Why is Kangen Water Important??

Alkaline Water is a healthier form of water, with significant and beneficial anti-oxidant properties.  Creating Alkaline Water starts with a thorough filtration of impurities and then an electrolysis process, which separates ordinary water (H20) into two completely separate entities.  One half of the separated water are the positive acidic molecules, while the other half are the negative alkaline molecules. Alkaline water (with a pH of 8.5 - 9.5) for drinking purposes and acidic water (with a pH of 2.5 - 6.5) is used for topical applications.  

Alkaline Ionized Water is very high in antioxidants that helps boost your body's health.  The human body needs to maintain balance between acidic and alkaline properties to properly process foods, make repairs, and generally remain in proper balance.  Ingesting too many acidic foods and beverages, most notably carbonated soft drinks, can lower the body's natural pH levels to dangerously acidic levels, which can be a breeding ground for disease.  By consuming the Alkaline Ionized Water, a person may restore his or her body's proper pH balance and 
perhaps even become more alkaline, which would be great for anyone's health.

In addition to containing natural anti-oxidants and being high in alkaline, Alkaline Ionized Water also has smaller water molecule clusters, which makes them more readily absorbed by the body. Ordinary tap water or unprocessed bottled waters have larger water molecule clusters, which tend to pass through the body without reaching individual cells.  Without proper re-hydration, these cells can suffer from a form of cellular dehydration and either die too soon or fail to function efficiently or properly.  Alkaline Ionized Water has the ability to re-hydrate these cells before they essentially degenerate and helps keep them healthy and working at optimal levels.

The Advantages Of Using Electrolytic Water

 

You will discover ways that Alkaline Ionized Water with a pH of 8.0 - pH 9.5 can be used; 15 different ways that Acidic Water with a pH of 4.0 - pH 6.5 can be used; 6 different ways to use Strong Alkaline Ionized Water with a pH of 11.0 or higher; and 5 different ways to use Strong Acidic Water with a pH of 2.7 or lower. Uncover different uses for these unique waters!

Child Dehydration: How You Can Help with Kangen Water®
January 31st, 2011
America’s Dehydrated Youth
If you think you should only hydrate for your own benefit, think again! America’s children are suffering from dehydration, and they need positive role models to lead them to healthier choices.

According to the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, only 15 to 60 percent of boys, and 10 to 54 percent of girls (depending on their age) drink the bare minimum amount of water recommended by the U.S. Institute of Medicine1.


Sugary drink for lunch
So what are they drinking instead of water? A recent study at Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health found that 84% of children and teens drink at least one sugar-sweetened beverage every day2. The most popular sugary drink is – no shock here – soda, followed by fruit punches, fruit drinks, and sports drinks2.
The excessive consumption of these unhealthy drinks can lead to a variety of issues, including childhood obesity, energy imbalance, and high acidity2.

Our children need to stay properly hydrated for optimal health. Even slight dehydration can affect physiological functioning, mental development, and cognitive performance1. What action can we all take to break America’s youth from their addiction to sugar?

The Change Starts with You!
No parent or child is going to listen to the advice of someone who isn’t staying hydrated himself. Make sure you’re consuming the recommended 2 to 3 liters of Kangen Water® every day. Educate yourself about the importance of staying balanced and hydrated, and feel comfortable talking to parents and children about the necessity of drinking plenty of water every day, instead of unhealthy sweetened beverages.

So when you want to set a good example for others on how to live a healthy life, choose to hydrate with Kangen Water®!

