What Is Kangen Water About

The name ‘Kangen’ is derived from a Japanese word, which means reduction, or ‘return to the origin’. Kangen is used to describe pure, healthy, alkaline ionized drinking water rich in minerals. This water is obtained through electrolysis and contains extra hydrogen ions. Kangen water is a powerful ‘antioxidant’ as it contains active hydrogen ions. These active ions supply additional quantity of ions to the body, which impart strong antioxidant properties. Antioxidants are substances, which can neutralize the free radicals and also prevent and repair the damage caused by oxidative reactions. Hence, antioxidant prevents the damage to the body owing to oxidative reactions and also slows the process of aging. Strong Kangen water has a pH of 11.5.

Water regulation is very important for the regular functioning of the body. The quality and the amount of water intake are very important in maintaining pH balance, temperature regulation and excretion.

The acid and alkaline levels should be maintained in an exact proportion for the normal functioning of all the organs. ‘Acidosis’ is the main reason behind the occurrence of almost all diseases. Hence, the body should be alkalized to restore the normal functioning of all organs. Drinking alkaline water thereby helps in maintaining and regularizing the body’s function, as it is beneficial. The following are of the benefits of Kangen (alkaline) water.

• Helps in removal of toxins from the body.
• Helps in maintaining the pH levels of the body.
• Helps in reducing the fat deposits.
• The body can process digestion and excretion process efficiently.
• Helps in improving energy.
