Ionized Water updated 5-20-2010

Note:
I am no longer a distributor for this company. The company has changed hands, new rules, and I didn't sell enough 
units to retain distributorship. The concept and all the information I have amassed here on ionized water still applies 
though, which is why I have left this section of my website up.  But you can buy a machine that does more now than 
just supply you with alkaline ionized water to drink. I am a BA,  Business Associate, for a company called Amega Global.
   
Amega Global uses zero point energy, a product of quantum physics,  and a system of energizing water with zero point 
energy that does wonders for your body and fluids in your body, including your blood. Go to my page at http://www.wandtheworld.com/?go=detailshere   Click on the "technology link" at the right on that site and be sure to 
check out the LIVE Blood Analysis before and after only 3 minutes of wanding.  If that does not blow your mind for what a difference only 3 minutes of wanding can do for you, then check your pulse! And wanding with the AmWand zeropoint energy tool,  is nothing compared to what drinking energized and alkalinized water will do for you.

At my site www.detailshere.com/amegaglobal.htm  go down to products and find the AmWater Actify machine which 
not only energizes the water with zero point energy you drink but also is an alkaline ionizer in the same machine that 
sets output pH at up to 11.0 also. Energized and alkaline ionized water is an incredible source of rebuilding and feeding  
and repairing your body on a cellular level. We're talking anti aging here. If you explore what the Amega Global zero point energy products do for you, and read the hundreds of testimonies from people using these products, you will want to go beyond just a alkalizing water machine. Go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fh1RiWvXELk to see what alkaline water  (which this video calls Kangen water) can do for your colon. The AmegaAmWater Actify machine goes way beyond just alkaline technology.

Old info but still applicable
I love this machine, everyone in our house likes it. In 9 weeks I have lost 15 pounds by drinking this water and using the K2 vibration machine and my high blood pressure readings are starting to come down. I am taking less medication to keep it under the 140/90 readings. I'm not to the no medication point yet, I am told it takes 6 months to get to that point.  
I won't be without one again, no matter where we are. These are not expensive and can literally turn your health around. Not only are some aches and pains disappearing, but we are losing weight with no other changes, are more energetic, attitudes seem to be improving, and my blood pressure is dropping.
Before spending $$$ to buy the machine, read everything on this website and then  go to http://www.ionizers.org/cgi-bin/redirect.cgi?goto=/&code=ball  and order two books; Reverse Aging by Sang Whang and The pH Miracle for Weight Loss by Robert Young in the Books/DVD section. You'll never have to diet again, especially when you find out the reasons we are overweight. You'll also want the Calcium Kit book and test strips found at http://www.advancedideals.org/015_book_information.html  
Measuring the pH of your saliva and urine is part of this process if you really want to make best use of the principals involved here. These are not expensive books. 

Ionized water is truly one of the greatest preventative health advances of our generation. Within 10 Years, they will be as common as the microwave is today. Ionized Water has a profoundly beneficial affect on everything it comes in contact with.  Drinking alkaline ionized wetter water rich in negatively charged hydroxyl ions (OH-) to combat positively charged free radicals in your body is one of the easiest ways to take  a megastep in preventative health. Spend some time with this site to understand the principles involved. Drinking ionized alkaline water can make huge differences in your life and well being.

Benefits  
The  benefits of drinking ionized water are endless: weightloss, lowering 
of high blood pressure, diabetes control, colon cleansing, remineralization of your bones, cholesterol control, relieving arthritis pain, eliminating allergies, and more. Watch the videos below; this is a huge story to tell.

What is alkaline Ionized Water?  
It's regular tap water or filtered water that is put through a machine that 
ionizes it into an alkaline component which contains beneficial negative 
hydroxyl ions and an acid component which contains positive hydronion 
ions (this component also has uses). Pure healthy, alkaline drinking water 
is rich in minerals, purged of impurities, and ionized through electrolysis to obtain active hydroxyl ions which are abundant in "extra" electrons. These extra electrons impart strong anti-oxidant properties to the drinking water. Ionized Water with its reduction potential of -250mV to -400 mV (millivolts) is beyond comparison due to its ability to scavenge active oxygen radicals. As each hydroxyl ion is accompanied by a mineral atom such as calcium, magnesium, sodium, and potassium ,which was found in the water entering the machine; you can remineralize your bones instead of continually removing minerals from them. Water treated by electrolysis to increase its oxidation reduction potential (ORP) is the best solution to the problem of providing a safe source of free electrons to block the oxidation of normal tissue by free radicals, clean out the accumulated acidic waste within your body, and to remineralize your skeletal structure.  And you make it yourself with a water ionizing machine.
   
