Inspiration: Cellular Respiration

Did you know that cells breathe? This process is known as cellular respiration. It allows the exchange of nutrients and waste products moving in and out of the cell. Glucose (sugar) is converted to water and carbon dioxide to provide energy for the cell and balance homeostasis. This takes place within the mitochondria. These mitochondria use enzymes as a catalyst for their transformation. Some enzymes, known as antioxidants, can neutralize waste compounds that are formed as a byproduct of energy production. 

Antioxidants have amazing healing potential and protect the body from damage done by oxidation from free radicals. Free radicals include reactive oxygen species (ROS), aka free radicals. While free radicals serve the purpose of destroying pathogens in the body, it can be harmful if there is too much oxidation in the body.  Their specific structure contains an unpaired electron that seeks to pair with antioxidants to neutralize the charge.

So, if we consume enough antioxidants, we can mitigate the risk of accumulating too many ROS “free radicals” and thereby prevent disease and damages.

When there is an imbalance of free radicals and antioxidants in the body, free radicals can begin to attack healthy cells. This can lead to premature cell death and damage. Free radicals can become overwhelming due to toxins in the environment from chemicals, pollution and radiation exposure.

While we cannot avoid all these triggers in modern times, we can take care to reduce our intake of harmful substances and exposure to chemicals. We can also choose to introduce more antioxidants to our system.

This Alkaline Water is Trash

I can’t condone littering on our beautiful beach but I will applaud whoever was willing to pay extra funds for this “alkaline” water in hopes of making a healthier choice.

Unfortunately, water in plastic bottles sits on shelves and leeches contaminants into the water. By the time someone drinks it, it’s definitely not fresh or springy.

Also, bottled alkaline water contains additives to increase the pH so it can be labeled as alkaline. You could get the same alkalinity by adding electrolytes, in this case potassium hydroxide, calcium chloride, and magnesium chloride. This is a chemical change in the water with “electrolytes added for taste”

This water attempts at what ionized water actually is: purified alkalyzed water. The ionizer I use and sell produces an electrical change in the water that not only raises the pH, but also contains the potent antioxidant molecular hydrogen. So, the machine I use isn’t only about alkaline, it’s more so about creating medicinal molecular hydrogen.

We can strive to eat an alkaline diet and keep our bodies balanced, but I’m sorry to say that spending extra money on bottled alkaline water definitely isn’t the pathway to improvements. Instead, invest in your longevity with a machine that is serviceable and built to last 25+ years, like a kitchen appliance you can take with you throughout life. When I move it moves, just like that!

Reach out if you are interested in health and improving the way you water. It’s clear this person cared about their health, but was misguided in their purchase. Can’t say the same about their carelessness for the planet, but hoping it was an accidental occurrence.

Please don’t trash our mama or your sacred vessel, if (it’s) possible.

Leave nothing behind, unless it’s chemically alkaline

What Are Free Radicals and How Can We Resolve Their Damage?

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.

11.5PH Water ~ Strong Kangen

11.5PH WATER aka STRONG KANGEN

1. GOOD NIGHT SLEEP: Drink 1/2-1 ounce of 11.5 before bedtime to help release Melatonin for a great night sleep

2. EYE WASH: Rinse eyes with an eye cup. Upon removing the eye cup from its packaging, soak in Strong Acid Water (pH 2.5) for 1-2 minutes to clean and disinfect. Rinse the eye cup thoroughly with Strong Alkaline Water (pH 11.5) Fill the cup, following package directions, with Strong Alkaline Water (pH 11.5) Place cup firmly around one eye, keeping your eye open, tilt your head back and gently roll your eye as though you were attempting to look up, down, and from side to side. Continue this for approximately 1 minute. Now that you have completed one eye, toss the water away. Rinse the eye cup thoroughly with Strong Acid Water (pH 2.5) Repeat steps for your other eye. To maintain healthy eyes follow this protocol 1-3 times per week. When working to improve any eye condition, follow this protocol at least 2 times daily and up to 10 times per day. 

3. GREASE IN EYE: Spray 11.5 as needed to soothe and heal eye. 

4. MAKE UP REMOVER: Spray on eyes to dissolve and remove make up. 

5. PUFFY EYES: Spray on to eyes to reduce puffiness. 

6. HOT BATH SOAK: Use one gallon of 11.5 added right at the end of filling the tub. This replaces Epsom Salts or any other remedy. This works even better if you have the Anespa from Enagic. 

7. ALLERGIES, COLD SYMPTOMS, SNORING: Use as a nasal wash when sinuses are plugged. Due to the reduction in inflammation of nasal passages this technique can also reduce snoring! 

8. BUG SPRAY REPELLENT, SUNBURN, PAIN, BUG BITES, SWELLING: Spray or soak areas with towel soaked in 11.5 and keep wet by adding small amounts of 11.5 to the towel for a minimum of 30 minutes twice a day...better if one hour twice daily. 

