A friend of mine emailed me a set of 20 unique uses for Bounce [dryer sheets] that have some usefullness, so I’m passing it along:
It will chase ants away when you lay a sheet near them. It also repels mice.
Spread sheets around foundation areas, or in trailers, or cars that are sitting and it keeps mice from entering your vehicle.
It takes the odor out of books and photo albums that don’t get opened too often.
It repels mosquitoes. Tie a sheet of Bounce through a belt loop when outdoors during mosquito season.
Eliminate static electricity from your television (or computer) screen.
Since Bounce is designed to help eliminate static cling, wipe your television screen with a used sheet of Bounce to keep dust from resettling..
Dissolve soap scum from shower doors. Clean with a sheet of Bounce.
To freshen the air in your home – Place an individual sheet of Bounce in a drawer or hang in the closet.
Put Bounce sheet in vacuum cleaner.
Prevent thread from tangling. Run a threaded needle through a sheet of Bounce before beginning to sew.
Prevent musty suitcases. Place an individual sheet of Bounce inside empty luggage before storing.
To freshen the air in your car – Place a sheet of Bounce under the front seat.
Clean baked-on foods from a cooking pan. Put a sheet in a pan, fill with water, let sit overnight, and sponge clean. The anti-static agent apparently weakens the bond between the food and the pan.. Eliminate odors in wastebaskets. Place a sheet of Bounce at the bottom of the wastebasket.
Collect cat hair. Rubbing the area with a sheet of Bounce will magnetically attract all the lose hairs.
Eliminate static electricity from Venetian blinds. Wipe the blinds with a sheet of Bounce to prevent dust from resettling.
Wipe up sawdust from drilling or sand papering. A used sheet of Bounce will collect sawdust like a tack cloth.
Eliminate odors in dirty laundry. Place an individual sheet of Bounce at the bottom of a laundry bag or hamper. Deodorize shoes or sneakers. Place a sheet of Bounce in your shoes or sneakers overnight.
Golfers put a Bounce sheet in their back pocket to keep the bees away.
Put a Bounce sheet in your sleeping bag and tent before folding and storing them. It will keep them smelling fresh.
Wet a Bounce sheet, hose down your car, and wipe lovebugs off easily with the wet Bounce.
Here are some comprehensive video demos for the new AlkaPod portable water ionizer. I have to say, that for a little portable water ionizer these results are very impresive! The results for a regular water ionizer would, of course, be even more impressive, but it’s nice to know that you can get these kinds of results with this small portable water ionizer!
AlkaPod Portable Water Ionizer: Summary of Video Demos
Test 1 – pH Testing
Alkaline water can help to counteract the acidic wastes in the body, improving the pH balance and overall wellness.
1. Take two clear glasses. Pour regular drinking water from the tap or a bottle into the left container.
2. Pour water from your AlkaPod into the right container.
3. Add 3 drops of pH reagent into both containers.
4. Yellow color shows acidity or green shows neutral. The blue or purple color shows a strong alkaline pH.
Test 2 – Dissolved Oil Test
Shows how well fatty substances dissolve or emulsify in the treated water from your AlkaPod.
1. Pour the same amount of any type of edible oil into two clear gasses.
2. Pour regular drinking water into the left container.
3. Pour water from the AlkaPod into the right container.
4. In the left container the oil and water are separated. In the right container the oil is emulsified.
Test 3 – Neutralization of alcohol acidity
1. Pour some water from your AlkaPod into a container and add 3 drops of pH reagent.
2. Pour a small amount of distilled spirit into the container and see how it instantly becomes very acidic.
3. Pour some more energy water from your AlkaPod into the container and see how the acid fluid is counteracted and a good pH restored.
Test 4 – Neutralization of acidity caused by cigarette smoke
1. Simulate a healthy fluid by pouring some water from your AlkaPod into a glass container then adding a few drops of pH reagent.
2. Have a smoker blow smoke into the container then swirl around so that the smoke is absorbed into the water. Notice how the pH of the water is changed into a toxic acid.
