Water

Not all water is created equal

Kangen Water, the water technology making its way across the globe.. otherwise known as electrolyzed reduced water, is created using innovative ionization water technology through an on-the-counter kitchen appliance. Electrically enhancing your tap water, by producing ionized alkalized and acidic waters through a process called electrolysis.

These waters can be used for various purposes, including drinking, cooking, beauty, and cleaning. These ionizer machines offer seven different PH levels of ionized water that can be used in over 60+ ways. The drinking water ranges from 8.5-9.5 pH, depending on the type of water you select on the machine’s touch screen. Although there are many therapeutic benefits of drinking ionized, the three key components are the high levels of active molecular hydrogen in the water, the minerals it contains and the optimal hydration it offers.

Our bodies are made up of on average 70% water… The water you drink Matters.

It may surprise you to know that 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated.
‍
Kangen Water is rich in Molecular Hydrogen…. But what is that? Molecular Hydrogen, or H², is the smallest molecule on earth. A gas with unique antioxidant effects, it is made of two protons and two electrons. Hydrogen is so tiny; a molecule can effortlessly dissipate throughout the cells in our body. Unlike regular tap water, this water is rich in antioxidants, which are capable of fighting various inflammatory conditions. Its unique properties are of use to every organ in the human body.
‍Active hydrogen molecules neutralize active oxygen (aka free radicals). To be specific, molecular hydrogen targets hydroxyl radicals which are the most harmful to us. Free radicals in our body cause aging and largely contribute to diseases - such as Cancer, Arthritis, Crohn’s, and more. The more free radicals we neutralize, the less likely we will become ill.

‍Over 1,000 scientific publications show that molecular hydrogen is therapeutic in 170 different human and animal diseases.

    • H2 is known as molecular hydrogen.

    • H2 is the most powerful & smallest antioxidant on the planet, it’s small enough to cross cellular membranes and is even small enough to cross the blood brain barrier making it capable to travel anywhere in our bodies.

    • Scientific studies have shown that H2 neutralises free radicals, suppressing oxidative stress (which is the cause of ageing & disease).

    • This specific antioxidant can protect against future harm and repair existing damage. It can even signal gene expression in our DNA, which is extremely beneficial for our bodies.

    • Molecular hydrogen has been shown to improve cellular hydration, cognitive health, cardiovascular health, liver and kidney health, digestive health, can improve energy and endurance, and sleep.

    • Alkalised water (that’s made alkaline through electricity, not chemicals like store bought alkaline water) helps balance the body’s pH, which tends to be acidic because of our high acid food diet, stress and exposure to environmental toxins.

    • Drinking alkalised water helps to offset acidity in the body, which is vital because many illnesses cannot live in alkaline environments.

    • A Kangen water machine breaks up groups of water molecules to create smaller clusters of water molecules, which allows them to better penetrate the cell wall. (Think of throwing golfballs through a chain link fence, VS, marbles being thrown through a chain link fence, if the fence was was the cell membrane, and the marbles are the water molecules, you will certainly have many more marbles enter the cell than golf balls due to their smaller size)

    • This significantly increases the rate of hydration at a cellular level which simply cannot be attained by drinking tap, bottled, or other kinds of filtered water with large water clusters.

    • We are 75% water. Without water we do not exist. Dehydration is the number one cause of many health conditions. When you are living in a dehydrated state, your body cannot detoxify and is constantly inflamed... and inflammation is the root of almost all disease.

    • Because Kangen water is hydrating on a CELLULAR level (cells are the building blocks of life), true hydration can help you with so many of your essential bodily processes such as circulation, absorption of vitamins and minerals, digestion, elimination, regulation of body temperature, creation of saliva and neurological health.

    • Did you know that chlorine was first used as a chemical bio-weapon in WW1 & WW2 as a choking agent? Today it is now used a toxic industrial chemical added to our municipal tap water supply to “clean” the water.

    • Chlorine is a chemical agent that negatively effects the eyes, skin and the ability to breath. It should be alarming that there’s a large ‘POISON’ sticker on the chlorine buckets you buy from the pool shop… yet, everyone drinking tap and bottled water, is in fact drinking chlorinated water. And you can taste it.

    • Kangen water machines remove 99.99% of chlorine, as well as bacteria, odour, lead, rust and other harmful contaminants.

    • Kangen water machines do not remove the many minerals that are lost in the process of purifying bottled water, reverse osmosis, or distilled. This is essential, as demineralised water, like the types mentioned, are hazardous to our health and lead to mineral depletion. We need these minerals in our water in order for our bodies to pass it.

Properties of Kangen Water

It doesn’t stop at drinking water, Kangen machines create 5 different types of waters to replace synthetic products in your home

2.5 pH

This water has disinfecting properties. Use Strong Acidic Water, also scientifically known as ‘hypochlorous acid a nontoxic, completely natural disinfectant, to sanitise kitchen utensils, countertops, and more to prevent cross-contamination. Usages: cleaning and disinfecting, hygiene, and commercial operation. Not for drinking.