Why do I need this?
We need this because our diet today is comprised of so many acid components that we are literally stockpiling acid waste within our bodies, we are unable to get rid of this acid waste, and this makes us fat and sick and we are being literally leached from the inside out. One example: One ten ounce can of coca cola (or other soft drink) at a pH of 2.5 requires 32 ten ounce glasses of pH 10 alkaline water to neutralize it. That one can of pop contains 1025th positive charges that have to be neutralized. That's a huge number. (If one positively charged hydronion ion were a silver dollar, that's the whole state of Texas covered ten feet deep in silver dollars). That can of soda is THAT damaging. Your blood maintains a pH range of 7.3 to 7.4. Outside of that you will die. Your body uses material from your cells and minerals from your bones to neutralize the acidity you input if you have no alkaline components to go along with it. It is why many people's bones look like sponges and are very brittle and easily broken instead of being comprised heavily of calcium. Drinking alkaline ionized water will clean your body of acidic waste and put the mineralization back into your bones, as each hydroxyl ion comes with a calcium, sodium, magnesium or potassium mineral attached.  

Technical explanations
An easily understood explanation of what ionizing water does is here. 
Understanding pH can be found  here
Why you might want to buy a water ionizer is discussed  here.  
For techno geeks a more detailed explanation of the process starts  here

Using your own tap water 
or bottled water
* you make your own alkaline ionized water using an ionizing water machine at home that utilizes electrolysis to change the water from health robbing to health giving by increasing it's oxygen reduction potential.  Think of it as mega anti-oxidants in a glass.

*Most bottled water is purified by the reverse osmosis method which strips everything from the water, including the minerals.  You will NOT get a negative ORP reading by running RO water through an alkaline water ionizer. You must first add some minerals to the water as each hydroxyl ion produced in the ionizer needs a mineral atom to attach to. The easiest way to do this is to run the RO water through a coral calcium remineralizer cartridge first. I have a slightly contaminated well source for our water here where we live in Mexico. I installed a Reverse Osmosis unit to clean it up. I use a coral calcium remineralizer cartridge to put the calcium atoms back in the water after it passes through the  RO unit but before it goes to the ionizer.  My negative ORP reading on water coming out of my Jupiter Orion Alphion ionizer is -375mV, which is a very good reading. This is all covered  here.
 

Healing is part of ministry
Luke 9:1-2   "Then he called his twelve disciples together, and 
gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases. And he sent them to preach the Kingdom of God, and to heal the sick."  Beyond evangelizing, healing is a part of Christian ministry, even indirectly, as in bringing people to the use of healing ionized water that can have so many positive benefits.  

What this website contains
I started out on this ionized water journey pursuing a company named Enagic for this technology which makes a model called the SD501, which is a very good machine. They use a term called "Kangen Water" for their ionized water. Kangen is a Japanese word best translated into English as "return to original", which means several things when used to describe water. First, it describes water returned to the state in which water was often found in nature before the earth became polluted. Second, it implies that it will help to return your body to its original condition when you were young - including all of the organs and skin.  Kangen water IS simply, alkaline ionized water.  Kangen is a trademark of Enagic Inc. of Japan, the maker of the machine you will see in the videos below, although, because of its cost, it is not the product line I chose to go with. Enagic is an MLM company and I discovered their unit is 2 1/2 to three times  overpriced because of the MLM payment structure. I found equivalent and even better performance elsewhere at IonLife for one third of the price and less.  But Enagic has excellent technical information and videos that explain just what ionized water does, regardless of the machine it is made in. So I have retained much of the  information I obtained on the Enagic unit.   I have considerable  data on the Enagic at $4000 comparing it to the Jupiter Orion or Aquarius at $1495 that will do the same job; and the Jupiter has some features that are even superior to the Enagic unit; like a .01 micron filter instead of a .1, self cleaning while being used feature,  and the use of plain rock salt to get the lowest pH when making acid water.  Go to here for that comparative data. And Jupiter has some models as low as $595 that work well too for those that can't afford the $1495 top of the line model.  But first you have to have an understanding of specifically what these machines do and why we so desperately need the water they produce to bring us back to health.  There is much technical information in this part of my website for you to develop that understanding and don't be afraid to ask me questions and go to my faq.  These machines have been sold in Japan and Korea since the 80's but are just now finding their way into homes in the US and Canada. Ionizing water, as a major health discovery,  is another huge snowball rolling downhill and we are just barely in the diaper stage of this phenomenon.

