A potential customer asked me, the other day, to evaluate the Nikken water system. She said it was a water ionizer. I proceeded to try to research it, but the data available to me seems very vague and from what I can gather it does the opposite of a water ionizer. I’m not sure about the stones and magnets involved, perhaps this has some water ionization effect, but the water gets whirled around so fast that I’m sure it’s adding lots of oxygen to the water. This looks like a bad idea to me. We breathe oxygen, and it is because of oxydation in our bodies by free radicals that we need antioxidants. With ionized water, what we’re trying to do is better hydrogenate our bodies…they’re already oxygenated enough! Ionized water provides us with an unlimited supply of low (negative) ORP water, which is fantastic for scavenging up all our free radicals. I just can’t think of why anyone would want to stir in all that oxygen into the water! My theory was that if you stir or whip oxygen into ionized water it will raise the ORP, rather than lower it (which is what we want to do to make it healthier for free radical scavenging). So I conducted this test where I test the pH and ORP of ionized water from my Melody Water Ionizer at level 3, then I blend the water with a portable high-speed mixer (simulating the water whirring around in a Nikken water system. Finally, I tested the water after blending to see if the pH and ORP changed, and I recorded my results on the chart below. Here’s the video.
