Frequently asked questions.
Why Kangen water®, what do the studies say?
The benefits of ionized, the molecular hydrogen antioxidant power and micro clustered water. The technical term for Enagic's alkaline Kangen Water® is Electrolyzed-Reduced Water(ERW).
The acidic waters produced by a Kangen® Machine are called Acidic Electrolyzed Water(AEW) or Electrolyzed Oxidizing Water (EOW).
Many studies have been conducted on ERW, AEW and EOW and its affect on health and other practical applications.
Kangen Water® contains Active Hydrogen, which is a powerful antioxidant and has many health benefits.
*Kangen cannot be used to describe the water unless it is from an Enagic® machine.

* In your research, it is likely that you will find articles “debunking” Kangen® and this is often coming from competitors. Many have tried to compare why they’re “better than Kangen®, or Enagic’s technology- which is simply like comparing a “Fruit cocktail” to a handful or berries- the natural, pure state is obviously better for one’s health. Other companies while they do have reputable technology, simple are not in the same arena as Enagic’s 46-year old thriving company and technology.
How is Kangen Water® detoxifying?
Cellular respiration is the process where oxygen gets the bad stuff out and nutrition in.
The aquaporin (Aquaporins (AQP) are integral membrane proteins that serve as channels in the transfer of water, and in some cases, small solutes across the membrane. They are conserved in bacteria, plants, and animals. Structural analyses of the molecules have revealed the presence of a pore in the center of each aquaporin molecule.) aren"a high speed plumbing system for cells". As the heart beats - so do our blood cells. co2 and toxins come out, oxygen and nutrition come in. 16-25 molecules of h20 does not fit into the cells - Kangen water® breaks the molecules apart so they fit in better. [ DR Michael https://youtu.be/TugKJW6USAw ]
What is the dissociation of the water molecule? (micro clustering)
"The h20 is hit with an electric charge and the bonds burst. You get the oxygen, hydrogen and hydroxyl. The molecules have been restructured to get into your cells better.
1. Molecular hydrogen - charges your cell membrane
2. Active oxygen -produces mitochondria which is a structure that creates energy to run a cell
3. Hydroxyl anions a free radical scavenger - this makes the water alkaline
4. Restructured for rapid absorption maximizing nutrition and detoxification
* When mitochondria breaks down, there is less oxygen and disease can form. DO NOT CLAIM that alkaline water can cure disease, this is simply not true. Electrolyzed reduced water produces more mitochondria which makes it difficult for disease to form, alkaline water alone cannot produce this *
When hydroxyl is present the pH is more alkaline, but it is both two components of hydroxyl and active oxygen that make the water effective and able to penetrate cells easier. Just because water is alkaline, doesn't make it effective. “

Have there been studies on ERW?

Isn’t it enough to eat fruits and vegetables and be healthy?
It doesn’t matter how clean you eat, you can only benefit from 25% of the nutrients you consume if you drink tap, bottled water or basic filtered water. If you only drank tea and coffee, and zero water, you would absorb more than drinking normal water. The max you can absorb is 75% but on average 40-50%. Kangen® allows you to absorb 97%.
What about reverse osmosis water?
Membrane filtered water. This strips all minerals and bacteria - it cleans the water but leaves absolutely nothing, no minerals or electrolytes. Usually the water is remineralized after the process, but the minerals are chemically processed and are not good for us in the long term. Fridge filters or water-jug filters are not good for long term health and hydration. These filters don't remove chlorine and rust, they just reduce them.
Where can you install a Kangen® machine?
They can be installed almost anywhere and to any tap. Some additional pieces may be required for a secure fit but it is possible. Some users prefer under the sink, in the bathroom or laundry room for installation. It shouldn’t take more than 20 minutes to install. There are also different versions and depending on your lifestyle, you can make a choice as to what is a good fit for you and your family.
Kangen machines can also be set up at business, offices and restaurants. There are some health & wellness centres, cafés and fine dining restaurants around the world that use a kangen machine because of the benefits as far as: cost of water, cost of cleaning products, and taste of food is concerned.
