What is a Water Ionizer?

February 4, 2012 · Posted in Health and Wellness 

More and more trends in the health and wellness industry are being brought about by the increasing number of new, developing illnesses, as well as the gradual decline of life expectancy in most parts of the globe. One of the most popular heath campaigns is on the use of water ionizers to produce alkaline water that when regularly taken, can help balance the body’s ecosystem.

So what is a water ionizer? How does it work and what are its known health benefits?

A water ionizer is a water purification system that turns tap water into ionized water. It does this in two stages – filtration stage and the ionization stage. In the filtration stage, tap water is filtered, removing the contaminants and chemicals producing mineral water in the end. In the ionization stage, the process of electrolysis is applied where the water is both positively charged making it acidic and negatively charged – resulting to alkaline water. The two types of water are separated in the ionization chamber and the alkaline water is then used for drinking.

A lot of people believe that alkaline water helps in balancing the PH levels of the body and thus, prevents illnesses brought about by having acidic body like osteoporosis, fatigue and the like. Although it has not been clinically proven, there are a lot of individuals who are drinking alkaline water regularly and who can attest to the improvement that they have observed with their health. Some of the benefits that they associate with drinking ionized water are the following:

  1. Acts as an antioxidant. Alkaline water has antioxidant power, which flushes bad toxins from our body. This can improve the body’s immune system and it can help one achieve and maintain a younger looking skin. It also increases one’s vitality.
  2. Improves cardiovascular health. Alkaline water can help prevent heart diseases like heart failure, heart attack, and high blood pressure. It can also improve the cholesterol level, which also helps in preventing heart ailments.
  3. Aids in weight loss. It would be  easier for the body to lose some weight if it is  less acidic so drinking alkaline water can help an individual achieve their weight loss goal.
  4. Prevents Cancer. Since alkaline water reduces the acidity of the body, it makes the body healthy and also prevents deadly diseases like cancer.

Health is wealth as the cliché goes so we can really conclude that investing in a water ionizer at home is a wise choice. One of the stores that sell top quality water ionizers is Alkaline Water Plus.

    I have been hearing a lot of great benefits in taking alkaline water – our body in its natural state should be alkaline but because of stress and the junk food we take in it turns acidic which is susceptible to sickness since abnormal cells and bacteria strive in an acidic environment. I should try alkaline water for the family I think.

    I have heard only great feedback about ionized water and the benefits alone are enough for me to consider having a water ionizer system installed at home.

    I am skeptical if the benefits of alkaline water are indeed true but a couple of my friends have been trying it for three months and coupled with a healthier lifestyle, they are stronger, glowing and look amazing!

    I wonder how long ionized water can keep their alkalinity. That’s what I’m curious about. Is it dependent on the water ionizer you buy?

    Thanks for featuring the different water ionizers I can buy. I love how they all offer a lifetime warranty.

    I heard that alkaline water really helps stabilize the natural PH state of our body so it can help prevent cancer, which thrives on acidic states.

    I can attest to the benefits of drinking ionized water. Our whole family switched to drinking it for six months and it has helped us tremendously. We are now thinking of investing on our own water ionizer system at home. Thanks for the examples you listed – will check them out.

    Instead of buying alkaline water, which we are not even sure if its truly alkaline, it would be wiser to invest on one of these water ionizers for the home. It will help you save more money in the long run.

    You had me in “aids in weight loss”. I have been trying to lose weight for the longest time and want to detox my body first. Maybe alkaline water can help?

  11. Dez on February 10th, 2012 2:48 am

    With all the health trends and the switching to organic food I am seeing lately, I am most curious about ionized water. I know that it helps balance the PH levels in the body but I didnt know that it can act as an antioxidant and prevent cancer too!

  12. Race on February 10th, 2012 2:49 am

    My mom is in her 60s and just switched to organic food and does juicing three times a week. As part to her switch to a healthier lifestyle, he also invested in one of those water ionizers so she can have alkaline water at her disposal!

    There is so much hype about drinking alkaline water these days that I have grown quite wary on those who sell them bottled up. Id rather do my own filtration so I can be sure my water is indeed alkaline! This is why I have been looking for water ionizers.

  14. Kerslyn on February 10th, 2012 2:50 am

    Thank you for listing the benefits of ionized water – now all I need to do is save up so we can have our own ionizer!

  15. Martha on February 10th, 2012 2:51 am

    I wonder if those water ionizers are available locally. Thanks for this great post!

    Hello there,

    Is there any protocol to taking alkaline water – say with supplements or medicine? I read somewhere or was told when I bought some pH drops, alkaline water cannot be taken with medicine.

  17. Rudz on April 19th, 2012 1:07 am

    As we’ve used ionizer water i have notice that we stay fully hydrates and become energized.. Thanks
