Kangen Water

Yesterday a friend and I spent pretty much the whole day in Midway at a conference for Kangen Water. Basically what Kangen water is is Ionized water. It's something that I have been very interested in getting a machine lately.

The water is run through the machine and is charged by titanium plates that seperate water into alkaline and acidic water. They say that the Alkaline water can contain antioxidants which can fight against free radical damage- therefore prolonging aging. It makes sense how it would work, I definately don't think I'll stay looking 21 forever though.

I'm really interseted in getting the machine because you can create several different "types" of water at different pH's. Such as, you can create "drinking water" which is a perfectly balanced pH of 7.0. You can also create "acid water" which can be used to disinfect and santize surfaces and clean.

The president of the company is actually from Okinawa Japan, which is also very interesting because people from Okinawa have the longest life span of anyone in the world. Basically they contribute alot of that to the fact that the water the people consume is alkaline which helps prolong their lifespan.

Of course there is alot of conflicting evidence saying that consuming too much alkaline water can actually be harmful to your body because most of your organs have different pH levels and range on different levels of acidity.

I really want to get one but Chris isn't very convinced about it, so I have to look into it more. If you're interested check out the website to find out more about it:
