As a long-time educator [I was a teacher/principal for over 24 years], I am very interested in educating people [and giving people the straight scoop] about water ionizers. I will not allow myself to sell a product that could do harm or isn’t tested thoroughly enough for safety. I also personally, have been drinking ionized water for over 16 years, along with my family and extended family. I can safely say that I am healthier today, at age 59, than when I started drinking it at age 43! The reason I am selling water ionizers today is because a water ionizer is the one, single, best, health product I have ever purchased. So after retiring from teaching I decided to pursue this passion.

How do vitamins fit in with water ionizers?

Another benefit: Since I’ve been drinking ionized water, my intake of vitamins and minerals have lowered. I take a normal amount of vitamins today, but took a greater than normal amount 20 years ago…because I wasn’t as healthy then as I am today. Last year my husband and I had our blood fully analyzed and, just as we knew it would, every level of dozens of things the test covered was perfect.

Medical Uses for Water Ionizers:

There is one particular water ionizer that claims to be the only one suitable for medical uses [such as if a person has cancer or some other condition they are worried about]. This is bogus and absolutely, completely, 100% untrue. The actual fact of the matter is that it is a sales pitch and it is in my opinion bordering on fraud.

Water ionizers, in general, have been approved for manufacturing in 1965 by the Japanese Ministry of Health and Welfare as medical equipment to produce medical substances.

In Japan, Korea, and Taiwan, water ionizers are considered as medical devices, but also as water treatment devices. In the U.S., water ionizers are not considered medical devices, and it could be risky for a company to market them as such. Enagic gets away with their marketing, because mostly these claims are being made person to person or in closed group settings. However it is a risky thing to do, and could put the company out of business or at least cause some damage in the way of fines. Several years ago, when I started hearing the claims by Enagic dealers, I decided to find out for myself. I was perfectly willing to switch companies if the Enagic was better. I just wanted to know. I cannot tell you how many times I have tested and retested [and retested and retested] their water ionizer against the other two top water ionizers, the Athena and Tyent water ionizers, as well as other water ionizers, and other than an occasional higher pH [for cleaning water…too high to drink] and a higher flow-rate [which in my opinion is not a good thing…because the filtration suffers when the flow-rate is too fast] the Athena is better. The Tyent is probably tied…but the warranty is better with the Tyent and so is the price.

For long-term use, when is it best to consume ionized water?

It is best to consume ionized water away from mealtimes if your meal contains meat. Some also suggest to not drink it while taking medications [vitamins are fine though]. A good rule of thumb is for 20 min. before and 20 min. after meals or taking medications, drink little or no alkaline water. If you like to drink water with meals containing meat, then I suggest you squeeze a slice of lemon into your ionized water and you’ll change the pH of it to acidic or just drink filtered water. The reason for this is that during the initial phases of digestion your stomach needs to maintain a more acidic environment [in particular if your meal contains meat].

How do You Know You’re Getting the Best Quality of Water Ionizer?

One way is to compare the water ionizer’s ORP per Unit of PH: Not all ionizers will give a good ORP at lower pH levels, such as at pH settings of 8 or 8.5. That’s why I’ve done extensive testing of both the pH and ORP of all of the leading water ionizers. I have also tested ionizers in a variety of different locations, so I could get an idea of how source water affects the ORP at the various pH levels.

Why Would People Need the Lower PH Settings of 8 or 8.5?

People whose diets are mostly fruits and vegetables are probably more naturally alkaline and may need to set their ionizers to give them pH levels of about 8 or 8.5. Also, depending on the pH level of your incoming water, some water comes in at already a 8 – 9 pH. In this case, the ionizing of water is still very beneficial, because ORP [oxidation reduction potential, or antioxidant value of the water] delivers over 50% of the health benefits from water ionization.

People whose diets are fairly typical of US, with several trips to a fast food restaurant per week and/or more than 40% of food intake [visually] is from meat and grains will probably be more acidic and need higher pH settings for their ionized water, such as a pH of 9 or 10.

Which are the Best Water Ionizers?

It probably depends a little on your source water [where you live], but I’ll give you a very brief summary of what I’ve found to be the best water ionizers.

Medium-Hardness Water Areas: The best ionizer I’ve found for giving high ORP per unit of pH in medium-hardness water areas is the Athena water Ionizer [and also its under-sink equivalent, the Delphi]. The Tyent is also good, as well as the Enagic, Miracle Max or VS70, in that order, although these perform better at the higher [too high to drink] pH settings and do not get as good ORP per unit of pH in the lower pH settings. The Enagic is not good at getting lower PH levels when the source water is too alkaline to begin with. You can do it, by increasing the flow-rate and reducing the power-setting, but then the ORP is not good.

Soft Water Areas: The ionizer needs to work harder in soft water areas to bring the pH level up. Some water ionizers are more suited to this. The best ionizer I’ve found for giving high pH and ORP in extreme soft water areas [such as BC, Canada, or Washington state] is the Chanson Miracle Max or VS 70 water ionizers. The Athena or Delphi water ionizers are good if you set the pH-Boosting setting up to the highest level, and add a mineral filter to one of the filter ports. In this case you will get fantastic ORP per unit of pH in soft water areas, better than the Miracle Max, however you may not be able to get much higher than an alkaline value of 9.5 or 10 pH or much lower than an acidic potential of 4 or 5 pH [for cleaning purposes]. The Tyent and Enagic water ionizers are great too, probably equal to the Athena for drinking pH-levels, if you add a Remineralizer. In all cases, if you have extremely soft water [either because you have reverse osmosis or if you live in an extreme soft-water area, I recommend using a Remineralizer for the best results. With the addition of a Remineralizer or two, you can boost your incoming hardness to any desired amount.

