70% of Human Body is Water! We are Water in Motion
83% of blood, 75% of brain, 72% of skin, and 90% of cells of human body are composed of water. As shown in the chart below, the type, quality, and quantity of water directly decides the quality of our blood, cell, skin, and health. As air and nutrition are indispensable for sustaining life, water is essential as well.
Normal tap water goes through the first filter to filter out contaminants and pollutants. Second, the purified water is inserted into the electrolysis chamber, which plays the role of a car engine. Inside the electrolysis chamber, the SMPS system separately generates positive pole and negative pole of electrode. Water containing negatively charged molecules are so called ‘alkaline water’ with reducing power. Ionized Alkaline Water, which helps treating four major gastroenteric troubles such as indigestion, intestinal dysbiosis, chronic diarrhea, and hyperacidity, is verified by KFDA for its reliability, safety, and validity.
Water(H2O) is a cluster of hydrogen bonded molecules of hydrogen ion(H+) and hydroxide ion(OH-) in tetrahedral structure. Normal water contains ions such as Ca+, Mg+, Na+, K+, CI-.S-, or P-. When these molecules are electrolyzed, the cathode(-) liberates hydrogen gas which generates rich hydroxyl ions (ph level 7.5~11) and minerals such as Ca+, Mg+, and K+

Drinking alkaline ionized water is the fastest and most efficient way to alkalize our body. Most of us tend to be over acidic in our body. The food that we eat burns with oxygen in our cells to produce energy (metabolism). After burning, the food becomes acid wastes and the cells dump them into the bloodstream. Our body tries its best to get rid of these wastes through urination, respiration, and perspiration. Unfortunately, most of our bodies cannot get rid of all the wastes as quickly as we wish. The major hindrances include our lifestyle (lack of rest and exercise), our diet (too many meats, processed foods, carbonated drinks, and alcohol), and our polluted environment (with huge amounts of free radicals in the air and water) that destroys much of our healthy cells daily. If these wastes are not flushed out, they are stored somewhere in our body. In order to stay alive, our blood and cells must always remain slightly alkaline. What happens when we have too much acid wastes?
Well, the body does two things to stay alive. First, it can draw on the alkaline reserves stored in our body and the easiest would be to ‘steal’ the calcium from our bones to neutralize the over-acid balance. Another way is for our internal buffering system to convert these acid wastes into solid wastes. You see, when these acid wastes are solidified, they can be packed away easily without affecting the pH of the rest of the body. These acid wastes can be stored in many places, including body fats. Increased fats production can be a result of increased acid waste demands for storage. So less acid wastes fewer fats needed! You are about to find out that it is not fats that make you fat, it is the acid! Drinking alkaline ionized water is the fastest and most efficient way to alkalize our body. We are meant to be alkaline on the inside of our bodies and that is the reason why our nutritionists and dietitians are nagging us to have ‘vegetables and fruits daily
Alkaline water helps in weight management
when our body becomes over-acidic, fats become a friend, not a foe! Acid waste travels throughout the body in the blood and due to the high amount of acidic food and drinks we consume daily, the acid waste is being parked in fatty deposits instead of being eliminated via the kidney and liver as it should be. These fatty deposits are stored as far away from our vital organs as possible; hence the weight gain that typically occurs on the chest, buttocks, thighs, and belly. To look at it one way: this fat is saving our lives by protecting our body’s vital organs from damaging acid waste. The more acid waste we have the more parking spaces (fats) we need to store them away in order for our blood to remain slightly alkaline. So in essence, it is acid that makes us fat not fats! How then can we rid these acid wastes from our body? The nature of alkaline ionized water with much smaller water cluster size penetrates effectively and very quickly into these acid blocks (they can also become roadblocks that clog our blood capillaries), disintegrating and flushing them out of our joints and muscles, our thighs and buttocks, and even out of our head (migraines or headaches are symptoms of over-acidity in our body!). Alkaline water helps to flush out these acid blocks allowing fat cells to be eliminated quickly and effectively from our body. Weight loss is almost inevitable if you’re eating a healthy diet and drinking alkaline ionized water. Research has also shown that overweight individuals have a lower percentage of total water content than individuals who maintain a healthy weight. So make sure you drink to hydrate your body and drinking alkaline water is the best choice for health and for beauty! promote alkalinity in our bodies.
