About a month ago I did a series of water ionizer comparison testing, between the Jupiter Athena water ionizer, Jupiter Melody water ionizer, Tyent Turbo water ionizer, Enagic Kangen Water [SD 501] and the Chanson Miracle water ionizer. I’m summarizing those results and also expanding my comparisons of these water ionizers, so you can see and compare every aspect of these water ionizers all in one spot.

One of the number one things I hear from customers is how confused they are when it comes to figuring out which water ionizer to buy.

This article will hopefully shed some light of truth on the subject of water ionizer comparisons. While it is just one more series of water ionizer comparison testing, it is pretty comprehensive in that every level of each water ionizer was tested…not just the strongest level.

I have constructed a master chart to help demonstrate the ORP results for each water ionizer in ordered pH intervals. I was hoping that looking at it this way, a pattern might emerge.

Why is ORP so important?

ORP is the antioxidant value of the ionized water. This is where your ionized water provides you with large quantities of free-radical scavengers to bond with free radicals in your blood and cells and theoretically prevent all kinds of damage to your cells. Note: It is only in the first few hours after pouring ionized water that you get these highest levels of ORP. I have literally seen spider veins disappear from my legs when I drank ionized water with the highest levels of ORP. Since I can only comfortably drink up to about a  10.5 pH, I, personally, want the level of pH I drink at to have the most ORP it can.

.

Water Ionizers Compared: ORP Results vs. PH Levels

pH	Jupiter Athena	Jupiter Melody	Genesis Platinum & KYK	Tyent Turbo	Enagic SD501	Chanson Miracle
9.6	+3	-330	-91	+32
9.8		-745	-170
10	-90	-745		-737	-70
10.2					-155	-69
10.4	-230 -710	-766 -783		-755
10.6			-778		-600 -780	-171
10.8	-780	-803		-800
11	-817				-809 -800 -805	-797

I can honestly say that these water ionizers are all very close! If there is an overall winner to see…

I’d say it might be the Jupiter Melody!

I am surprised at the strength of the Jupiter Melody water ionizer! The Melody is a 5-plate water ionizer competing head on amongst 7-plate &/or more expensive water ionizers and it might even have emerged as an overall winner!

The reason I’m surprised by the strong results for the Jupiter Melody water ionizer testing is that usually the Jupiter Athena’s results are better than the Melody. Also usually the Tyent Turbo and the Enagic are better than the Jupiter Melody as well. But in this series of tests, it’s not clear who the winner is, and it sure is clear that the Melody looks pretty darn good. It’s right up there, close to equal in some levels – better in others. And that’s against the traditional winners [the Athena, Tyent and Enagic]. You can’t take one set of tests as proof, but it does fit in somewhere as part of an overall picture.

These are clearly all good water ionizers, and that is probably all that these results prove.

There are other things to consider when purchasing a water ionizer, and sometimes [just like in buying a car] those extra features may be what makes or breaks the deal for you. For the features I think are the most important, I’ve listed the ionizers in order of best to worst [left to right], below. I’ve also put the features in order of how important I think they are. Keep in mind, just like in buying a car, the opinions of “best” and “most important” will naturally vary.

.

After over 18 years of drinking alkaline ionized water, I can say with conviction that the very best present I could give to myself or a loved one is a WATER IONIZER!  Give yourself the gift of health this year! And…

Have a great holiday season!

Today I compared two middle-priced water ionizers, the KYK water ionizer vs Jupiter Melody water ionizer. The KYK  water ionizer is programmable, so I set it to the highest possible settings. Even so, the KYK water ionizer still did not compare as well as the Jupiter Melody water ionizer, but they were close.

You can see the videos, followed by the charts and commentaries here. The first two videos are when I compared the two water ionizers prior to customizing the programmable settings. The results were poor for the KYK, so I reprogrammed it to be set at the highest possible settings for each level. Then the last two videos show the reprogramming followed by the 2nd set of tests.

