Kangen Water™ Fosters Medical Independence in Hard Times
A Japanese water ionizer technology by Enagic may be just the thing to help you to take responsibility for your own health and not be so dependent on the medical
establishment, in the same spirit as getting off foreign oil.
Is it really that simple? Change Your Water...Change Your Life?
With the current financial crisis on everyone's minds, it's important to realize that our risk of health challenges won't go away just because we might not be able to afford health insurance or health care.
While the presidential candidates debate their health care and economic strategy plans, and the entire country – no, make that the entire world – stresses out about the looming economic
crisis; one thing is certain: our normal day-to-day challenges, such as the condition of our family's health, will not magically go away.
As people worry about their 401k losses and paying their mortgages, the risks of cancer and other potentially life-threatening diseases are still ever-present. Many already have such situations to deal with, and know that the added stress of financial concerns do not help their immune systems battle illnesses. Rather, stress has been shown to lower resistance to illnesses. Now, more than ever, we need some real solutions, not only about finances, but about how we can deal with these health challenges amid such economic and emotional turmoil.
The sad truth is that our health challenges won't disappear just because we lack the resources to pay for health insurance or health care. Medical costs were already the leading cause of bankruptcy in the U.S.; how much more so will this be true with this new economic development? How many more families will suffer financial ruin when health disasters strike, on top of all the other disasters like losing their jobs, homes or retirement?
That diagnosis from your doctor might happen next week or next month. And suddenly a new crisis will be added to the camel's back.
In light of the instability of the economy, do we really want to be dependent on the hopes of a new 'health care' (i.e., disease management) system?
For that matter, even if it materializes, do we really want to be dependent on the established medical system?
“Being dependent on the medical establishment is as detrimental to
individuals and society as our dependence on foreign oil. Taking
responsibility for our health through preventative maintenance is supported by
the same fundamental principles as shifting to renewable energy resources in
the energy sector.” -- Sterling D. Allan, CEO of PES Network, Inc.
We are already seeking alternative sources of fuel and energy. Many of you visiting this website might even be living in self-sufficient homes – or want to be. Are you self-sufficient in your health management as well?
In these troubled times, it would behoove us to rethink our approach to health care.
How does the U.S. rate in world health?

The man on the left, Hironari Oshiro, CEO and President of Enagic USA, has been drinking Kangen
Water for decades.
According to the United Nations, the U.S. is currently ranked #37 for longevity - right below Cuba.
Japan tops the list at #1. (1)
While undoubtedly there are many factors contributing to this statistic, what we do know is that the Japanese tend to focus more on prevention; hence, the average Japanese citizen manages to spend only about 1/3 as much on health care as the average American, yet lives 5-7 years longer.

Perhaps one of their secrets is something ridiculously simple and yet so important...the water that they drink.
Approximately 1 in 5 households has a water ionizer machine in Japan.
Clinical Studies
In Japan, many hospitals and clinics have been using purified, electrically restructured, ionized, alkaline water -- trademarked as Kangen Water™
('Kangen' means 'return to origin') -- for over 30 years to treat a number of disease conditions. See
reports of clinical studies.
pH: A key to health?
In 1931, Dr. Otto Warburg won the Nobel Prize for proving that cancer cells must have an anaerobic environment to live.
(3) In recent years, many books have been written asserting that balancing the body's pH is a crucial factor in lowering the risk of cancer and other diseases.
The challenge, of course, is keeping our bodies at the proper pH. While diet is extremely important, many people on a health regimen drink bottled or filtered water, both of which are usually very acidic and oxidizing; both of which may contribute to an environment in which cancer and other diseases are known to thrive.

The video shows different types of waters, soft drinks, sports drinks, etc. and demonstrates the alkalinity and ORP (Oxidation Reduction Potential) of each. It also demonstrates the removal of pesticides, chlorine, etc.
Just how much antioxidant can you drink?
According to the National Cancer Institute, “considerable laboratory evidence from chemical, cell culture, and animal studies indicates that antioxidants may slow or possibly prevent cancer.”
(5) While the precise amounts and types of antioxidants are still being studied, it is generally well accepted that antioxidants help reduce the risk of many cancers as well as slow down the effects of aging. Drinking Kangen
Water™, rich in antioxidants, floods the body with a much higher amount of antioxidants than could reasonably be consumed from foods or supplements, for the simple reason that water is consumed in larger amounts. Therefore, it's a relatively easy way to potentially impact one's health dramatically. Compelling testimonials available upon
request.