Prostate Caner Patient Succeeds with Ioinzed Water

Not everyone wants to share their stories for privacy reasons, which is perfectly understandable. Those that do share their stories have my deepest respect and gratitude, because they can educate and inspire others.
This is a real life love story of a woman that refused to let her husband’s prostate cancer destroy their lives. The couple had all the medical help you could possibly imagine, as you will see, but the medical community was simply not getting the job done. The wife refused to accept the medical prognosis. She researched and found alkaline ionized water, and made her skeptical husband drink the water faithfully every day. The husband beat prostate cancer, but the victory definitely belongs to them as a couple.
Prostate cancer is detected by a blood test which measures the level of PSA (prostate-specific antigen). PSA is a protein produced by the prostate, which is released into the bloodstream. When prostate cancer develops and grows, increased levels of PSA are released into the bloodstream. PSA levels under 5ng/ml are considered “normal”, between 5 and 10 are considered “intermediate”, and over 10 are considered “high”.
The husband’s PSA count remained at 85 in February 2009 despite the best efforts over an extended period of time by four of the leading oncologists in the world. The couple spared no effort or expense in their attempt to get rid of the cancer, including visits to meet and work with the leading physicians at both Princess Margaret Hospital in Toronto, and John Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore. When the primary oncologist on the case said that they would begin chemotherapy if the next round of tests didn’t improve, the wife took over. She researched many alternatives on the internet and decided that alkaline ionized water was the best course of action. Her research indicated that the water couldn’t hurt, and that there were many reports of the water helping with cancer.
The wife ordered a water ionizer and made her husband drink the water every day, despite being skeptical. When he returned for his next PSA test, the level had dropped to 18. The husband was so “stunned” by the results that he had an independent test done shortly afterwards. When the results came back from the independent test, the level had dropped to 13. The family was ecstatic of course. When the husband returned for his next test at the hospital, the PSA level had dropped to 5. The oncologist informed him that he was no longer considered a cancer patient, as his PSA level was considered “normal”.
The four oncologists involved with the case from the various hospitals all marveled at the “miracle”. The husband informed each of them that it was not a miracle at all. When asked to explain by the doctors what he meant, he told all of them that the only thing that he had changed in his life, was drinking the ionized water that his wife made him drink each day.
The husband asked each specialist to write a review of the case, but none of them would comply. Western medicine continues to ignore the growing number of cases where people have used alkaline ionized water to reduce the acid level in their bodies, so that the body can heal itself. The good news is that the husband no longer has cancer, and every case builds awareness of how water can play a key role in helping achieve and maintain good health.
My personal thanks go to the couple involved for sharing their story with us.

15 Reasons to Drink Alkaline Water

15 Reasons for Drinking
Electron Rich Alkaline Structured Water
 

1) When you first get up in the morning,
drink 1 liter of electron rich alkaline pH
Water with or without  green powder.  This
helps to flush out your kidneys, bladder and
bowels and rehydrates and energizes or recharges
your body with extra electrons. Remember that
energy is electrons in motion.

2) Drink at least 4 liters of electron-rich,
alkaline, structured pH Water daily. 
Drink one 16 ounce glass every hour or 1 liter
every 2 hours. You may have to work up to this,
but this should be your best-case healthy goal. 
Your stomach, kidneys and bladder will be 'happy'
to accommodate this effort if you keep at it with
determination. If you weigh less than 120 pounds,
decrease by about 20%; if you weigh 190 to 250
pounds, increase about 20%; if you weigh more
than 250 pounds, increase 30%.

3) Some scientists say it is best to drink half
an hour before eating and between meals.   Water's
role is to bathe the cells in alkalinity with its
electrons which will help prepare your body to
receive food. 
If you are eating a high water content meal, you
may also drink with your meal.  Yes, you read me
right -- YOU CAN DRINK WITH YOUR MEALS -- if you
are eating a high water content meal and using
high pH Water.

4) Drink electron-rich, alkaline, pH
Water at habitual times throughout the day. 
Don't wait until you are hungry or thirsty because
many times when you feel hungry, your body is
really thirsty. 
Thirst always indicates a present state of mild
dehydration.

5) Increase your drinking by drinking at least
1 liter of electron-rich, structured, pH
Water for each one hour one hour of exercise
or stressful mental activity.

