Vibrate and Hydrate

The most important co-factor in exercise, health and even weight loss is proper hydration. It is recommended that you drink 400-600 ml of water 2 hours before exercise and 150-300 ml every 15 to 20 minutes of exercise.

Exercise should be commenced in what is called a 'euhydrated' state. That is, your body is properly hydrated and your plasma electrolyte levels are at a normal level.

The process of pre-hydration should be performed several hours before exercise to enable fluid absorption and allow urine output to return to normal levels. The goal of drinking water during exercise is to prevent excessive water loss or dehydration through the physiological process of sweating.

The issue now becomes what is the best source of water to replace exercise-induced water loss though sweating.

Consider that when exercising you are consuming more oxygen and metabolising energy through muscle work. This process creates free radicals, lactic acid and a mild metabolic acidosis. Is there a water source that addresses these issues whilst optimally rehydrating cells?

YES!

Ionized water is the perfect solution. Ionized water - water that has passed through an electrolysis cell - has many properties including:

• Smaller molecule cluster size (decreasing surface tension and therefore increasing cell permeability)
• Alkaline pH due to the increased presence of alkaline minerals like calcium, magnesium, potassium and sodium.
• High presence of OH- (hydroxyl) ions, making it an antioxidant

So, drinking alkaline, ionised, micro-clustered water may help ameliorate all of the exercise induced physiological by-products.

• Water that has been alkalinised may help neutralise the exercise induced acidosis.
• Water that has been ionised may help act as a free-radical scavenger to address the issue of accelerated oxygen consumption.
• Lastly when water is micro-clustered it may be absorbed at a faster rate. This may help with general rehydration.
