A water ionizer separates water into alkaline and acid fractions using a process known as electrolysis. It does this by exploiting the electric charge of the calcium and magnesium ions present in nearly all sources of drinking water. When a source of water lacks mineral ions, such as distilled water, or has been filtered by reverse osmosis, electrolysis has no ionizing effect.
Some research suggests that alkaline reduced water may be useful in scavenging free radicals in the laboratory setting. Tests on in vitrolymphocytes suggest that reduced water can prevent hydrogen peroxide-induced damage to DNA, RNA and certain proteins. However, drinking ionized water would not be expected to alter the body's pH, and there is no empirical evidence to support claims made by manufacturers that drinking ionized water will have a noticeable effect on the body.
Electrolyzed water has been used by the food industry to sanitize food products; though effective in bacterial solutions, it was found less useful when sanitizing utensils, surfaces and food products. Acidic electrolyzed water (pH 2.3–2.6) may have use as a seed surface disinfectant or contact bactericide.

We used water ionizers at home, especially for kid's drinking water. They really need that.
ReplyDeleteSure.. Now, The water quality is going to bad and bad.. Because the effect of many human work.