6) Learn to listen to your body. Do you feel
dehydrated?  Is your mouth dry?  Are you
experiencing fatigue or light-headedness? 
Always use electron-rich, structured, pH
Water before taking any medication. 
Your body is crying out for water!  Over time,
with healthy food, water, and detoxification,
your need for medication may very well be
reduced or eliminated.

7) Drink at least 1 liter per 30 pounds of weight
of electron-rich, structured, pH Water
with green veggie powder or diluted fresh juices
to maintain hydration during extreme weight loss,
muscle building or weight gain.

8) Drink only electron-rich, alkalikne, pH
Waterwith or without the green powder or
diluted fresh green juices.  Avoid commercial sport drinks, energy drinks,
caffeinated sodas, tea, coffee, cholcolate drinks,
alcohol and/or beer.

9) End each day with 16 ounces of electron-rich,
structured, alkaline pH Water.

10) To help elimination if congested or
constipated, drink the electron-rich, alkaline
pH Water warm.

11) The health of the 70 trillion cells that
make up your body must be bathed in alkalinity.

12) The Stomach needs to be alkaline at 7.2 or
better so drink lots of pH Water to
buffer the hydrochloric acid in the stomach!

13) You perspiration should be alkaline at 7.2
so drink lots of pH Water and sweat
alkaline.

14) Remember, you must 'pee or perspire' your
way to incredible health, energy, and vitality
and you can speed the path dramatically by
drinking pH  Water.

15) Finally, always remember that your body is
"alkaline by design and acidic by function"
so drink pH Kangen Water to live a healthy
and energetic life free from all sickness and
dis-ease.

Experts Weigh In on Alkaline Water

Improve your health without relying on vitamins and supplements:
Alkaline water: What the experts say

Why is alkaline water important for your health.



Our bodies function best when they are neither too acid nor too alkaline. Unfortunately most of us have become acidic due to diet, drink, and stress--both psychological and from pollution. Acidity or alkalinity is measured by "pH", which ranges from 0 on the acid side to 14 on the alkaline. Neutral is pH7. Our blood system is always working to keep itself in the narrow range of pH 7.35 to 7.45. Drinking alkaline water helps the body maintain a healthy pH level.

While fruits and vegetables are alkaline foods, many other common foods are acid producing. Stress, smoking, alcohol, and a sedentary lifestyle also add to the acidity of the body.

How then do you reduce harmful acidic toxins in the body?

To assist the body in being more alkaline you can choose to: eat an 80% alkaline food (fruit and vegetable)/ 20% acid food diet (grains, meat etc.); or supplement with alkaline substances (such as vegetable juices--especially beet, carrot and greens).

But you should also know that our research shows that for many, alkaline diets can be difficult to follow and may become boring after time. Probably the easiest way to assist your body in becoming more alkaline is to drink alkaline water, the product of alkaline water ionizers.
 
Experts speak about alkaline water:


"International studies show that populations with little or no history of illness, such as cancer, drink higher (pH) alkaline waters. After all potential risk factors were considered and factored out, it became evident that they had been drinking waters with a pH of 9.0 to 10.0." Dr. Leonard Horowitz in "Aids and Ebola"

"Alkaline water rids the body of acid waste. After carefully evaluating the results of my advice to hundreds of individuals, I'm convinced that toxicity in the form of acidic waste is the primary cause of degenerative disease." Dr. Sherry Rogers, author, "Detox or Die"

"I am a big fan of electron-rich and alkaline water made from water ionizers that give water a pH of almost 10. Plants love the acidic water. I actually call this water, plasma-activated micro-ionized water, that has a smaller molecule cluster of 1 to 2 molecules versus 10 to 24 in most tap water." Sam Graci, Creator of Greens+, and an internationally-renowned researcher, formulator, lecturer, consultant, and author in the field of optimal health and nutrition.


"It is my opinion that ionized (alkaline) water will change the way in which all health practitioners and the public approach their health in the coming years." Dr.Theodore Baroody in "Alkalize or Die."

