A-san works Monday, Wednesday, and Friday,
B-san works Tuesday and Thursday, it seems...
A-san, who is there on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, likes alkaline ionized water and is happy about it.

Yesterday (Friday), she brought a pot for carrying alkaline ionized water (laugh). It's a bit small, but maybe it's just right?
I'll bring it on Monday to give to her.


I talked to her on Thursday,
but it seems she doesn’t drink much water...
The conversation started with, "I often need the toilet because I drink a lot of water."
Then, she said, "I don’t drink much water, you know."
Wondering whether she should drink more water.

She drinks a lot of coffee and tea, but her husband says, "That’s not water! That's coffee!" (laugh)

No, no, it’s not like you’re chewing on the beans (laugh),
I told her that it definitely counts as a liquid.


It is said that humans intake about 5 liters of water a day,
but this does not mean drinking 5 liters of water.
It includes:
Water contained in food and beverages,
Water produced inside the body (about 300 cc, it seems).
All of this adds up to about 5 liters.

I told her that it’s okay to drink when you want to.
When you are short of water, you get thirsty,
which means your body needs water, so you shouldn't hold back then...
While writing this, I suddenly remembered
that during heatstroke, the body may not recognize it needs water.

Even though you need water, you might not feel like drinking...

And because you don't drink, you don't sweat.
Without sweating, your body temperature rises,
leading to collapse from dehydration and overheating...


So, it might be dangerous to not drink at all just because you're not thirsty.
Being aware of your living environment,
you need to be careful about hydrating.
I drink about 2 to 3 liters of alkaline ionized water directly every day.
I would like to drink more, but my water bottle only holds 1 liter.

I'm currently looking for a small, well-insulated water bottle that can hold 2 liters

●Attraction of Reduced Water

When used in cooking, it is said to mellow and improve the taste of ingredients. In particular, it is sometimes appreciated for improving the taste of tea and coffee.

１．Improvement of rice quality
When rice is polished with alkaline ionized water, the water helps to effectively remove impurities from the surface of the rice and also helps the rice grains to absorb the water more thoroughly. This is said to result in fluffier cooked rice and improved taste and texture.

２．Soups and stews
アルカリイオン水を使うと、食材からの旨味が引き出されやすくなり、スープや煮物の味がまろやかになると言われています。

３．Boiled vegetables
Using alkaline ionized water when boiling vegetables is believed to improve the overall taste by keeping colors bright and increasing natural sweetness.

４．Boiling noodles
Boiling noodles such as pasta and udon in alkaline ionized water is appreciated as it makes the noodles chunky and tastes better.

５．Fermented food production
Using alkaline ionized water when making fermented foods such as bread or pizza dough may improve the final flavor of the dough by making it fluffy and accelerating fermentation.

６．Marinated meats
Marinating meat in alkaline ionized water may soften the meat protein, making it more succulent and flavorful.

If you are confident in your culinary skills, give it a try!

I talk to the lady in the cafeteria a lot.
She is about 10 years older than I am at 60, but he is extremely energetic (laughs).

When I go to the restroom at work, I walk through the cafeteria.
When I see your face, I talk to you, lol.

There is a water server in the cafeteria.
We were just about to run out and she was going to replace the bottle.
It looks heavy, so shall I do it for you? She said, "It's okay."


From there, we started talking about water.
The water from that water server is called deep seawater.
And they say it's a little sweet.

(But I didn't think it tasted that great when I drank it)

She went on to tell me that I could have some of that water.
But I brew tea or coffee or something with alkaline ionized water from home and bring it in a water bottle ...

We started talking about alkaline ionized water and other topics.

The lady says, 'That's the one that can make alkaline or acidic water, right?' She said, "That's the one that can make alkaline or acidic water, right?
Heeeee...you know so much! I replied, "You know so much!"
You have installed a good machine.　Wasn't that very overpriced?' She said.

