When you freeze ionized water, what does that process do to the ionized water?

Taking ionized water directly from a water ionizer and pouring it into ice cube trays, and then freezing it…will your pH and ORP from ionization cancel out, reduce, or stay the same? And if so, how much?

In these videos, I demonstrate filling ice cube trays with ionized water from Level 3 of my Tyent 7070 water ionizer at 11.25 pH and -853 ORP.  When the cubes were frozen, they were removed, placed in a cup and allowed to thaw out.

The 2nd video shows the testing of the water after thawing out.

As you can see in the videos, the fresh ionized water taken directly from the water ionizer had a high pH and ORP, yet, when frozen and thawed, the pH reduced from 11.25 to 9.96 [still alkaline, but greatly reduced.] The ORP was even more drastic of a reduction. It went from -853 to +102 [a 955 point rise!].

Conclusion: The product of frozen ionized water is still filtered water, still alkaline even though greatly reduced, and has changed vectors to a positive ORP. Therefore…

If you’re making ice, go ahead and use your strongest alkaline setting! Also… ice is far less healthy for you than fresh ionized water straight from the water ionizer.

Should You Habitually Try to Sweeten Your Ionized Water or Add Things to It?

No. Ionized Water is about as close to perfect as you can get, but when you add things to it, watch out what you add. You can be transforming beautiful alkaline ionized water into acidic water…like I did in this test!

Crystal Light is a Cool-Aid type of drink mix, which my children like to add to their ionized water. I decided to test and see if this [seemingly harmless mix] did anything significant to change the quality of my ionized water…and it did! Really I was surprised by such drastic results! Having done tea and coffee experiments in the past, I suspected that there would be some significant change in the pH and ORP of the water after adding the Crystal Light. But this was far greater change [especially in the pH of the ionized water] than even I expected!

So, the lesson to learn is…learn how to love your ionized water all by itself! Some people naturally love ionized water, and with others …they need to train their taste buds, that’s all! Be careful of what you add to your ionized water, and if you do add things, do it only periodically…not all the time!

I tested coffee for its acidity using her pH meter. I made the coffee using my alkaline ionized water from my Melody water ionizer. The water coming out of this ionizer is nicely alkaline at a pH of 11. Will the coffee be acidic or alkaline? You’re invited to watch this quick and easy video and see what you can find out. 

As you can see, despite the fact that the water was so highly alkaline to begin with, the fact of dripping it through the coffee pot to make coffee changed it and made it over 10,000 times more acidic! Here’s to learning something new every day!

So, if you were wondering how much coffee could you safely drink in a day, here’s my advice: Without a water ionizer, drink none! With your own water ionizer, and if you drink about 3/4 gallon or more ionized water daily, I think it’s safe to drink a 16 oz. cup of coffee daily. I do. But not without an ionizer!

Can You Store Your Ionized Water? If so, for How Long and In What Kind of Bottle?

People bring their ionized water to work or school with them all the time. They store it in plastic bottles usually. Which makes sense, because who wants to deal with glass…which breaks. I did some testing of water stored in a glass bottle verses plastic. You can see on the two videos that I tested two different types of plastic bottle and a plastic cup (with a straw hole). I tested it after 4 1/2 hours and again after 24 hours. So make a guess, which will be the winner? And, how much difference, if any, is found in the pH and ORP of the water in different containers?

Here’s to learning something new every day!

Should Alkaline Ionized Water be Stored in a Glass or a Plastic Container?

Cathie, from Alkaline Water Plus [at http://www.alkalinewaterplus.com ] one day ago poured ionized water from a Jupiter Melody water ionizer into a glass container and at the same time poured the same ionized water into a plastic container. Now, one day later she is demonstrating the testing of the water in both containers. The ionized water tested originally at 11 pH and -245 ORP]. Now one day later the water in the glass container tests at 10.82 pH and -225 ORP. The water in the plastic cup tests 10.61 pH and -137 ORP. The conclusion is that it is better to store your ionized water in a glass bottle if you’re storing it for over just a few hours. However the water stored in a plastic cup for a full 24-hour day was still far better than tap water. Go to our Blog: http://www.alkalinewaterplus.info to see the charted results, other similar tests, and more info on pH and ORP.
