Bottled Water vs. Ionized Water | There is no Comparison!

In this article, I’ll explain why ionized water is a far better choice than bottled water.

Let’s start with ORP.

ORP stands for oxidation reduction potential: which is another way of saying anti-oxidant potential. Here is a chart that shows the ORP of  58 different kinds [brands or sources] of water. Of all the bottled waters the range of ORP is about +350 to +600 on the average. That means you are getting one heck of a lot of free radicals through your water.  Note: tap and well water sources are also in this high range of ORP.  If you look on the chart, at the “Jupiter Science Water” row, you’ll see that the ORP of ionized water using a water ionizer from Jupiter Science is up to -850 [and this will vary according to the source water used]. That’s an incredible difference! With a negative ORP of even -300 it is considered a medical grade of ORP. With this kind of negative ORP you can really antioxidize and get rid of the free radicals in your body!

Now let’s take a look at pH.

PH stands for potential Hydrogen. It is another way of saying how acidic or alkaline a substance is. Our bodies need a slightly alkaline pH [7.365 pH] for health, however this is very challenging for our bodies to do with our modern diets. Without the proper buffers for the alkalinity our bodies need, our bodies have no choice but to rob our joints and bones of calcium to buffer the poisonous acid wastes produced by our cells.

If you look at the pH of the bottled water in the above chart, you’ll see that there’s a wide range of pH in these waters. The lesser expensive water, such as Aquafina, is acidic [5.96 pH], and while some of the spring waters are alkaline, watch out! Because many of the spring waters are gotten from valley springs [which tend to be acidic]. If you need to drink bottled water, look at the lable and try to get the mountain spring water. Make sure the word “mountain” is in the description [otherwise surely it is NOT mountain spring water]. To really provide enough buffers for most modern day diets, I think people should drink water at a pH higher than 9 if possible. The only water on the chart that has a pH higher than 9 is the Jupiter water ionizer’s ionized water. And, that can get up to 11 pH!

Sometimes, it’s true, you do need to drink bottled water.

So here’s what I would do if I were going out of the country, and didn’t trust the water [or otherwise HAD to drink bottled water: I'd bring my Waterman Portable Water Ionizer [little 1-cup water ionizer that doesn't use electricity] and pour mountain spring water into it. I think that would be the best and safest water for traveling into places where I didn’t trust the water. The Waterman Pitcher is so inexpensive and lasts for 800L [you can also refill the cartridge for another 800L for even cheaper], so I think this would be something that anyone could do!

Finally, last but not least, the amount of waste produced by all those bottles isn’t good for the environment.

Even if you recycle, there is a lot of energy waste and pollution caused by so much plastic. The statistics are: a lot of those bottles do not get recycled. Food for some green thought.

I just tested the new Jupiter Science Venus water ionizer with my own two hands (and pH/ORP meter) and it produces a high quality ionized water — fantastically great ionized water produced (almost as good as the Melody water ionizer)! You can see my testing here:

Some of the other great features of this new (Venus) water ionizer are:

• Flow-control valve: Customizes the flow-rate of water through the water ionizer.
• Voltage regulator capabilities: Changes voltage for better water ionization depending on whether you use hard or soft water
• The price of the Venus water ionizer is $300.00 less than the Melody water ionizer

Some of the things I like better about my Melody water ionizer are:

• The self-cleaning design of the Melody water ionizer makes the water ionizer plate-cleaning within the water-cell automatic –after you turn off the water ionizer, rather than interrupting the water ionization process
• The polarity of the water ionization plates shifts after each use, so you never get calcium build-up [which can be the biggest trouble down the line with any water ionizer investment].
• The Melody water ionizer isn’t a new design and it’s been tried-and-true for many years. As far as water ionizers go, this is not a light statement to make.
• I guess I think my Melody water ionizer is prettier than the Venus water ionizer. And it seems very sturdy [like a good work-horse water ionizer should be]. Of course everyone will have their own opinion on this one. My daughter, for instance, thinks the Venus water ionizer is the most attractive water ionizer of all.
• The Melody is going to be no-hassle eventually when I install it under my sink, because the self-cleaning happens after I’m done pouring my ionized water…I won’t have to listen for a warning sound telling me the water ionizer has gone into acid-water-mode. [Which is what you'd basically have to do if you decided to install your Venus water ionizer under your sink.
• Can you tell I still like my Melody Water Ionizer the best?

Here's a video I did 2 months ago where I tested the flow rates of the Melody water ionizer. This is a good sample video to show how great the ionized water quality consistently is in my Melody water ionizer.

I also did complete testing of the Enagic LeveLuk SD501 water ionizer at about the same time, and you can see in these 2 videos that the Enagic water ionizer does not produce as good ionized water quality as the Melody water ionizer. I'd say according to my tests today, that the Enagic water ionizer [at a price of $3,800.00] produces the equivalent level of water ionization quality as the new Venus water ionizer though. This is not to put down the ionized water produced by the Enagic water ionizer! I love the quality of water the Enagic water ionizer produces! And I think it’s a pretty machine too. I also love the water quality produced by the Venus water ionizer and the Melody water ionizer. Here are the Enagic water ionizer videos:

If you’re looking for more comparisons between the Melody and the Enagic water ionizers, see this: http://www.health-e-water.com/water-ionizers-compared-3.html  It’s a water ionizer comparison chart accompanied by 4 pop-up videos that really go into depth on the Melody, Enagic, and Athena water ionizers. It shows how you have to look past just the pH and the ORP to judge the quality of a water ionizer. You have to do all that, but then take it one step further and calculate the rH (relative Hydrogen).

Also, If you’re looking for objective and scientific testing done by a laboratory of the Melody, Enagic, Tyent, Athena water ionizers, here’s the video to see:

How do all the water ionizers compare? They are all great! People need to learn about water ionization for their health, because ionized water is top dog in my book [of what to do to keep your body healthy]. I think the everyday-person will be happy to know that you don’t have to spend thousands of dollars to get this healthy, superior quality, ionized water into your body — cleansing your cells — every day of your life!

Also, with the payment plan I offer on my website, more and more people will be able to have daily access to nice, fresh, high pH and ORP, alkaline ionized water!
