Health Tips: Tea, “hangover” Sad Renal Juice Soda Water Should Sober

Article by hi joiney

Do not let guests drink “high” is the master of dereliction of duty, not to drink their own “high” is a master of Xing sweep, this advise Wine Add Pinjiu culture in China is regarded as “the only way exchanges between men” and “show their heart channel” and “War of the magic weapon to win shopping malls.” So there will be a variety of table wine hangover method, but you know these so-called hangover brilliant idea useful it? Are there any drawbacks? Tea kidney sad hangover “Deep feelings, a bored, emotionally shallow, lick,” after the wine had gone round three, there is always someone to drink “on top.” In such situations, some “wine ‘by the’ test of” who would urge the waiter on a pot of strong tea to sober up quickly. “In fact, this approach is very appropriate.” Freshman Zheng Lian-Feng Zhang, Professor of Gastroenterology, Affiliated Hospital noted that, while a cup of tea, the head seems not so up, but the heart and kidney was “very hurt.” He explained that originally, the vast majority of alcohol should be in the liver after conversion to acetaldehyde into acetic acid, acetic acid and then broken down into carbon dioxide and water excreted by the kidneys. But the drink-drink tea, strong tea of theophylline can quickly play a diuretic effect on the kidneys, promote decomposition of acetaldehyde too early too late to enter the kidney. Acetaldehyde greater irritant to the kidneys, can damage kidney function, severe cases life threatening. In addition, the alcohol in wine are very harsh on the cardiovascular, but tea also has excited the heart function. Both increase with more stimulation of the heart, especially for people with poor heart function even more dreadful consequences. Hangover drink Juice And natural Sparkling waterIf you have drunk, you can drink orange, pear, apple, watermelon and other fresh fruit juice or a cup of lemon tea. Such fresh fruit juice will help to quickly excreted from the body of alcohol, and if possible to drink several. Lian-Feng Zhang said. If there is no honey water or freshly squeezed fruit juice, a lot of smart “drinking buddy” will point hangover soda bottle, or bring their own bottle as a “secret weapon.” Soda water is alkaline, the liver breaks down alcohol into acetic acid through. People who drink soda drink after the decomposition of acetic acid and alcohol and in each other, so that it can make people feel comfortable. But the world rarely natural soda spring, general manager of Li Xian Henan Red reminded soda sold in the market after most of the purified Drinking water The pressure into carbon dioxide, and add Sweeteners And Perfume Synthetic Carbonated beverages. Experienced consumers generally choose natural soda, because soda has a natural advantage of small molecules, extraordinary penetration, metabolism, strength, solubility, can rapidly enter the body cells, accelerate the metabolism and circulation, can help the body regulate blood pH and ease symptoms of drunkenness. Related links: Lunch, morning and evening drinking alcohol is better thanDrunk is no quick solution to the so-called hangover medicine is not credible. To avoid drink beverages, it is necessary to moderate mindful of the fact, not a lot of alcohol in a short time. First Affiliated Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic Digestive Disease Center, Professor Wen-Xia Zhao said the Chinese have long recognized the advantages and disadvantages of alcohol on the human body, and the drinking capacity and physical and should not be consumption of a variety, and more drinking. Ming Li Shi Zhen in the “Compendium of Materia Medica” make wine “to drink less the blood flow of qi, strong spirit warm. Swig while distracting consumption of blood, dead sperm damage the stomach, the Health and disease flare up.” Second, to drinking time. “The best is to choose the day drinking, such as lunch time drink, harmless.” She said, taboo early evening drink and drink, that is fasting and drinking alcohol before going to sleep at night, especially the latter, because the night is convergence to send the wine, disorder of its clear, spleen involvement, easily producing phlegm, hot work to help wishes, more pathogenic. Chinese medicine, many foods have “hangover” in effect, such as radish, banana, pear, grapefruit, tomato, peach, loquat, mulberry, Gehua, chrysanthemum, lentils, Gehua hangover soup is hangover name side. However, the therapy of “hangover” mainly refers to the varying degrees of ease dizziness, vomiting, nausea and other discomfort after drinking to ease the effects are due to physical differ. She stressed that “hangover party” and not eradicate the damage of alcohol on the body, so there should not conclude that the their “body armor protection”, you can drink without restraint.

How to Use a Soda Ash Feeder for Treating Residential Acidic Well Water

Corrosive well water not only ruins copper pipe, plumbing and fixtures, it can also cause heavy metals such as lead, cadmium and copper to contaminate drinking water as the household pipes corrode.