3. Pour some more water from your AlkaPod into the container and see how the pH changes back to alkaline.
Test 5 – Neutralizing Acidity from Glucose (sugar) Test
1. Pour some water from your AlkaPod into a glass container and add 3 drops of pH reagent.
2. Pour some glucose into the container and see how the water becomes very acidic.
3. Pour more water from your AlkaPod into the container until it converts back to alkaline state.
Test 6 – Testing Instruments ORP Meter – is used to test the Oxygen Reduction Potential. If this value is negative then water has an abundance of free electrons and can help as an antioxidant to neutralize free radical damage.
TDS Meter – is used to test the dissolved mineral content in the water.
Conductivity Meter – is used to test the water’s conductive properties..
I have grown very fond of my Nefful Gloves over the past several months!
Now, I’m so spoiled, that I don’t even want to get on the computer without my Nefful Gloves. I must be sensitive to the electronics in the keyboard and mouse, because the electronics in them really have been bothersome to me. I didn’t have this problem long ago when I only used a computer once in a while. But now I use the computer over 8 or even sometimes 10 hours per day, and I suppose with that amount of use my body [my right "mouse" hand in particular] is very bothered by the continuous bombardment of positive ions.
When I heard about negative ion clothing, I immediately thought about how helpful a Nefful glove might be in protecting my hand from the ions emanating from the computer mouse, so I bought my first pair. That style of Nefful glove was the kind without the fingers [which I thought would be easier to type with], and though I liked them a lot I like the kind I have now a lot better!
I wasn’t sure if wearing a Nefful glove on my right hand would slow down my typing or not. I’m very glad to say that it hasn’t.
Here is a video of me wearing and describing my Nefful glove.
Does Nefful Clothing Have a Negative ORP Just Like Ionized Water?
Yep! I had heard that Nefful clothing had a negative ORP, and I had seen it tested last summer when I bought my first pair of Nefful gloves. I thought you had to have a special ORP meter designed for air, and I didn’t realize that my ORP meter, designed for use with water, would be able to show changes in the ORP of the clothing or the air around the clothing. The other day, when I was getting ready to do some research for this post, I got the idea to test the ORP of the Nefful glove to see if my meter would show anything of interest. Sure enough, the Nefful glove gets greater than a -1000 ORP! I was pretty surprised! I don’t even know what I expected…but not that. My computer screen got greater than +1000 ORP. Wow! What a difference. You’re actually not supposed to test back and forth [negative/positive] like that with these meters, because the greater the fluctuations cause an electronic upset in the meter. You can see in this next video how much variation was in the ORP on or around the Nefful glove verses my cotton shirt. I couldn’t do too much of this kind of testing, though, because I’d ruin my ORP meter if I did. Here’s the video:
I decided to become a distributer [ID # 421551] of Nefful last summer, when I was introduced to this wonderful negative ion clothing by an affiliate of mine. It’s an MLM [multi-level-marketing] company, and anyone can join! So, if you want to join up — great! Or, if you want to purchase products as a customer, you would need either call me or if you sign up as a customer online, you’ll need to include my name and ID# as your distributor or sponsor in your application.
What’s the Future of Negative Ion Clothing?
I’m not sure. I know I’ll be a lifetime customer of the gloves. This is all patented, but perhaps others will come out with similar brands for the same thing someday. That would cause more competition and possibly bring the prices down a bit. That would be nice.
What Do Water Ionizers Have to Do With Weight Loss?
Water Ionizers provide you with alkaline water which helps you to lose weight. It particularly helps eliminate “plateaus” in losing weight. When you lose weight the fats that come out of your cells must go into the bloodstream to be eliminated, but sometimes your body won’t let this happen. Body fat is acidic and full of toxins. Alkaline water buffers the acids and safely promotes removal of the acids and toxins from your body. “Safety” is the key word here. Your body is not going to allow any fats or toxins to be eliminated if it perceives it as a threat. So, that’s why buffering is a must. Alkaline ionized water’s most important function is to provide your body with buffers.
Weight management is a touchy subject, and losing weight is definitely easier for some people than others, however for me weight management has been consistently easier since I purchased my first water ionizer back in 1993. I am no longer touchy about weight loss, because I know if I go on a cruise or other vacation whatever weight I gain will be able to come off…I’m not worried about it anymore. Drinking ionized water has definitely given me a real advantage in achieving my weight management goals.