KYK at default settings

KYK at highest settings

Here are my comments about today’s water ionizer comparisons:

• I’m ignoring the first set of results, because the programming of the KYK Generation II was not at the highest settings. But with the 2nd set of tests, the Melody still did better.
• The Melody’s results for levels 1 and 2 were far better than the KYK and they had almost perfect ionized water results.
• At Level 3 the KYK did a little better than the Melody at level 3, because the pH was at a more drinkable level. However, if you compared the Level 3 of the KYK with Level 2 of the Melody, you can see the ORP is almost identical with the Melody’s pH even more drinkable. 
• At Level 4 the difference of 1/10th of a pH point is neglegible, and both water ionizes’ high alkaline results were plenty high enough to emulsify oils.
• The Melody had a slightly better low acidic pH, but both water ionizers’ low acid pH results were plenty low enough to kill germs.

This was part 5 of a series of water ionizer comparison tests that I have called Water Ionizer Face-Off. So far I have compared…

• #1 The Tyent vs. the Enagic …got a near tie between the two water ionizers but Tyent won. http://alkalinewaterplus.info/blog/2010/10/22/water-ionizer-competition-1/ 
• #2 The Melody vs the Enagic …got a near tie [Enagic only a little better] between the two water ionizers. http://alkalinewaterplus.info/blog/2010/10/26/enagic-kangen-vs-jupiter-melody-water-ionizers/
• #3 The Tyent Turbo vs the Chanson Miracle …Tyent was the winner.  http://alkalinewaterplus.info/blog/2010/10/29/tyent-turbo-vs-chanson-miracle-water-ionizers/
• #4 The Enagic Kangen Water Ionizer [SD501] vs the Jupiter Athena …got a near tie [Athena a bit better]… http://alkalinewaterplus.info/blog/2010/11/02/enagic-kangen-water-vs-jupiter-athena-water-ionizers/
• #5 KYK Generation II vs. Jupiter Melody Water Ionizers …The Jupiter Melody was the winner [today's post]

For now this is the last round of Alkaline Water Plus’s Water Ionizer Face-Off Competitions. I have gathered a lot of good information so far and that will have to do until I continue these Face-Off Competitions at some point after the holidays [or sooner if there seems to be a real need].

My overall rankings for the water ionizers compared based on the results in this 5-part Water Ionizer Face-Off Competition are:

Category #1: Best Water Ionizers [Jupiter Athena Water Ionizer, Tyent Turbo Water Ionizer, and Enagic LeveLuk SD 501 Kangen Water Ionizer]

Category #2: Better Water Ionizer [Jupiter Melody Water Ionizer]

Category #3: Good Water Ionizers [Chanson Miracle Water Ionizer and KYK Generation II Water Ionizer]

Water Ionizer News

Here is a just-posted video interview with Dr. Robert Young, author of pH Miracle books and a 30-year water ionizer researcher/guro, with Chanson Water Ionizer USA owner, Ronnie Ruiz.

Dr. Young used to only endorse the Jupiter water ionizers, mainly the Jupiter Melody. This is because he tested all of the water ionizers and felt that the Jupiter Melody gave you the best “water ionization for your buck”. He liked the way most of the Jupiter models were made [from the Melody water ionizer on up], and he liked their intenal cleaning systems [which are very important].

Dr. Young conducts research on water ionizers and their uses & effectiveness, so that he can help his clients. He does a lot of work with live blood analysis and he puts his clients on alkaline diets. Since he is considered by many to be a top water ionizer guru, his endorsement of a water ionizer is significant.

Now, since Dr. Young has seen and tested the Chanson Miracle water ionizer, he is impressed with this water ionizer’s ability to ionize water well, get an extremely high pH [of about 12 with his high-mineral source water], get an extremely low pH [of under 2 with his high-mineral source water], get an extremely high/low ORP [above +1000/below -1000], he is convinced that the Chanson Miracle water ionizer is a MIRACLE WATER IONIZER!