Well water chemistry varies widely between wells and if corrosion is suspected, a simple water test can pinpoint what is making the water corrosive. Acidity in water is expressed by the pH scale, which ranges from 1 to 14. A pH of 7 is considered neutral, with less than 7.0 being acidic and greater than 7.0 being alkaline. In addition to pH, alkalinity, calcium carbonate, total dissolved solids and temperature are measured and can quickly show if acidity is the main cause of the corrosion.

Acidic water is usually caused by dissolved carbon dioxide in rain water, which allows carbonic acid to form. As the rainwater soaks into the ground it ends up as the source for the acidic well water for homeowners. In some cases, mineral acids from mining or naturally occurring mineral acids cause the water to be acidic.

If the water is acidic, or in the range of 4 to 6.8, the water can benefit by having the pH neutralized to a pH of between 7.0 and 7.5. Frequently water that is corrosive is also low in calcium hardness and dissolved solids. This type of water can be made non-corrosive by the simple addition of soda ash. Soda ash, or sodium carbonate, is a non-toxic product that when added to water in the correct dose can raise the pH to 7.0 to 7.5 without making the water harder or affecting the taste or color of the water.

In some cases if there is dissolved iron or manganese in the water, after the pH is raised, the iron and manganese will oxidize and be visible in the water. If the iron is greater than 0.3 ppm and the manganese is greater than 0.05 ppm, a backwashing iron filter should be used after the soda ash is injected.

Soda ash pump systems automatically inject the soda ash solution into the water when the well pump runs. A small pump called a metering pump is used to inject a small amount of soda ash (sodium carbonate) into the water automatically. For home wells the metering pumps are usually wired to turn on and start pumping soda ash solution when the well pump is energized or running.

For best results, allow a few minutes of contact with the water for pH adjustment to occur and the soda ash solution to thoroughly mix in the water by using a contact tank. However, for many residential applications, the existing pressure tank and piping system is enough to provide some mixing, since the pH is neutralized almost instantly.

Soda ash is bought dry, usually in 25 or 50 lb bags and mixed with soft or pure water in the solution tank. When a saturated solution is achieved (approximately 3 pounds per 5 gallons of water, which creates a 10% solution), a solution of between 50 and 500 ppm are injected, depending on the pH, alkalinity and flow rate of the water.

In some cases, instead of dissolved carbon dioxide causing the low pH or acidity, the acidity is caused by mineral acids, either natural or from mining or other industrial wastes. In this type of water, the pH is less than 4.0 then sodium hydroxide (lye) may need to be used with the same type of pump that is used for soda ash. Soda ash works best to neutralize the pH when the pH is between 4 and 6.8.

Another approach to neutralizing acidic water is by the use of a calcite neutralizer filter. These filters will typically raise the pH of the water to 7.0 to 8.0 and add 30 to 100 ppm of hardness depending on the alkalinity and water hardness. Unlike soda ash feeders, these units do raise the hardness of water. They can have certain advantages over soda ash feeders, if there is sediment in the water, or small amounts of iron, in that they also double as self-cleaning filters.

In neutralizer filters, acidic waters slowly dissolve the calcium and magnesium media on contact as the water flows through the filter, raising the pH of the water and increasing the alkalinity. This eliminates the effects of corrosive water chemistries and can help to prevent corrosion of piping and fixtures.

Neutralizer filter tanks are filled with a blend of calcium and magnesium carbonates made from naturally occurring minerals, which dissolve into the water, making it less corrosive. More mineral can quickly and easily be added to the filter tank, typically once per year for most residential applications. No special tools are required.

Generally soda ash feeders are preferred if the water has a pH of less than 5 or 5.5, whereas calcite neutralizers may work better when the pH is between 5.5 and 6.8.

 8 Ways Soda Fizzles Your Health

We would wager money that many of you are “doing the dew” or “doing what tastes right” this very moment. Before you take another gulp from your soft drink can, here are 8 facts about soda to consider that may drastically affect the quality of your health.

pH of Soda = pH of Vinegar
For one, soda, no matter who makes it, is the most acidic beverage you can buy, with a pH of about 2.5, about the same as vinegar. Why does that matter? Acid oxidizes whatever it comes in contact with. If you put soda or vinegar on metal, it will rust it quickly. Check out this table of acid levels of your favorite sodas.

Drink Soda, Leach Calcium
If you drink soda, which also contains high levels of phosphorous, you will leach calcium from your bones. Dr. Michael Murray from the Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine concluded, “It appears that increased soft drink consumption is a major factor that contributes to osteoporosis.” Furthermore, Dr. Elson Haas, author of The Detox Diet states, “Tooth loss, periodontal disease, and gingivitis can be problems, especially with a high phosphorus intake, particularly from soft drinks.”