Why would I want to buy a water ionizer?
Ionized Water is a Powerful Antioxidant. Imagine having the ability to take normal tap water and turn it into an antioxidant with a NEGATIVE ORP (oxidation reduction potential or charge), which retards the aging process. Put simply, a high or rising ORP causes oxidation and therefore aging. Acid waste in our bodies is making us fat and creating health problems. The negative ORP of Ionized Water literally retards the aging process by counteracting this rising ORP. Ionized Water essentially renews us at a cellular level. This is as close as we can ever hope to get to a Fountain of Youth, as incredible as that may sound.

For instance, real fresh squeezed orange juice has a negative ORP of -250mV. Although we can only drink a few glasses of fresh orange juice in a day, we can drink as much Ionized Water as we wish in a day. Many people drink as much two gallons of Ionized Water per day.

Ionized Water's  Antioxidant property which also provides the body with lots of oxygen
The antioxidant quality of Ionized Water comes from the hydroxyl ions
(OH-) produced. These are oxygen molecules with an extra electron attached to them as are all antioxidants such as vitamins A, C and E. Hydroxyl ions scavenge  free radicals, which are unstable oxygen molecules that cause damage to us. Once the hydroxyl antioxidant and free radical have canceled each other, the result is that the body is provided with lots of oxygen and therefore lots of energy. Oxygen is one of the most exhausted nutrients in our body because of our diet and the Earth's oxygen-depleted environment today. Oxygen destroys cancer cells as well as bacteria and viruses invading the body. It carries away acid waste from body tissue. It is vital to human health, perhaps our most important nutrient. A glass of strong Ionized Water first thing in the morning naturally helps you to wake up.

To get the full power of Negatively Charged, Antioxidant, Oxygen-Rich Ionized Water, it must be consumed fresh and strong, right out of the machine. Slow the water flow down on the Technos Water Ionizer and the glass you fill will have thousands of tiny bubbles in it. Those are hydroxyl ions, which is the antioxidant and the reason for the Negative ORP. This is because the ORP is the most fragile aspect of Ionized Water lasting only a maximum of 18-24 hours.

Ionized Water is very Alkaline and helps balance the body's pH, which tends to be acidic because of our diet comprised of cooked foods, pasteurized or otherwise processed foods. Soft drinks are the most acid substance a person can put in their body. One ten ounce pop contains 10 to the 25th power acidic positively charged ions which have to be neutralized. This acidic condition creates an ideal environment in our body for disease to thrive. For example, accumulated acid waste in the joints encourages inflammation and arthritis. Because it is very Alkaline, Ionized Water dissolves accumulated acid waste and returns the body to a balance. Keeping ourselves alkaline is the first line of defense in fighting any disease.

 Ionized Water is up to six times more hydrating that conventional water. Water is one of the most important element in the body, which is over 80% water. Ionized Water is fundamentally different from conventional water. This is because the size and shape of the water molecule cluster has been reduced in size and changed in shape to hexagonal, which allows the water cluster to pass through our tissues more easily. One of the primary causes of disease is chronic cellular dehydration, a condition which leaves the body's cells in a perpetual state of weakness and defense. One of the major causes of chronic disease is not providing the body with sufficient water. We simply do not drink enough water (at least half our weight in ounces) to keep ourselves properly hydrated and therefore healthy.

Ionized Water is extremely detoxifying. This is also because of the reduced size and shape of the water molecule clusters. Once reduced, these water clusters pass through the body's tissue much easier and push out toxins and acid waste quite effectively. Water Ionizers have several levels of strength so people who are toxic can begin by drinking mild Ionized Water, slowly drinking it stronger as they acclimate to it.

Minerals that are ionized are more bio-aviailable, meaning that the body can absorb them much more efficiently and make use of them where they are needed throughout the body. Water soluble trace minerals of any kind can be added to your water source through the filter on the Water Ionizer. Minerals are some of the most important nutrients the body needs, yet mineral deficiency is common. Ionized Water is an efficient and effective way for the body to get its minerals.

Ionized Water improves the taste of food. Ionized Water hydrates food better, helps bring out its flavor, lowers acid levels of any food including coffee, tea & juice. It ionizes the minerals in the food which helps make them bio-available. Having Ionized Acid Water on hand is worth the price of a Water Ionizer

Ionized Acid Water is great for the skin. Applying Ionized Acid Water regularly works like an astringent to tighten the skin and remove wrinkles, however, there is NO chemical residue. It soothes and helps keep the skin clear of acne and other blemishes.

At its strongest level, Ionized Acid Water kills most bacteria on contact. It improves hair and skin conditions of any kind, including fungus, cuts, scraps, even serious wounds. It takes the itch out of mosquito bites, the sting out of other insect bites.