Very Hard Water Areas: In very hard water areas, such as Arizona or Vegas, or in the case of very hard well-water, it is difficult to use any water ionizer to its full potential unless you do something to fix your source water first. For instance, you may be able to get decent drinking water, but may not be able to get any acid water lower than a pH of 5 or 6. The best results would come from reducing your source water to medium-hardness levels before ionizing it. I have had very good reports from people who have used the Reverse-Osmosis-Remineralizer-System to treat their water prior to ionization. The only down-side to this is the amount of water you are likely to be able to use at any given moment is about 1 ½ gallons. After that, you will need to wait about a half hour before you can pour more. The second-best fix for water that is extremely hard is the Spartan Ionizer Shield. I have several very good reports from happy customers about this product. The Spartan Ionizer Shield pre-filtration system doesn’t reduce your water flow or quantity, and it cuts the hardness in about half. If you use a whole-house softener [which uses sodium or potassium] the Spartan Ionizer Shield wouldn’t be the right product, though. The only effective filtration for sodium or potasium is reverse osmosis.

Are there any long-term concerns about drinking ionized water?

In Japan and Korea, about 15% or so of the population has been drinking ionized water for over 30 years…some even longer. Many hospitals in both Japan and Korea use water ionizers for both its alkalizing/anti-oxidizing properties for drinking and for its acid properties in healing skin sores.

Innumerable tests have been done on mice, rats, chickens, etc., and in almost every instance there were good results noted and no negative results have ever been able to be replicated. There have been no substantiated incidents of negative long-term effects of people drinking ionized water.

I have personally known people who are cancer-free today primarily because of ionized water. My family and extended family are so much healthier because of ionized water! Over the years I have had hundreds of customers who either have written to me or spoken with me on the phone and told me their stories of how water ionizers have help them and their families so much.

Are there negative reports about ionized water?

There are going to be people who will, no matter what it is that you are advocating, will advocate against it. In every case, when I’ve come across a report I have given it my full attention. One chemist was warning people that ionized water could upset the balance in your colon [no proof, of course, just theory]. It seemed like a silly warning, especially in light of all the colonoscopy work that Dr. Shinya has done to show the great things ionized water does for all of his thousands of patients’ colons [Dr. Shinya is the inventor of the colonoscopy]. But even though the claim seemed silly, I still wanted to do all the due-diligence I could. So, just a few months ago my husband and I had comprehensive stool analyses [which showed a perfect supply of good bacteria, zero bad bacteria, zero parasites, and good results in every other way.]

Not only do we feel healthier than ever, but the blood, stool and urine tests my husband and I have done [after drinking ionized water for over 16 years] are showing this as well!

Another health-reporter was worrying people about long-term use [he said short-term use for detoxing was good but not long term...however didn’t specify his reasons]. He hinted at the stomach/colon, and possibly “leaky-gut”, but was elusive [I think he just wanted to sell his newly imported water filters]. So,  in the interest of due-diligence, just last month I had a urinalysis [along with test for leaky-gut] and the comprehensive report showed that all levels for everything tested were perfect. In addition my heart rate and blood pressure were so good the nurse made a comment about how envious she was.

It’s interesting that none of the “authorities” that I’ve run across who have advocated against water ionization have ever actually tried it.

Their reports are obviously flawed in such a way as to show they haven’t much knowledge about water ionizers either. Many health authorities or scientists who HAVE fully checked out water ionizers have concurred with what I know from experience, that the health benefits possible are quite bona fide and even amazing. Here’s a question/answer report of an interview with Ray Kurzweil [inventor/scientist known for his due-diligence] who did in fact check out water ionizers top to bottom and highly advocates them. http://alkalinewaterplus.info/blog/uploaded/Ray_Kurzweil_Q_A.pdf

By the way, the chemist, mentioned above, is an interesting character. He seems to hate everything natural. But he definitely has an agenda, and a great article exposing his agenda can be found here: http://www.canlyme.com/quackwatch.html .

After over 16 years of drinking alkaline ionized water, I can say with conviction that the very best thing I could give to myself or a loved one is a WATER IONIZER! Give yourself and your family the gift of health this year!

Wishing You Water Wellness!

New and Improved Water Ionizer Comparison Chart

As some of you might have noticed we have recently updated our water ionizer comparison chart. The new and improved Alkaline Water Plus Water Ionizer Comparison Chart includes many common questions about the various water ionizers that are regularly asked by water ionizer customers. This chart is made for YOU, to enable you to make a water ionizer choice that you are happy with. After all we are very motivated to ensure our customers are very happy. For one, we’re trying to help you, but because we pay your restocking fee, if you’re not happy with your water ionizer purchase it’s in our financial best interest as well to make sure you are satisfied with your water ionizer once you get it.

In this video I give a thorough and clear overview of the comparison chart. I clarify most if not all questions you might have concerning the water ionizer comparisons being made in each section of the chart. I also give insight into the key points that water ionizer customers would or should be looking for in any water ionizer they’re going to buy.

Before startiing the video I suggest you click this link to pop up a new window with the new and improved Alkaline Water Plus Water Ionizer Comparison Chart on it. http://www.alkalinewaterplus.com/water-ionizer-comparisons. You can then read the chart and follow along with the video.

Keep in mind that I don’t sell the Enagic water ionizer at Alkaline Water Plus. I do sell all other water ionizers featured on this chart. I only include the Enagic water ionizer for comparison purposes.

Some Key Things to Pay Attention to When Thinking About Getting a Water Ionizer are:

How Thoroughly is the Water Ionizer Ionizing the Water at Drinking Levels? [ORP at the Lower Levels]

ORP Per Unit of pH: ORP [antioxidant levels] in water is an important water ionizer comparison feature. At an 11 pH, though, the ORP is irrelevant, because it is too high of a pH to drink. Regardless of this fact, most water ionizer comparison tests are done at the highest settings for each water ionizer. Alkaline Water Plus believes that the ORP should be tested and compared at each level of pH, especially the lower levels. That way the various drinking levels of ionized water are checked for their ORP levels. Some water ionizers are great at getting a good ORP at their highest settings [such as the Enagic] and not at the lower [drinking level] pH settings.