Soda Will Dissolve your Tooth Enamel
Weak bones is just the beginning. According to Dr. James Howenstein. author of A Physician’s Guide to Natural Health Products That Work, the high sugar content of soda is awful. He states, “”In an interesting experiment the sugar from one soft drink was able to damage the white blood cells’ ability to ingest and kill bacteria for seven hours.” Dr. Marion Nestle from his book Food Politics states, “Sugar and acid in soft drinks so easily dissolve tooth enamel.”

Each Additional Soda Increases Risk for Obesity by 1.6 times
So now we’ve got weak bones, weakened immune system, and dissolving teeth. What’s next? Weight gain! Dr. Nestle also concluded, “The relationship between soft drink consumption and body weight is so strong that researchers calculate that for each additional soda consumed, the risk of obesity increases 1.6 times.”

Children Who Drink Soda Break Bones More Easily
Our children aren’t safe, either. Dr. Nestle states, “Adolescents who consume soft drinks display a risk of bone fractures three to four-fold higher than those who do not.” Dr. William Duffy from the Naval Research Institute states, “The high sugar hides the acid. Children little realize they are drinking this strange mixture of phosphoric acid, sugar, caffeine, coloring, and flavoring matter.” Greg Critser from his book Fat Land: How Americans Became the Fattest People in the World states: “A joint study by Harvard University and Boston Children’s Hospital researchers in February 2001 concluded that such excess liquid calories inhibited the ability of older children to compensate at mealtime, leading to caloric imbalance and, in time, obesity.”

Diet Soda Isn’t Any Better
For those of you with a diet soda in your hands, the news isn’t any better, in fact it’s worse! Carol Simontacchi from her book The Crazy Makers: How the Food Industry Is Destroying Our Brains and Harming Our Children states, “One liter of an aspartame-sweetened beverage can produce about fifty-six milligrams of methanol. When several of these beverages are consumed in a short period of time (one day, perhaps), as much as two hundred fifty milligrams of methanol are dumped into the bloodstream, or thirty-two times the EPA limit.” So, you’re poisoning your body, too.

And when it comes to saccharin, which is a noncaloric petroleum derivative estimated to be three hundred to five hundred times sweeter than sugar: “More than a dozen animal tests over the last thirty years have demonstrated the carcinogenic effects of saccharin in the bladder and other sites, particularly female reproductive organs, and in some instances at doses as low as the equivalent of one to two bottles of diet pop daily.”

With diet soda, you’ve gone from high calories to poisonous levels of methanal and an increased chance of developing cancer. Not a very good trade.

Could Caffeine Jeopardize the Human Race?
Then there’s the caffeine. Jean Carper from her book Food: Your Miracle Medicine : How Food Can Prevent and Cure over 100 Symptoms and Problems states, “tests at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine by Roland R. Griffiths, MD, show caffeine withdrawal can strike people who drink a single cup of strongly brewed coffee or drink caffeinated soft drinks everyday. Further, Dr. Griffiths discovered that caffeine-withdrawal symptoms include not only headache, but also fatigue, mild depression, muscle pain and stiffness, flu-like feelings, nausea and vomiting. And for women: “Those consuming at least one cup of a caffeine-containing beverage per day, such as coffee, tea or soft drinks, were more prone to PMS. And the more caffeine they consumed, the more severe their PMS symptoms.”

Caffeine causes withdrawal with symptoms mimicking a flu and for women it makes PMS even worse. But could caffeine really jeopardize the future of the human race? Yes! “A study on the relationship between caffeine and fertility found that… just one caffeinated soft drink per day was associated with a reduced monthly chance of conception of 50 percent.”

If All That Wasn’t Enough Watch Out for a Asthma and a Rash
And finally there’s the preservative used in soda. Dr. Marcia Zimmerman, author of The A.D.D. Nutrition Solution : A Drug-Free 30 Day Plan states, “Sodium benzoate Sodium benzoate is used as a preservative (microbial control) in foods, including soft drinks, fruit juices, margarine, confections, pickles, and jams. Sodium preservatives add sodium to the diet and reduce the availability of potassium. Some reported reactions to sodium benzoate include recurring urticaria (rash), asthma, and eczema.”

Still Drinking that Soda…..?
Hard to believe that so much mayhem can come from a little can or bottle, but there is absolutely nothing good or redeemable about soda. The sooner you can remove it from your diet, the better. If the FDA were doing its job, it wouldn’t be allowed on the market. If you care about your health and the quality of your life, put the Mountain Dew down!
