How Does a Water Ionizer Work?

Tap water is filled with industrial waste and discarded pharmaceuticals which require intense filtering for optimum health. The first part of any good water treatment involves the filtering of the incoming water supply. The first thing a water ionizer does to your input tap water is filter it using a combination of bacteriological and particulate control incorporating silver-activated charcoal, the most accepted and proven method on the market.

Your water passes through an ultra-fine Biostone Filter which removes the following:
• Inorganic Chemicals
• Lead
• Organic Chemicals
• Particulate
• Pesticides
• Trihalomethanes
• Volatile Organic chemicals
• Detergents
• Asbestos
• Viruses
• Pollens

The filter however DOES NOT filter out soluble minerals. That means minerals that cannot dissolve in water; do not get through the Biostone water filter. Unlike distillers or reverse osmosis devices, the water ionizer will leave in all of the healthy minerals your body requires to function properly. After the water filter has done its job, you now have clean mineralized water ready for ionizing.

About Tap Water

There is a very clear way to demonstrate the effectiveness of water ionizers. For this we use the two measurements of pH (acid-alkaline) and OxidationReduction Potential. When your tap water arrives at your home, it will usually be a little over neutral in pH which is around 7.5. It will, however, be robbed of its electrical negative charge and will almost always have a 'positive' ORP. This means it has no antioxidant abilities and cannot assist your body in the fight against oxygen free radicals. It actually robs you of energy as you drink it. The measurement of this positive or negative charge is expressed in millivolts, so an ORP reading on our ORP meter of tap water will most likely show around +350 millivolts. After it has been through Ionizing it will most likely show anything from -150 to -650mv (depending on the amount of soluble minerals in the water and on the original pH of the water).

Scientists at University Japan have conducted long term research into optimum alkalinity of drinking water for health, and have determined it to be from pH 8 to 9.5.

Acid less than a pH 7 water is a willing host for microorganisms, bacteria and viruses.

You need a negative charge in your drinking water for it to be at all antioxidant.

You need the ability to adjust pH for each individual user or family member.

Ionizing

The water now enters the ionization chamber. Here it has a very specific low voltage electric current passed through it, which causes the soluble minerals in it to be attracted to either a positive 'pole' or a negative 'pole' depending on their own valiancy, or electrical energy signature. When this happens, the water separates into alkaline and acid streams. We drink the alkaline water and we use the acid water externally, for skin, healing, plants and disinfecting. This function is under the watchful eye of the 'brains' of the water ionizer, a solid state onboard computer (MICOM) that determines the exact voltage for each user, chosen by a simple press of a button. The great thing about this process is the fact that the minerals in the water that flow out with the alkaline water are beneficial, while the minerals that flow out with the acid water are not. Thus, you drink purified, beneficially mineralized alkaline water.

Minerals and mineral compounds such as fluoride flow out in the acid water. At the same time, the alkaline water undergoes a profound change. From ordinary H20 it becomes OH-. This means it becomes a powerful antioxidant formula at an atomic level. It also means that it changes the way its molecules group together. Instead of 'clumping' in large groups of 12 molecules, it gathers in much smaller (around half the size) groups. This is why people refer to the experience of drinking from water ionizers as effortless. This change of molecular form also means, according to Dr. Hayashi, of the Japanese Water Institute, that it gains the ability to penetrate tissue and cell walls far more easily. This is why many people experience detoxification effects in the first few weeks of drinking the water, as it infiltrates areas that have not been reachable with ordinary H20.

What is pH ?

Acidic elements have a pH below 7, while base (alkaline) products have a pH higher than 7. A neutral pH is 7.

Internal neutral pH is the key to balance. The goal of the human body is to reach and maintain a state of equilibrium (a neutral pH). Due to the fact that a majority of the foods and drinks we take in are acidic, our bodies are constantly working to neutralize their environment with alkaline forming elements.

Why You Should Have a Water Ionizer?

Unfortunately, many of us don’t consume enough alkaline producing substances. Our modern lifestyle and diet make it increasingly difficult to maintain the equilibrium the body seeks. Poor diet, stress, pollution and lack of proper rest all increase the amount of internal acid. In some instances, the body becomes so acidic that it will take calcium (an alkaline-forming element) from our bones and use it to maintain proper pH in the body.

Obviously, our bodies need the calcium to protect us from osteoporosis. Therefore, it is important to help the body achieve the balance it needs by including alkaline producing items in the diet. Ionized water is an excellent and convenient way to add alkaline to your diet. The KYK water ionizer produces all the alkaline water your body requires to enhance internal pH and increases overall health.

Imagine drinking water from a natural stream in the comfort of your own home. Water that has not been altered by the modern world which is pure, delicious and beneficial for drinking and cooking can now be yours with the KYK water ionizer.

The History of the Water Ionizer

The water ionizing system was first introduced in Japan some 30 years ago. In some parts of the world, the average person lives to be over 100 years old and remains in excellent overall health. This is a result of consuming alkalized water. The Water ionizer was created to emulate the natural condition of water in an icy stream, rolling from a mountain top. Water in this pristine state is the alkaline ionized water, which offers beneficial internal pH balance for overall better health and well being.