Over 70% of our bodies are water. Kangen Water™ is micro-clustered, so it can more easily penetrate and hydrate the tissues and organs. Micro-clustering is the ionizing effect of breaking a water molecule to about half (or less) of its normal size of 9 to 15 atoms.
Hexagonal Water is the Key
“Hexagonal water – comprised of small molecular units or ring-shaped clusters – moves easily within the cellular matrix of he body, helping with nutrient absorption and waste removal. It aids metabolic processes, supports the immune system, contributes to lasting vitality and acts as a carrier of dissolved oxygen. It can provide alkaline minerals to the body and it helps in the more efficient removal of acidic wastes. Drinking hexagonal water takes us in the direction of health. It supports long life and freedom from disease. Biological organisms prefer hexagonal water.” - Dr. Mu Shik Jhon
(6)
Electrolysis Process: Power and Plates
The Enagic water ionizer utilizes electrolysis to produce highly alkaline (9.5+ pH) water that is rich in antioxidant value and micro-clustered, hexagonal molecules. While competitors may claim that their machines have many of the same features, the Enagic SD501, at
230 watts, is unmatched in power. This wattage, along with the large platinum-coated, medical-grade titanium plates used by the Enagic machine, is necessary to produce the structured molecules in sufficient quantities to get results. The Enagic SD501's plates cover a whopping 245 square inches of surface area. Smaller plates and/or less power, common among competitors' machines, typically do not produce the same
Kangen-grade hexagonal water because both surface area and power are needed to produce the structured molecules in quantity. This abundant microclustering is a crucially important property of Kangen Water™ that is often overlooked when comparing the other features.
Competition: Does Quality Matter?
I know that my lower-priced car will get me from Point A to Point B as well as a higher-priced car. But does this principle apply to matters of health? How do we know that we are in fact reaching Point B? In matters of health, getting to 'Point B' might mean the difference between health and disease...or, in many cases, between life and death. Aside from abundant anecdotal evidence of dramatic health benefits, just how does one assess the quality of a water
ionizer?
The first factor in assessment of water ionizers is workmanship and materials. To qualify as a medical
device in Japan, the Enagic machine must meet very exacting standards of quality. Each Enagic water ionizer is made by a single, skilled
craftsman, as opposed to the cheaper assembly-line production. Many competitors' electrolysis plates are made of metals such as white gold, aluminum, stainless steel, etc., which, over time due to the electrical voltage passing through the metal, causes these inferior metals to leech into the water, potentially harming the body. Use of inferior metals also yields inconsistent water alkalinity and ORP (Oxidation Reduction Potential –
ie., antioxidant measurement) properties.
Competitors often tout the advantages of their “mesh” plate surface; but in fact such a configuration is an inferior conductor of electricity, resulting in faster metal degradation, inconsistent pH and ORP values, and shorter life span. Like the other metals, titanium can, over time, leech into the water, causing a harmful impact to one’s health. However, if the titanium is heavily coated with platinum, as Enagic’s plates are, then this potential health risk is alleviated, since platinum is a valuable trace mineral used by the human body.
Companies can save money at your expense by covering their plates using a spraying technique which results in platinum only a few microns thin. In contrast, Enagic dips their plates in platinum, resulting in a much thicker layer of this precious metal coating. This is essential for correct ionization as well as extending the lifespan of your machine.
Competitors often employ cost-cutting measures such as smaller surface area, inferior mesh design, reduced thickness of platinum coating and/or inferior materials, and lower wattage, thus allowing them to offer dramatically inferior machines at much lower prices. This may be acceptable if it's just a car we're talking about, but would you cut corners if you were having heart surgery? Those who have used the Enagic machine commonly report dramatic, life-changing results. For these people, 'getting to Point B' is important enough to warrant use of the machine endorsed by the Japanese medical establishment, rather than untested, unproven imitators. See interview with the
doctor who tried out 7 different ionizer
machines, none of which produced the results he had witnessed in Japan. Dr. Carpenter finally tried the Enagic machine and got dramatic results with his patients, including many with advanced stage diseases.
The most obvious factor in the assessment of water ionizers is results. While there are many brands of water ionizers, only Enagic offers machines recognized as
medical devices for internal and external medical treatment use in hospitals throughout Japan (and is willing to show their documentation to prove it). Competitors often make claims about being medical devices, but fail to show certification. Clinical trials and water research from Japan over the past 30+ years are based on large-scale, industrial ionizers produced by Enagic and their parent company, Sanastec Inc. In 1997, the household-sized ionizer was introduced, featuring the same technology employed in their large-scale units.