Alkaline water enhances detoxification
Alkaline water has the high energy capacity and the ability to easily dissolve and get rid of harmful acidic waste that accumulates in tissues and organs. As our body works to keep us alive, it’s process within produces waste that can cause severe acidification of our tissues and organs if not eliminated. With enhanced negative ions produced by ionization through electrolysis, coupled with the property of smaller water cluster for penetration, we have found that the alkaline water has the high energy capacity and the ability to easily dissolve and get rid of harmful acidic waste that accumulates in tissues and organs. Studies have shown that within a short span of ninety days, various patients experience better digestion. Colonoscopies also yield images that show a drastic before and after, where the cleansing is apparent. The ‘before’ picture illustrates an intestinal wall that is caked with accumulated waste, while the ‘after’ picture shows a colon that is healthy and free of acidic waste. Our digestive tract is extremely important to our body, and by cleansing our colons by consuming alkaline ionized water, we are helping to improve the general functionality of our bodies.
Alkaline water super-hydrates our skin
Less wrinkles, no more scaling and a much younger you! Most of us are dehydrated and we don’t even know it! When our wrinkles show or when we see scaling on our arms or legs, we immediately think of applying moisturizer on our skin. But the root of the problem is under the skin. You should read ‘Your Body’s Many Cries for Water’ by F. Batmanghelidj, M.D., his book will help you understand the vital importance of water for health and for beauty. Not all water helps to hydrate our body efficiently. Take distilled water for example. This water is dead and devoid of all minerals. It is very acidic and will tend to dehydrate you. You see, alkaline water, made using electrolysis, has smaller water cluster size that penetrates into our cells much faster, hydrating us faster from within. In addition, it carries the nutrients and oxygen to our cells more efficiently and removes acidic cellular waste with greater effectiveness. We have received several testimonies of ladies who suffer from dry skin and even scaling on their legs. But after consuming alkaline water for a month, they experience the difference of a younger looking skin without having to pay for the expensive
moisturizers.
Alkaline water is rich in ions and has a much higher content of oxygen and alkaline minerals due to the ionization process.
When ionized water is consumed, the cellular water environment improves within the human body.
Alkaline water is rich in ions and has a much higher content of oxygen and alkaline minerals due to the ionization process. When we take a walk in the park, we feel refreshed and energized because of the abundance of ions produced by the green around us. When ionized water is consumed, the cellular water environment improves within the human body in the same way. This leads to better health and overall well-being. Drinking alkaline water rejuvenates us daily.
Alkaline water slows down Aging
Alkaline ionized water made using electrolysis produces the much smaller cluster of water molecules.
It penetrates faster, bringing along the nutrients and oxygen needed by the cells.
It also helps to bring out the toxins and the wastes out of our cells with greater effectiveness.
Drinking alkaline water helps sending the antibodies that created by our immune system quickly and effectively into our cells.
Eczema
Prof. Tamura Tatsuji, Keifuku Rehabilitation Center, Japan
“Eczema is used to describe several varieties of skin conditions, which have a number of common features. The exact cause or causes of eczema are not fully understood. In many cases, eczema can be attributed by external irritants.
Let me introduce a patient who recovered from skin disease after consuming the ionized water. This patient suffered 10 years of eczema and could not be cured effectively even under specialist treatment. This patient, who is 70 years of age, is the President of a vehicle spare parts company. After the war, his lower limbs suffer acute eczema, which later became chronic. He was repeatedly treated in a specialist skin hospital.
The left limb responded well to treatment, but not so on the right limb. He suffered severe itchiness, which, when scratched led to bleeding. During the last 10 years, he was seen and treated by many doctors. When I first examined him, his lower limb around the joints was covered with vesicles. Weeping occurred owing to serum exuding from the vesicles.
I advised him to try consuming ionized water. He bought a unit and consumed the ionized water religiously and used the acidic water to bathe the affected areas. After 2 weeks of treatment, the vesicles dried up. The eczema was completely cleared without any relapse after 1 1/2 month.”
Allergy
Prof. Tamura Tatsuji, Keifuku Rehabilitation Center, Japan
“Mr. Yamada, the head of Police Research Institute, suffered from severe allergy. He was treated repeatedly by skin specialist, but with no success. Then he started consuming ionized water. The allergy responded very well and was soon completely cured. No relapse had occurred, although he had taken all kinds of food. He was most grateful and excited about this treatment.
As for myself, I had also suffered severe allergy. Ever since I began to consume ionized water, the allergy has recovered. Since then, I started a research on the effectiveness of ionized water.
I discovered that most allergies are due to acidification of body condition and is also related to consuming too much meat and sugar. In every allergy case, the patient’s antioxidant minerals are excessively low which in turn lower the body resistance significantly. The body becomes overly sensitive and develops allergy easily. To stabilize the sensitivity, calcium solution is injected into the vein. Therefore, it is clear that the ionized water has ionic calcium, which can help alleviate allergy.
