Can I Boil or Freeze My Ionized Water?


There are some changes you can make to your ionized water that won’t have drastic effects on its ORP or pH, but there are some changes I don’t recommend you make to your ionized water if you want to keep the good qualities of your water.

Boiling

I don’t recommend boiling your ionized water. When the ionized water is exposed to air it oxidizes and loses its antioxidant property. Boiling the water oxidizes the water very quickly and so it loses its ORP, making it more acidic.

Microwaving

Maybe you’d like to warm up a cup of water for tea or some such beverage. I tested the temperature of microwaved water up to 108 degrees and found that it didn’t affect the properties of the water that much. So, go ahead and warm up that mug of ionized water for a warm cup of tea or lemon water.

Freezing

I didn’t find that freezing ionized water had much effect on its good properties. The ORP went down slightly, but not too much. The pH hardly dropped at all. If you, like me, love ice in your water, I suggest getting yourself some stainless steel ice trays, filling them up with ionized water and sticking them in the freezer right away.


Adding Supplements

I highly recommend adding your electrolyte supplements, vitamins and minerals to your ionized water. The micro-clustering of the water helps you absorb even more of the supplement than you would in tap or bottled water.