Do the Water Ionizer’s Plates and Electrolysis Chamber Design DO the JOB?

Plate Design Quality: Many water ionizer companies brag about the size of their plates and/or number of electrodes in their water ionizer brand, when the real test of quality in a water ionizer is the ORP per unit of pH [as described above], and that has more to do with the efficient use of electricity than the plate size or quantity. It’s not particularly good to put too much electricity through your plates, however whenever you increase the size or mass that the electricity must go through, it requires more power to do it.

How Well Will the Water Ionizer Perform into the Future?

Plate Cleaning Quality: Very clean platinum coated plates are very important to any water ionizer design. What happens in a water ionizer is the hard minerals in the water want to stick to the plates in the alkaline side of the water cell. Continuous cleaning is the best design for a water ionizer, because it keeps any hard minerals off the electrodes. Platinum is necessary for efficient electrolysis. It catalyzes it [speeds it up]. If the plates are continuously cleaned, the platinum can then touch the water and do its job of catalyzing [speeding up and making more thorough] electrolysis.Mesh plate designs on a water ionizer is a newer, more efficient design, but beware of any water ionizer which does not have continuous cleaning [in which case the mesh would be a bad idea, because there would be more grooves for hard minerals to clog up.]

How Well will the Water Ionizer Clean the Water?

Overall Filtration Quality: With all of the junk in our US water today it is an important feature that every water ionizer offers pretty good to great filtration. Chlorine, for instance, is filtered out by every water ionizer I sell. Some water ionizers, however, offer better filtration than the others. A good example is the Jupiter Biostone Plus filter, which has over 9 layers of filtration with sophisticated [and expensive I might add] filter media which gets out tricky things, such as chloramine [a compound of chlorine plus amonia...very hard to filter out], fluoride [which reports are coming in droves of the health risks of consuming fluoride] and pharmaceuticals [

As you can see this chart is very comprehensive and thorough. Keep in mind that we, at Alkaline Water Plus, are REALLY testing each water ionizer. We are not a fake water ionizer review site. Each point on the new water ionizer comparison chart is something important for a water ionizer customer to know, especially the above four points, which I think are the qualities most important to look for in a water ionizer.

After over 16 years of drinking alkaline ionized water, I can say with conviction that the very best thing I could give to myself or a loved one is a WATER IONIZER! Give yourself and your family the gift of health this year!

Ionized water has to, obviously, go through the stomach after we drink it.  With hydrochloric acid, or gastric juices in the stomach, my question with this series of experiments was “Which Ionizer will produce more stable, drinkable, thoroughly ionized water?”

You do not drink the highest levels of ionized water. The best pH levels for drinking are between 9.0 and 9.5. The reason for this is that the digestive system will best accept and benefit from ionized water in this narrow range. In the following experiments I took the water ionizers which produce the best, most efficiently ionized water at pH level 9.5 and simulated what would happen to that water in the process of passing through the stomach and entering the upper intestines [where a pH most desirable for this section of intestine is 8.8].

The way I conducted this experiment, was to measure the pH and ORP at level 3 (for the Enagic it is called “Kangen water 9.5”) of each of these water ionizers.  Then I added drops of vinegar to the ionized water [to simulate the water passing through the stomach and lightly coming into contact with stomach acid]. My goal with the experiment was to see which ionizer could come as close to the 8.8 pH value that is ideal for the upper intestines while at the same time maintaining a high negative ORP [anti-oxidant] value.

On the first chart below you can see I started out with one drop of vinegar added.  After that I added two more drops (see second chart).

All the videos are located below with the charts along with my analysis and conclusions following.

Adding One Drop of Apple Cider Vinegar

Adding Two More Drops of Apple Cider Vinegar

Analysis and Conclusions

Enagic Water Ionizer: The Enagic water ionizer was tricky to work with because it wanted to produce stronger levels of pH than I felt was good for a person to consume.  However, whenever I produced lower, more acceptable drinking levels of pH with the Enagic water ionizer, it was also accompanied by what I felt was too low of a strength of water ionization (ie., the ORP was too weak).  When using those weak settings, the results of adding drops of vinegar were very poor.  The only time I could get decent results with the Enagic water ionizer was when I used a slower flow rate.  The problem with this was the pH came out so high that in my opinion the ionized water was too high for drinking.

Tyent Water Ionizer: The Tyent water ionizer had excellent results when I added one drop of apple cider vinegar.  However, by the time it had been sitting there for a few minutes, the ORP was showing signs of instability.  When I added two more drops of vinegar, it went to a very low ORP.

Athena Water Ionizer: The Athena water ionizer had excellent results.  It retained its excellent ORP even after adding the two extra drops of vinegar.

It’s difficult to draw conclusions from one test, but I have to say that I am once again very pleased with the result of the Athena water ionizer.  I will definitely be doing more testing in the future though as I really was expecting the Enagic and the Tyent water ionizers to do better in this water ionizer comparison test.

After over 16 years of drinking alkaline ionized water, I can say with conviction that the very best thing I could give to myself or a loved one is a WATER IONIZER! Give yourself and your family the gift of health this year!

The Athena water ionizer and the Tyent Turbo water ionizer are both very high quality alkaline water ionizers.  I have tested these two great water ionizers against each other many, many times. Just this past week I did some more extensive water ionizer comparison testing, and you can see the videos and brief summary of each water ionizer’s performance verses the other below.  When it comes to choosing the best water ionizer for you and your family, who best to do the looking and deciding than YOU?

In any case, both of these water ionizers are far superior in performance than many other water ionizers on the market.  I say this based on personal tests and evaluations of water ionizers for many years.