"Since the waste products we are trying to discharge are acidic, the right kind of water is alkaline water. My personal recommendation is to enjoy the foods that we like, but do not over-eat or exclude any food. Eat in moderation following professional dieticians' "balanced diet" concept, and let alkaline water do the job of cleansing acidic wastes. Do not use food to cleanse wastes, thus running the risk of creating nutritional deficiency or imbalance." Sang Whang ("Reverse Aging")

"Microwater first came to notice in Japan, where researchers noted that people drinking water that came from certain fast-moving rocky mountain streams enjoyed extraordinarily good health. It turned out that this naturally occurring water was alkaline and had a different structure and electrical properties." Larry Clapp, PhD. in "Prostate Health in 90 Days"

Hear what President Bill Clinton and Dr. Dean Ornish have to say about the alkaline lifestyle

"The cells and fluids in most people's bodies...are overly acidic. This can cause a lot of health problems. It prevents your body from neutralizing and disposing of harmful, poisonous toxins and leaves you more susceptible to the cell-damaging free radical oxidation that leads to cancer and other diseases." Dr. Robert Atkins, noted author, health and diet expert.

"Alkaline water, produced by a Water Ionizer has become the most important advancement in health care since Sir Alexander Fleming’s discovery of penicillin.” Dr. William Kelley, College of Metabolic Medicine, author "Cancer Cure".

"Peak performance and optimal health depend on the body's ability to maintain a slightly alkaline state in virtually all of our cells and tissues...Drinking four to six glasses of alkaline water a day will help to neutralize over acidity and over time will help to restore your buffering ability." Susan Lark, M.D. in "The Chemistry of Success".

"...If the blood develops a more acidic condition, then these excess acidic wastes have to be deposited somewhere in the body. If this unhealthy process continues year after year, these areas steadily increase in acidity and their cells begin to die. Other cells in the affected area may survive by becoming abnormal; these are called malignant. This is the beginning of cancer....Modern medicine treats these malignant cells as if they were bacteria and viruses. It uses chemotherapy, radiation and surgery to treat cancer. Yet none of these treatments will help very much if the environment of the body continues to remain acidic." Dr. Keith Morishita, "The Hidden Truth of Cancer."

"There are two strategies that you can use to restore your body's alkaline reserves, which are needed for detoxification and destroying oxygen free radicals:
1. Avoid indigestible acids. These are found in soft drinks, particularly colas...
2. Drink alkaline water. Metabolic processes create acidic waste products, so it it is necessary to restore your alkaline reserves. An effective way to do this is by drinking alkaline water." .Ray Kurzweil and Dr. Terry Grossman, M.D. in "Fantastic Voyage: live long enough to live forever"

"Alkalize your body and live a healthier, more energized, and ultimately more fulfilling life. Our acid-alkaline balance is a baseline determinant of our physical health. When you break your old eating patterns, you will find yourself getting back to the real you, filled with the vitality and energy that you desire and deserve." Anthony Robbins, Author of "Awaken The Giant Within"

Kangen Water: Health from the Inside Out

Kangen Alkaline Water: The Many Well Being Benefits Of Restructured Alkaline Water
It is said that Kangen Alkaline Water may be the best water on the planet. It was initially employed for agriculture in Japan. After noticing the excellent quality of crops, the Japanese realized that human health could be enhanced by consuming it. It was given the name ‘Kangen’ – Nippongo word for ‘return to origin’.

In the 1990s, supplies of the water were ionized and used for public consumption. It features a delicious taste and a high content of minerals. Many individuals use it as an effective vitamin supplement. Studies have shown that this water can considerably lessen acidic ranges in body.

Kangen Alkaline Water has been rigorously tested. The pH level varies from 8.5 to 11 and it’s also completely free of ORP (oxidizing reduction potential). Due to this, it is a potent antioxidant. As a result, it not only neutralizes acid levels, but it eliminates accumulated toxins and foreign bodies.

