Turmeric.. or Hydrogen?
Ian: I don’t know about you but here at AlkaWay I get a LOT of health related emails. Some I look at, some I don’t, usually depending on how ‘salesey’ they are. Today I received one that I’m going to copy some parts from. Here goes: _______________________________________________________________ “It’s no exaggeration to state that diabetes is […]
K2, K2, K2. Why didn’t I know about it earlier?
My regular readers would know my story. 14 years a vegetarian, 12 years alkaline and a broken leg from a light fall from a skateboard breaks my leg, and alerts me to the fact that I have severe osteoporosis.

The Placebo Effect
Our friend and lover of H2, Biochemist Tyler LeBaron recently posted this quite excellent summation of the placebo effect. What is the PLACEBO effect? Many skeptics have claimed that the purported benefits of ionized alkaline water are simply attributed to the placebo effect. In stark contrast many who realize that the benefits of the water […]
Bone Broth. The Alkaline Paleo Superfood.
It’s not a lot of fun making it. The smell can be a bit much, but a generous addition of herbs will help. I’m talking bone broth, and I’m advising you to get in quick because while you can get big bones from the butcher cheaply today, the butchers are catching on to our demand […]
