h2>\n<p>First off, bottled alkaline water contains additives and chemicals. This is the path manufacturers take to raise the pH of the water so that they can say that it\u2019s \u201calkaline.\u201d Some examples of chemicals used in such products are Magnesium Chloride, Calcium Chloride, and Potassium Hydroxide. These are inorganic compounds that can have a negative effect on your body. Potassium Hydroxide, for instance, is used in the skin care industry. It\u2019s highly corrosive and something you don\u2019t want building up in your system over time.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2348\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2348\" style=\"width: 440px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/old.ionizerresearch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/AdobeStock_277091348.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-news-list wp-image-2348\" src=\"http:\/\/old.ionizerresearch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/AdobeStock_277091348-440x250.jpeg\" alt=\"bottled alkaline water\" width=\"440\" height=\"250\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2348\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">What&#8217;s inside will surprise you!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Bottled Alkaline Water Has Zero Antioxidant Value<\/h2>\n<p>Manufacturers use pH buffers in making bottled alkaline water, and most of the time, they contain a positive ORP value. A positive ORP value means a substance is an oxidizing agent. And you wouldn\u2019t want anything oxidizing entering your system. Instead, you would want to eat or drink something that\u2019s rich in antioxidants. And that\u2019s exactly what you get from water filtered through a water ionizer. Water ionizers produce alkaline drinking water that\u2019s all natural and free of chemicals and oxidizing agents.<\/p>\n<h2>Bottled Alkaline Water Costs A Fortune<\/h2>\n<p>There is no question that bottled alkaline water is expensive. It could cost between $2 and $5 per liter! Yes, there are others that cost less, like $1.5 per liter. But how many liters of water are you required to drink each day? The answer is 3 liters for men. That\u2019s equivalent to $4.5 per day, which would cost you $1642.5 per year.<\/p>\n<p>And that\u2019s just for one member of the family! You\u2019ll be able to save more by having a water ionizer installed at home. And not only that, because with a bottled water ionizer, you\u2019re actually spending money on something that\u2019s gradually destroying your health, and that doesn&#8217;t\u2019 make any sense at all.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2149\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2149\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"\/financing\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2149 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/old.ionizerresearch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/ionizer-research-Water-Ionizer-Financing-Program-v2-a1.jpg\" alt=\"water ionizer\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/old.ionizerresearch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/ionizer-research-Water-Ionizer-Financing-Program-v2-a1.jpg 600w, https:\/\/old.ionizerresearch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/ionizer-research-Water-Ionizer-Financing-Program-v2-a1-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2149\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Water ionizers are so affordable now!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Bottler Alkaline Water Has A Significant Environmental Impact<\/h2>\n<p>When you\u2019re buying and drinking bottled alkaline water, you\u2019re not only bringing harm to yourself; you\u2019re also bringing harm to other people\u2019s health by contributing to land and water pollution. Even if bottled alkaline water is healthy, it is still bottled water, and we all know how far-reaching the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.onegreenplanet.org\/lifestyle\/the-true-price-of-bottled-water\/\">environmental impact of bottled water<\/a> is.<\/p>\n<h2>A Better Alternative<\/h2>\n<p>At the end of the day, a water ionizer that produces safe and healthy alkaline drinking water for you and your loved ones is the way to go. For one, water ionizers produce water without having to add potentially harmful chemicals to it. You can also be sure that water you\u2019re drinking from a water ionizer has negative ORP readings. Plus, higher quality water ionizers can give you hydrogen water.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1657\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1657\" style=\"width: 440px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ionizerresearch.com\/buyersguide\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-news-list wp-image-1657\" src=\"https:\/\/ionizerresearch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/water-ionizer-buyers-guide-IR-CTA-440x250.png\" alt=\"Water ionizer buyer's guide\" width=\"440\" height=\"250\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1657\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Free water ionizer buyer&#8217;s guide<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>You\u2019ll also be able to save more in the long run since you won\u2019t have to spend at least $2 per liter on water.
