If your health drinks of choice are those colorful vitamin waters and sport drinks, you will want to read this and pass it on, especially to anyone concerned about more alkaline foods in their diet. Look at the ingredients in most of those sports drinks and vitamin waters, and you cannot help but see they are far from being healthy drinks.

Next time you are searching for health drinks or alkaline foods, here are a few things to pass up:

* Phosphoric Acid is just what it says it is – acid. This is a definition of phosphoric acid: “A clear colorless liquid used in fertilizers, detergents, pharmaceuticals and food flavoring, irritating to the skin and eyes and moderately toxic if ingested.” When well balanced diet is supposed to be 80% alkaline foods and only 20% acid foods for proper pH balance, this really puts your body upside down.

* High Fructose Corn Syrup is only empty calories that promote weight gain and abnormal blood sugar levels, which may develop into diabetes. Excess sugars have no place in health drinks, and processed sugar is not present in any alkaline foods.

* Artificial Flavors are another problem ingredient. When artificial flavorings are in health drinks, they resemble soft drinks, candy and sugary juices. These artificial substances create a very acidic pH balance and create the need for more alkaline foods in order to neutralize the acid from artificial toxins.

* Artificial Sweeteners are just not needed in health drinks today. Because of the toxic nature of artificial sweeteners, scientists express concerns about their damaging effects on the human body. Many consumers now believe that artificial sweeteners may play a role in disorders of the brain, such as Alzheimer’s.

* Isolated Vitamins – When vitamins are isolated and produced in a lab, then added to so called health drinks, the nutrients break down before the body can absorb them. The human body needs vitamins and minerals from whole foods, not from so called health drinks that are really bottled, heated, highly processed waters with colorful dyes, and artificially created, synthetic vitamins and minerals.

When looking for quality health drinks, here are a few important things to ask yourself.

* Is it heated in the bottling process? If so then any enzymes have been destroyed, thus making it more difficult for the body to absorb and put the nutrients to work.

* Does it offer chlorophyll from plants to allow the cells more efficient oxygen absorption?

* Does it offer natural antioxidants that eliminate free radicals? Natural antioxidants are essential for anti-aging.

* Is it made with real whole food ingredients like fruits and herbs or other nutrient rich alkaline foods?

Now, discover unique health drinks that are not advertised with flashy TV ads or filled with colorful dyes: This is what you will discover in these truly healthy drinks:

* In powder form, not liquefied and bottled

* Produced at temperatures low enough to maintain enzyme integrity

* Contain live enzymes from whole alkaline foods and chlorophyll from plants

* Complex whole food complex structures and living enzymes are fully intact

* Contain natural antioxidants that inhibit free radicals, which cause aging

Do your health drinks do that? Not if you bought them at a supermarket or a convenience store.
