Looking at the diagram of how Kangen water is produced, my question is... What is a water molecule? H2O?
In the purest form, we all know that water = H2O.
In the past, alkaline water is obtain from springs or running the water through filters containing different kinds of mineral stones to gain it's hydrogen content, that is good for our health. (Refer to my post on Novita HydroPlus for a machine that works the conventional way)
What are the benefits of Hydrogen Rich water? Reports have shown that the alkaline and anti-oxidant helps to reduce reactive oxygen metabolites in the blood and helps to reduce inflammation.
Now, this brings me back to Kangen water. Looking at the diagram above, did you discover what is different from the conventional water of obtaining alkaline water? Yes, they slice the molecules apart forming H+ and HO-. HO- is then discharged as acidic. During the demonstration, they will clearly show you that this Kangen water has small molecules than water and can penetrate your body faster and easier due to the smaller molecule. But like what i emphasised at the beginning, water = H2O. If you are only drinking H+ everyday, over a long period of time your body will eventually experience dehydration because you have not been drinking 'water'!
Is it good for our stomach to be taking in too much alkaline water? Our stomach is the most acidic place in our digestive system. It is believed that the acid are important for the destroying of bacteria and free radicals found on our food and to break down protein for our body to adsorb. What happens when our stomach become too alkaline base? Bacteria and free radicals cannot be fully destroyed. Over all period, our body will start to lack protein, despite of the amount of meat, eggs or high protein food you take in because the stomach acid enzymes needed to breakdown those protein are now diluted and made alkaline. On another hand, our body will also fight the alkaline by producing even more acid, depending on individual body, this might lead too stomach acidity too high causing burnin stomach wall, heart burn and other issues.
For those who have the Kangen water machine, whats next? BALANCE is the key of life!
My advise is to take in moderation for those who already have the machine. DO NOT stop drinking H2O. This H+ SHOULD NOT replace your intake of H2O.
- Purified water: Water that is physically processed to remove impurities (e.g., distillation, deionization, reverse osmosis, carbon filtration, etc.)
- Distilled water: Water that is boiled and evaporated away from its dissolved minerals, and then the vapor is condensed.
- Bottled Water. This water is typically from a spring or has gone through reverse osmosis before it is bottled. However, some brands are simply bottled tap water that may or may not have gone through any additional filtering.
- Alkaline water: Water that has been separated into alkaline and acid fractions using electrolysis, which takes advantage of the naturally occurring electric charges found in the magnesium and calcium ions; in the drinking water industry.
- Deionized or demineralized water: Water in which the mineral ions (salts such as sodium, calcium, iron, copper, chloride and bromide) have been removed by exposing it to electrically charged resins that attract and bind to the salts.
- Hard and soft water: Hard water is any water containing an appreciable quantity of dissolved minerals; soft water is treated water in which the only cation (positively charged ion) is sodium.
Once again! Thanks for reading, hope the information finds you well and is helpful.