Ionized Acid Water has been used successfully in treating diabetic ulcers. This is a condition that develops in diabetics where a fester opens in the skin, usually in the legs or feet, which can result in amputation if not promptly treated. These ulcers can become very serious. However, soaking the ulcer in Ionized Acid Water has tremendous healing effects.

Ionized Acid Water promotes substantially healthier plant growth.

Just scroll down this page for the information and be sure to watch ALL the videos on the left side as you go - just click on the pics - what an eye opener! This device is in it's infancy and will be HUGE. I hate the word "ground floor" but that's where we are at with this. It has been marketed heavily in Japan since 1994 but just now is making it's presence known to the rest of the world. 

Why this hit home with me
I just recently paid a visit to my buddy JD who owns a health food store in San Antonio, Texas ( www.nutradox.com ). I had to take my son there to get a document apostiled at a state capital for his passport renewal and Austin, just up the road,  was the closest state capital.  JD is into Reams RBTI testing and while there he took a saliva and urine test from each of us, analyzed it, and proceeded to lecture us for several hours on how our bodies were acid and we had to get back into an alkaline state if we wanted any kind of health. This wasn't a 5 minute pitch. This man is obsessed with knowledge in his field and imparting that to his people.  He was serious about how the water we drink, even the bottled purified water, as well as all the other liquids we drink which are acid, ESPECIALLY soda pop (as you will see in the videos below),  is killing us. He even sold expensive water there that was wetter water and alkaline to boot.  I didn't really understand what that meant until I came across "ionized water", water that has been ionized via electrolysis,  loaded up with extra electrons to give up to the free radicals in your body that need electrons to complete their outer shell.   Otherwise they simply steal them from your healthy cells and bones.  When I became exposed to what  you see below and started watching the videos; everything JD told me started to really make sense. The water ionizing machines below that separate water into an acid and alkaline component, so you can drink alkaline ionized water and restore your system's balance, are one of the most health giving, life saving, attention getting devices to ever come out in the marketplace. This is a product you are going to want to use.

Benefits
The list of benefits (see the three tech pages) from drinking this kind of water is endless; from weightloss with no other changes, to diabetes control, to increasing growth hormone production in your body, age reversing, blood pressure reduction - the consumption of alkaline antioxidant water for a period of 2 to 3 months will cause blood pressure to slowly drop due to the water's solvent ability, which dissolves the cholesterol in the blood vessels, to almost eliminating the possibility of colon cancer (watch the video of the insides of the colon after using alkaline ionized water for a month or so) as well as other cancers. You owe it to yourself to read everything on this site.  I'll tell you the prices and how to get one at the bottom. Especially take the time to watch all the videos. This is life changing stuff.  Ponce De Leon would have claimed he had found the fountain of youth if he had one of these.  Ber

You can see more videos on alkaline ionized water at my competitor's Enagic site at www.MyKwater.com but keep in mind the Enagic unit doesn't do anything more for you than the Jupiter units do here except they cost three times more. 
Good information on his site though

Ionized Water
Ionized water has become a household word in Japan and is used  to describe pure, healthy, alkaline drinking water which is rich in minerals, purged of impurities, and ionized through electrolysis to obtain active hydrogen which is abundant in "extra" electrons. These extra electrons impart strong anti-oxidant properties to the drinking water which combat the free radicals in your body. The free radicals use these electrons to complete their outer shells and achieve stability instead of robbing the electrons from your healthy cells and bones which damages them. 

Medical treatment at home

Therapy using both alkaline and acidic water for both external and internal use has been recognized as a valid medical treatment in Japan since the 1960s and it is practiced in many of Japan's leading hospitals. All kinds of treatments have had dramatic results and the fortunate patients asked how they could continue their safe, healthy, beneficial water treatment at home. They were told they could not. Enagic recognized a potential large market where both the company and its customers could benefit greatly, so they started doing research to be able to make a consumer unit to produce ionized  water in the home. They succeeded beyond their expectations and were able to develop machines that could be sold to consumers for only $4000. Mainly because this equipment can only be sold to an educated market, they decided on network marketing as their primary means of distribution  - this method of marketing has essentially added three times the cost to the product but they have been selling their equipment that way since the mid 1990s. 
Jupiter water ionizing machines, from IonLife - which I recommend below will yield the same performance for a $595 to $1495 price tag. 

Electrolysis

Electrolysis is the process that separates water into alkaline and acidic water. The desired pH level of the resulting water can be selected by the operator of the machine.