The ionic calcium not only enhances the heart, urination, and neutralization of toxins but controls acidity. It also enhances the digestive system and liver function. This will promote natural healing power and hence increase its resistance to allergy. In some special cases of illness, which do not respond to drugs, it is found, it is found to respond well to ionized water.”
Diarrhea
Dr. Testsuji Hokudou, Director of Gastroenterology, National Ohkura Hospital
According to double-blind clinical tests comparing effects against various disorders, alkaline ionized water showed significantly more cases of effective results against chronic diarrhea than clean water group. Alkaline ionized water was effective in 94.1% of the volunteers.

Alkaline Ionized water helps promote osteogenesis
Metabolic disorder of calcium is considered to be one of the causes of osteoporosis that has an increasing number of cases these days. Therefore, we conducted a series of tests by feeding rats with different amounts of calcium and gave them tap water, calcium lactate solution and alkaline ionized water at leisure. According to examination of their bone and blood composition, osteogenesis rate was found in the ascending order of tap water, calcium lactate solution, and alkaline ionized water.
Especially under the condition of low calcium levels in the feed, alkaline ionized water was considered to great effects on improved osteogenesis.
Constipation
Dr. Testsuji Hokudou, Director of Gastroenterology,
National Ohkura Hospital
Alkaline ionized water and clean water was given to 163 volunteers who suffered from abdominal discomfort at the amount of 500ml per day for four weeks.
Overall rate of improvement was significantly higher for those who were given alkaline ionized water.
As a result of comparative double blind clinical tests, alkaline ionized water was proved to be effective against constipation, and most importantly its’ safety was verified. It is considered a departure for using medication where side effects are unavoidable to a certain extent.
The effectiveness of alkaline ionized water is very high at 80.5%.
Gout / Arthritis
“Many different forms of arthritis and gout are the result of acid accumulation in the joints. Heavy people add more pressure on their joints, thus speeding up wear and tear; however, a young person seems to do fine even if he is heavy. It is the accumulated acid that damages cartilages and irritates the joints. Unfortunately, the joints are where the blood cannot carry out wastes easily.
Gout is the accumulation of uric acid in the joints. According to Webster, gout is a disease resulting from a disturbance of metabolism, characterized by an excess of uric acid in the blood and deposits of uric acid salts in the tissues around the joints, especially of the feet and hands: it causes swelling and severe pain, especially in the big toe.
In today’s medicine, there is no effective treatment for these types of degenerative diseases. Because it is painful, one instinctively takes pain killers; however, aspirin types are acidic and they can further irritate the joints.
The sooner we accept the fact that these diseases are the result of too much acidic waste, the sooner we will find the cure for these problems.” Page 58 of Dr. Sang Whang’s book “Reverse Aging”.
Alkaline Water Dissolves More Uric Acid
Since uric acid is one of the primary contributing factors to the painful symptoms experienced by gout sufferers. Therefore, controlling the production of this substance is key to getting symptoms under control. One of the techniques that are now being used to accomplish this is by changing the pH level of the body in order to manipulate its uric acid production.
pH stands for the power of hydrogen and refers to the acidity level in the body. That is, when the pH levels of the body are raised, it becomes more alkaline, while lowering pH levels makes the body more acidic.
Therefore, by raising the pH levels in your body, you are effectively putting into practice a natural gout treatment. The theory behind this is that by making the body more alkaline, the uric acid levels will be reduced.
This is because uric acid can be diluted by drinking water, and the more alkaline the body is, the more water-soluble uric acid becomes. And so, the higher the ratio of alkaline to acid in the body, that is, the higher the pH level of the body (or the number on the pH scale) the more alkaline your body will be, and the more uric acid will be dissolved into the water you drink.
If the uric acid level of the body is kept below a certain level (6.0mg/dL for men and slightly less than that for women) then gout crystal formation will be much less likely to occur. IN order to make your body more alkaline, the most commonly recommended technique is to drink alkaline (ionized) water. This is water that has additional OH oxygen as opposed to O2. You can drink it or cook with it.
Diabetes
The first clinical test conducted in Korea shows that water can control diseases!
3 December 2003: The Natural Medicine Research Institute of Hansuh University had invited 15 patients suffering from diabetes and started a clinical test for them.
