What's In Your Water?

Bottled water is not created equal!

Kangen Water 101

Picture
Our journey started in the first half of 2011.  My daughter Morgan was on a medication for narcolepsy that was causing her body to become acidic and dehydrated.  Even drinking a gallon of filtered water a day was not making any difference.  After having two UTI's in five months and blood work done to show her high acid levels and dehydration, she was at her wits end. 

At the time this was going on she was doing pedicures on a client that's home bound with MS.  Morgan had noticed that for the last 8 months her ankles went from swollen and dry to normal.  She commented on it and was told that the woman has been drinking Kangen water and how she's been able to go off her diuretic and anti inflammatory drugs because of it.  Morgan shared her health issues and problems with dehydration and how much water she was drinking but still couldn't seem to hydrate enough.

She gave Morgan a jug of water to take home, which we thought was odd, but she did and we drank it.  Obviously she didn't experience any miracle change but we both noticed how much better it tasted even from our filtered water.  So Morgan researched Kangen water and we started picking up the water and eventually we went to a meeting that explained even more. 

We found out that Kangen water is a multi level marketing tool. We weren't real crazy about finding that out but we'd not been approached to buy a machine, only drink the water.  We continued to go to the store at 41st and Peoria every other day and picking up two gallons of water.  We did this for about 2 months.  In that time she didn't have a UTI and her bodies hydration was noticeably different.

We were so impressed with the results we were both getting that we decided to buy a machine, so we started saving.  By the first week in January 2012, we were able to get our own machine and I can tell you, since the day we received it, we've experienced even greater results.

Morgan had also noticed an increase of hair loss by as much as 50% and after researching the side effects of the drug she was on, she decided to go off the drug the last week of December 2011.  The drug, Adderall was known to cause dehydration and hair loss.  What we learned was that most drugs cause the body to become acidic, which is the cause of dehydration, which in turn causes all kinds of health problems.

Since we started drinking the Kangen water, she's been experiencing better sleep patterns.  And since we are getting fresh water at the touch of a button, even now without her medication, she has more energy and alertness.  Not quite like the amphetamine was doing but more like a normal person.  A month after having a machine she's seeing new hairs sprouting out as well. 

I'm not saying this is making her hair grow so much as having her body better hydrated and not constantly in an acidic state is allowing her hair to come back in.

We've also changed the way we eat and drink.  We avoid, as much as we can, acid causing drinks and food and try to eat more alkaline enriched fruits and vegetables.  When you think it takes 32 glasses of pH 9.5 water to counter the effects of one can of soda, it's easy to avoid.


So what exactly is Kangen Water and why is it good for you?

Picture
Kangen Water is a negative ion based water than can be produced in an alkaline form or an acid form. (For more on this see a Kangen Water Chart)

The Kangen water filtration system differs from regular filtered water in that retains our bodies much needed minerals, eliminating harmful toxins such as chlorine, lead and pesticides, while charging the water with oxygen.  It also has the capability to produce five different levels of pH water which serves many uses.  The most important aspect of a higher pH water is to help bring our bodies up to the much needed 7.3 pH level on the inside.

The human body is anywhere from 55% to 78% water depending on age, gender and amount of body fat.  With these percentages you can see why water is essential to human life.

Our bodies are more acidic

Picture
Most of our diets in the U.S. consist mainly of sugars, flours, sodas and meats that have the pH producing levels well below 7.3.  Our tap water alone has a pH of between 5-6 even when filtered.  Bottled water, even though purified, is below the 7.3 level and that's only if it's a pure spring water and not reverse osmosis. (Reverse osmosis water, like distilled water, has been reduced to the the basic form eliminating not only toxins but much needed minerals as well.  Over a period of time it begins to leach minerals from your body.)


Another factor of Kangen Water

Picture
Another aspect of Kangen Water is the oxygenation level.  When producing Kangen water the molecules are actually reduced in size, making the water more easily absorbed into the body.  The more oxygen in your blood, the healthier the cells.(Reports now link cancer cells as being oxygen deprived) Since our brain has a slightly higher percentage of water than the body (77-78%), they're also finding that's dehydration, caused from acidic bodies, is now linked with dementia and Alzheimer's. So the more water that can be absorbed into our body, and not just pass through, can benefit any number of things, not just the pH level but oxygen and hydration as well.

I like to use word pictures when explaining the molecule size. A normal molecule cluster has 10-12 molecules where as the structure of the Kangen water clusters are as little as 5-6 molecules.  To put it simply, a normal molecule is about the size of a baseball as compared to a Kangen molecule being about like a marble.  Which do you think would more easily pass through a chain link fence?  Obviously the marble would and that's exactly what Kangen water does when hydrating your body. 