9. HEAT BURN, INDIGESTION, FOOD POISONING, STOMACH FLU: Drink ¼ cup FRESH 11.5 immediately followed by 25 ounces of 9.5 then do not eat or drink anything for 45 minutes. Repeat the next day only if necessary. 

10. ARTHRITIS, GOUT, MUSCLE SORENESS OR TISSUE INJURIES: Since high alkalinity draws out acids, you can utilize 11.5 to soak in to “pull out” acids associated with inflammation, injury and pain. 

11. HANGOVERS & MIGRAINES: can prevent hangovers, as soon as you feel migraine coming on, drink several oz. 

12. CHEMOTHERAPY: Drink the water with chemotherapy. The benefits are that side effects are lessened, it reverses metabolic acidosis, and the antioxidants are good for any point on chemo. Put 11.5 on the skin twice a day for burns from chemo. 

13. STROKE: Drink as much as able if feel a stroke coming on to provide potent alkalinity to overcome severe acidosis causing the stroke. 

14. FRUITS & VEGGIES: Soak for a minimum of 5 minutes to clean off pesticides. 

15. ICE CUBES: To help off-set acidic drinks. 

16. RICE, BEAN, LEGUMES: Soak for 5 to 10 minutes and rinse clean with low flow 9.5. 

17. MEATS: Soak all for 5 to 10 minutes for cleaning and tenderizing. 

18. LAUNDRY SOAP: Use 1 to 2 quarts per load in place of laundry soap. Works beautifully for greasy smells like Fast-food Restaurant work clothes. 

19. STAINS ON CLOTHES, RUGS, CARPETS: Use as a degreaser for any type of cleaning. Clean oil based stains by soaking the area and letting sit for 10 to 20 minutes and then blot out of carpets and wash if laundry stain as mentioned in step 17. 

20. CLEAN OVEN, CLOGGED SINKS & TUBS, REPLACE 409 CLEANER & DRANO: Clean with a scratch pad. Replaces 409 cleaner when dissolving grease and grime in kitchen. Use instead of Drano or other chemicals for clogged sinks and bathtubs. 

21. POLISH SILVER: Soak and polish. 

22. PAINT THINNER: After using oil base paints, use to clean up. 

23. USE INSTEAD OF “GOO GONE”: Removes greasy, gooey, gummy, sticky problems.

What is Kangen Water ~ Magic Water?

What is *Magic* Kangen Water?

"Kangen water machines are medical grade in home water ionizer machines that produce 7 different levels of custom pH water that is rich in active molecular hydrogen and powerful anti-oxidant properties. Molecular hydrogen attacks free radicals in the body and promotes anti-aging (anti-oxidation.) Hydrogen is the smallest molecule in the universe, which is why its bioavailability is so great. It’s also neutral, so it can easily penetrate any membrane space in your body and contribute to detoxification.Hydrogen is shown to benefit every organ of the human body, effectively mitigating oxidative stress and inflammation. It also has a very unique antioxidant effect that specifically targets only the most harmful free radicals in our bodies. 

In addition to this, the water is micro-clustered (with means it is more hydrating than any bottled or tap water available to us) and filters out Chlorine from our tap water. Additional pre-filters can be easily added to the Kangen machine based on the water quality of your specific area/location. 

The water can be used in many different ways around your home/kitchen/medicine cabinet and is a great addition to any skin/beauty care regiment. It is safe to ingest as well as use topically on your skin.

The machine produces three different levels of Kangen drinking water, 8.0pH, 8.5 pH, and 9.5 pH which hydrate the body on a deep cellular level and taste/feel amazing. 

The machine produces 7.0pH Neutral water which is safe for infants, children and anyone taking time-sensitive or time-release medication. Although this water is not high pH, it still contains powerful anti-oxidant properties and active molecular hydrogen which is dope. 

The 6.0 pH beauty water produced by the machine is the level of water with pH most similar to the pH of our skin. This makes the water easily absorbed by our pores, rather than repelled by them and acts as a powerful toner/moisturizer for our largest organ, the skin. The 6.0 pH is almost the closest pH to rain water in nature, so household plants, gardens and crops benefit tremendously from being fed 6.0 pH beauty water. 

The 11.0-11.5pH water is a powerful anti-inflammatory water due its to high pH. This water can be ingested in small amounts, or used as a soak for to relieve pain from any joint or muscle inflammation/swelling. The 11.5 is also able to emulsify oils, which means it is highly effective at removing all oil-based pesticides, herbicides and insecticides off of our organic and non organic fruits and veg. There are a multitude of ways to use the 11.5 water as listed in the "68 ways to use Kangen" document. 

The 2.5 strong acidic pH Kangen water has a low pH and acts as a disinfectant that is safe to use for our bodies/skin/home. The water has been used in the medical and food industry for years to sanitize and disinfect due to its high negative oxidation reduction potential, which has been shown to reduce bacteria cells in fruits, vegetables and our skin. The 2.5 water can be used in a PLETHORA of ways, also mentioned in the "68 ways to use Kangen water" document.”