The Enagic machine is also endorsed by the Japanese Ministry of
Health, as well as by Dr. Hiromi Shinya, inventor of the colonoscope. Additionally, Enagic is the only water ionizer company awarded the coveted 'seal of approval' from the
Japanese Association for the Prevention of Adult Diseases (approximately 6600 Medical Doctors). It seems that the Japanese are rather ahead of the U.S.
Why not just bottle it?
“To get the full benefit of Kangen Water™, it must be produced on demand. The negative ORP (Oxidation Reduction Potential) and presence of hydroxyl ions occur when the water is initially produced. Furthermore, the percentage of hexagonal clusters is at its peak when the water is first produced.” - excerpt from
Integrative Research Reports.
Yet another reason to eliminate the bottled water habit is the amount of oil needed to produce plastic water bottles. In order to make all these bottles, manufacturers use 17 million barrels of crude oil. That’s enough oil to keep a million cars going for twelve months.
(7) And, of course, we all know about the pollution problem. It's exceedingly ironic that many otherwise conscientious people are adding to the problem by drinking bottled water, something they think is healthy for them...but isn't. So getting an Enagic water ionizer can offer even more benefits in terms of energy efficiency and pollution reduction.
Remove pesticides and reduce household chemicals
In addition to the alkaline, antioxidant, micro-clustered drinking water, the Enagic machine also produces a high alkaline (11.5 pH) water as well as a strong acidic (2.5 pH) water.
The high alkaline water is useful for removing oil-based pesticides from produce, as well as many household cleaning applications, due to its emulsifying properties.
First-aid applications: Kill bacteria
But it is the strong acidic water that, next to the Kangen Water,™ is of crucial interest to anyone hoping to increase self-sufficiency.
Bacteria is killed at 2.6 pH. While competitor machines may produce water reaching approximately 3.0 pH, only the Enagic water ionizer produces water acidic enough to kill bacteria. This is yet another reason that only the Enagic machine is sold as a medical device
in Japan and is
used in Japanese hospitals as a
disinfectant. HIV and other viruses, candida, fungus, and bacteria such as E. Coli, Salmonella, strep, staph and even MRSA are killed when exposed to this strong acidic water. Quite a handy device to have on hand, in light of uncertain times!
Practical everyday uses include disinfecting meats and produce, public restrooms, kitchen counters, skin conditions, topical infections, and as a first-aid application for cuts and scrapes.
Organic Farming and Restaurants
Strong acidic water even kills harmful plant diseases, thus providing an important application for organic farmers and anyone seeking to be self-sufficient. Enagic has a commercial unit that produces larger amounts of this strong acidic water, for use by clinics,
restaurants, farmers and ranchers.
UL Approval?
Additionally, the lower-wattage competitors' machines fall into the category of recommended UL approval, but many do not have that approval. Since many insurance companies will not cover damages caused by the lesser-wattage, non-UL-approved devices, this is an important safety feature to be aware of when purchasing a machine that will be used on a daily basis. The UL-approved Enagic SD501's higher wattage puts it into a different class altogether.
True Health Insurance – Not Dependent on the Establishment
Now, more than ever, we must take responsibility for our families' health. At a time when monetary investments may be undependable, an Enagic water ionizer is an investment in our most treasured resource: our health. We are seeing a collapse of obsolete and destructive structures, which can be replaced by those that are sustaining, efficient, and life-affirming. We who invest in alternative energy might ask ourselves about the wisdom of continuing to depend on conventional medical protocols for those health challenges that may respond well to preventative measures. Incorporating Kangen Water™ into our arsenal of resources may pay off in other ways as well, as we build new businesses that flourish on health, efficiency, peace, and a clean planet.

Enagic offers several models
that make strong acidic (2.5 pH) water. Some companies imply that their machines
can make acidic water, by showing the Japanese hospital footage on their
website. However, when pressed for documentation to back up this claim, they
produce specs that show their machine produces water down to only about 3.5
acidity. This is acidic, but not acidic enough to kill bacteria. Enagic's
machines are used in hundreds of hospitals because they produce water at 2.5 pH
and below (in addition to the alkaline drinking water). It is important to note
that bacteria such as staph, MRSA, E Coli, salmonella, etc. are killed at 2.6
pH.
Enagic offers water ionizer
machines starting at $1280, as well as a commercial model. We have financing
options available, such as payments as low as $90/month, that make these
machines affordable for most people. Our flagship model, the SD501, has a
company financing option with a down payment of only $380 (+ a modest finance
charge which is partially refundable if you pay it off early). Contact Monica
