Water Benefits

A Focus On The Benefits Of Alkaline Kangen Water®

Kangen Water® provides numerous benefits which can enhance health and lifestyle. We will look at some of the major advantages of enjoying the fresh tasting water provided by the Kangen Water Machine by Enagic. Through the Kangen Water system, ordinary tap water is filtered, transformed, and restructered through an electrolyzed process into a delicious healthful solution. Kangen Water hydrates, alkalizes, has a high negative ORP, and cleanses. But what does all this mean to you and your state of health? Let us first start by looking through the lens, not into a crystal ball, but into a fish bowl.

The Fish Bowl Metaphor: Why Changing Your Water Really Can Change Your Life

To show this point we borrow from Dr. Dave Carpenter’s favorite water metaphor, comparing our environment to that of a fish bowl universe. In this metaphor, the fish represent our cells. When fish food is added daily it goes into the water. Then the fish consume the food and put the waste back into the water, now creating a more toxic environment. Two changes to the water take place: evaporation and pollution in the water. The fish get sick because there is no possibility for detoxification. Now what can we do? Should the fish receive medicine to aid their ailing condition? If not, what is the solution? We can:

Change The Water!

Just as with the fish, our cells need adequate clean water in order to facilitate the detoxification process. The liver-colon, kidney-bladder, skin-sweat, lung-breath, and lymphatic systems all require water and if it’s not abundantly supplied, wastes build up in the (interstitial) fluid surrounding the cells and detox is slow or curtailed. As a result toxins may be detoured to arteries, joints, or fatty tissue, etc. The Mayo Clinic indicates that the average adult loses 10 cups of water daily from breathing, perspiring and eliminating waste. It is vital to our health to provide sufficient quantities of water, and is our way of changing the water in our metaphorical fish bowl. Kangen Water Machines provide the perfect water to change to.

Hydration: Micro-Clustered For Superior Absorption

First, let’s look at the molecular structure of the ionized Kangen Water® for drinking which is produced by the Kangen Water Machine by Enagic.

This pertains to the way the molecules are organized. When water is placed in an electrical field through ionization, it assumes a crystal-like, hexagonal (six sided) geometry that can change the properties of the water. Micro-clustered or hexagonal water means greater capacity and effectiveness for hydrating the cells and carrying energy throughout the body.

The cluster size of the alkaline water is reduced by about one half to two thirds of the cluster size of tap water. Therefore, the process of ionization reduces the water molecular clusters. This crystalline structure facillitates the transportation of nutrients, assists the removal of waste products and supports the process of metabolism.

Kangen Water®, then, is more easily absorbed and therefore, deeply hydrates the cells better than unstructured, non-ionized water. When drinking Kangen Water, one can increase volume without feeling bloated or uncomfortable.

Antioxidant / Negative ORP: Neutralizes Free Radicals

Oxidation is a natural occurrence, as when we see a cut apple turning brown or a pipe rusting. It is called aging when it occurs in our body. Kangen Water® has a very high negative ORP (Oxidation Reduction Potential) ORP measures the strength of the oxidizing or reducing power of a solution. A negative ORP measurement means a surplus of electrons. This results in Kangen Water® neutralizing harmful “Free Radicals.” In contrast, most bottled waters, soft drinks and other beverages have a positive ORP which means that they increase the oxidation in the body rather than reducing it.

Natural Cleansing

Through our regular lifestyle, from the beverages we drink and the foods we eat, etc. there occurs a build up of acid waste. It is important to clean out that acid waste before it manifests itself as disease in the body. Kangen Water® in sufficient supply can provide a natural way to eliminate the impurities that build up in the system. Water supports the cleansing and elimination functions of the body. Water hydrates the blood, lymph and digestive fluids so that toxins can move through the detoxification process. The enzyme process that breaks down toxic compounds is also assisted greatly by water. Of course water is primary in the intestines and final stages of elimination.

Achieve pH Balance: An Alkaline Body

Scientists discovered that running water past magnetically charged plates made it possible to separate water into two streams, alkaline and acidic. Drinking water (pH 8.5, 9.0, and 9.5) from the Kangen Water Machine, will help balance the body’s alkalinity over time. An Alkaline body is considered a healthier body. We started in life with a slightly alkaline state.

Acid Water: Personal Hygiene

In Asia, “acid water” is commonly called “Beauty Water.” This acid water is very efficient when used in personal hygiene, and for cleaning the body externally. For example, the astringent characteristics of acid water can be effectively used for toning and firming the skin. This water is also used as a toner after shaving. Many use this acidic water, with a pH of 4.o to 6.0, instead of conditioner after shampooing. In the winter, bathing in acidic water can help preserve the moisture of the skin.

Cleaning Toxic-free

Industrial, multi-purpose cleaning machines, such as floor cleaning machines, are currently being manufactured by several different companies, which utilize strong acidic water as the only cleaning agent.

In like manner, there are some swimming pool systems which are moving away from the harsh chemicals to utilizing ionized, acidic water for cleaning pools. Therefore, more commercial enterprises are seeking safer solutions and toxic-free cleaning.

A Green Environment

Acidic water is non-polluting. That is why strong acidic water is being utilized by many different kinds of institutions, ranging from hospitals all the way to custodial services.

Furthermore, when acidic water is introduced into the environment, it goes back to its original, resting pH status.

Acidic water is safe and risk free for the environment because it is free of pollutants such as phosphates, etc. Therefore, one can be confident when using the acidic water, and avoiding the dangerous chemicals, that one is participating in a safe stewardship of the environment.

Kangen Water® is produced by water ionizers which are exclusively manufactured by Enagic, Inc. a 36 year old Japanese company. Kangen Water® has an alkaline pH, is micro-clustered, and has a high negative ORP, or oxidation-reduction potential.

The Kangen Water Machines produce five different types of water, which includes three pH levels of alkaline water plus neutral water for drinking.

The Acid Water, Strong Acid Water, and Strong Kangen water (not for drinking) all serve various other functions which are friendly to the environment.