Here are some of the general features of each water ionizer:

Tyent Water Ionizer vs. Athena Water Ionizer

Tyent Water Ionizers:

7070T Water Ionizer – The 7070 Turbo is the water ionizer we are testing in the video, below.  It is a 7 plate water ionizer.

9090T Water Ionizer – The 9090 Tyent Turbo water ionizer is the next step up from the 7070T water ionizer.  The main difference is that it is a 9 plate water ionizer.  It will get slightly better readings because of that. You can see an earlier blog post comparing the two main Tyent water ionizers [7070 vs 9090] here: http://alkalinewaterplus.info/blog/2010/12/18/is-the-new-nine-plate-water-ionizer-an-improvement-or-not/ .

9000T Water Ionizer – This is the under-sink version of the 9090T.  It will get very similar results as the 9090T.

Jupiter Water Ionizers:

Athena Water Ionizer – The Athena Water Ionizer is the top of the line water ionizer at the Jupiter company.  It has continuous cleaning (it cleans continuously, behind the scenes, with no wait time).  It also has mesh plates so it allows for more thoroughly ionized water (hence the great ORP ratings.) The Delphi water ionizer is essentially the same machine as the Athena water ionizer, save one filter port, but it is the under-sink version.

Melody/Isis Water Ionizer – The Melody/Isis water ionizer is the next step down from the Athena.  The cleaning system is very good, but it’s not continuous.  It reverses polarity [cleaning the plates thoroughly] with every use though, and this is done behind the scenes…so there is no wait time for the consumer.  It also gets pretty good ORP readings.  They aren’t as good as the Athena [because the plates are solid], but the pH and ORP are pretty impressive with the Melody/Isis water ionizer. Here’s an article that will demonstrate the quality that is typical of the Melody/Isis water ionizer: http://alkalinewaterplus.info/blog/2010/11/04/kyk-vs-jupiter-melody-water-ionizers

Venus Water Ionizer – This is the next step down.  It is a good machine and will get the range of pH.  However, the ORP readings are not as great as the Melody or Athena.

Below, I have included several videos and charts comparing the Athena Water Ionizer versus the Tyent 7070T Water Ionizer.  In all videos, I use a moderate flow rate for both water ionizers, between 1.5 and 2 liters per minute.  I try to eliminate the flow rate variable and keep both water ionizers at the same flow rate.

Test Number One

Test Number Two

In this video, I slowed down the flow rate for both water ionizers.  I also assured that the flow rate for both the Athena Water Ionizer and the Tyent Water Ionizer were the same before starting the testing.

Conclusion

The Athena Water Ionizer gets a really great ORP at all pH levels, even the lower level alkaline pHs!  The Tyent Water Ionizer doesn’t start to get good ORP until level three. The Tyent water ionizer gets a lower acid pH [2.3 vs. the Athena's 2.6 in St. Louis water]. The lower the acid water, the better the acidic water is for use as a germicidal cleaner [killing germs], although any pH lower than 4 will kill germs.

rH

There is another method to evaluate these test results.  We could measure the rH (relative hydrogen).  The formula is:

(ORP + 200)/30 + (2 x pH)

The closer the number is to zero the better.  The scale goes from 0 to 48.  If it is below 28 it is antioxidizing and if it is above 28 it is oxidizing.  The Athena water ionizer beats the Tyent water ionizer on this, but the Tyent water ionizer is still exceptional.

Most people associate aching bones, arthritis, memory loss, among many other ailments, with aging.  These are all common things in the elderly.  But who really knows why these things occur as we get older?

Water in Aging

At infancy we are made up of about 75-80% water.  As we age, that percentage decreases to 60-65% for men and 50-60% for women.

Your brain is made up of 85% water, yet many autopsies show shriveled, dehydrated brains in older people.

Even your bones contain water, 10-15% water, and this needs to remain this way for good bone condition.

One theory of aging is that the body’s percentage of water has a lot to do with the overall health of the body. If your water content decreases in any particular body parts [such as skin, muscles, and organs], then the health of these specific parts of your body would decrease. You’d look and feel less youthful and more aged.

A phenomenon of aging is that as people get older they tend to drink less. Whatever this is due to, it is not good. You can easily get into a habit of drinking too little. Maybe you don’t like the taste of water, because your taste buds have been spoiled to tastier drinks. Or, maybe you are too busy or preoccupied to think of drinking. Whatever the reason, it is a dangerous habit to allow, as you can get dehydrated. Dehydration sounds so harmless, but if you want to avoid diseases and other ailments as you get older and you want to continue to look nice well into your senior years, you should increase your water-drinking habits to about 2 1/2 – 3 liters or so. It’s not too hard to do, just pay attention to how much you are drinking, and drink a little bit more each day.

Recommended Drinking Quantity of Water

You will find many different recommendations for how much water you should drink in one day.  Per the Mayo Clinic, they have concluded that the “Adequate Intake” of liquid (not just specifically water) is 3 liters for men and 2.2 liters for women. Dr. Robert Young says to drink 3 to 4 liters depending on your body weight [i.e., 1/2 oz. of water per pound of body weight.] I, personally, drink about a gallon of ionized water per day.

In my experience, the more ionized water I drink the better I feel! I, personally, drink about a gallon or so of ionized water every day.

Why Choose Alkaline Ionized Water?

With ionized water you’ll be drinking well-filtered water, rich with antioxidants.

Do not count all fluids toward your daily intake of water.  Anything with caffeine in it, coffee, tea, etc, will act as a diuretic.  This means that it will increase urination, and you’ll end up dehydrating your body rather than hydrating it.  Also, there’s the matter of chemicals. Lots of popular drinks today contain harmful chemicals. The more toxins you put into your body the more water you need to flush the toxins out of your body. Toxins put a strain on your liver, kidneys, and other organs. In the end, drinking and eating junk food contributes to overall poor health due to dehydration and toxin build-up in the cells.

