Crohn's Disease & Kangen Water

I was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease approximately 20 years ago.
I started drinking Kangen Water approximately in December of 2008. For the last 3 years my disease had slowly but steadily gotten worse. There are many foods such as certain fruits and vegetables that I could no longer tolerate to eat. Loose stools and diarrhea became the norm and not the exception. Heartburn and acid reflux were an everyday occurrence for me. I had decided that this was just the way my life was going to be. I was always going to have to keep my medication with me and say goodbye to the foods I could no longer eat. I would probably have as I got older, at the least, scarred intestines and at the worst, colon cancer. The very first day I started drinking Kangen Water, my heartburn and acid reflux disappeared. Within a week my stools became normal and I actually had a bit of constipation. That hadn't happened since I was 18! I haven't had to take any medication for my Crohn’s since I started drinking Kangen Water. I'm slowly adding back the foods that I couldn't have and am glad to report that I can tolerate lettuce and grapes again. I'm so looking forward to trying watermelon this summer. I have missed that the most. Because of the very nature of my disease, my body does not absorb vitamins very well, especially the B vitamins. On top of that, vitamin supplements made me sick to my stomach. Not only is my body now getting vitamins from my food more effectively, but I can tolerate supplements again.

I always thought that I slept well for the most part but after a week of drinking Kangen Water I realized I didn't know what good sleep was. I woke up refreshed (I thought that was just a saying) and ready to start my day. I still have aches and pains, because I'm an active 42 year old, but the strains and pinches don't last as long or are as intense as they used to be. A strained back muscle no longer knocks me down for the rest of the day but only for a few hours. I don't have to take stronger medications to get rid of the pain like ibuprofen (which irritates the stomach) but can get by with just Tylenol.

I always knew water was good for you and an important part of bodily function, but I never thought it could change my health so dramatically. Thank you Mindy, Rick, and Kangen Water!