Back in November I did my own testing of the Chanson water ionizers and I was also happily impressed with them. Here is the blog post and video series of that testing: http://alkalinewaterplus.info/blog/2009/11/17/chanson-water-ionizers-vs-the-melody-water-ionizer/

A week ago Ronnie went to visit the Chanson factory in Taiwan. Here’s the video:

What really impressed Ronnie at the factory was they test every single feature of every single chanson water ionizer before it leaves the factory! They even test the pH and ORP to make sure that each water is performing at the exact level that it should. Correction Note: Ronnie states in this video that all other, or most or many water ionizer companies put calcium sulphite in their water filters. Actually the only major or popular [in the US] water ionizer filters that I know of with calcium sulphite [which is added as a preservative] in them are: Life water ionizers, Bion-tech, and Enagic water ionizers.

Here’s another video with Ronnie in Taiwan. He’s exploring the many stores in Taiwan where Chanson water ionizers [and other water ionizers] are sold. You can see that Chanson is a main water ionizer leader in Taiwan [where water ionizers are as common as toasters -- it seems]. Fifty percent of people in Japan and 40% of people in Korea have their own water ionizers.

I just love my new Athena Water Ionizer and my new IonLife Reverse-Osmosis-with-Remineralizer Set up!

For years I was really against reverse osmosis, because it took all the minerals out of the water and left it as “dead water”, as the Japanese refer to it. I’ve been drinking ionized water for about 17 years and have loved every minute of it. Buying water ionizer in my opinion is the healthiest thing a person can do!

I changed my mind about RO when IonLife came out with their new Reverse-Osmosis-with-Remineralizer!

The thing that sold me was the remineralizer! The Remineralizer cartridge puts back organic coral calcium plus 70+ organic trace minerals. Actually I would pay for this advantage alone. Organic plant source minerals are much healthier for your body and don’t cause the problems that inorganic [rock-based] minerals do. Another thing that sold me was the price! I’ve usually heard of RO costing up around $2000.00 or so, but this whole RO system with the 6 gallon storage tank & remineralizer, especially designed to give enough pressure and the right minerals for water ionization with organic plant-source minerals custom-designed to be perfect for a water ionizer….only costs $379.00! 

I was a little leary of hooking up an RO. It seemed so complicated. But now in hindsight, it was pretty easy to do! Here’s a quick look at what the RO system entails:

After drinking ionized water from this new RO system with remineralizer for the past few weeks, I can say I really love it! It feels good to my body! I love the fact that the sodium and fluoride are removed so well! I’m very happy with my decision to do this! I’ve done some comparison testing between the RO as a source water and the St. Louis tap water and the RO source water seems to be ionizing the water as well as the tap water. Unfortunately, my ORP meter is on the blink and I’m waiting for my new one to come in. I’ll be doing some comparison videos soon.

Here’s another thing I’m really happy I decided to do…

Buy my new Athena Water Ionizer!

This was a fantastic decision! The Melody water ionizer is truly everything I’ve ever said it was: well-made, tests great for pH and ORP, great filtration, and it is the best water ionizer you can get for the price! However, the Athena is just a bit better. The bit better is mostly in the area of ORP. The Athena water ionizer gets a better ORP per unit of pH than all of the other water ionizers for drinking the healthiest water possible at whatever level of pH you’re able to drink it at.

Most people will work their way up to level 3 of the alkaline water [equivalent to 9.5 pH]. At this level the Melody [using my source water in St. Louis] gives an ORP of about -450 or so, while the Athena will give about -550 with the same source water. You only really need an ORP of -250 to -300 to provide your body with plenty of antioxidants, so the extra ORP is nice to have, but not necessary. So which one should you buy: an Athena or a Melody? I usually think if the person is young [under 40] you can get away with a a lot more than when you’re 55 or so. So my advice is simple. If you can’t afford the Athena, then get the Melody! But if you’re over 55, then try to find a way to afford the Athena. This is advice given very lightly, and with no intention to sway you in any direction. I’m telling you this, because I get asked by so many people. Actually, I love all the water ionizers, and they all give great pH and ORP [well beyond what they need to] and they’re all great priced! So the real advice is to get a water ionizer [if you don't already have one] TODAY!Wishing You Water Wellness!