Why Learn the Gabriel Method of Weight Loss?
I always keep my eyes open for natural weight management truths. While it’s true that ionized water is part of the answer to effective and long-term weight management, it’s not the whole story. Weight loss can be a multi-faceted problem and very frustrating endeavor if you only know part of the facts about effective weight management. I thoroughly believe that with knowledge comes POWER. That’s why I promote the Gabriel Method of Weight Loss. John Gabriel was a walking/talking example of everything that is frustrating about weight loss, and he did the very same things that many people have done…looked/learned/tried/gave up/looked/learned/tried…. But until he found the right answers he simply didn’t make headway in the long-run. On the contrary, he only gained more weight in the end. But now John Gabriel is a walking/talking example of “Knowledge is Power”. Just look at him in the videos below. I’ll let him speak for himself on how he found the answers…he does a GREAT job! He shares all he’s learned [and it is very comprehensive] in his program, you can purchase here: Gabriel Method of Weight Loss . I bought the program, because I think it’s very cheap to spend $35.00 and 11 hours of my time learning the knowledge it took an obviously intelligent and successful person to learn in several years. To me it’s a no-brainer to value the hard-earned knowledge of another like-minded individual. I’m suggesting that if you have weight-management issues you learn his method. He does not over-simplify or over-complicate the weight loss problem…he hits it right on the button.
Water Ionizers, Weight Loss & the Gabriel Method
As a society we are very ignorant of how to effectively win the battle of body vs. mind regarding the state of our weight. Our bodies are constantly battling our minds over the subject. In the Gabriel Method of natural, healthy weight loss you learn how to win the battle of mind over body. You learn how to work with your body, not against it. You learn how to teach your body to listen to you about the weight You want to be. You learn how to keep your body satisfied, so it won’t think you’re starving. This is an important thing to learn, because if your body thinks you’re starving it WILL NOT allow you to lose a single pound. Mr. Gabriel’s story is worth shouting from the rooftops!
Here’s a little from John Gabriel, himself, about his Method Natural Weight Management System
In the News…
I encourage anyone who has an interest in healthy, natural weight management to check out John Gabriel’s complete program: the Gabriel Method of natural, healthy weight loss. It is 100% satisfaction guaranteed [which I think says a lot]. The program in its entirety is very inexpensive [about $35.00] and the guarantee assures you that if for whatever reason you don’t feel this is the program for you, you can get your money back. What can you lose?
You may wonder what a report on Alzheimer’s is doing in a water ionizer blog.
Several months ago I did some research for a water-ionizer-blog article I was writing on Fluoride. Fluoride is an acidic element which is eliminated to a great extent [into the acid water stream -- bottom hose of your water ionizer ] when your water is ionized….THANK GOODNESS!
What I discovered in my Fluoride research had a great impact on me:
Fluoride is linked to Alzheimer’s, learning disabilities and many other diseases.
It’s actually a poison [similar in its effects to lead poisoning]. This discovery hit-home with me, because my Mother had just died of Alzheimer’s and that was an awful disease. It’s the kind of disease where you really actually lose your loved one long before their body dies. In other words, she was so filled with dimentia, she was not herself for years, before she actually died. She actually didn’t remember anything meaningful for life: her family, her past, or even who she was, and this wonderfully strong, smart, and independent woman became a complete dependent until she finally couldn’t even breathe for herself anymore.
In my research I discovered [as many before me had] that the toxic wastes of aluminum manufacturing have been [at the tax-payer's expense] dumped into our water supplies for the past 40+ years! Actually I knew Fluoride was added to the water, but like almost everyone else in the country, I trusted that this additive was safe for us [and needed] or it wouldn’t be added. In my research I discovered vast amounts of reports implicating the ingestion of Fluoride as being linked to many diseases [including Alzheimer's and learning disabilities] and very unsafe, and I also discovered that virtually nothing was being done to stop it.
