Antioxidants and Ionized Water
Ionized Water contains high levels of molecular hydrogen, a potent antioxidant. Instead of allowing free radicals to wreak havoc in the body and cause damage via disease over time, Kangen Water combats illness by neutralizing free radicals. How?
Free Radical damage creates aging in the body and leads to disease. The water ionizers create hydrogen-rich water that are easily absorbed by the body, making it one of the most powerful antioxidants available. Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe and our bodies contain hydrogen naturally, so Ionized Water acts as a supplemental formula for healing.
As the filtered water is ionized, the water is electrically charged to create a plethora of hydroxyl ions. These hydroxyl ions are oxygen molecules containing an extra electron. This extra electron is what is donated to free radicals to turn them into h2o, hydrating water.
In summary, free radicals are missing an electron and therefore are causing damage to cells in the body and could cause disease. Hydrogen water as an antioxidant hydroxyl ion is able to donate its free electron to the damaged free radical cell. When this takes place and the electron connects with the free radical, the former free radical is now changed to h2o aka hydrating water!
In this way, we are healing the body by restoring balance within the cells and establishing a baseline of hydration at the deepest level.