The pH of the alkaline and acidic water will always add up to 14. Therefore, if ideal drinking water of pH 9.5 is selected, medium acidic water of pH 5.5 (used mainly for skin care) will also be produced. If strong ionized water of pH 11 (a powerful solvent used mainly for cleaning) is selected, strong acidic water of pH 2.5 (a strong disinfectant with many important uses) will also be produced. The uses and benefits of these 4 types of water is the subject of the videos which you can watch on this website. Neutral water of pH 7 (filtered for purity, but not ionized) can also be produced, but its only important use is for taking prescription medication and it is not a subject of the videos.


Ionized water - an antioxidant

Alkaline ionized water is perhaps more powerful than any single food or vitamin supplement, because it contains active hydroxyl ions which supply huge amounts of extra electrons to our body.  In fact, the antioxidant potential of a single glass of ionized water from these machines would cost several dollars to duplicate with vitamin supplements and they would never be absorbed by our body the way water is.

In fact, ionized water is so powerful as an antioxidant that your body will no longer have to use up calcium to supply electrons to free radicals. One of the movies to come later will show how your body retaining more calcium will lead to weight loss.

Magical miracle healing water has been found in nature at only 5 specific locations throughout the world. Large numbers of people from all over the world wait in line almost every hour of every day to obtain some of this water at all 5 locations. Many claim to be healed, and that's what keeps everyone coming back, but most simply can't drink the water over a long enough period of time to get the desired results. For many years, the healing power of this magical water was a mystery, but recent analysis has shown that ionized water has the same properties and actually improves on this miracle water, and it can be produced in your own home right from your tap.

Claims and evidence...
In the United States we are not allowed to claim that ionized water will actually do all of those things. However, the benefits of reducing our body's acidity has long been recognized in the medical profession even in the United States.
Does our water actually reduce the body's acidity and help to restore the body to a youthful condition? We can't say, but we can present documented individual case studies and let you make up your own mind. That is the purpose of the videos above.
What about the other wondrous non-health related claims made for alkaline ionized  water? Is the strong acidic water possibly the most powerful disinfectant known? Can it make even restaurants and hospitals sterile and safe without the use of any other disinfectants?
Can the strong ionized water really clean stubborn stains in carpet and clothing and can it really thoroughly clean even a greasy busy restaurant kitchen - all without soap or any other additives?
Can the medium acidic water replace most or all of your skin care products and hair conditioners?
These are areas where you will have to provide the answers upon using the ionized water, but evidence from others seems to support such claims
.

DID YOU KNOW?
75%
of Americans are  chronically dehydrated.

In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is often mistaken for hunger.

Even MILD dehydration will slow down one's metabolism as much as 3%.

Other facts
One glass of water will shut down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University of Washington study.

Lack of water, the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue. Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers.

A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen or on a printed page.

Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79%, and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer.

Water is the foundation of Health

Drinking plenty of water benefits us in some very important ways. First, water sustains life. Second, it fights the formation of gallstones and kidney stones. Third, it helps cleanse and purify body. As it circulates through the body, water not on y brings in nutrients and carries away waste materials, but also rids the body of carcinogenic dioxins, environmental hormones and other harmful substances. The kidneys and the urinary bladder serve as the conduit for water that removes these waste materials and harmful compounds if carcinogens accumulate at the same spot in the body, they can invade the cells and cause cancer. Water washes away these cancer-causing compounds, thus reducing the risk of cancer. Cigarette smoking increases the incidence of bladder cancer, but it is known that drinking plenty of water an diuretics such as black tea, green tea, and coffee also reduce the risk of bladder cancer.

Many people think that the way to lose weight is to cut down on the amount of food and water they drink, and to engage in activities that make them perspire. However limiting fluid intake not only has harmful health effects, but can also lead to hardening of the arteries in the brain and the heart.

Water accounts for 60~7O% of our total body weight (the proportion differs depending on age.) Sometimes we have to go to the toilet right after drinking cold water, but the fact is that the water we drink does not go immediately to the Kidneys and turn into urine. The fluid we ingest along with our food is absorbed in the intestines along with a complex mixture of nutrients, vitamins, and minerals. Water then circulates as part of the blood stream to all parts of the body. Much of this it is filtered by the kidneys, where it mixes with waste materials to form urinen. We lose about O.8 liters of water daily from evaporation and absorption of water from the surface of our skin. When we perspire from physical activity, we lose even more water. If we do not replace at least this much water, we can become dehydrated. Just sweating a lot and drinking less water is no way to diet. People do not gain weight from drinking plenty of water. We have to have water in order to metabolize fat, this means that drinking water will actually help us lose weight. Also, right after sports activity that makes us sweat, if we drink water it will be absorbed quickly to give us what we need. Tonized water, supplemented with trace elements. Will help us recover from fatigue more quickly.