The scientists divided the patients into two different groups; they stopped insulin treatment completely for the first group of the patients, and they had them drink the Ionized Water (ARW) instead, and the other group of diabetics had been allowed to continue their hospital treatment as well with receiving insulin as usual.
The blood glucose levels have been lowered on the whole, and the blood glucose levels, which had shown wide variations daily before were being stabilized. But the blood glucose levels for those who had not taken the Ionized Water (ARW) but continued receiving insulin everyday under the hospitalized state continued to show wide variations with their blood glucose level.
7 January 2004: Comparison of blood glucose levels before and after experiment conducted. 5 litters ARW/day administered for the 2nd group of patients.
A significant decrease of blood glucose levels for all patients on AKW. Some examples are:
1. Patient Lee, 14 years old, blood glucose level: 250 After drinking the Reduced Water for 36 days: blood glucose level: 204
2. Patient Hwang, 17 years old, blood glucose level: 254 After drinking the Reduced Water for 36 days: blood glucose level:144
3. Patient Lee2, 9 years old, blood glucose level: 324 After drinking the Reduced Water for 36 days: blood glucose level: 210
4. Patient Lee3: 20 years old, blood glucose level: 400 After drinking the Reduced Water for 36 days: blood glucose level: 168
The experiments indicated that the effectiveness of Ionized Water (ARW) was better than insulin.
Prof. Kuwata Keijiroo, Doctor of Medicine, Japan
“When I was serving in the Fire Insurance Association, I used to examine many diabetic patients. Besides treating them with drugs, I provided them with ionized water. After drinking ionized water for one month, 15 diabetic patients were selected and sent to Tokyo University for further test and observations.
Initially, the more serious patients were a bit apprehensive about the treatment. When the ionized water was consumed for some time, the sugar in the blood and urine ranged from a ratio of 300 mg/l to 2 mg/ dc. There was a time where the patient had undergone 5 to 6 blood tests a day and detected to be within normal range. Results also showed that even 1 1/2 hour after meals, the blood sugar and urine ratio was 100 mg/dc 0 mg/dc. The sugar in the urine has completely disappeared.”
NOTE: More Americans than ever before are suffering from diabetes, with the number of new cases averaging almost 800,000 each year. The disease has steadily increased in the United States since 1980, and in 1998, 16 million Americans were diagnosed with diabetes (10. million diagnosed, 5.4 million undiagnosed) Diabetes is the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, and more than 193,000 died from the disease and its related complication in 1996. The greatest increase-76 percent occurred in people age 30 to 30.

Weight Management
Prof. Hatori Tasutaroo, Head of Akajiuiji Blood Centre, Yokohama Hospital, Faitama District
“Due to a higher standard of living, our eating habits have changed. We consume too much proteins, fats and sugar. The excess fats and carbohydrates are in the body as fats. In the present lifestyles, Americans are more extravagant a food compared to the Japanese. Due to this excessive intake obesity is a significant problem. Normally, one out of five males and one out of four females are obese.
The degree of “burn-out” in food intake largely depends on the amount on intake of vitamins and minerals. When excessive intake of proteins, carbohydrates and fats occurs, the requirement for vitamins and minerals increases. However, there is not much research carried out pertaining to the importance of vitamins and minerals.
Nowadays, many people suffer from acidification that leads to diabetes, heart diseases, cancer, liver and kidney diseases. If our food intake can be completely burned off, then there is no deposition of fats. Obviously, there will be no acidification problem and hence there should not be any sign of obesity.
The ionized water contains an abundance of ionic calcium. This ionic calcium helps in the “burn-off” process. By drinking ionized water, it provides sufficient minerals for our body. As a result, we do not need to watch our diet to stay slim.
Hence, ionized water is a saviour for those differing from obesity and many adult diseases, providing good assistance in enhancing hood health.”
High Cholesterol
Prof. Kuninaka Hironage, Head of Kuninaka Hospital
“Too many fats in the diets, which lead to the deposition of cholesterol on the blood vessels, which in turn constrict the blood flow, cause most illnesses such as high blood pressure. In accordance with the theory of Professor Gato of Kyushu University on Vitamin K (because vitamin K enables the blood calcium to increase), or the consumption of more antioxidant water, the effectiveness of the increase in the calcium in high blood pressure is most significant.
The consumption of alkaline antioxidant water for a period of 2 to 3 months, I have observed the blood pressure slowly drop, due to the water’s solvent ability, which dissolves the cholesterol in the blood vessels.”
