Researchers found that drinking orange
juice increased the levels of citrate in the participant’s urine and reduced the
crystallization of uric acid and calcium oxalate – two components that can lead
to the formation of kidney stones. Lemonade and water did not increase citrate
levels.
The most well known scientist and inventor
“Sang Whang” (Alkaline Pioneer) have said that in the pecking order of ion
exchange of the four alkaline minerals in water, potassium is the strongest,
next is sodium, then calcium, and the last is magnesium.
RIO® Antioxidant
Alkaline Water system contains high minerals i.e. Potassium, sodium, calcium &
magnesium.The strongest minerals can replace weaker
minerals, but not the other way around. For example, sulphur in food creates
sulphuric acid. Since sulphuric acid is dangerous to the human body, the body
robs calcium from the skeleton and combines it with the sulphuric acid to form
sulphate, a weaker acid salt that doesn’t dissolve well. Calcium or magnesium
can’t kick out calcium from the sulphate, but potassium or sodium can, thus
releasing calcium back to the skeleton. Sulphuric acid combined with potassium
or sodium is more soluble for the kidneys to process and discharge.
Potassium and sodium are better than
calcium or magnesium in reducing sulphate, urate, prosphate, and other acid
salts. It is nearly insoluble in water, alcohol and other, but soluble in
solutions of alkaline salts. But, potassium will work better than calcium.
Many people reported relief from gout (which is caused by uric acid) after
drinking antioxidant alkaline water.
Since the decline of Bicarbonates in the blood stream is aging process, and
Conversely, the increase of Bicarbonates in the blood stream is reverse
aging-.- Dr. Sang Whang
Benefits of Calcium & Magnesium
The role of calcium in bone health is
indisputable. Bone health is an indisputable as we age. For an acid overloaded
person needs calcium, magnesium, potassium and sodium, for all of these minerals
play an essential part in the maintenance of bone, muscle and cell.
So when aches and pains come, and we find
that calcium or magnesium eases the symptom. We prefer to work on reality rather
than theory, and reality is that it worked.
Healthy bone structures in humans require
both calcium & magnesium. Milk and other dairy products are cited as being high
in calcium, but lacking the magnesium levels required for strong bones. Such a
deficiency would be mitigated by consuming other foods high in magnesium, such
as nuts, seeds, green leafy vegetables, even certain mineral waters high in the
element. In fact if you don’t receive calcium & magnesium in a 2:1 ration, you
won’t absorb it properly anyway.
Calcium is absorbed in small intestines.
There are different types of calcium supplements. Namely calcium citrate,
calcium carbonate, dolomite, bone meal or oyster shell, calcium gluconate or
calcium lactate. The best way to obtain calcium and fight free radicals is by
drinking RIO® Antioxidant Alkaline water.
The Role of Magnesium
Magnesium is the fourth most abundant
mineral in the body and it’s essential to good health. Most people think their
bones are made up of calcium only but approximately 50% of total body magnesium
is found in bone. The other half is found inside cells of body tissues and
organs. Only 1% of magnesium is found in blood, but the body works very hard to
keep blood levels of magnesium constant. Why? Because magnesium is alkaline,
and make up a part of the alkaline buffer!
Magnesium has an essential role in more
than 300 biochemical reactions in the body. Magnesium helps maintain normal
muscle and nerve function, keeps heart rhythm steady, supports a healthy immune
system, and keeps bones strong. Magnesium also helps regulate blood sugar
levels, promotes normal blood pressure, and is involved in energy metabolism and
protein synthesis. There is an increase interest in the role of magnesium in
preventing and managing disorders such as hypertension, cardiovascular disease
and diabetes.
Green vegetables such as spinach are good
sources of magnesium because the centre of the chlorophyll molecule (which gives
green vegetables their colour) contains magnesium.
Some legumes (beans & peas), nuts and
seeds, and whole, unrefined grains are also good sources of magnesium. Refined
grains are generally low in magnesium. When white flour is refined and
processed, the magnesium-rich germ and bran are removed. Bread made from whole
grain wheat flour provides more magnesium than bread made from white refined
flour. Water that naturally contains more minerals is described as “hard”.
“Hard” water contains more magnesium than “soft” water.
The
water from the RIO® Spring Antioxidant Alkaline Water System has
been proven similar to Spring water of world renowned health giving springs
(i.e. Hunza Valley) through generations to:
·Increases stable oxygen in our body & immune system.
·
Contains alkaline-rich minerals including calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium
& etc.
·
Smaller water clusters hydrate and detoxification the body by flushing toxins
and acid waste more efficiently.
·
Restore proper alkaline pH in our body and
the
Oxidation Reduction Potential (ORP) up to -250mV & pH 8.2
·Cooking with Alkaline Antioxidant water improves the
nutritional value and the taste of food and drinks such as, tea and coffee. It
also has a lower boiling point
Examples of world renowned health giving springs:
·
Shimanto Health Springs, Japan
·
Lourdes, France Health Springs
·
Hunza Mountain Springs, Northern Pakistan
·
Mountain Springs, Southern Russia.

Filter 1 – Ceramic Filter (12 months)
Provide effective treatment to reduce harmful bacteria such as typhoid,
bilharzias & amoebas and chemical contaminates, remove rust, sediment and
suspended solids, chlorine taste, unpleasant odor. 0.3 micron filtration
absolute and is washable. Recommend replacement within 1 year or 10,000 litres
whichever come first.
Filter 2-Activated Carbon Block + GAC (12 months)
Efficient in removing pollutants such as residual chlorine, unpleasant odor,
organic compounds, colours, heavy metals (e.g. copper, lead, mercury & etc),
Trihalomethanes (THMS), methyl tertiary butyl ethers (MTBES) and other chemicals
by absorption. Recommend replacement within 1 year or 10,000 litres whichever
come first.
Filter 3- Activated Carbon Block + Alkaline Minerals (12 months)
Remove heavy metals, harmful chemicals and organic materials. It made with
superior materials to ensure that water is filtered pure & cleaner. Recommend
replacement within 1 year or 10,000 litres whichever come first.
Filter 4- Alkaline Minerals (24 months)
Contains alkaline rich-mineral which are beneficial to our health such as Ca2+,
magnesium, potassium and sodium. Alkaline minerals
improve the pH value of up to 8.2 of water to medium alkaline level and also
correct blood and body acidity.
For instance, Ca2+ is the most important (and specific) element of bone and
calcified cartilage. In humans, the total body content of calcium is mostly
present in the form of bone mineral. Recommend replacement within 2 year or
20,000 litres whichever come first.

At the same time increasing dissolved oxygen content in the water for our body
need. Finally
KDF 55 was designed specifically for removing or reducing chlorine and
water-soluble heavy metals.
Recommend replacement within 2 1/2 year or 20,000 litres whichever come first.