4.0-6.0 pH Beauty Water

This slightly acidic water is recognised for its astringent effects. It's terrific to use for gentle cleaning and beauty care. Usage: face wash & toner to balance the pH of your skin, hair care, pet care, polishing, germinating plants, cleaning, and preserving frozen food. Not for drinking.

7.0 ph Clean Water

Free of chlorine, rust and cloudiness. Neutral water is delicious drinking water. Usage: preparing baby food, taking medication

8.5 -9.5 pH Drinking Water

This type of water is perfect for drinking and healthy cooking. This electrolytically-reduced, hydrogen-rich water works to deeply hydrate your body and provide you with antioxidants, which are optimal for good health. Usage: drinking, food preparation, coffee and tea, soups and stews, and watering plants.

11.5 pH Strong Alkaline Water

Strong Kangen Water preserves hygiene in your daily life due to its strong cleaning effect. It has dissolving and heat conducting benefits. Usage: food preparation, removing pesticides from produce, stain removal, and cleaning. Not for drinking.

WHAT ABOUT OTHER KINDS OF WATER?

  • DTap Water

    The US geological survey found pharmaceuticals in 80% of all the water they tested. Some of the most common contaminants in American water include chloroform, lead, and arsenic. This doesn’t include man-made chemicals and substances that are unregulated: pesticides, disinfectant byproducts, chemicals used in commerce, waterborne pathogens, pharmaceuticals, biological toxins, fluoride etc.

    Town tap water is heavily filled with all the contaminants mentioned above.

    Is often acidic & contains no beneficial antioxidants.

    Has a positive ORP (oxidation-reduction-potential) reading. Meaning it is highly oxidising for your body.escription text goes here

  • These waters are stripped of all the harmful contaminants in water but also all the benefits in water. Probably one of the worst types of water to drink because it takes away vital nutrients and minerals from our body to compensate for the lack of them in our water.

    Some people believe that the minerals in our food are enough but studies have shown that is not the case.

    “Cooking foods in distilled water pulls the minerals out of them and lowers their nutrient value”

    • “Those who supplement their distilled water intake with trace minerals are not as deficient but still not as adequately nourished in minerals as their non-distilled water drinking counterparts even after several years of mineral supplementation” - Naturopathic Doctor & Herbalist Bob McCauley.

    • It’s important to note that we don’t want to over-filter our water. 2004 World Health study; “Populations with hard water have up to 25% fewer deaths from heart disease than populations with soft water”

    • These purification systems waste tonnes of water that can't be used for anything. For each gallon of water produced, between 2-20 gallons of water are lost as wasted.

    • Health Risks From Drinking Demineralised Water Study

    • Full of microplastics & other chemicals leached from plastic.

    • Most bottled water comes from the tap or is reverse osmosis water.

    • Plastic pollution: 2.7 million tons of plastic are used to bottle water each year.

    • Tapping groundwater for bottled water has led to shortages in several places such as India.

    • If marketed as '"alkaline water" has harmful chemicals added to keep it at a higher pH, but has no benefits only endless risks.

    • The plastic bottled water you see in the store labeled “alkaline” water has chemical buffers & synthetic substances added into the water to raise the pH above 7. These substances can have detrimental effects on digestion & gut health. E.g. sodium bicarbonate (baking soda).-

    • Alkalised Kangen water does NOT neutralise acids in the body because it does not contain buffers.

    • Kangen Water is alkaline as a byproduct of being ionised. An electrical change, not a chemical change. This occurs in nature all the time.

    • You may ask, “how does it help with acid reflux?” Because acid reflux is caused by oxidative stress, drinking ERW (electrolysed reduced water - aka alkalised water) has been shown to improve the cellular redox state in the body and thus rapidly improve acid reflux. (Franceschelli et al 2018).

    • Not because it neutralises the acid, but because it helps rid the problem causing it.

    • Kangen Water will not mess with your stomach pH, in fact one of the very first reasons why ERW was implemented in hospitals in Japan was because of its powerful ability to improve digestive issues.

    • It is important to filter water, however, these basic filters do not add any active antioxidants or restructure the water.

    • These basic filtration systems are usually very cheap and often can break easily.

    • Positive ORP readings. (Oxidisding for the body to consume).

  • Fresh spring and rainwater can be full of contaminants through pollution. They are also more acidic than tap water.

    • Kangen water is alkalised, electron-rich, and molecular hydrogen-rich water, with a very negative ORP reading (anti-aging property).

    • Before electrolysis this water is filtered inside the machine, removing 99.99% of chlorine and other chemicals & pollutants, without stripping it of minerals & essential nutrients.

    • Normal tap water, H+ + OH-, goes through the process of electrolysis, gains and electron, and then restructures to water rich in H2.

    • What makes Kangen different than all other water? Molecular hydrogen, H2, a unique & powerful antioxidant.

    • There's over 1000 publications on molecular hydrogen suggesting that H2 has therapeutic potential for over 170 different human and animal diseases. Having water rich in H2 helps our cells hydrate more effectively because it is able to defuse straight into our cells. Meaning we can drink less water and feel more hydrated and protect our cells from oxidative damage.

    • H2 is small enough to also pass through the blood-brain barrier, delivering these benefits this vital part of our body.