This week I have the pleasure and opportunity to compare the KYK Genesis 7-Plate Water Ionizer and the Jupiter Melody Water Ionizer! I’ll be videoing & blogging about it as I go.

This is the first of a series of videos about the KYK Genesis water ionizer. Here’s the first set of 2 videos, entitled: The KYK Genesis 7-Plate and the Jupiter Melody Water Ionizers Compared at Levels 1, 2, and 3. It is a 2-part video.

Table Shows Results of Water Ionizer Comparisons at Level 1, 2, & 3 for the Genesis Water ionizer and the Melody Water Ionizer.

Here’s another video comparing the KYK Genesis with the Melody water ionizers at Level 3.

Here’s a Charts to go with the above video…

Water Ionizer Demo: Melody & Tyent Ionizing Water for Over 12 Minutes

I heard that some Enagic dealers were claiming that every other water ionizer [except Enagic of course] overheats when you run the water ionizer for 10 minutes or longer. This video series debunks that. The first two parts demonstrate continuous flow for over 10 minutes for the Tyent 7070 water ionizer and the Jupiter Melody water ionizer. There is an intentional overlapping of certain parts so you can see that this flow was in fact continuous. As you can see, I’m testing the ionized water [both alkaline and acidic] throughout the videos. This is to ensure I’ve got correct comparisons between the Melody and Tyent water ionizers throughout

Therefore, there are two things happening in the videos. The first is that both water ionizers are being tested to see if they can run continuously for 10+ minutes and continue to be ionizing the water with a high pH and ORP throughout. They both can do this…so this debunks the Enagic statements that no other water ionizer [other than Enagic] can do this I want to make a strong point here that I DO NOT suggest to continuously flow water from your water ionizer without any breaks. However if there is a need to do this once in a while, this video series shows you that you can.

If you hear other fabricated stories from Enagic dealers like this one, let me know and I’ll be happy to test it. You can find my # and email on my website: http://www.alkalinewaterplus.com

The other thing I’m testing with these videos is I’m doing a continual comparison of the Tyent and Melody throughout the entire 12-min. period [also the part 3 video does a final comparison about a minute after]. Usually when you see comparisons, you see one reading for each water ionizer. You don’t get the benefit of continual observation over an extended time. So I’m going to say this testing should be about the most valid comparison of two water ionizers for pH, ORP and rH of any testing you’ve ever seen.

Here’s the videos:

I hope this demonstration sets a new standard in water ionizer comparison testing!

How do the Jupiter Melody water ionizer and the Tyent 7070 water ionizer compare?

Close to the same!!! …as I knew they would! This is one more example of why I say “find the water ionizer and company you like and buy one!” These water ionizer manufacturers know how to manufacture great water ionizers!

This is so much better than what I had for my first 15 1/2 years of drinking ionized water…and I thought that water ionizer was a miracle worker!

Some things I think are good things to consider, other than the pH, ORP and rH are: the integrity of the company and manufacturer, how much you trust them & know about them, the internal cleaning systems…how well the water ionizer cleans the plates, the warranty, the BBB ratings, the certifications, how long the company has been around, how the water ionizer looks to you, and of course the price! Hope this helps!

Tyent has just released a new TURBO feature that can be purchased as an upgrade for their Tyent MMP7070 water ionizer. So what is this new TURBO feature all about?

The Tyent MMP7070 regular water ionizer has 7 large plates and normally has an adjustable wattage of 110w to 240w to accomodate for the different water ionization levels selected. The new Turbo feature raises the wattage of the water ionizer to 280w. Think of the brightness of a 280 watt light bulb vs. a 240 watt.