Drinking ionized water, which is virtually free of toxins, full of anti-oxidants, and contains an abundance of pH buffers to allow more toxins to be flushed out of your body per unit of water than any other drink, is the best thing you can do for the health of all of your cells. Also, alkaline ionized water is micro-clustered and more quickly and easily absorbed by the body than any other drink.

After over 16 years of drinking alkaline ionized water, I can say with conviction that the very best thing I could give to myself or a loved one is a WATER IONIZER! Give yourself and your family the gift of health this year!

I used to be a lot like Dr. Mercola. [who is a world-famous nutritional-healing advocate and who also owns a huge online vitamin & natural-remedy store].

Dr. Mercola is an avid natural-healing advocate, and I am too.

Ever since my first child was born in 1974, I have been enthusiastically seeking out answers to “how to stay healthy, keep my children healthy, and never get sick”. In my first 20 years of being a mother I read every book I could, related to nutrition and natural healing. I visited health food stores regularly. I bought various nutritional products, herbs, etc. both for preventative measures and remedies.  And whenever I got sick [or one of my children] I got a remedy or two out to fix it. Even so, we did [all of us] end up at the doctor each 2 or more times a year for various things [ear aches, infections, sore throats, etc.] . When my first two children went through puberty, they got the usual acne. I think we were pretty typical of a normal, mostly-healthy, family.

I didn’t have a PHD, MD or ND behind my name, but I had a masters in education, 20 years of parental experience, and I was a self-taught expert in natural remedies by the time my first child was 20.

The reason I was like Dr. Mercola is that he is always reading and learning about the latest natural-healing remedies out there. But why did using a water ionizer cause me to change?

It’s interesting to me how much my point of view has changed since the time my first two children were young.

What happened to change my point of view?… a water ionizer.

Around the time my 3^rd child was 9, my 4^th child was 6 and my 5^th child was 3, I was introduced to the concept of ionized water and the pH of our bodies . This was a pivotal point in my life as an expert in Nutrition and a mother. I bought my first water ionizer in 1996 and that single action [although the water ionizer was an older, weaker model than most any water ionizer you can buy today] changed our lives.

What did a water ionizer do that all of the other books and remedies in the entire health-food store not do?

A water ionizer helped my family and I to change the water in our bodies, so as to provide our cells with more suitable water for detoxifying and maintaining the perfect pH balance that our bodies and cells need to be truly healthy.

All the rest of the “preventions” and “cures” became obsolete and un-needed after just months of drinking alkaline ionized water.

I didn’t just buy a water ionizer, by the way. I learned all about body pH, water, water pH, and water ionization uses AND I applied what I learned by actually drinking the ionized water [and having my children drink it.]

I also observed. I saw that ionized water was making a difference in our family’s health. So, I did more. If I saw any hint of illness [a sniffle] I would have whoever it was drink more ionized water as the antidote for whatever germs may be trying to invade. Whether it was my own self or one of my children …or even my husband, I would utter my famous words “here, drink more water”. It was almost a family joke that I was so insistent on all of us drinking the ionized water so much.

What happened was miraculous though. All of the runny noses, ear aches, head aches, sore throats, acid reflux, and other little defects in our health started to disappear. Even allergies that I was sure were genetic and unavoidable disappeared. As each of my three younger children reached puberty they were virtually free of the acne problems experienced by my older two children.

Before water ionizers I was a self-taught nutritional expert trying to stay abreast of all the latest nutritional answers, preventions and cures, but now I have found a single, simple answer that has changed everything and put all the rest of the “answers” into perspective.

Unless your body has an excellent and continual supply of just exactly the right water to support what your body needs, all the other remedies in the entire world will still not be good enough. Water is KEY to your body’s good and stable health. Ionized water is PERFECT for your body. Drinking ionized water helps your body to be perfect.

With all my other knowledge about vitamins and nutrition in general, I would be remiss to not mention that of course you need to eat well [well-balanced and properly-combined meals] and DO take your vitamins. However, with ionized water I predict you will find that the answer to most ailments is “drink more water”.

After over 16 years of drinking alkaline ionized water, I can say with conviction that the very best thing I could give to myself or a loved one is a WATER IONIZER! Give yourself and your family the gift of health this year!

I had a phone call the other day asking about a filter that gets potassium out of water.  I wanted to explain in detail here why you should filter this out if you have a water ionizer, and the best way to do so.

Salt and Potassium based Water Softeners

The two most popular water softeners that are used today use either salt or potassium to exchange with the “hard” mineral, calcium.

Salt and potassium should not be constantly run through a water ionizer as these are both conductive minerals.  It will wear on the plates and cause the ionizer to not be as effective.

If your water has excess salt or potassium in it, you need to filter it out (if you want to protect your water ionizer from excess wear and tear).

Reverse Osmosis

Reverse osmosis is the best way to filter out salt or potassium.  Both salt and potassium dissolve very thoroughly in water. This is why you must use Reverse Osmosis to get it out.

If you think about it, sea water has salt in it.  If it was easy to get salt out of water, we wouldn’t have a water conservation problem on our planet.

RO [reverse osmosis] will filter out most other toxins as well!  The only thing to keep in mind when using reverse osmosis with a water ionizer is that you must then remineralize the water.  In order for electrolysis to work, you must have minerals in the water.

Another option you would have if you didn’t want to get an RO [reverse osmosis unit] would be to install a direct water line to hook the water ionizer up to.  In this event, you would want to protect against hard water as the problem with excess calcium in water is that it will tend to scale the insides of the water ionizer. We do have devices to reduce/control scale, so give us a call if you’re interested in that.

Ionizer Set-Up

The good thing is that once you have your ionizer set up properly, you won’t need to do much to keep it working at it’s best!

After over 16 years of drinking alkaline ionized water, I can say with conviction that the very best thing I could give to myself or a loved one is a WATER IONIZER! Give yourself and your family the gift of health this year!

