There are these little things called ions. Water contains two types of the little guys: H plus and OH ions. If there are more H plus ions present in a water, it becomes more acidic. If the opposite is true and there’s more OH ions, the liquid becomes alkaline.
What has this got to do with a water ionizer machine? The clue is in the name. In simple terms, a water ‘ionizer’ machine puts more of the good OH ions into the water you drink. This makes the H20 alkaline, and as we should all know by now, the right type of alkaline water can be very beneficial to your health.
It’s not just the alkalinity of a water though that makes it healthy. Those good OH ions also have the effect of packing the water with health-boosting antioxidants, and it’s these antioxidants that make the water good for you. This is also where a water ionizer machine earns its stripes: it uses electrolysis to stimulate the natural effect of energy from the sun to make water which is very antioxidant.
This same process is best observed in natural spring water, which is the best type of water you could possibly guzzle down. Energy from the sun is converted into OH ions, boosting the alkalinity and antioxidant properties of the spring water. This process is the reason why people erroneously believe that they can enjoy the full health benefits of these healthy natural waters by drinking it in bottled form. Unfortunately, bottled spring water, or mineral water, just isn’t the same. Because it’s been through a filtration process and has been stuck in a bottle, it loses its alkalinity, becoming acidic. And another thing it loses is its anti-oxidative properties.
With a water ionizer machine, you can side-step these pitfalls entirely, and get the next best thing to that heaven-sent, health boosting natural spring water we all crave.
So, mimicking the energy that comes from the sun, a water ionizer machine uses electrolysis to deliver alkaline antioxidant water direct to our taps. And it is this type of health-boosting water that our body needs in an increasingly polluted environment. The free radicals that damage our cells from pollution, smoking, bad eating habits and lack of exercise are neutralized by antioxidant water.
Not only that, but by helping to lower the overall number of harmful free radicals inside of us, drinking from a water ionizer machine regularly can help ward off diseases like diabetes, osteoarthritis, cancer and help fight the effects of obesity and thyroid problems, which all only deteriorate through high levels of oxidative stress.
If that is not reason enough to convince you why you need alkaline ionized water inside of you, there is also its immune system boosting qualities as antioxidant water helps remove acidic water from your tissues. By drinking the stuff regularly, you’ll be detoxifying your whole body, helping you to sleep better to boot. And we could all do with better sleep.
You can buy a water ionizer machine that sits conveniently next to your sink on your countertop. Some of the best selling brands include the Tyent Turbo Extreme, EOS Genesis Platinum and Platinum 9 models, Life 7700, or the Jupiter Athena. Prices on some of the top models can be very competitive – the Genesis Platinum ionizer machine, for example, starts from $1695, which is less than half the price of Tyent Turbo Extreme units which will set you back $3495.
They all need ample power for proper ionization, with the better units requiring 300+ watts of power (the Jupiter Athena has a max wattage of only 80 watts). Another thing that you should look for on good water ionizer machines is the plates that are used for electrolysis. All the models above have at least 7 plates, aside from the Jupiter Athena, which has 5. You’ll find top slotted platinum titanium plate tech on only the EOS Genesis models. This same unit also boasts the most settings to deliver exactly the type of ionized water you desire. The EOS Genesis Models have 76 settings – including four alkaline,four acidic and one setting for filtering water only. And with these machines, the more the better.
Whichever machine you buy, a good water ionizer machine is going to give you the next best thing to health-boosting natural spring water. Surely, something we could all drink more of.
To your health,