Unnoticed evaporation (fluid content lost to absorption and perspiration) does not make people particularly thirsty. Replacing just 2O% of this fluid loss is enough to quench our thirst. As a result, drinking only until we are no longer thirsty often leaves us with not enough water in our systems. Unnoticed, water evaporation is even more of a problem with children, and parents need to pay close attention Thirst is also related to the concentration of trace elements in the blood Stream.

1. Children do not always drink water just because they have a water bottle with them.
2. The end result of all this is dehydration sudden or rapid onset of dehydration needs to be dealt with promptly.

However, perspiration contains both water and trace elements, so the trace element level in the blood does not necessarily change very much, and this means we do not become very thirsty.

We lose even more water when we run our air conditioners.

If we want to be truly healthy, we should be drinking 3 liters of ionized water everyday. Drinking plenty of water works to prevent inflammation, dehydration, bladder cancer, and kidney cancer. It also protects the body from dioxins and other harmful chemicals. Some people may not be able to drink quite this much water. Still, just one cup of ionized water before going to bed and after rising in the morning will cleanse the blood stream and help prevent hardening of the arteries in the brain and the heart. Please be aware, though, that using soft drink beverages to replace fluids may elevate sugar levels too much. If you cannot drink 3 liters of water a day, then you should at least try to drink 2 liters. It will also help you lose weight. Furthermore, it is inexpensive and safe. The Japan Environmental Equipment Association has stated that one out of every four five-year-olds is already a candidate for degenerative diseases in later life. We should all be concerned about this.

Essential Vocabulary

Active Oxygen

Ordinary oxygen exists as a pair bond between two oxygen atoms, represented in chemical symbols as O2 This pair bond is very stable, in contrast active oxygen consists of single non-bonded oxygen atoms. In this state, oxygen is very unstable, it will easily bond with other substances creating oxidation.

The body itself produces active oxygen under a variety of conditions. Among these conditions are coprostasis (long-term buildup of fecal matter in the intestines) and malodorous stools. Solar ultraviolet radiation also forms active oxygen when it strikes water molecules (H2O). Thus, around 2-5% of the oxygen we ingest consists of active oxygen.

Active oxygen does have some beneficial effects, but it has many more harmful effects because that active oxygen is a toxin. The reason why we get sunburned at the beach is because ultraviolet rays produce active oxygen that damages the melanin in our skin. Frequent and severe sunburn can lead to skin cancer.

When we hang out our heavy blankets to air in the sun, ultraviolet rays strike the moisture content (not only liquid) in the blanket and produce active oxygen. In turn, the active oxygen kills bacteria mold, ticks, and fleas in the blanket. However, some active oxygen remains inside the blanket, which is why there has long been a saying that you should not sleep under a blanket while it is still warm from the sunlight.

Similarly, many normal activities produce active oxygen within the body, including breathing, eating, and exercising. Smoking produces a lot of active oxygen.

The active oxygen kills harmful bacteria, which is a good thing, however, if there is too much active oxygen, it will attack normal cells and turn them cancerous.

If they attack the isles of Langerhans, insulin production will be disrupted, causing diabetes.

Essentially, the body is rusting (aging); aging is actually a disease.

Furthermore, active oxygen attacks the DNA in cell nuclei. This causes mutations in the three billion nucleotides present in human DNA. Recently we have come to understand that this is the cause of a variety of human illnesses and other maladies.

Because active oxygen has such powerful bonding capacity, it will bond with, and oxidize, virtually anything.

Oxidation changes the chemical properties of every day substances.

We see this in the form of degradation in plastic, textiles, and dyes.

Active Hydrogen

Active hydrogen bonds with active oxygen to form harmless water molecules. However, water that contains large amounts of active hydrogen is known as ionized water.

As we saw with active oxygen, ordinary hydrogen consists of a pair bond between two hydrogen atoms represented in chemical symbols as H2 in contrast active oxygen consists of single a bonded hydrogen atoms. These single hydrogen atoms have extremely powerful reducing, or anti-oxidizing, capabilities, and they chemically reduce other substances. When active hydrogen comes in contact with excess active oxygen in the body, it immediately bonds with the active oxygen to form water. Thus, it removes active oxygen from the body, and it does so harmlessly, and with no side effects. Active hydrogen reacts strongly with a great many substances, but most especially with oxygen. There are other materials besides ionized water that have a "scavenger" effect to remove excess active oxygen. The most prominent of these is super oxide dismutase, or (enzymes) SOD.