“For over 10 years of my experience, my concept toward minerals, especially pertaining to ionic calcium in high blood pressure and other diseases is most significant. In accordance to the theory of medical Professor Gato of Kyushu University on Vitamin K (because vitamin K enables the blood calcium to increase), or the consumption of more ionized water, the effectiveness of the increase in the calcium in high blood pressure is most significant.
Too many fats in the diets, which lead to the deposition of cholesterol on the blood vessels, which in turn constrict the blood flow, cause most illnesses such as high blood pressure. By drinking ionized water for a period of 2 to 3 months, the blood pressure should slowly drop, because the ionized water is a good solvent, which dissolves the cholesterol in the blood vessels.”

Anti-cancer Effects
After injecting malignant skin cancer cells into cancer-free laboratory mice, they supplied the mice with Alkaline Reduced Water, and compared the size of the tumour after a lapse of 20 days.
The results showed the mice, which were supplied with the Ionized Water (ARW) showed the growing speed of the tumour and tumour sizes had been notably reduced as compared to those that had not taken ARW.
Colon Cleanse
Dr Hiromi Shinya, Director, Shinya Medical Clinic, New York
His revolutionary “Shinya Method” has become widely used in colonoscopy procedures worldwide.
“It is widely recognized in the medical profession that a healthy and clean colon is one of the most important precursors to good health and that the great majority of body ailments and diseases originate in an acidic and dirty colon. Water is essential for your health. Drinking “good water;” especially hard water which has much calcium and magnesium keeps your body at an optimal alkaline PH.”
Vascular Heart Disease
Prof. Kuwata Keijiroo, Doctor of Medicine, Japan
“In my opinion, the wonder of ionized water is the ability neutralizes toxins, but it is not a medicine. The difference is that the medicine can only apply to each and individual case. Whereas the ionized water can be consumed generally and it’s neutralizing power is something which is very much unexpected. Now, in brief, let me introduce to you a heart disease case and how it was cured. The patient was a 35 years old male suffering from vascular heart disease. For 5 years, his sickness deteriorated. He was in the Setagays Government Hospital for treatment.
During those 5 years, he had been in and out of the hospital 5 to 6 times. He had undergone high tech examinations such as angiogram by injecting VINYL via the vein into the heart. He consulted and sought treatment from many good doctors where later he underwent a major surgical operation. Upon his discharge from the hospital, he quit his job to convalesce. However, each time when his illness relapsed, the attack seemed to be even more severe. Last year, in August, his relatives were in despair and expected he would not live much longer. It so happened at that time that the victim’s relative came across ionized water processor. His illness responded well and he is now on the road to recovery.”
Note: In the United States, cardiovascular diseases account for more than one-half of the approximate 2 million deaths occurring each year. It is estimated that optimal conditioning of drinking water could reduce this cardiovascular disease mortality rate by as much as 15 percent in the United States”

Gastric
Prof. Kogure Keizou, Kogure Clinic of Juntendo Hospital, Japan
“The stomach is readily upset both by diseases affecting the stomach and by other general illnesses. In addition, any nervous tension or anxiety frequently causes gastric upset, vague symptoms when they are under some strain.
The important role of ionized water in our stomach is to neutralize the secretion and strengthen its functions. Usually, after consuming the ionized water for 1 to 3 minutes, the gastric juice increase to 1 1/2 times. For those suffering from hyperchlorhydria or achlorhydria (low in gastric juice) the presence of ionized water will stimulate the stomach cells to secrete more gastric juice. This in turn enhances digestion and absorption of minerals.
However, on the other hand, those with hyperchlorhydria (high in gastric juice), the ionized water neutralizes the excessive gastric juice. Hence, it does not create any adverse reaction.
According to the medical lecturer form Maeba University, the pH of the gastric secretion will still remain normal when ionized water is consumed. This proves that the ability of the ionized water is able to neutralize as well as to stimulate the secretion.”
Kidney Problem
Prof. Kuwata Keijiroo, Doctor of Medicine, Japan
Dr Kerijiroo explains that for severe kidney failure, water intake has to be restricted. However, whereas ordinary tap water “contains phosphate, calcium carbonate and the acidic ions…. [that] tend to reduce the efficiency of the calcium ions….” he feels that in controlled amounts, Alkaline Ionic water will “strengthen the heart and increase urination.”
He goes on to claim that over the next six to twelve months, the patient should maintain an alkaline diet (reduced animal protein) and continue drinking the Alkaline Ionic water to reduce the amounts of urea and uric acid in the blood. He also feels that, through his clinical experience that patients undergoing kidney dialysis should also drink Alkaline Ionic water as well as those patients with kidney disease who do not respond to drugs.
