FAQ

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

1. What is an Antioxidant Water Ionizer?
It’s a water electrolysis machine with a built in high performance filter cartridge. It produces high pH alkaline antioxidant drinking and cooking water, which has the pH value in the 11-12 range. The acid water from the machine has the pH value in 2.5 – 4.5 ranges. The source water is electrolyzed and divided into alkaline minerals and acid minerals. This machine can handle flow rates up to 2.5 gallons per minute and produces about 1.25 gallons of alkaline water per minute. All the functions of the water ionizer are controlled by an on-board microprocessor based controller that allows push button adjustment of electrolysis to various levels.
2. What are the benefits of electrolyzed antioxidant alkaline water?
The benefits of Alkaline Water:

1) Quick supply of Antioxidant
2) Helps balance body pH
3) Helps reduce excess acidity
4) Healthy for intestinal tract
(1) Reduced water exhibits

1) High pH
2) Low dissolved oxygen
3) Extremely high dissolved molecular hydrogen
4) Significantly negative Oxidation Reduction Potential (ORP) values
(2) The electrolysis process not only gains an excess amount of electrons, but also reduces the cluster of molecules in size from13-14, which is the size of ordinary tap water, to 5-7. Due to its smaller clusters with lower molecular weight, antioxidant Alkaline Water is readily absorbed by the body system. It is able to better deliver nutrients to all the cells, tissues, and organs and accelerates metabolism with increased elimination of acidic wastes from the body.
(3) Antioxidant Alkaline water neutralizes acidity, thus helping the body to naturally rid itself of acidic waste products in human body. Human blood has a pH value ranging from 7.3 to 7.45. 97% of the food we eat will produce high levels of acid in the body. These acids, if not neutralized cause inflammation, free radicals, and kill healthy cells by stealing oxygen. Alkaline water and food will not only dissolve these harmful acids but will help remove them from the body by allowing them to pass safely through the kidneys and not be stored in our joints and organs.
3. What are the health benefits?
People frequently notice improvements in various bodily functions, from digestion, to blood sugar, to blood pressure.
4. What is the difference with R/O, Distilled, or any other filtered waters?
Electrolyzed reduced water is antioxidant water, and it’s very beneficial to your health because it is rich in free electrons and electrolytes. Other forms of filtration remove various chemicals and/ or minerals from the water, but it is still oxidized state.
5. How long can I keep the alkaline water?
Our stability tests have shown that Electrolyzed Plus Fitness Fuel if stored in a closed bottle is relatively stable for up to 1 year
6. What is ORP?
ORP is Oxidation Reduction Potential, or Redox Potential; it is measured in mV, and can be either positive or negative. It indicates that the availability or lack of free electrons in the water. A negative value is an indication of the antioxidant value of the water. Tap water and most bottled waters have a high ORP. With electrolysis ORP goes down and pH goes up.
7 What is pH?
PH indicates the acidity or alkalinity of a substance. The scale runs from 0 to 14. PH value 7 is neutral, lower than 7 is acidic, and higher than 7 is alkaline. Tab water is usually in the range of 7. With electrolysis, pH goes up as ORP goes down. You can regulate the pH directly with the level setting of the machine, or indirectly by changing the water flow. If you slow down the water flow, you are intensifying the alkalinity, because the water has more time to go through the electrolysis stage.

ALKALINE WATER KNOWLEDGE AND FACTS

Every living cell within our body creates waste products. The nutrients from our food are delivered to each cell and they burn with oxygen to provide energy for us to live. The burned nutrients are the waste products. Whether you eat the best of foods or the worst, all foods generate waste products. Foods are classified as good or bad for you are based on the amount and quality of the waste products it produces. Most of our cells go through metabolism and these old dead cells also become waste products.
Our body will discharge this waste through urine and perspiration. Basically, all waste products are acidic, that is the reason for our skin and urine has a low P.H. The real problem is that our body cannot get rid of 100% of the waste it produces. Our life style, such as lack of rest, types of foods we eat and our environment helps produce these waste products, but does not help us eliminate them.
The question is: “What happens to those non-disposed acid waste?”
These waste products become solid wastes, such as, cholesterol, fatty acid, kidney stones, etc, and, unknown to us they accumulate and build up somewhere within our body. This accumulation of non-disposed acidic wastes within our body accelerates the aging process.
Drinking alkaline water helps dissolve our body’s acid wastes and makes it easier for the body to dispose of them. The accumulation of wastes accelerates the aging process; the reduction of acid wastes retards the aging process…even reversing over a period of time.
Alkaline water is not a medicine to treat or cure any diseases but if consumed regularly, alkaline water reduces the acid waste, allowing a natural health improvement.
Stomach Acid:
The question is: “What happens to the alkaline water once it reaches the stomach, which is highly acidic?”
In order to digest food and kill bacteria found in our foods, our stomach produces acid (PH of 4). When we intake alkaline water, the ph level the stomach rises. The stomach detects the alkaline water and commands itself to produce more acid, bringing the ph level back to 4.
At first thought this seems counter productive. But once you understand how the stomach wall makes hydrochloric acid, the process becomes clear.
The cells in the stomach must produce hydrochloric acid on an as needed basis. The ingredients to make the acid are carbon dioxide, water, sodium chloride or potassium chloride. The by-product of this acid is sodium bicarbonate or potassium bicarbonate… that is delivered to the blood stream.
These bicarbonates are the alkaline buffers that neutralize excess acids in the blood, as well as dissolving acid wastes.
As our bodies age, and accumulate more acid waste, the natural alkaline buffers that are made cannot handle such a big job. That’s where alkaline water comes into play.
We need these alkaline buffers in our blood to help our cells from becoming too acidic and producing disease.
Why Alkaline Water?
We all know that our body must maintain slightly alkaline to survive. Our blood ph level is 7.4 and the cellular fluid level is about 7.2. In spite of the fact that our cells produce acidic wastes constantly, our body fluids maintain an alkaline ph level to survive.
Our bodies work very hard to dispose of acidic waste. They are removed through urine and perspiration. Both of these have a low ph level. The acidic skin surface kills most germs and viruses that come in contact with it, even some AIDS viruses. Also when we exhale, releasing carbon dioxide, we are ridding of carbonic acid, which also causes acidic waste.
With all the effort our body gives to the removal of acid waste, we still make more waste than our body can get rid of. This is stored away in the body as solid waste. Since the blood has to carry the wastes away, it is necessary to convert the solid acid waste to liquid acid. If a substance is not dissolved into water, it does not influence
the ph level. Some types of solid acid are: cholesterol, fatty acid, kidney stones, etc…
Acid coagulates blood! This is the problem that comes from the accumulation of acid waste. Build of these acid wastes clogs your blood vessels and stops blood circulation. Our organs cannot function properly with out good blood flow to them. With out blood, our organs become mal-nourished and they begin to fail.
Even Cancer cells are acidic, so that means cancer cannot grow in an alkaline environment.
When phosphoric acid or sulfuric acid is created by the oxidation of nutrients, the strength of the acids is too strong for the body to handle. The body compensates by removing calcium from the bones. Well if you take the calcium from our bones, what are we using to hold ourselves up? That’s why 1-4 Americans have Osteoporosis.
By drinking our Antioxidant Alkaline Water you will receive antioxidants, alkalinity, smaller molecules for better absorption and more calcium.
