Ionized Water Machines – What are they? What do they do?
“What is it?” I asked. “It’s a water ionizer,” was the reply. “What the heck is a water ionizer and why are they showing this thing to me?”
That was me two years ago being introduced to something called a water ionizer after telling my friend about my aching back. He said, “Your back hurts? Drink some of this water!” He then explained, a water ionizer is a machine that 1) purifies tap water, 2) alkalizes the water, and 3) ionizes the water. Ok, the purification part I get, but why is drinking alkaline water and ionized water so important? I’ve since found out it’s exactly what our bodies are meant to have to remain healthy.
Ever heard of the magical healing waters of Tlacote, Mexico; Nordenau, Germany; or Nadana village, India? If you have then you’ll know that between 5,000 to 10,000 people, come from as far as Russia to go and stand in a daily queue for their share of this so-called healing water, as the water is claimed to cure anything from cancer to obesity. Whilst in Germany, scientific tests were carried out on Nordenau’s water and proved that 30% of people with ailments who consumed the water were totally healed, and 28% saw a marked improvement in their condition.
According to their research, one major conclusion was the healing power of the water came down to a simple property; the Negative Hydrogen Ion (OH-).
The negative hydrogen ion seems to be a powerful life-sustaining “antioxidant”. It is found in natural raw foods and ancient water sources such as glacial water run-offs, particular wells, springs and lakes. What’s special about water ionizers is they match the properties of natural occuring running water. That is, they match the natural water that is found – gushing down high-altitutde waterfalls from glaciers or mountains, where through velocity, gravity and violent impact, a natural ionization of the water occurs whilst absorbing minerals at the same time.
In a water ionizer, the water comes straight from the tap, is first purified through the unit’s filter(s) then goes through a process called electrolysis. Electrolysis is the process of running a single stream of water past two magnetically charged, electrified metal plates. This has the effect of splitting the single stream of water into two seperate, now chemically changed streams. That is, a normal H2O molecule is split into two individual, seperate molecules. An OH- (the “antioxidant”) molecule and an H+ (acidic “oxidizing”) molecule.
You may know, a “free-radical” is a molecule with an extra +charged ion. This extra +ion causes “oxidation”. Oxidation causes pre-mature aging. Think of an apple turning brown after it has been split open and exposed to the air. Or more basic, oxidation = rust. Most bottled waters out on the market have a +charged ion property to it. Therefore, if you drink a +charged water, you are in a sense, rusting (oxidizing) the inside of your body. The more oxidative (or “acidic”) your body, the more prone you are to disease and sickness.
Oppositely, by drinking a -charged water, the extra -ion goes in search of a +ion to latch onto to make itself a nuetral and natural molecule again and this “anti-oxidant”, -ion in turn has the effect of mitigating acidic (toxic) properties in your body. Since the anti-oxidant -ion mitages the premature aging effect an oxidant (+charged) ion has, many call ionized water anti-aging.
We’re all made out of water. Therefore, putting the right type of water into your body is essential to maintaing good and proper health. Using a ionized water machine, is one way to help keep your body as healthy as possible.
If you have a personal health challenge or know someone who does, I urge you to immediately begin research on ionized water and water ionizing machines. One great place to start is my website where you’ll learn the science behind the water, learn about the machines themselves and most importantly, learn about the health properties drinking ionized, alkaline water can have.
