By using electrolyzed water both Kangen and acidic waters are produced. These waters benefit sanitation (as an antiseptic) and in health (with regards to common illnesses) thereby improving the environment.
By drinking Kangen water is practicing preventive medicine, hence contributing to the significant reduction of public medical costs.
8. How should I drink Kangen water?
We would recommend you to start drinking it at lower pH level of pH8.0 with a daily consumption of 1~2 glasses of it a day continued for about 2 weeks to get used to Kangen Water. Then, gradually increase the pH level.
Healthy people should drink two to three liters of Kangen water (divided into several cups) before meals. Anyone with a health problem should consult a doctor beforehand.
9. The LeveLuk seems extremely expensive. Is it different from other water cleaners?

About Water and Your Health...
1.Why isn't our body naturally alkaline?
We are all alkaline naturally, but our individual organs have different pH because they are components of a wholistic system called 'the body' which uses all organs and elimination systems to maintain a blood level of approximately pH 7.35 at all times.
2.What has 'natural alkalinity' got in common with 'cellulite'?
They are both products of advertising and have no real meaning. However the true 'natural alkalinity' of the human body is usually referring to the blood pH, which is optimally pH 7.35.
3.What is a free radical?
There is a particular substance in oxygen which is a powerful oxidizing agent and the major cause of rust. This agent is called active oxygen. Wrinkles in skin are the result of cells which have "rusted," and free radical is also the key player in cellular aging and illness.
Kangen
4. What is active hydrogen?
Active hydrogen has the ability to immediately neutralize free radicals and render it non-poisonous. The power of oxygen to cause rust is called "oxidizing power." There is a theory that active hydrogen reverses oxidizing power, "returning" the oxygen to its original state.
5. What is "Kangen" water?
How is that alkalized water different from other water?
Kangen water is safe water that has been cleaned from chlorine and other chemical compounds, and which has had any oxidized compounds neutralized with active hydrogen. Alkaline ionized water is the water with ample hydrogenated ions with an alkaline ph. Kangen water has more hydrogenated ions than common alkalized water, and is therefore an especially effective anti-oxidant (active oxygen neutralizer.)
6. Has the U.S. medical community recognized the efficacy of active hydrogen? Professor Fernandez at the University of Texas has published a report on this subject.
7. Is the Kangen water made in Japan effective in the U.S?
Yes, it is effective.
8. What is the problem with bottled water?
One of the problems with bottled water is the impact of plastic bottles on the environment. As far as water quality is concerned, the water loses pH and ORP as time goes by.
9. Is Kangen water OK for pets?
Yes, it's very good for pets, too!
10. Is it true that Kangen water is good for abnormal fermentation of the stomach and intestines, deodorizing of bowel movements, protecting against cancer, dieting, obesity and lowering blood sugar levels?
Legally, we cannot make claims of this sort. However, one can refer to specific cases and testimonials found in a number of books and publications.
11. Can you cite any clinical tests under Japan's Water Therapy Law?
Yes. Kyowa Hospital, Akashi Hospital and several others are famous for their use of water therapy.
Kyowa Hospital: Treating atopy skin conditions, diabetes
Akashi Hospital: Treating atopy skin conditions