    • There are no antioxidant properties in tap, reverse osmosis, distilled, bottled, brita, or berkey water. This infusion of hydrogen in your water can only be achieved through ionisation.

    • Owning a Kangen water machine saves me from ever having to buy a single-use plastic water bottle again, amongst many other beauty & cleaning products which are replaced by the different types of pH waters a Kangen machine creates.

Our Plastic Crisis & Sustainability

Globally, 1 MILLION BOTTLES of water are consumed EACH MINUTE.

Only 9% of plastic has ever been recycled in the past 65 years. Only 1 in 3 plastic water bottles can be recycled, and even if it is recycled, plastic can only be recycled once, after that it becomes landfill, polluting the earth and killing the ocean and marine life. that's 700,000 plastic water bottles going to our oceans or landfills EACH MINUTE. That's enough bottles to build a floating island - literally.

Why does 71% of the global population drink bottled water? Because tap water usually isn't the healthiest option

The production of plastic water bottles is a major drain on natural resources including fossil fuels and water. About 46,000 pieces of plastic trash can be found floating every square mile of the ocean. Plastic bottles are the 3rd most common pollutant found on beaches.

Plastic leaches harmful chemicals and damages ecosystems, these chemicals are endocrine disruptors and have been linked to cancer and reproductive issues. It’s estimated that more than 1,000,000 marine creatures are killed every year by plastic waste. Plastic bottles also take up to 1,000 years to decompose and contribute to the world’s growing waste crisis.

Clearly, it’s an undeniable FACT that plastic bottles are unsustainable and are harming wildlife, ecosystems, and humans. By investing in a Kangen water machine, you will NEVER have to purchase a single-use, toxic water bottle ever again. When I can fill up my reusable bottle with the best quality water and be responsible for my thirst whilst I am out of the house.. why would I put my dollar into a big corporate water bottled water company that doesn’t care for my health or the environment?

5 facts about bottled water you might not already know:

- making a plastic bottle uses TWICE as much water as what fits inside the bottle

- up to 64% of bottled water is really just tap water & is actually LESS regulated than city water

- bottled water companies routinely take water from drought ridden communities

- bottled water may sit on shelves for 6 MONTHS before it goes to the consumer

- hormone disrupting chemicals leach from plastic to water (affecting testosterone and estrogen)

WHY ENAGIC?

  • Kangen water machines are certified medical devices by Japan’s Ministry of Health, which is the hardest country in the world to get a device medically certified. Kangen machines are also the only medical-grade water ionisers on the market. Over 6,500 doctors have tested Enagic’s Kangen water machines in clinical applications with their patients. Kangen water machines are also used in hundreds of hospitals in Japan, such as; Kyowa Hospital, Kitari Institute Medical Center, Showa University Hospital, Meiseki Hospital, Nara College of Medicine Hospital, Iida Hospital, Tokyo Women’s College of Medicine Hospital, Hanabatake Hospital, and many many more hospitals and practitioners offices around the world.

  • Kangen water machines are certified Original Equipment Manufacturers or OEM, which means Enagic makes everything, from each individual water machine, to its cardboard packaging. Every single Kangen machine is manufactured in-house from start to finish by the same employee, right from the very beginning of the production phase, every part, assembly, testing, inspection, and final packaging are carried out in the Enagic factory.

    Key Features of Kangen Water Ioniser VS Competition Video

  • Not to be compared to any other water ioniser on the market, Kangen machines also create hypochlorous acid using a saline solution where other ionisers only make 2.5 acidic water. Used in farming for many years, the 2.5 pH hypochlorous acid is created in the machine using a saline solution & electrolysis.

    There are many uses of this water setting. This solution has even been used in hospitals for years for sanitation and wound care. As shown in this scientific lab test, Hypochlorous acid kills 99.999% of bacteria, mold, viruses and fungus. Hypochlorous acid kills HIV, staph, e-coli, fungal infections, and even MRSA. Hypochlorous acid is approved by the FDA, EPA, and USDA for use in food handling/processing and for chemical-free cleaning/sanitizing in the U.S.

    FACT - Hypochlorous acid is naturally produced by our white blood cells and is an essential part of our immune system. This process is called phagocytosis and is one of humans' most symbiotic actions – eliminating pathogens yet being inherently harmless, unlike most other disinfectants which are toxic.

    When it comes to gardening, agriculture & farming, Hypochlorous acid from your machine can also kill mites, thrips, aphids, fungus gnats, flies, slugs, mosquitoes, ants, fleas and spiders. The 2.5 Hypochlorous acid also kills powdery mildew and mold and doesn’t leave any chemical residue. You can spray the water throughout your entire vegetative and flowering phases without any damage to the plants.​​ It is a safe alternative to toxic chemicals for spraying crops.

    To summarise, the 2.5pH Hypochlorous Acid produced from Enagic’s Kangen Water machines offers the following benefits:

    Completely Non-Toxic and Organic

    Improves plants’ overall health and immunity

    Prevents Pests, Mold and Mildew

    Much less expensive than “organic” pesticides and fungicides

    Will not burn plants

    Fully covers the entire plant (can be used in full flower)
