For many of us, when we hear the term dehydration, we immediately think of a man staggering in the desert, or an athlete having just finished a gruelling event. We are correct in a sense, however these are both examples of acute dehydration.

You may be surprised to learn there is a far more widespread form - chronic dehydration - that we should all be concerned with...

There is no better argument for a Kangen water machine than this when it comes to sanitizing your vegetables before eating them.

Salinas Valley waterways are known to carry the bacteria that poisoned at least 145 people and killed one who ate tainted spinach.

The bacterium that has sickened people across the nation and forced growers
to destroy spinach crops is so pervasive in the Salinas Valley that
virtually every waterway there violates national standards.

I received an interesting email the other day about the signs of stroke.

As I understand it, our blood vessels over time can become like a garden hose left out in the sun too long - very dry and brittle. This is caused by oxidation and when a vessel shatters, it ends up as a blood clot as seen in this picture.

When the blood supply is blocked, no oxygen arrives and the cells in that area of the brain literally die, leaving the person without the use of their left arm, etc. A stroke is a terrible thing to have happen, and yet it is simply caused by the process of oxidation.

How do you help to prevent oxidation? Take an anti-oxidant like Kangen water. I've have recently moved up to Kangen 9.5 and feel great. Here is some more information from the article.

A neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours he can totally reverse the effects of a stroke%u2026totally. He said the trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed, and then getting the patient medically cared for within 3 hours, which is tough.

RECOGNIZING A STROKE: Remember the "3%u2033 steps, STR. Read and Learn!

Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster. The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke. Now doctors say a bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple questions:

S *Ask the individual to SMILE.

T *Ask the person to TALK . To SPEAK A SIMPLE SENTENCE (Coherently) (I.e. . . It is sunny out today)

R *Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS.

{NOTE: Another 'sign' of a stroke is this: Ask the person to 'stick' out their tongue%u2026 If the tongue is 'crooked', if it goes to one side or the other that is also an indication of a stroke}

We've had several questions about the benefits of distilled water, so I wanted to try and clear a few things up.

First , let's examine some of the properties of distilled water. Water that is boiled, evaporated and condensed is said to be distilled. This process removes the minerals and allows the water to absorb toxins from the body. It also removes electrolytes such as sodium, potassium, chloride and trace minerals such as magnesium, and for this reason, it is not considered safe to use distilled water when fasting.

When your body consistently loses huge amounts of calcium, magnesium and other trace minerals into the urine, the risk of osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, hypothyroidism, coronary artery disease, high blood pressure and a long list of degenerative diseases generally associated with premature aging increase. Distilled water also absorbs carbon dioxide from the air, making it acidic.

The more distilled water you drink, the more acidic you become. It is also interesting to note that sodas are made from distilled water. We all know what happens when you leave a penny in a glass of soda over night - it ain't the sugar that's doing the work. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, "Distilled water, being essentially mineral-free, is very aggressive, in that it tends to dissolve substances with which it is in contact. Notably, carbon dioxide from the air is rapidly absorbed, making the water acidic and even more aggressive. Many metals are dissolved by distilled water."

Distilled water is great for cleaning your iron, but not your body.

We are also getting back to believing that aging and disease is the direct result of the accumulation of acid waste products in the body. Many modern health care practitioners have been saying this for a long time and you can see several of them at the main page of Kangen Water.ws

Stay tuPicture of water from a pure source.ned for some further information about Dr. Masaru Emoto - the water guy from "What the Bleep do we know?"

The human body is made up of 70% water, which type would you rather have make up your cells?

1. The best drinking water you can get. Small clusters of water molecules make it ultra absorbable.

2. As part of your anti-hangover ritual, consume 2-3 glasses before bed to reduce hangovers.

3. To drink during meals. Balance some of the acidity contained in foods such as rice, bread, egg yolks, any meats. Drinking high alkaline water will help to balance the effects of these acidic foods.

4. For brewing tea and coffee. Prevents tannin in tea, brews tea with a rich color, eliminates bitter after taste and enhances the flavor of tea cold. Improves aroma and color of coffee while preserving the natural acidity. Achieve a full, rich taste using half the amount of beans.

5. Add kangen water to whisky for a smoother flavor. Also add kangen water ice cubes.

6. Beer, sake and other spirits can be diluted with kangen water as well. Beer will seem milder, but not lose taste.

7. For soups - kangen water draws out the flavor of the soup stock and other ingredients.

8. Add to seasonings and condiments. Maintain flavor of soy sauce while using 1/3 to 1/4 of the amount used and adding kangen.