However, both the quantity and effectiveness of SOD in the body diminish with age. This means that we need to think about supplementing it.

The ideal supplement is active hydrogen.

Note: Scavenger enzymes are enzymes that prevent active oxygen from bonding with and oxidizing other substances.

pH

PH is a chemical index of acidity or alkalinity. It is the inverse ratio of the hydrogen concentration in a liquid.

A pH of 7 is completely neutral where as a pH of 7-10 is alkaline, while a pH of 2-7 is acidic.

Human stomach acid has a pH of 1.8+or- O.O3, which means it is strongly acidic.
Each change in a pH number is really a factor of ten difference. A liquid with pH of 5.0 is 100 times more acid than a liquid with a pH of 7.0 

This acid kills bacteria that enter the stomach from the mouth.

However, Illness still can occur if disease organisms enter the stomach while acid levels are low.

Other animals have even stronger stomach acid than humans, strong enough for them to ingest some harmful microbes without causing illness.

Clusters

Natural water molecules usually form into molecular clusters that are not readily absorbed through the stomach wall. The clusters often number in multiples of six. This is why when water freezes it forms hexagonal snowflakes. Ionized water contains 5-6 molecules per cluster instead of 12-18 as in regular water. Smaller clusters hydrate cells more readily than large clusters. 

Insulin

The nutrients that we ingest from food is converted into glucose, this serves as the body's energy source. Blood carries glucose through the blood vessels to every part of the body. The hormone known as insulin plays a critical role when glucose enters body cells from the blood. When the body ceases making insulin, or its activity level decreases, glucose continues to circulate in the blood stream without ever entering into cells.

This is the condition we call diabetes. When the blood is too high in sugar, while cells are malnourished Excess blood sugar is excreted through the kidneys in urine, but this requires large quantities of fluid.

This is why with the initial onset of diabetes people drink large amounts of water and have to go to the toilet more often. Initially diabetics are often unaware they are sick, which itself is a problem.

In addition, blood glucose tends to bond with proteins and accumulate on the blood vessel walls, damaging those walls. As diabetes progresses, blood glucose damages the fine capillaries in the retina and the kidneys, while also harming cranial and coronary blood vessels.

Accordingly, it is important to protect the islets of Langerhans from attack and assure the body's supply of insulin.

Oxidation-Reduction Potential (ORP)

MOST IMPORTANT.  This aspect effects free radical formation or elimination. Not all forms of ionized water are identical.
The oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) is an index of the potential for bonding with activated oxygen, or, in other words, the reduction or anti oxidation potential. Ionized water has a negative ORP, while acid water has a positive ORP. To put it differently, a negative ORP indicates reducing or anti-oxidant properties, while a positive ORP indicates acidic properties. The greater the absolute value of the ORP, the greater the ability of the substance to oxidize or reduce other substances.

All the types of purified water sold at convenience stores and supermarkets have positive ORP values.  Ionized water, on the other hand, has a pH of 8-9.5 and an ORP of-250 to-40OmV. This is the type of water that offers health benefits. "Potential" refers to the magnitude of energy to bring about a chemical reaction.

Acid Water Benefits 
Besides alkaline water, these machines make acid water too which 
can be used for:

Inactivation of Escherichia coli and Listeria on plastic kitchen cutting boards by electrolyzed oxidizing water.

Inactivation of Escherichia coli and Listeria on plastic kitchen cutting boards by electrolyzed oxidizing water.

Reductions between 91.1% and 99.8% in the bacterial load of treated alfalfa sprouts.

Foodborne pathogens can be reduced by electrolyzed oxidizing water.

Electrolyzed oxidizing water may be a useful disinfectant for hospital infections.

Effect of electrolyzed oxidizing water and hydrocolloid occlusive dressings on excised burn-wounds.

Electrolyzed anode water markedly extended the vase life of cut carnation flowers.

Ionized water will be applicable to not only medicine but also food, agriculture, and manufacturing industries.

Too much money???? 
We are walking dead people without the benefits and increase in health these water ionizing machines can provide. The pesticides, processed foods, fast foods that are acid and nutritionless, chemicals, and junk we eat and the soda pop we drink are using up our immune system fighters rapidly. Give these guys some extra ammunition (ORP's - negatively charged hydroxyl ions) to work with.

