If you are like most people, you start you day with a cup (or if you’re like me, a pot!) of coffee. If you’ve ever wondered what effect that coffee has on your body, I have great news for you: Coffee is good for your health! About the only downside to coffee is that it has an acidic pH, but alkaline water can fix that.
Better Tasting Coffee with Alkaline Water
Alkaline water takes much of the bitterness out of your morning coffee. Simply make it with level 4 alkaline water and you end up with coffee that tastes better. Reducing the acidity of coffee with alkaline water makes it easier on your stomach too!
Health Benefits of Coffee
Coffee can make you smarter. The caffeine in it that keeps you awake also blocks an inhibitory neurotransmitter called Adenosine. Studies show that by blocking adenosine’s inhibitory effect, caffeine actually increases brain activity! In fact, studies show that this improves your mood as well.
Coffee can also help you lose weight. Caffeine stimulates your metabolism and increases the oxidation of fatty acids. Caffeine has also been found to help stimulate the release of fatty acids from body tissues. Combine coffee with alkaline water’s superior hydration and you get the benefits of both!
Studies have shown repeatedly that coffee significantly reduces your risk of developing type II diabetes. People who have several cups per day have a much lower risk of developing type II diabetes.
Some of the best news about coffee is that it may help you remember to drink it. Coffee has been shown to protect your brain against Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Coffee drinkers have up to a 60% lower risk of developing these two conditions.
Your liver also benefits from coffee. In fact It has been shown to lower your risk of cirrhosis by 80%, and cancer by 40%. The strongest effect was seen in people who drank more than 4 cups per day.
Alkaline Water Coffee as a Nutrient and an Antioxidant
The most amazing fact about coffee is that it contains a massive amount of antioxidants. Coffee has way more antioxidants than fruit or vegetables! Combined with alkaline water, it becomes a more potent antioxidant. Additionally, alkaline water has been shown in studies to enhance the effects of antioxidants that it is taken with.
Coffee supplies vitamins and minerals itself. You get even more minerals when it made with alkaline water. The amount of vitamins and minerals in a cup of coffee is small, but if you drink a few cups it adds up!
Coffee for Health | Moderation is key
Coffee in moderate amounts is good for you but drinking way too much can be harmful. It is best to follow your coffee in the morning with a glass or two of alkaline ionized water. For best results, avoid putting nasty stuff like sugar in your coffee. Drink up, and be sure to stay hydrated with alkaline water.

Level 4 is acidic. Wouldn’t you want to use 9.5 or higher?

Level represents the alkalinity level of already alkaline water, not the pH of the water.

If you’re level 4 is acidic, we recommend you get your machine serviced. Level 4 should be the highest alkaline setting