9. Pre-boil vegetables to enhance the flavors of your cooking.

10. Blanch green vegetables. Spinach, broccoli, string beans and other greens will have their vibrant color preserved by blanching in kangen water.

11. Soak liver, mutton and other organ meats in kangen water for 20-30 minutes. It will drain off blood and reduce strong smells.

12. For boiled foods. Natural flavors will be drawn out requiring less added seasoning.

13. Heat conduction. Kangen water speeds up boiling time by improved conduction of heat. Spend less time cooking thus lowering your utility bills. Dishes will be cooked far quicker than usual.

14. To water both plants and flowers. Extends the life of cut flowers and restores sick plants. For varieties such as roses requiring a more acidic environment, the solution can be diluted by 300%.

15. Water seeds. Kangen water stimulates germination and seedling development.

16. As drinking water for pets and animals. Animals health will increase, odors from body and waste will decrease.

17. For dyeing/painting. You will love the vibrant colors obtained using this water.

18. To maintain good health. Drinking 2 liters a day will eventually change an acidic constitution to a slightly alkaline one. Continued use of calcium cartridges will replenish calcium levels. Warm the water to body temperature for assisted colon cleansing. Help to slow down aging and

I recently saw a post asking about the validity of Kangen water at Scamdex. This is my reply:

I've been drinking Kangen water for around 2 months.

Before that, I was drinking Penta water and before that - the same time last year - I was drinking distilled water.

This last weekend, I completed a 100 mile endurance cycling event. My performance was 25% better than last year and I didn't need to take a single anti-inflammatory to complete the event.

My diet was also the same, the only difference this time was the water I drank.

There are a lot of books now on the Alkaline diet and the importance of reducing acidity in the body and we know that disease thrives in an acidic environment. Kangen drinking water ranges from pH8.5 ~ pH9.5 and is anti-oxidant. It can be measured using a ORP (oxidation reduction device) and will show a negative reading.

It is also restructed into smaller clusters of water molecules, making it easier for the body to absorb. After my event, I drank 2 regular 9oz bottle of kangen water and needed to use the restroom. The water was absorbed straight away.

If being alkaline is bad for you, if drinking water is bad for you and if taking anti-oxidants are bad for you, then kangen water is of no benefit to anyone.

Of the 44 companies manufacturing ionized water generators, only 6 of them make units certified as kangen water grade. A regular Alkaline ionized water unit are classified as "home health appliances." Kangen water units are classified by the Japanese Ministry of health and welfare as a "medical device." In 2002, Enagic was recognized by the Japanese association of preventive medicine for adults disease - a non-profit and independent doctors association, known for its respect in the medical community and its long and thorough selection process. They only issue one endorsement to a single product they judge the very best in each category.

Award winning water.

Kangen water is the only water product or technology that has been officially approved for its health merits by the Japanese Ministry of Health and Welfare, which is the equivalent to the FDA in the US. Enagic, the company manufacturing our Kangen water machines, is the only company in the whole water industry whose products are endorsed by the Japanese association of preventive Medicine for Adult diseases. as being the best and most reliable in its field. The non-profit doctors association endorses a variety of products and technologies that can help treat and possibly cure lifestyle related diseases such as osteoporosis, diabetes, cancer, high cholesterol, hypertension, etc.

It is known for its long and thorough selection process under the policy of 1 product, 1 industry. Together, it makes Enagic the only company that is endorsed by both the Japanese government and the most respected doctors association in ts field. In existence for over 20 years, Enagic spent the first 10 years working exclusively with doctors and hospitals to co-develop and market professional grade machines. During this period, they established their quality driven culture and started manufacturing smaller home units only after doctors and their discharged patients started asking for them so as to continue their treatments. There were already a handful of similar home units, known as Alkaline water generators, yet none were of kangen water grade, which is what they really wanted.

We already know that Japanese people have a higher life expectancy. It shouldn't be a surprise to learn they have known about this water for over 40 years. Over 300,000 families in Japan have acquired Enagic kangen water units, making the company the dominant player in the industry, in terms of quality, number of units, gross sales of over $230 millio

I recently heard that Dr Hiromi Shinya is an advocate of ionized, alkaline water. For those of you not familiar with Dr Shinya, in 1968, he developed the technique of colonoscopy. Since that time, he has performed over 300,000 colonoscopic examinations and believes there is a strong correlation between intestinal views and dietary choices.