I had a concerned customer ask me why there were so many air bubbles in their alkaline ionized water. Here’s the answer.

Tiny pockets of air bubbles are created during the process of ionization. These come from separating the acidic water from the alkaline and the micro-clustering that takes place. The amount of air bubbles depends in part on the source water [i.e., on the amount of dissolved oxygen in the source water] and in part on the degree, strength, and efficiency of ionization.  These little pockets of air are harmless and will usually go away after several minutes of letting the water sit.

So these bubbles are just an indication that your water ionizer is working.

This is an article which will both show you the role of water ionizers in good digestion and its relation to each organ in the GI [gastro-intestinal] tract, or digestive system. [don’t worry, it’s written in lay-men’s terms].

What is the Gastro-Intestinal Tract?

The GI tract can be considered to be all of the organs involved with eating and elimination. The GI tract releases hormones to help signal the release of the proper enzymes.

PH is a key factor in knowing which hormones to activate.

Food needs enzymes to assist in proper digestion, and without enzymes functioning properly digestion would be sluggish, causing many health problems to arise. Hormones associated with enzymes can sense the pH in each organ and if the pH is right for the enzyme that hormone controls, the enzymes are signaled to become active and do their job properly.

Stomach

The stomach is the only organ in the entire digestive system that requires a low acid pH level in order to do its job, and it produces it all by itself by injecting HCL, or hydrochloric acid, into the stomach as food arrives.

The stomach is an interesting and unique organ. When dormant you will find only a tiny bit of acid in it, but when digestion is stimulated gastric acid, containing mostly HCL, is produced on demand to handle the load. HCL’s pH is 1-1.5.

• Organisms in the food are likely to be killed by the low acid of the stomach juices. This makes it part of the body’s immune system.
• The acid itself doesn’t break down the food, but rather the low pH environment is conductive to the enzymes doing their job to break down of the protein walls.

Does Alkaline Ionized water upset the HCL balance in the stomach?

No. HCL is a strong acid, creating a low acid pH in the stomach during digestion, but unless you’re actively eating, there isn’t much of it [or much need for it] in the stomach. Water, by itself, does not trigger the production of HCL or digestion, so is allowed to pass through the stomach quickly and undigested. [see video] without upsetting the overall pH balance of the stomach.

Duodenum

The duodenum is the top portion of the small intestine, just below the stomach, and it is significant in the digestion process.  The duodenum injects bicarbonate and other buffering “juices” in order to raise the pH to its preferred level of 8.8, which is very alkaline.

The duodenum likes this high alkaline pH, because it  is more suitable for digesting fats [which come into the duodenum undigested]

Note: the best time to take your fat-soluble vitamins [A, D, E, Omega 3 fatty acids, etc.] is with a meal containing fat. This way the combination of food is not interfering with efficient digestion.

I did some testing of ionized water, trying to simulate the water passing through the stomach and into the duodenum. The following three videos and chart not only show this testing in full, but also give good insights into how digestion works in general and also how pH affects each major organ of the digestive system.

Adding 3 drops Apple Cider Vinegar to Ionized Water to Simulate the Ionized Water Passing Through the Stomach

Small Intestine

Maintaining an alkaline balance in the intestines can make a great contribution to a person’s colon health as well as their overall health an well-being.

The small intestine is significant in the absorption of nutrients from the food. The mucosa of the small intestine is about 8.5 pH. All the way along the intestines, more enzymes are added and more food is absorbed until, by the time the chyme, digested food, reaches the large intestine, 95% of the nutrients should have been absorbed. The nutrients go into the blood, then straight to the liver for filtering before entering the regular circulatory system. Ionized water is very beneficial in the small intestine for many reasons.

• It assists the small intestines to maintain a healthy 8.5 pH so as to inhibit the growth of parasites, funguses, and other undesirable microorganisms. Parasites going unchecked are often a large contributor to mal-nourishment and weight-management problems.
• Proper pH stimulates proper enzymes to digest whatever food hasn’t been broken down thoroughly enough by now.

Ionized water, being absorbed at this point in the GI tract, is healthy for you in many ways.

The anti-oxidants will go to the liver and help to detoxify and anti-oxidize it [then will go to the rest of the cells in the body to do the same]. Also, the micro-clustered water will enable better absorption of water into the body and so keep the body hydrated better. This will put less demand on the large intestine for water, and so will help stools be softer, bigger, and move faster through the colon.

The Large Intestine

In the large intestine the main job is the absorption of water into the body, production of B and K vitamins, absorption of a few more nutrients, and then quickly eliminating the waste.

A good, healthy, alkaline pH level in the large intestine helps to inhibit the growth of bad-bacteria and maintain the proper balance of good bacteria [intestinal flora].

Note: Insufficient water or oil in the diet or insufficient intestinal flora “good bacteria” can cause the stool to be hard, sticky and trapped in the walls of the large intestine.

If we don’t eliminate properly, we reabsorb toxins into our bodies from our bowels. Alkaline ionized water helps to promote good elimination through the colon. See the video, below,showing several short clips of colonoscopies done by Dr. Shinya. Dr. Shinya is the inventor of the colonoscopy and has learned many good tips for keeping a healthy GI tract. Also, see his advice below the video.

Dr Hiromi Shinya — Colon therapy

Dr. Shinya’s Diet Advice

In addition to drinking plenty of good water, Dr. Shinya advises you develop eating habits that are good for your colon and GI Tract health. He also advocates daily exercise, rest/sleep, and being stress-free. The following is the “Good Eating Habits” advice from Dr. Shinya’s  website.

Good Eating Habits: 90% fruits and vegetables and 10% protein. Dr. Shinya’s points for good eating are:

• Eat unpurified grains or cereals.
• Eat more vegetables.
• More seafood, less meat.
• Eat raw foods.
• Do not eat oxidized foods. [i.e., over-cooked, hydrogenated, or spoiled]
• Eat fermented foods.
• Avoid milk and milk products.
• Take Vitamins and Minerals
• Be disciplined with the food you eat.