Back in the day when adding Fluoride was a new idea, the authorities [the people studying Fluoride safety] were the very same scientists who said the atom bomb testing was safe. These were the leading authorities of the day…but were later discredited and found to be biased [in fact they needed to say Fluoride was safe or they would be exposed for the great damages they'd authorized]. What we did [as a country] was: 1. Take the word of people with an agenda [that Fluoride was safe] 2. We set up a system of dumping Fluoride into drinking water, and 3. We never put in the proper checks and balances to ensure this was a good decision, 4. We never re-evaluated to make sure that the actual proper studies were done [by independent non-biased researchers] as to the safety of this Fluoride dumping, 5. We didn’t even re-evaluate when it was discovered that the original “authorities” had an agenda to make Fluoride look good, and 6. We didn’t really research Fluoride well enough to find out that the only real benefit of Fluoride was when it was applied topically, and that ingesting it was poisonous!
Please read my article on Fluoride if you haven’t already done so. We need people to put the pressure on the EPA, other government agencies and their federal, state and local representatives to take action in stopping the dumping of Fluoride into our municipal water. The scientists who gave the stamp of approval to adding fluoride to municipal water all over the country were later discredited as being corrupt. There are no really validated reasons anymore for dumping this poison into our water! At the time when my mother got Alzheimer’s, I didn’t know there was something I could have done, right then, to help her. Since then, I’ve discovered a few things which can be done, and I will share these with you [below]. As I discover more things I’ll add them to my blog.
What can you do to help reduce your risk of Alzheimer’s?
Use a fluoride prefilter or reverse-osmosis-remineralizer to take out all the harmful junk in your water and then add back in all organic, healthy minerals.
Use a water ionizer [of course] to get rid of the acidic elements that may remain after prefiltration and alkalize your body.
Here’s really the meat of this blog-post: A customer sent me this link [knowing I was interested in Alzheimers]. When I read it I was amazed! I did some further research and found a six-part video series with the doctor who wrote the article. So, naturally I included the video series in this blog-post [see below]. It’s a must-see video series. Even if you don’t know someone with Alzheimer’s now, chances are you will. With the growing prevalence of this disease, there are predicted to be over 50 million people with Alzheimer’s by 2050 [unless, of course, we do some smart things to prevent it. I wish I had this 5 years ago, and so I'm passing it on to you! It has nothing to do with water ionizers, but I just feel compelled to share it. It's an article from a doctor whose husband at 58 years old got Alzheimer's. She tried all the conventional treatments for Alzheimer's, and none stopped the rapid onset of dimentia for her husband. His disease came on suddenly, and progressed quickly. Due to effort, luck and her superior ability to put two and two together, Dr. Mary Newport has actually found something that is working to reverse part of the damage done by Alzheimers. But it's not a drug: it's all natural. With more research, this may become the cure of the century. Don't wait till Alzheimers happens to you or a loved one to read this article...the steps described in the article [and videos] could actually prevent Alzheimer’s, and it won’t be anytime soon before this study has reached its conclusion. In the meantime, people learning about Dr. Mary Newport’s work are trying the methods she outlines and seeing remarkable benefits. Like she says, “It can’t hurt to try.” Read this article and watching the videos [below]. I believe it could change your future health dramatically. Here is the article: http://www.coconutketones.com/WhatIfCure.pdf
Brief Summary of Alzheimer’s Article: Dr. Mary Newport live in Fllorida [interestingly near an aluminum manufacturer]. Dr Newport’s husband at the time of the article [July, 2008] was 58 years old and had Alzheimer’s. He started showing signs of it years earlier, and they were very dilligent in getting him all the best treatment. Despite the exceptional care and treatment, his condition worsened very quickly. Dr. Newport continued to study medical journals in hope that she’d find something that helped her husband. Finally, through chance, luck, and probably because she was really looking, she read about a study using a nutritional substance, Ketasyn, which is another name for MCT oil, which was making some impressive improvements in about half the patients. She wanted her husband in that study, but he didn’t qualify [as he was too far gone]. However, with further digging she found that this oil can be found in health-food stores in the form of natural, extra-virgin, organic coconut oil. Because she understood this research article and was able to find the oil, she attempted on her own to help her husband. Almost instantly her husband’s mental abilities improved drastically. At the time of the article, he wasn’t fully recovered, but the fact of improvement was clearly significant. Nothing was stopping the rapid decline before that. The point of Dr. Newport’s article was to help raise awareness for all people. This oil can be taken by anyone, and is actually very healthy for you. I, for one, went ahead and ordered some yesterday. Here’s the link I used: http://www.assuredorganics.com/oils.html although you can get it from many sources. This company offers large quantities at cheap prices.