Using bottled water with your ionizer

The parameters of the water going INTO your Jupiter Ionizing machine are just as important as the machine itself if you want to fully receive the health benefits the machine is capable of giving you.  For example: if you are using bottled purified water instead of tap water or well water you need to know how your water is purified. If it is steam distilled or processed via reverse osmosis which takes all the minerals out of the water, the water ionizing machine will be of little value to you. Each of the little negative hydroxyl ions created inside the ionizer needs a positive mineral atom such as calcium, sodium, potassium or magnesium to attach to as part of the delivery system. If your purified water contains no minerals you need to add a remineralizing pre filter cartridege to the water leaving the bottle before it hits the ionizing machine to ensure you have those mineral atoms available to create the mineralized hydroxyl ion. I did that, as the water I use is contanimated well water which first goes through an RO unit, then through a remineralizer cartridge, and then through the ionizer and I end up with -375mV ORP water which is very very good for us. Read more about this and my situation and how I solved it  here.

Flojet BW1000A Water Pump

For Taking Bottled Water to Water Ionizers

The Flojet BW1000A Bottled Water Dispensing System is designed to pump water from commercially available 3, 5, or 6 gallon water bottles. The system delivers the bottled water under pressure to your Jupiter water ionizer, or to the water inlet of a refrigerator icemaker, other water tap or just about anything else you might need a fresh supply of water for.
flojet water pump The Flojet BW1000A is an industry standard and is one of the finest pumps on the market at an affordable price. Bottled Water companies have sold and rented Flojet BW1000A pumps for years because of their impeccable reputation for quality and service.

Using 5 Gallon Bottled Water with your Water Ionizer:
This on-demand electric pump will allow you to pump water through your Water Ionizer from as far as several feet away. All that will be required is a 1/4" hose clamp to be used at the connection between the Water Ionizer and the Flojet. You will not need to operate the Flojet BW1000A manually when using the dispenser in this way, turning it on and off each time you wish to use the Water Ionizer, because it has an automatic shutoff pressure switch built in. All you have to do is turn the ionizer on and off.

Flojet bottled water dispensing pump system:
Compact size for easy mounting. Automatic pump on/off operation. Automatic shut-off when bottled is empty. Fits a variety of bottles. Easy bottle change. Built-in check valve to prevent back flow. Universal seal cap. UL and CUL listed.

Use a spare 5 gallon bottle to receive the acid water and let it sit for a couple days and when it has lost it's charge, recycle it through the ionizer again so nothing is wasted.

Includes:
Suction wand and hose assembly.
Pump module with On/Off switch.
6 foot cord with plug.
20 feet of 1/4" discharge tube.
Refrigeration fitting.
Universal seal cap: Fits any 3, 5, and 6 gallon plastic water bottle.
Installation and maintenance instructions.

Specifications:
Maximum Flow: 1.0 GPM
Operating pressure to 30 PSI
Maximum Flow: 1.0 GPM
Maximum pressure: 40 PSI
Electrical: 115 volts, 50/60 Hz. 0.5 amps.
Module dimensions: 3" high, 5.5" wide, 7.5" long
Carton dimension: 6" high, 11" wide", 16" long
UL and CUL listed
Weight: 10 lbs

How System works:
When the suction wand is inserted into the water bottle, it activates the float switch on the end of the wand and turns on the pump. This same float switch shuts off the system when the bottle is empty. The wand has a built in back-flow valve that prevents water in the system from flowing back into the bottle, or spilling while changing bottles.
The dispenser system's pump module automatically adjusts the flow and pressure to fill an icemaker or dispense chilled water from a refrigerator door tap, and stops when the icemaker is full or the water valve is closed. NOTE: The system is quiet but not silent. Just as you can hear your refrigerator, dishwasher, washing machine and dryer running , you will also hear the "humming sound" of the diaphragm pump when it is pumping.

Herbal Detox Footpads

FOOT Pads that remove toxic waste from your body at night while you sleep.
When I first signed up with these guys for the ionizer I also purchased a set of herbal footpads that were supposed to remove toxic waste from your body. I tried a set and they didn't turn black overnight like they were supposed to (come to find out I didn't remove the packaging from around the herbs so the herbs never saw the skin). When my wife's parents arrived from Russia for a two month visit they saw the box of Accupeds on the counter and were curious and asked what they were for and wanted to try them. The accuped pads turned very black on their first try. So I tried them again, this time removing the film so I could get proper exposure an whoa, mine turned black overnight also. What these things do is like the Waiora Cellular Defense, pulls toxic waste and heavy metals from your body.  I just ordered a big box of them. See some pics at the accuped page. Go to 
http://www.ionizers.org/cgi-bin/redirect.cgi?goto=/&code=ball  and click on Detox Pads in the top menu and then accuped footpads.