So what are the results? How much better is the water ionizer’s pH/ORP when using the Turbo feature?

I’ve posted this water ionizer comparison video (comparing the Melody water ionizer to the Tyent water ionizer) to show you, but the bottom line is that the Turbo feature only slightly raised the pH and ORP of the water. The actual rH* (relative Hydrogen: which is the scientific analysis of the HEALTHINESS OF THE WATER based on a formula explained at the bottom) was worse. The Turbo feature, in my opinion may wear out the water ionizer prematurely also, and seems completely unnecessary. The level 3 pH and ORP of the Tyent MMP7070 were great! Why mess with a good thing? If it doesn’t get a more significant increase than this, then I say it’s not worth the extra money.

I am so happy I was able to try out this new Tyent MMP7070 Turbo water ionizer, and it’s pretty good! At level 3 I got a 10.91 pH and -802 ORP at level 3. The Turbo feature boosted the pH to 11.05 and the ORP to -812. Please note: additional testing will be done in about a week. 

The Melody did great too! I’ve put a little comparison chart below to show the difference between the Melody and Tyent. The Melody is a great, reliable water ionizer that stands up well against all the water ionizers that have 7 large plates. The Melody water ionizer also cleans itself better than the Tyent, and I think that one feature will make the largest difference to consumers in the long run.

My vote: Consider the Tyent — as it’s a good water ionizer…but also consider the Melody; they’re both great, so don’t worry too much about every little difference in pH & ORP if they’re that close – just start drinking ionized water as soon as you can and as often as you can.

Research shows that the consumption of alkaline ionized water reverses the acidity in the body tissues and organs which leads to disease and as such leads to reverse-aging. It is a well-known fact that diseased organs are acidic. Therefore, it follows that to reverse the acidity of the organs and tissues in the body could reverse the course of diseases.

 Dr. Otto Warberg (Nobel Prize Winner, 1932) stated that “Cancer is caused by the lack of oxygen and the fermentation of sugars.” This is due to a low pH acidic environment.

Why does ionized water help the overall health of both animals and humans? There are several reasons:

• Alkaline ionized water is alkaline (obviously) and therefore enters more alkalinity into the body cells, tissues and organs. This allows the buffering effect to take place. This further allows toxins (acids) to leave the cells, tissues, and organs and be flushed out of the body. Thus, alkaline ionized water produces in the body a healthy state of slightly alkaline pH, and research shows that fungus, cancer and other disease pathogens do not thrive in an alkaline state, they do well in an acidic state.
• Alkaline ionized water, being water (and not having calories), does not require digestion, and thus bypasses the digestive system and goes straight to the cells, tissues and organs needing hydration. An example of this: If a person who is constipated is directed to drink 16 to 32 ounces of alkaline ionized water and wait about 20 minutes, they will see a dramatic effect in hydrating the tissues in the rectum which will in turn allow the elimination process to occur. 
• Alkaline Ionized water is reduced in cluster size to about half the size of what comes out of your tap. This contributes to the cells, tissues and organs ability to absorb that water and thus achieve the hydration needed to reverse the diseased condition.
• Alkaline ionized water is run through a sophisticated filter which removes the harmful chemicals and substances from the water, but allows the good minerals (such as calcium and magnesium) to pass through.
• Alkaline ionized water produced by a water ionizer which is certified (such as the Jupiter Melody, Enagic SD501 [Kangen Water], Tyent, Life, Athena, Delphi, KYK, or Chansen) will reduce the ORP of the water and thus your water will have an anti-oxidant effect in the body (in such a way as orange juice does).
• Alkaline ionized water has been reported as having a more pleasant taste and contributing to a refreshed feeling after drinking. Thus this water is more likely to be enjoyed by consumers.
• Alkaline ionized water is shown to be far superior to any other water, especially tap, reverse osmosis, or bottled waters. The alkaline ionized water is exclusively reported as having the qualities listed here, while other waters do not.