When these dangerous elements are removed, the body has the capacity to return to an optimal state of health. With contaminants everywhere, individuals are continuously subjected to dangerous UV radiation, fumes, and electromagnetic forces. All of these result in an accumulation of harmful waste in the body. Stress is also accountable for causing a build-up of poisonous free radicals.

Free radicals are atomic and molecular cells which have unsound electrons. They can cause undesirable chemical reactions in the body. Research has indicated that free radicals can cause 70 percent of all health problems, especially conditions like cancer and diabetes. They are able to also stimulate the aging process.

Kangen Alkaline Water consists of natural astringents which enhance the skin by gently removing excess oil and dirt. It is also an excellent hair conditioner and is made up of antiseptic properties that clean minor abrasions, cuts and wounds. Right after brushing teeth, it can function as a mouth wash. Soaking in a bath of warm Kangen Alkaline Water can speed up healing of athlete’s foot, nail fungus infections, rashes and insect bites.

In the kitchen, you can use it as a cleaning agent to decontaminate appliances, slicing boards and dish cloths. Tenacious stains on the toilet can be taken off readily due to its powerful rate of absorption. Even freshly cut flowers will last longer when placed in a vase of Kangen Alkaline Water.

If frequently consumed, water can have quite a few health benefits and stop numerous health problems. To obtain greatest effects, it should form a part of a healthy diet, regular exercise, and a healthy lifestyle. Japan is often called ‘the nation of longevity’ so perhaps Kangen Alkaline Water is yet another one of their ‘secrets’.

Janessa Beatson has been trained in drinking water ion technology for beyond twelve years. A true pro, they would like to give you a head start with your personal Kangen Alkaline Water. Be taught about all Kangen Alkaline Water will be able to do for you.

Crohn's Testimonial

Crohn's Disease and Kangen Water

ONLY Kangen Water by Enagic has the power to Change everything!

I'm posting this for everyone with Crohns Disease but especially for my friend Wendy! Who I care and adore so very much.

I was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease approximately 20 years ago.
I started drinking Kangen Water approximately in December of 2008. For the last 3 years my disease had slowly but steadily gotten worse. There are many foods such as certain fruits and vegetables that I could no longer tolerate to eat. Loose stools and diarrhea became the norm and not the exception. Heartburn and acid reflux were an everyday occurrence for me. I had decided that this was just the way my life was going to be. I was always going to have to keep my medication with me and say goodbye to the foods I could no longer eat. I would probably have as I got older, at the least, scarred intestines and at the worst, colon cancer. The very first day I started drinking Kangen Water, my heartburn and acid reflux disappeared. Within a week my stools became normal and I actually had a bit of constipation. That hadn't happened since I was 18! I haven't had to take any medication for my Crohn’s since I started drinking Kangen Water. I'm slowly adding back the foods that I couldn't have and am glad to report that I can tolerate lettuce and grapes again. I'm so looking forward to trying watermelon this summer. I have missed that the most. Because of the very nature of my disease, my body does not absorb vitamins very well, especially the B vitamins. On top of that, vitamin supplements made me sick to my stomach. Not only is my body now getting vitamins from my food more effectively, but I can tolerate supplements again.

I always thought that I slept well for the most part but after a week of drinking Kangen Water I realized I didn't know what good sleep was. I woke up refreshed (I thought that was just a saying) and ready to start my day. I still have aches and pains, because I'm an active 42 year old, but the strains and pinches don't last as long or are as intense as they used to be. A strained back muscle no longer knocks me down for the rest of the day but only for a few hours. I don't have to take stronger medications to get rid of the pain like ibuprofen (which irritates the stomach) but can get by with just Tylenol.

I always knew water was good for you and an important part of bodily function, but I never thought it could change my health so dramatically. Thank you Mindy, Rick, and Kangen Water!