How else can you take causative action to improve digestion?

• Drink ionized water: Drinking alkaline ionized water will help establish and maintain a healthy, necessarily slightly-alkaline, balance of pH in the GI tract as described above.
• Combine foods properly. Try to not mix sugary foods, refined carbohydrates or refined starches with meals.
• Avoid junk food. This just gives you empty calories, taxes your digestive system, toxifies the liver and other organs of digestion, slows down digestion, and can contribute to mal-nourishment and obesity.
• Eat unsaturated fats [cold-pressed oils for salads and olive oil for cooking] rather than trans fats and saturated fats. Good fats help to supply you with quick energy and make you feel satisfied, so as to have fewer cravings for sweets or food in general. Your body needs fatty acids, but only the good ones. Bad fats contribute to hunger, over-eating, mal-nutrition, heart disease, and many other ailments.
• Don’t overeat. This triggers insulin, which interferes with your body’s sugar/energy balance and so makes you feel more tired [and hungry] later.
• Stress can lead to poor digestion and an overly acidic body. Therefore, it is suggested that you adopt a healthy, stress-free, lifestyle. Stress-free doesn’t imply “action-free” or a lethargic existence. Quite the contrary. The more productive and purposeful a person is, often the less stress they usually experience.
• Move your body frequently and periodically exert yourself, so as to keep your muscles toned, use up your calories, improve circulation and improve digestion.
• Lose weight if you need to. Overweight people demand more calories, get hungrier, and so tend to eat more. The more you eat, the more difficult it is for your digestive system to function properly. Statistically, people who consume fewer calories live longer and healthier lives.

After over 16 years of drinking alkaline ionized water, I can say with conviction that the very best thing I could give to myself or a loved one is a WATER IONIZER! Give yourself and your family the gift of health this year!

Are there any long-term concerns about drinking ionized water?

In Japan and Korea, about 15% or so of the population has been drinking ionized water for over 30 years…some even longer. Many hospitals in both Japan and Korea use water ionizers for both its alkalizing/anti-oxidizing properties for drinking and for its acid properties in healing skin sores.

Innumerable tests have been done on mice, rats, chickens, etc., and in almost every instance there were good results noted and no negative results have ever been able to be replicated. There have been no substantiated incidents of negative long-term effects of people drinking ionized water.

I have personally known people who are cancer-free today primarily because of ionized water. My family and extended family are so much healthier because of ionized water! Over the years I have had hundreds of customers who either have written to me or spoken with me on the phone and told me their stories of how water ionizers have help them and their families so much.

Water ionizers have a bona fide and rightful, life-long place in any family’s healthy home.

As a long-time educator [I was a teacher/principal for over 24 years], I am very interested in educating people [and giving people the straight scoop] about water ionizers. I will not allow myself to sell a product that could do harm or isn’t tested thoroughly enough for safety. I also personally, have been drinking ionized water for over 16 years, along with my family and extended family. I can safely say that I am healthier today, at age 59, than when I started drinking it at age 43! The reason I am selling water ionizers today is because a water ionizer is the one, single, best, health product I have ever purchased. So after retiring from teaching I decided to pursue this passion.

Are there negative reports about ionized water?

There are going to be people who will, no matter what it is that you are advocating, will advocate against it. In every case, when I’ve come across a report I have given it my full attention. One chemist was warning people that ionized water could upset the balance in your colon. It seemed like a silly warning, especially in light of all the colonoscopy work that Dr. Shinya has done to show the great things ionized water does for all of his thousands of patients’ colons [Dr. Shinya is the inventor of the colonoscopy]. But even though the claim seemed silly, I still checked it out on myself.

Just a few months ago my husband and I had comprehensive stool analyses [which showed a perfect supply of good bacteria, zero bad bacteria, zero parasites, and good results in every other way.]

Not only do we feel healthier than ever, but the blood, stool and urine tests my husband and I have done [after drinking ionized water for over 16 years] are showing this as well!

Another health-reporter was worrying people about long-term use [he said short-term use for detoxing was good but not long term...however didn’t specify his reasons]. He hinted at the stomach/colon, and possibly “leaky-gut”, but was elusive [I think he just wanted to sell his newly imported water filters]. So, just last month I had a urinalysis [along with test for leaky-gut] and the comprehensive report showed that all levels for everything tested were perfect. In addition my heart rate and blood pressure were so good the nurse made a comment about how envious she was.

It’s interesting that none of the “authorities” that I’ve run across who have advocated against water ionization have ever actually tried it.

Their reports are obviously flawed in such a way as to show they haven’t much knowledge about water ionizers either. Many health authorities or scientists who HAVE fully checked out water ionizers have concurred with what I know from experience, that the health benefits possible are quite bona fide and even amazing. Here’s a question/answer report of an interview with Ray Kurzweil [inventor/scientist] who did in fact check out water ionizers top to bottom and highly advocates them. http://alkalinewaterplus.info/blog/uploaded/Ray_Kurzweil_Q_A.pdf

By the way, the chemist, mentioned above, is an interesting character. He seems to hate everything natural. But he definitely has an agenda, and a great article exposing his agenda can be found here: http://www.canlyme.com/quackwatch.html .

How do vitamins fit in with water ionizers?

Another benefit: Since I’ve been drinking ionized water, my intake of vitamins and minerals have lowered. I take a normal amount of vitamins today, but took a greater than normal amount 20 years ago…because I wasn’t as healthy then as I am today. Last year my husband and I had our blood fully analyzed and, just as we knew it would, every level of dozens of things the test covered was perfect.

Medical Uses for Water Ionizers:

There is one particular water ionizer that claims to be the only one suitable for medical uses [such as if a person has cancer or some other condition they are worried about]. This is bogus and absolutely, completely, 100% untrue. The actual fact of the matter is that it is a sales pitch and it is in my opinion bordering on fraud.

