Life-Changing Water

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Do you want to feel better and welcome spring with increased energy?

We discovered the magic ingredient is plentiful and readily available.

All you need to do is stay hydrated by drinking 8 glasses of water throughout the day. That seemed easy enough, but most of the foods and beverages we consume are full of acidity. So, we thought perhaps some alkaline water would help establish a better balance. We then chatted with Pamela Barinoff, a certified nutritional consultant and co-owner of Cerra Water and were in for a great surprise. Stay tuned to see what happened.

What can high quality alkaline water do for me?