How do I know that the molecules are so small?  By using an ORP meter (Oxygen Reduction Potential), liquids can be measured on a positive or negative scale.  Bottled water or tap water ranges anywhere from a positive number of 200-400 where as a 9.5 pH in Kangen water reads a negative 700-800.  The more negative the number the more oxygen potential for your body.  The more positive the water, the more your body is deprived of oxygen resulting in dehydration.

If your body is dehydrated you're probably acidic.  An acidic body shows in any number of ways including, but not limited to, headaches, fatigue, hair loss, memory loss, joint pain, kidney stones or UTI's, and swelling. 

How can you make your body go from acid to a more healthy balance of a 7.3 pH?  By drinking a higher alkaline water containing a higher absorption potential, like oxygen.  A Kangen Water machine can produce as high as an 11.5, for cleaning or meat tenderizing, to a 7-9.5 for drinking purposes, down to a 2.5 for disinfecting.  The wide range of pH water can fill any health or household need.


How can you get this water?

Picture
Option number one...

Visit our new store, located on 61st between Memorial and Mingo and bring a container of your choice and fill it free of charge.  If you don't have an empty container, you may purchase a gallon plastic container for $2 or an amber glass jug for $10.  Then all you do is bring it back and keep refilling.

What's the catch?  Nothing at all.  But I'll tell you from my own experience, driving to get water every other day really got old.  We saw results, enough to save for our own machine, but driving  8-10 miles every other day was a hassle.  It was worth the effort but it didn't make it any less of a drag to do.  We knew that for us to see results we had to get fresh, 9.5 water, every 48 hours.  After that time you lose your oxygen and the alkalinity level drops.  After having a machine in our home for the past month, there is really no words to describe the difference of having fresh alkaline water at the touch of a button.  We're seeing even greater results now. 

Option number two...buy your own machine.


The Kangen Water Machines

Picture
The Kangen water machine conveniently connects to your kitchen faucet and generates five types of water. The fully featured LCD screen is simple to operate. The most popular model, the SD 501, provides additional stable oxygen, better micro clustering, and higher negative ORP levels.  Like all 501 models, the SD 501 uses innovative electrolysis technology with seven platinum coated 99.97% pure titanium electrolyte plates. 

What exactly is the purpose for the titanium plates?  Imagine a swiftly flowing mountain river, tumbling over the river bed rocks.  As the water surges over the rocks it's charging the water with negative ions and creating oxygen to build up in the water.  Just like the river water, the water in the Kangen machine is doing the same thing as it passes over the titanium plates. The more plates, the higher the oxygen level

The stiller the water the more it loses it's alkalinity and oxygen because it doesn't have any motion to create it.  Now you can understand why lake and pond water is unhealthy to drink without the proper filtration system.  We do not get our water from a mountain stream so how does it get any alkalinity to it?  Our drinking water that we get from the tap is treated with lye to raise the alkalinity so our city pipes won't rust.  Chlorine is also added to kill bacteria.  Have you had a glass of pool water lately?  I think I'll pass.


What are you looking at in cost?

Picture
The smallest model, the SUNUS, has 3 plates, a 3 year warranty, with 120 watts of power and goes only up to a -350 mV in ORP's.  $1280

The next model, the JRll, also has 3 plates, a 3 year warranty and with 120 watts of power and an increase of ORP's to -450 mV, costing $2380.

The third model, the DXll, has 5 plates, a 3 year warranty and with 200 watts of power and an ORP of -600mV.  $3300

The most popular model, the SD501 has 7 plates, a 5 year warranty and with 230 watts of power and an ORP of -800mV.  $3980. An increase of plates from 5-7 ORP's 33% and will prolong the life of the unit 28%.

The Super501 has 12 plates, a 3 year warranty and with 230 watts of power and an ORP of -800mV.  $5980. This model is more for heavy home use, nursing homes, hospitals, and spas.

If buying a machine outright is not an option... Enagic will finance a machine for you at no interest, with only a $10 monthly fee for 16 months. 

For example, the SD501 costs $3980.  After tax of $338.97 and the 16 month fees of $160 your balance is $4478.97.  The required 16 month individual payments are $225 each so you'd need a downpayment of $878.97.  You may put more down but the payments are still $225 a month.  You'd just be paying it off sooner than 16 months and if you pay it off by 6 months they give you $100 back from the fees.

Obviously each model differs in price, tax and monthly payments so each one would have to be figured individually.  I gave the SD501 as an example because that is the most popular model.