You, Auntie...you know your age well indeed (I didn't say that (laugh)).
Inwardly, I wondered how she knew so much. I was impressed that you are a woman!


Yes, I put in a continuous electrolyzed water generator two years ago and have been drinking alkaline ionized water ever since!
Just one tea bag of tea in a 1 liter water bottle is enough to get me out!
Normally, it would be one tea bag per 200mL or so (^_-)-☆ Value for money, right?

The machine itself is expensive, but it makes less tea or coffee, and what's more
Because if you grind rice with alkaline ionized water and cook the rice, it will be fluffy and glutinous.
When I told her that I couldn't accumulate this, she was so sympathetic!

The auntie says, "The most important thing about rice is the water when you sharpen it!"
Yes, yes, that's right!

Rice is dry, so it absorbs water when you first sharpen it!
You can't just sharpen rice with tap water and cook it with alkaline ionized water because it's too good to waste.
You're not getting 100% of the benefits of alkaline ionized water - right?


We hit it off already and I told her I would bring her some reduced water this coming Monday .
I have a 10L bag, so I said I'll go put it in that...
I don't need 10L!　I'll take a 2L plastic bottle!

Why ？？？？ Because making alkaline ionized water at my house costs about 2 yen per liter.
You didn't have to be so reserved! I said.

Auntie says... she can't bring home a 10L bag because she's here on her bike (laughs).
So, we decided to present them in 2L plastic bottles (^_-)-☆.

I hope she likes it.

It's a bit of an old story, though (laughs)

Well done!

For those whose kidney function has declined for any reason,
please do not drink alkaline ionized water.
However, the symptoms of kidney function decline can vary among individuals.
Swelling or edema: The kidneys can no longer expel excess fluid and salt, which can cause swelling in the feet, hands, face, etc.

Regarding what symptoms may appear,
Fatigue: A decline in kidney function can lead to anemia, which in turn can cause fatigue and weakness.
Changes in Urine: Foamy urine, blood in urine, or a significant increase or decrease in urine volume are changes that may be observed.
Skin Itching or Dryness: Inability of the kidneys to properly process waste can affect the skin, causing itching and dryness.
Lack of Appetite, Nausea, Vomiting: Accumulation of toxins in the body can cause gastrointestinal issues such as lack of appetite, nausea, and vomiting.
Decreased Concentration or Forgetfulness: Effects on the brain can lead to decreased concentration and memory.
High Blood Pressure: The kidneys also help regulate blood pressure, so their decline can lead to high blood pressure.

There might be suspicion of kidney function decline,
but since individual variation is significant, if you suspect anything,
please consult a medical institution.

Maintaining the body's acid-base balance is one of the kidneys' main functions.
A decline in kidney function impairs this balance, making it difficult to properly process acidic or alkaline substances.

Intake of alkaline ionized water can further affect this balance,
potentially leading to metabolic alkalosis.

Metabolic alkalosis refers to a condition where the body's pH level is higher than normal,
which can lead to uncomfortable symptoms and health problems.

The kidneys also maintain the body's mineral balance.
Alkaline ionized water usually contains minerals.
Therefore, excessive intake of these minerals can further burden the kidneys,
potentially worsening existing health problems.

Doctors and nutrition specialists recommend that individuals with declined kidney function
avoid drinking alkaline ionized water or consult a professional before doing so.

If there is a problem with kidney function, it is crucial to follow the guidance of professionals, especially regarding water and diet.

Alkaline ionized water is touted for its health benefits, including:
- Improvement of gastrointestinal symptoms
- Reduction of excess gastric acid
- Relief of chronic constipation
- Improvement of chronic diarrhea
These benefits have been recognized by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare.

However, this does not mean it should be consumed without consideration. If you have declined kidney function, you must follow your doctor's advice.

