Water Ionizers
Water ionizers use
electrolysis to split water molecules into positive and negative
hydrogen and oxygen molecules.
Water ionizers use electrolysis to split
water molecules into positive and negative hydrogen and oxygen
molecules. The negative water is alkaline and is used for drinking. The
positive water is acidic and is used
outside the body. The term “oxygen reduction potential,” or ORP, is used
to measure the change in
millivolts (mV).
Exactly how water ionizers change the clusters that make up water is not
fully understood. One theory is
that, as a filter removes most of the contaminants in the water, the
amount of water is reduced, and most of
the minerals, such as calcium and magnesium, in the alkaline portion of
the water have a negative charge.
As they are more evenly spaced, the water clusters become condensed. Not
all scientists accept this
theory, and more research needs to be done.
However, using NMR spectroscopy, it has been proven that electrolysis
does change and condense water
clusters. The resulting water is easier to absorb because there are
fewer contaminants and the minerals
are closer to one another. The alkaline portion of the water is an
antioxidant and the acidic portion is an
oxidizing astringent.
