The Basics of Water Ionization
Water ionization uses electrolysis to change the chemical structure of water, separating it into alkaline and acidic components with different properties and uses.
Step-by-Step Process
Step 1: Filtration
Water passes through a high-quality filter that removes chlorine, sediment, and impurities before entering the ionization chamber.
Step 2: Electrolysis
Filtered water flows through platinum-coated titanium electrode plates. An electrical current separates water molecules into alkaline and acidic streams.
Step 3: Separation
The ionized water is separated into two streams. Alkaline water exits one spout for drinking, while acidic water exits separately for external use.
Key Concepts
pH
pH measures acidity vs alkalinity on a scale of 0-14. Kangen machines produce water from pH 2.5 to 11.5.
ORP
ORP measures antioxidant potential. Ionized water has negative ORP, meaning it acts as an antioxidant.
Micro-Clustering
Electrolysis breaks water into smaller molecular clusters for potentially better absorption by the body.
Why Enagic Machines Are Different
Enagic uses continuous ionized electrolysis and medical-grade platinum-coated titanium plates manufactured in Japan for consistent, high-quality results.