Here is the 6-part YouTube video interview with Dr. Mary Newport:
This is all new late-breaking news! I will contact this doctor and follow her research…and bring you the latest reports as I find them, so stay tuned! Also here are links to Dr. Mary Newport’s website and Blog:
I’m re-posting this because my wrist, which broke a year ago, is feeling better after wearing my new Negative Ion gloves…I wanted to alert and update people to this interesting new healing fabric: Negative Ion Fabric [or otherwise known as Nefful]! After a year of stiffness and some numbness in the area of a break to my wrist, I am happy to feel some more pliability come back to this area. My ultimate goal is a full return of sensation and flexibility to the area, and an elimination of all stiffness. It’s only been 3 weeks, so this is good progress. I’ll continue to keep you posted as time goes on.
I actually have felt it helped my wrist so much that I’m getting my husband some negative ion socks for Christmas. He’s had a sore heal [causing him great pain at times] for over a year. I hope the negative ion [Nefful] socks help! I’ll keep you posted!
If you’re interested in getting more information sent to you about the negative ion clothing or talking with me personally about it, please contact me: support@alkaline-water-plus.info or 1-888-MY-ALKALINE.

The Value of Negative ORP, Water Ionizers & Nefful Clothing to Your Health
I’m trying a new product, which has a high potential for me to sell on my website [in my Other Products section], because it’s related to ionized water. It’s called Nefful Clothing. You can find out more about this clothing at http://www.neffulusa.com/. Here’s a chart comparing the benefits of both water ionizers and Nefful Clothing.
A water ionizer collects the negative ions from the water and concentrates them in your alkaline ionized water [drinking water] side of your water ionizer’s water cell. So when you’re drinking ionized water you are getting the benefit of the ionized water’s negative ORP.You’ll also benefit from the ionized water’s alkalinity, its small water-cluster size, its state-of-the-art filtration, along with its negative ORP.Negative ORP is another way of saying antioxidant. It fights the free-radicals that are attacking your cells. The oxidation of cells can be seen as a rotting process…like when a cut apple turns brown. In today’s world we are bombarded with too many positive ions and overly oxidizing foods [soda, flour, processed foods, …] Therefore drinking water with a high negative ORP can reverse the downhill health-trend caused by an excess of free-radicals in the body.A water ionizer has been around for 50 years…mostly in the orient and has undergone many trials and tests with animals, plants and people.A water ionizer has been found to be beneficial for all kinds of health-related ailments, ranging from allergies to cancer. This is because your body, to be healthy, needs to be slightly alkaline.
It also needs to have a ready supply of negative ORP [antioxidants] to combat the free-radical damage of oxidation.
It also needs to be hydrated.
The use of a water ionizer helps provide your body with all of these staples for your health.
When I started drinking ionized water 17 years ago I noticed my allergies went away [and they’ve continued to stay away all these years]!
Nefful clothing attracts negative ions from the air, bringing them near your skin…so they can be absorbed into your skin and body.In today’s world we are bombarded with too many positive ions and overly oxidizing foods [soda, processed foods, air pollution, proximity to electric lines, electronics...] The skin, being the largest organ of your body, has a property of being able to absorb negative and positive ions. Positive ions, just like tap water’s positive ORP, are oxidizing. This is the kind of ion your skin usually absorbs. Ions [whether they're positive or negative] don’t just stop at the skin, they absorb right on into your blood and other organs. Positive ions are also called free radicals. Negative ions are needed to combat these positive ions free radicals. Nefful clothing is a fairly new invention. It’s been around for about 10 years or less…mostly in the orient. It is made of a material designed to attract negative ions to it.Nefful clothing has created a lot of buzz lately. That’s because people wearing this clothing are having noticeable health benefits.
I visited the Nefful USA main office the other day, and met many people who absolutely swear by this clothing.
The stories they are telling sound like my own experiences and stories I’ve heard from people drinking ionized water.