Water ionizers, in general, have been approved for manufacturing in 1965 by the Japanese Ministry of Health and Welfare as medical equipment to produce medical substances.

In Japan, Korea, and Taiwan, water ionizers are considered as medical devices, but also as water treatment devices. In the U.S., water ionizers are not considered medical devices, and it could be risky for a company to market them as such. Enagic gets away with their marketing, because mostly these claims are being made person to person or in closed group settings. However it is a risky thing to do, and could put the company out of business or at least cause some damage in the way of fines. Several years ago, when I started hearing the claims by Enagic dealers, I decided to find out for myself. I was perfectly willing to switch companies if the Enagic was better. I just wanted to know. I cannot tell you how many times I have tested and retested [and retested and retested] their water ionizer against the other two top water ionizers, the Athena and Tyent water ionizers, as well as other water ionizers, and other than an occasional higher pH [for cleaning water…too high to drink] and a higher flow-rate [which in my opinion is not a good thing…because the filtration suffers when the flow-rate is too fast] the Athena is better. The Tyent is probably tied…but the warranty is better with the Tyent and so is the price.

For long-term use, when is it best to consume ionized water?

It is best to consume ionized water away from mealtimes if your meal contains meat. Some also suggest to not drink it while taking medications [vitamins are fine though]. A good rule of thumb is for 20 min. before and 20 min. after meals or taking medications, drink little or no alkaline water. If you like to drink water with meals containing meat, then I suggest you squeeze a slice of lemon into your ionized water and you’ll change the pH of it to acidic or just drink filtered water. The reason for this is that during the initial phases of digestion your stomach needs to maintain a more acidic environment [in particular if your meal contains meat].

How do You Know You’re Getting the Best Quality of Water Ionizer?

One way is to compare the water ionizer’s ORP per Unit of PH: Not all ionizers will give a good ORP at lower pH levels, such as at pH settings of 8 or 8.5. That’s why I’ve done extensive testing of both the pH and ORP of all of the leading water ionizers. I have also tested ionizers in a variety of different locations, so I could get an idea of how source water affects the ORP at the various pH levels.

Why Would People Need the Lower PH Settings of 8 or 8.5?

People whose diets are mostly fruits and vegetables are probably more naturally alkaline and may need to set their ionizers to give them pH levels of about 8 or 8.5. Also, depending on the pH level of your incoming water, some water comes in at already a 8 – 9 pH. In this case, the ionizing of water is still very beneficial, because ORP [oxidation reduction potential, or antioxidant value of the water] delivers over 50% of the health benefits from water ionization.

People whose diets are fairly typical of US, with several trips to a fast food restaurant per week and/or more than 40% of food intake [visually] is from meat and grains will probably be more acidic and need higher pH settings for their ionized water, such as a pH of 9 or 10.

Which are the Best Water Ionizers?

It probably depends a little on your source water [where you live], but I’ll give you a very brief summary of what I’ve found to be the best water ionizers.

Medium-Hardness Water Areas: The best ionizer I’ve found for giving high ORP per unit of pH in medium-hardness water areas is the Athena water Ionizer [and also its under-sink equivalent, the Delphi]. The Tyent is also good, as well as the Enagic, Miracle Max or VS70, in that order, although these perform better at the higher [too high to drink] pH settings and do not get as good ORP per unit of pH in the lower pH settings. The Enagic is not good at getting lower PH levels when the source water is too alkaline to begin with. You can do it, by increasing the flow-rate and reducing the power-setting, but then the ORP is not good.

Soft Water Areas: The ionizer needs to work harder in soft water areas to bring the pH level up. Some water ionizers are more suited to this. The best ionizer I’ve found for giving high pH and ORP in extreme soft water areas [such as BC, Canada, or Washington state] is the Chanson Miracle Max or VS 70 water ionizers. The Athena or Delphi water ionizers are good if you set the pH-Boosting setting up to the highest level, and add a mineral filter to one of the filter ports. In this case you will get fantastic ORP per unit of pH in soft water areas, better than the Miracle Max, however you may not be able to get much higher than an alkaline value of 9.5 or 10 pH or much lower than an acidic potential of 4 or 5 pH [for cleaning purposes]. The Tyent and Enagic water ionizers are great too, probably equal to the Athena for drinking pH-levels, if you add a Remineralizer. In all cases, if you have extremely soft water [either because you have reverse osmosis or if you live in an extreme soft-water area, I recommend using a Remineralizer for the best results. With the addition of a Remineralizer or two, you can boost your incoming hardness to any desired amount.

Very Hard Water Areas: In very hard water areas, such as Arizona or Vegas, or in the case of very hard well-water, it is difficult to use any water ionizer to its full potential unless you do something to fix your source water first. For instance, you may be able to get decent drinking water, but may not be able to get any acid water lower than a pH of 5 or 6. The best results would come from reducing your source water to medium-hardness levels before ionizing it. I have had very good reports from people who have used the Reverse-Osmosis-Remineralizer-System to treat their water prior to ionization. The only down-side to this is the amount of water you are likely to be able to use at any given moment is about 1 ½ gallons. After that, you will need to wait about a half hour before you can pour more. The second-best fix for water that is extremely hard is the Spartan Ionizer Shield. I have several very good reports from happy customers about this product. The Spartan Ionizer Shield pre-filtration system doesn’t reduce your water flow or quantity, and it cuts the hardness in about half. If you use a whole-house softener [which uses sodium or potassium] the Spartan Ionizer Shield wouldn’t be the right product, though. The only effective filtration for sodium or potasium is reverse osmosis.

After over 16 years of drinking alkaline ionized water, I can say with conviction that the very best thing I could give to myself or a loved one is a WATER IONIZER! Give yourself and your family the gift of health this year!
