What’s in Your
Beach Bag?
H
ydration is a summer
must! And Essentia
is a fabulous choice.
It was the first
functional bottled
water mass-produced in the
U.S., and now it is the top
selling bottled water brand
in the natural grocers such
as Whole Foods.
Studies have shown that
high-alkaline functional water
like Essentia helps re-hydrate
the body ideally, which is a
great way to stay hydrated
when it’s hot out. In fact, a
recent clinical trial (set to
publish summer 2015) found
Essentia’s alkalized functional
water to hydrate 88 percent
better than a leading brand of
regular, purified bottled water.
It’s also been touted for its
high-alkaline and electrolyteinfused process that tastes
great and has many benefits
such as reduced belly bloat
– a plus when you don that
summer swimsuit! Plus
Essentia has a great sports
bottle top so you can tote
it to the beach, the yoga
studio, etc.
The Process
Purification
Municipally supplied water
is taken through a process of
microfiltration, reverse osmosis,
and ultraviolet exposure to
achieve a purity of 99.9 percent.
Electrolyte Infusion
Trace amounts of pure, foodgrade alkaline minerals are
infused into the purified water.
This proprietary mineral blend
includes potassium, magnesium,
calcium and sodium bicarbonate.
It simulates the electrolytes
that occur naturally in the body.
Ionic Separation
Oxidized acidic water clusters
are separated from the alkaline
water clusters and then removed
from the water. Alkaline mineral
concentrations are increased in
the optimally alkaline water
pH of 9.5.
Essentia Difference
Essentia removes acidic water
clusters and increases the
alkaline earth minerals, resulting
in an optimally higher pH of 9.5.
Essentia’s IST allows for charged
electrolytes, easy absorption
and, therefore, optimal
hydration.
Essentia has been shown
in a clinical pilot study to
contribute to rapid rehydration
of firefighters under extreme
physical exertion and harsh
environmental conditions.
Accuracy in Testing
Purified Water: A calibrated pH
meter must be used to properly
test pure waters like Essentia.
Calibration should be performed
with at least two standard
buffer solutions that span
the range of pH values to be
measured. For genera