If your kidney function is normal, you may drink alkaline ionized water and benefit from its effects. Moreover, choosing an alkaline ionized water machine equipped with a purifying function can help remove a certain degree of chemicals, bacteria, minerals, and other substances found in tap water.
This, in turn, is thought to reduce the potential burden on the kidneys by not impairing the kidney's ability to maintain mineral balance.

Therefore, when considering the purchase of an alkaline ionized water generator or an electrolyzed water generator, it is essential to check the specifications, such as the mineral content after purification.

After all, if you're going to make a purchase, it's best to choose something beneficial for your health, isn't it?

At my current workplace, which I joined last September after changing jobs,
they pay more attention to health compared to my previous job.
At my previous job, they only made sure we had the legally required health checks.
But here, I've been able to have a comprehensive medical exam,
and both a public health nurse and an occupational physician are properly managing our health.

That's why a consultation with the public health nurse was scheduled for the beginning of January.
My consultation was on January 31st, from 1 PM for 30 minutes.

As I nervously entered the meeting room, a female public health nurse was waiting,
and her gentle demeanor made me feel at ease, creating a friendly atmosphere.


Since it was my first consultation since changing jobs,
we started with a simple greeting.
Then we confirmed my medical history.
I have various conditions, but the ongoing one is high blood pressure.

I was diagnosed with high blood pressure in 2011 and had been taking medication until June 2022,
when I stopped and have continued without it until now.

The public health nurse asked why I had stopped,
and I honestly replied that after starting to drink alkaline ionized water,
my blood pressure didn't rise much.
Of course, I bought a blood pressure monitor and measure it daily.

The nurse seemed surprised and asked how much of the ionized water I drink a day.

I said about 2 liters a day.
She seemed satisfied with that and also asked, "What about at work?"
I bring it in a water bottle, I said with a smile.


Additionally, the nurse mentioned that eating apples, which are high in potassium, every morning can also lower blood pressure.
Indeed, she told me that in Nagano, known for its apple orchards,
it would be good to eat apples every morning since they are readily available.
Research shows that the potassium in apples can help the kidneys expel sodium, lowering blood pressure.

Nuts also contain a lot of potassium, offering the same effect.
I love almonds, so I thought to myself with a smile, "That's great!"


And, moderate exercise also has the effect of lowering blood pressure.
Indeed, moderate exercise and a balanced diet seem to be good for health,
something I've been vaguely aware of but was confirmed by the public health nurse.
I'm so glad! (^▽^)
And I felt that drinking 2 liters of alkaline ionized water (i.e., reduced water) a day is also a good thing.

It seems that umeboshi (pickled plums) are not an acidic food, despite their sourness. They are so sour that they could make your face look like a pickled plum . The source of this sourness is citric acid. Interestingly, citric acid is also a major component of lemons, which are synonymous with sourness. Does this mean that lemons are not acidic foods either?

The distinction between acidic and alkaline foods is not based on their state before being eaten, but rather on their effect after being consumed. If a food becomes acidic in the body after digestion and absorption, it's classified as an acidic food. If it becomes alkaline, then it's considered an alkaline food.
This is quite a curious phenomenon, isn't it?


Of course! When citric acid is dissolved in water and its pH is measured, depending on the concentration, it can range from about 1 to 3, which is quite strongly acidic . However, when it enters the body, it becomes alkaline.
No, it's not that citric acid itself turns alkaline, but through a biochemical reaction known as the citric acid cycle, bicarbonate ions are produced, and these are alkaline.

Therefore, it's important not just to avoid foods because they are sour, but to consider how they will affect your body after consumption.


Of course, alkaline ionized water is alkaline. You don't even have to think about it (laugh).


In our house, we have a continuous ionized water generator, so we can drink as much alkaline ionized water as we want, anytime. It's also great for cooking, perfect for coffee, and even makes rice taste better (laugh).

In any case, it's important to keep your body alkaline. A pH of 7.4 is said to be optimal for the body, being weakly alkaline.