One lady was describing how all kinds of allergy symptoms were no longer plaguing her! Another story was about a man whose skin condition of psoriasis was cured.
This appears to be very similar to what a water ionizer can do for you.
So, what’s the relationship between a water ionizer and Nefful clothing? Both provide your body with negative ions, which are healthy for your body.
Here’s how I’m using the Nefful clothing myself. I broke by wrist a year ago, and it is still kind of stiff and a little numb in the area. I bought some Nefful wrist-band/gloves and in wearing these I’m hoping to provide more negative ions to the area of my wrist and thus help it to loosen up and feel better. So far I can say my wrist feels better when I’m wearing these. I’ve only been wearing these Nefful gloves for a few days, so it’s probably too soon to evaluate. The numbness and stiffness are still there, but seem reduced.
I also do a lot of work on the computer and my fingers and hands do not like the effect of the positive ions bombarding them. For the past three days I’ve been wearing the Nefful gloves [mainly to see if it would help my wrist]. I have noticed my wrist feels better, but also as a side benefit I noticed that my hands don’t feel bombarded when I’m on the computer as long as I’m wearing the Nefful gloves. I think I’m not going to want to part with these Nefful gloves [so I better get another pair], because I’ll need to wash these and I just hate to part with them for even a few hours. Here’s a video of me with my Nefful gloves.
Would I suggest one over the other [water ionizer vs Nefful]? Yes, if you are short on cash, start with the water ionizer. A water ionizer is going to do more than just provide your body with negative ions. Your body is made mostly of water, and so it is important that your water source is a healthy one. The right filtration, pH and ORP are all equally important to your health. A water ionizer will last 20 years or so, and when you break it all down it is an inexpensive way to provide yourself and family with what I’ve found to be the most awesome preventative health benefits around.
From what I can see, it looks like the Nefful clothing is a nice addition to a health-conscious line-up of preventative health measures. It is expensive though. If money is no issue, I’d of course suggest both. Try the Nefful. I’m trying it. It feels good to wear.
I have signed up as a Nefful dealer, and because of that I’m able to get a 20% discount on my purchases. Of course, being an MLM, there are all kinds of dreams of making mega-bucks with this clothing line, but for me, I’m just happy with my 20% discount. If you are interested in signing up as a Nefful distributor, call or email me and I’ll get you started…or at least get you more information. Or if you just want to purchase something, contact me and I can get it to you.
I’ll keep you posted from time to time about how the Nefful gloves are helping my wrist and/or anything else that I learn about this interesting material as time goes on.
A lot of people love having their water ionizer right there on the counter-top, but don’t like the hoses showingl. The G2 Faucet has a luxurious look to it, and for only $120.00 you can have this on your sink.
The G2 Faucet works as a hose attachment port. Instead of hoses going here, there and everywhere, you simply attach your two [water input and acid water output] hoses to the back of the G2 Faucet. Then you can turn on your water supply to your water ionizer right there at that faucet. Also, the acid water from your water ionizer dispenses from the spout of the G2 Faucet.
The G2 Faucet is attractive, easy to use and inexpensive! It can be used with any countertop water ionizer. The G2 Faucet can be used with Life, Enagic, Jupiter, Chanson, Tyent, and KYK water ionizers, and it makes a very luxurious addition to your water ionizer set-up.

From what I can see, it looks like the Nefful clothing is a nice addition to a health-conscious line-up of preventative health measures. It is expensive though. If money is no issue, I’d of course suggest both. Try the Nefful. I’m trying it. It feels good to wear.
I have signed up as a Nefful dealer, and because of that I’m able to get a 20% discount on my purchases. Of course, being an MLM, there are all kinds of dreams of making mega-bucks with this clothing line, but for me, I’m just happy with my 20% discount. If you are interested in signing up as a Nefful distributor, call or email me and I’ll get you started…or at least get you more information. Or if you just want to purchase something, contact me and I can get it to you.
I’ll keep you posted from time to time about how the Nefful gloves are helping my wrist and/or anything else that I learn about this interesting material as time goes on.
