Ionized water,
also called alkaline water, is produced by an alkaline water ionizer. A water
ionizer is more than a water filter or water purification system; it is a
unique type of water system that transforms the molecular structure of water to
an ionized state. It is this ionized state that is believed to provide so
many health benefits.
Liquid Antioxidant
Ionized water is a potent natural antioxidant. Antioxidants are compounds that
have powerful anti-cancer, anti-aging, and disease fighting properties. They
work by neutralizing the harmful effects of free radicals, which not only cause
disease but also cause us to age prematurely.
Ionizer water contains Hydroxyl Ions, which are oxygen molecules that have an
extra electron. Hydroxyl Ions seek out and donate their extra electron to free
radicals, which are oxygen molecules that are each missing one electron.
Ionized water, being liquid, is even more effective than other antioxidants
because it is easily absorbed into the body.
Balancing Body pH
Ionized water is highly alkaline, which enables it to balance body pH, helping
to correct its acid/alkaline balance. Our body pH is commonly acidic as a
result of the acidic nature of our diet, which increasingly consists of
acid-producing foods such as fast food, processed foods and soft drinks.
This type of diet tends to deposit acidic waste in our systems, which
accumulates over time, creating an environment conducive to degenerative
disease. The body pH of many cancer patients, for example, tends to be highly
acidic. The alkaline properties of ionized water help flush acidic waste from
the body.
Antibacterial Properties
Clinical research tests on ionized water in the United Kingdom determined that
it kills over 99% of all known forms of bacteria, including E. Coli and
Staphylococcus Aureus. In Japan, it is used to protect against bacteria and
viruses, sterilize wounds and to treat diabetic ulcers.
Cell Hydration
Ionized
water is more than five times more hydrating than conventional and filtered
water. The ionized water molecule cluster is smaller in size and has its shape
changed to hexagonal. This molecular shape and size makes it more hydrating to
the body cells because it is absorbed into the tissues far more easily and
efficiently.