He says that lifestyle related diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, etc are directly linked to your diet. If you eat a proper diet and drink good water, your colon will remain clear of built up waste, which is a haven for toxins to thrive and create disease in the body.

Yearly colonoscopies are recommended after the age of 40, which means I have 9 years to go. The condition of my intestines at that time - after eating a proper alkaine diet and drinking a gallon of Kangen water daily - will be pristine.

I'll bet my life on it.

I've been reading about RV water tanks, and the problems they face ensuring their water is safe to drink. I'm actually a Yacht person and RVs are considered to be land yachts, so that makes sense to me.

Basically, the RV water tank is a "large petri-dish" on wheels. The movement of the water, the air and the heat create an environment that dissipates the chlorine in the tank whilst giving new life to the bacteria it once controlled. Not only do you have to drive the RV, one must also become an amateur water treatment worker by maintaining a safe system, treating the water in the tank and then purifying it before drinking.

Treatment involves super chlorination of the water and allowing for the dissipation of chlorine. In other words, RV owners need to have the water in their tank at higher levels than normal of chlorine in order to stay safe. I don't know about you, but by the time it gets to my glass, I don't want it to have anything in it at all.

We need the chlorine in the water to kill off the bacteria such as Giardia and Cryptosporidium, however we don't want to drink it. This where kangen water comes in.

The SD501 - Enagic's 7 chambered ionzing unit is portable and can be used with any faucet. RVs have 120 volt AC power for home appliances, so using the unit at home or in the RV is easy - simply plug it in and away you go. The water is first purified through the filter, which is made from granulated carbon and calcium sulfite. It is antibacterial activated and removes 95% of the initial chlorine and 0.4 parts per million against 2 ppm of the residual chlorine in tap water. The water is then passed through the electodes where it is ionized. The result of all this is a clean, clear, pure taste that tastes like water should.

I was also interested to read that most areas with bad water are ones that take their supply from mountain streams. In advertising, we associate crystal mountain streams with purity and cleanliness. I guess they don't want to show the bear doing it's business in the water or a dead animal floating by. Of all the animals blamed for contaminating water, the poor old beaver gets much of the blame. It seems they spend most of their time in or near the water supply so it is inevitable their waste (and the parasites from their waste) will end up in the water.

I don't know if I'll drink the next time I'm near a mountain stream. Actually, I'll have a bottle of kangen water with me, so I won't need to.

I've been researching into the background and construction of water ionizer units. At the present moment, units are manufactured in Japan, Korea and Taiwan. There are some units assembled using parts from those countries in the US, however there are no recognized US manufacturers of water ionizer units.

So who makes the better units?

Since the Japanese were the first the develop the machines - around 40 years ago - they must be given due credit. They are meticulous when it comes to product quality and in fact have an expression - icho - meaning first class. The water ionizer units manufactured by Enagic are indeed, first class. You may already have Japanese products in your home - brands like Sony, Toshiba, Panasonic. Reliable products made with cutting edge technology. This is a trademark of the way the Japanese manufacture things.

There is also the issue of the electrodes. Should the unit have 5 or 7 and does it really matter what they are made of? A unit with 7 electrodes will have a longer life by 28% over a unit with 5. There are 2 more electrodes to share the workload of processing the water. For a family, a unit with 7 electrodes is a necessity as the requirements for the water will be larger. The unit with 7 electrodes can also make water with a larger ORP range, meaning both the strong acidic and strong alkaline water for cleaning will be be better by having a higher or lower ORP as the case may be.

I have heard of some cheaper units using stainless steel electrodes, but it appears to be an urban myth. All of the units I have examined have platinum coated, titanium electrodes.

Since neither titanium or platinum are inexpensive, the electrodes themselves create most of the actual cost for the unit The better the electrodes, the better the unit. Titanium is a very strong metal, which is why it is used. The platinum is a good conductor and is durable, however no units make electrodes completely out of platinum, primarily due to the cost, but also because they wouldn't last any longer than the titanium dipped electrodes.

When I hear the term "free radical," I immediately go back to the most boring science class experience I ever had. Free radicals are part of the world of quantum physics - where men and women in white jackets look at atoms and other things 1 millionth the size of a pin head.

I hope to try and break through the science here and explain as clearly as possible what free radicals are and what they can do to your health.

Let's say each atom has a positive and a negative end. Atoms that have both poles will remain stable and continue to do what atoms do in a normal fashion. Now let's say an atom only has a negative end - it is missing a positive and thus becomes unstable. It will bounce around inside the cell looking for a positive and in doing so cause damage in the cell.