This is a water [bath] dechlorinator that works by changing the chlorine in your tap water to harmless chloride. Similar to sodium chloride, table salt, any chloride will be more neutral and harmless than chlorine. The manufacturer also claims that the quartz crystals in the Bath Ball splits the water into smaller clusters, and thus makes your use of soap or shampoo more efficient. It is claimed to be safe, healthy for your skin and body [eliminates chlorine gas which in hot baths you may breathe in], and works in minutes. Here’s the video:
When I tested the chlorine level of the bath ball water vs. regular tap water, this showed on the chart as the same. This is because with the Rainshow’r Bath Ball the chlorine isn’t actually removed. There is no filter here — it’s not a bath filter – just a chemical change from chlorine to chloride, so the tester won’t show a difference.
When I bathed in the Rainshow’r Bath Ball water I did like it. I like baths anyway, though, so I’m not sure as of yet if I can attest to a difference. I like it though, so I’ll continue to use the Bath Ball Bath Dechlorinator. It is supposed to last for 300 baths or a year! After that you can just get a replacement pouch rather than a whole new ball.
I filed this post under Hydrogen Stick, because as soon as I tested the Waterman Portable Ionizer Pitcher and saw how well it did – instantly – I thought of the Hydrogen Stick and how poorly that did. I tested and tested and tested the Hydrogen Stick and couldn’t get enough pH/ORP change [even after a full day of soaking] to justify even considering selling it on my site. It just didn’t get results. I was so hopeful too [because so many people could have been helped without having to chuck out so much cash upfront] …but no results are no results. Because of the experience I had with the Hydrogen Stick, I was wary of the Waterman. I held my expectations at bay…and if I had any expectations at all, they were low. So when I tested the Waterman [see video, below] I was amazed! Priced at less than the Hydrogen Stick, with refills at less than 1/3 of the cost of the Hydrogen Stick, this little, tiny, beautiful, convenient, Waterman Portable Ionizer Pitcher really does ionize water!!! You have to see it to believe it. Watch the video!
I bought the Waterman Portable Water Ionizer Pitcher so I could test it and see how well it ionizes the water…and of course use it. Well, I’m pretty impressed! This little portable ionizer pitcher does a great job of ionizing the water.
First, let me tell you just a little about the Waterman Water Ionizer Pitcher. It has a central cartridge which contains alkaline minerals, silver activated carbon, somelite coral sand, magnets, bioceramics and filter media. This little water ionizer which doesn’t even plug in filters out 99% of chlorine, heavy metals, bacteria and 85% of fluoride. Then the Waterman Portable Water Ionizer actually remineralizes with good alkaline minerals. After all that the water ends up ionized.
I have a lot more explanation about the Waterman Portable Water Ionizer Pitcher on my website, but here’s something I don’t have on my website: a video demonstration of setting up & testing the Waterman Portable Water Ionizer Pitcher! Take a look!
As you can see, the results of the testing was fantastic! The tap water started out at +350 ORP and just by funneling down through the central cartridge, it transformed to a sensational negative (antioxidizing) -130 ORP with no electricity whatsoever…just gravity! Wow. And it happened instantly! This means you could take this with you hiking, boating, to work, and even onto an airplane! I wish I had this last week! I hate the RO water they give you in the airplane!
And one final thing: this petite in size, but giant in effectiveness, portable water ionizer will continue filtering water for about 800 liters! That’s a long time.
This is just one more reason not to buy the Hydrogen Stick!
I have the Waterman Pitchers on sale right now (I’m not sure for how long) for $57.95. Extra filters cost 3 @ $60. for any number as long as you purchase them with the pitcher. Here’s something just for you…shhh!…if you tell me you saw this blog article, I’ll sell you a set of 4 Waterman Portable Water Ionizers for $200.00. Enough for the whole family! But you’ll need to email me support@alkaline-water-plus.info or call 314-452-9560 or 888-420-1420.
Does this replace the need to buy a regular water ionizer? NO, NO, NO, NO……Really, NO! This does not replace a regular water ionizer. It’s like getting a bike instead of a car. The car will take you farther, faster, and in the long run will save you money [because of all the time you save], but it has a bigger upfront cash output. Would I ever tell you to get a bike instead of a car? NO WAY. But if you were broke…I may suggest you plan to get both. Start with the bike and save up for the car.
Wishing You Water Wellness!