An unstable atom is called a free radical and the collective damage done to the cell by the unstable atom is called oxidation. When the body has enough damaged cells from free radicals and oxidation, we have aging. Obviously, we need to do something about these free radicals.

Every time we breathe and every time our body breaks down nutrients for energy, free radicals are created. We must breath and eat in order to survive, so simply stopping either thing is not an option. What we need to do is introduce anti-oxidants to the body to combat the oxidation and ultimately, the aging.

An anti-oxidant is simply an atom that has only a positive end. When an anti-oxidant meets with a free radical, they both join up to become a stable atom. Stable atoms don't damage cells, or cause oxidation or cause aging. We want stable atoms in our body.

There are thousands of supplements available today claiming to be anti-oxidant. I take several of them, yet I have never seen any information about just how effective they are at combating free radicals. We can measure the anti-oxidant potential of liquids using an ORP meter (Oxidation Reduction Potential).

You can't stop the creation of free radicals in your body, but you can do something about the anti-oxidants you need to stabilize them. Drink anti-oxidant, Kangen Water.

You can take a look at some readings of liquids by clicking here. Any number that is positive indicates the liquid has no anti-oxidant potential. In fact, it will only assist the oxidation process.

I've been doing some reading to find out if there does exist a link between beauty and water.

Here is what I discovered at http://freebeautytips.org%u2026

Benefits of Drinking Water
We all want smooth, soft, unblemished skin. But sometimes it seems like great skin is either something you're born with or something you'll never achieve. These days, the medical industry has created skin care treatments that are halfway between plastic surgery and serious cosmetics. You can have your skin sanded, chemically peeled, zapped with lasers, frozen or injected with Botox, the catchy hyphenated name for botulism toxin. You can spend thousands of dollars in a pretty short period of time to achieve results that may or may not be what you hoped for.

But one of the most wonderful skin care treatments is easily available to everyone, has side benefits that affects not just your rosy glow but your whole body, and is utterly painless to use. It's called water, and you drink it.

Not coffee. I know, coffee has water. It also has an abundance of interesting chemicals including caffeine, which raises your heartbeat, exaggerates stress on the body and causes diuresis, or loss of hydration. All these things combine to make for ravaged, hag-like skin, which if that's what you're aiming for, is just fine. But those of us who want to hold off hagdom as long as possible have to face the facts: that cappuccino may taste good, but it's going to increase under eye circles, make your kidneys work harder than they should, and can result in breakouts, flushing and blotchy skin.

The facts are these. Not soda, not beer, not juice, not even tea can replace the magical, rejuvenating effects of that old classic, H2O.

How much water should you drink
With these thoughts in mind, I decided to actually drink the 8, 8-ounce glasses of water recommended by beauty experts and dermatologists alike. That's four glasses in the morning, and four more after lunch, a doable goal. I filled my glass from the tap and took a drink. I tasted chlorine, chemicals, weird odiferous things that don't smell like water should. City water stinks. This was going to be harder than I thought.

Bottled Drinking Water
I could buy bottled water, at a dollar a pint, at the grocery store. Let's see, there are two cups in a pint, and I need to drink at least 8 cups per day. Four dollars a days sounds like a lot for water, don't you think? Like I'm going to spend $120 a month on drinking water! And, then I'l

I've been asked a number of times recently about the difference between these 2 units.

I went with the SD501 personally, because I wanted the water with a higher ORP*, a longer warranty, longer life span*, ability to produce more water per minute, etc, etc. I know it will get a workout when my family see it.

These comments are from one of my sponsors who bought the DX II%u2026

Enagic LeveLuk DX"Let me just say the DX is not a good idea. The electrolysis container is not detachable and there is greater risk of accidentally letting the fluid run into the machine and when that happens, the machine can become permanently damaged.

It's basically becoming an obsolete model.

Enagic Leveluk DX IIThe DX II is fine and is the one I bought. However, the warranty is only for 3 years (the SD501 is for 5), there are just 5 electrodes (the SD501 has 7), the water is better both in taste and healthful properties in the SD501.

The SD501 costs a bit more-like $50 more per year over the life of the machine but is well worth the difference.

The DX II is fine but not as good as the SD501. It is $700 less with a lesser warranty and fewer electrodes. I have the DX II and will eventually get a SD501. The DX II does have a separate electrolysis container-a must!!!"

*Increasing the number of ionizing chambers from 5 to 7 increases the -ORP by 40% and will prolong the life of the unit by approximately 28%.
