This is a blog all about water ionizers, comparing water ionizers and how ionized water creates a cell environment that is healthy for a disease-free life-style. Get ready to be educated!
The Ukrainian Ultra Runner, Stuisheel Oleg Lebediev, recently ran the official longest race in the world. The race was 3100 miles long in NY from June to August 2014.
Lebediev was advised by his naturopathic doctor to start drinking Chanson water while training for his race. He started with Level 1 and then switched to Level 2 Chanson water. On his 48 day race, he experienced on the 6th day that his legs felt new again. He averaged 64 miles per day, and the last three days he ran 70 miles or more.
The Chanson water ionizer helped this Ultra Runner hit his personal best and recover much faster than he thought possible! If you have an active lifestyle, alkaline water can help you too!

Did you know that if you only drank bottled water for a year at 100oz a day, you would spend between $1400 and $3650 depending on the brand of bottled water. And that is only for one year! Tap water is much much cheaper, at less than $1 per day.
Bottled water is often lightly filtered tap water which makes the high price more outrageous. I have tested a wide variety of bottled waters and there are very few that have an alkaline pH or negative ORP like alkaline ionized water. Here is a video of me testing out a wide variety of bottled waters:
Very often, they actually have an acidic pH, so you are overpaying for acidic water! There is a lot of advertising and hype that goes along with bottled water, there are some people who do not drink anything but bottled water. In fact, the Natural Resource Defense Council says this on their website
"1. Isn't bottled water safer than tap water? "No, not necessarily. NRDC conducted a four-year review of the bottled water industry and the safety standards that govern it, including a comparison of national bottled water rules with national tap water rules, and independent testing of over 1,000 bottles of water. Our conclusion is that there is no assurance that just because water comes out of a bottled it is any cleaner or safer than water from the tap. And in fact, an estimated 25 percent or more of bottled water is really just tap water in a bottle -- sometimes further treated, sometimes not. "2. Is bottled water actually unsafe? "Most bottled water appears to be safe. Of the bottles we tested, the majority proved to be high quality and relatively free of contaminants. The quality of some brands was spotty, however, and such products may pose a health risk, primarily for people with weakened immune systems (such as the frail elderly, some infants, transplant and cancer patients, or people with HIV/AIDS). About 22 percent of the brands we tested contained, in at least one sample, chemical contaminants at levels above strict state health limits. If consumed over a long period of time, some of these contaminants could cause cancer or other health problems. "3. Could the plastic in water bottles pose a health risk? "Recent research suggests that there could be cause for concern, and that the issue should be studied closely. Studies have shown that chemicals called phthalates, which are known to disrupt testosterone and other hormones, can leach into bottled water over time. One study found that water that had been stored for 10 weeks in plastic and in glass bottles contained phthalates, suggesting that the chemicals could be coming from the plastic cap or liner. Although there are regulatory standards limiting phthalates in tap water, there are no legal limits for phthalates in bottled water -- the bottled water industry waged a successful campaign opposing the FDA proposal to set a legal limit for these chemicals."

Instead of buying all of this bottled water, it would be wise to invest in an alkaline water ionizer. You would get a much higher quality of water for less cost! Depending on the ionizer that you buy, it could pay for itself within a year! See our water ionizer comparison chart to see which water ionizer would best suit you. There are many many choices in the water ionizer arena, and it can get confusing to someone who is new to the idea. Our comparison chart is made for the new-comers to alkaline water. It is very extensive and is based on years of our own testing and comparing water ionizers. https://www.alkalinewaterplus.com/water-ionizer-comparisons/

I have recently been seeing more alkaline water choices in the grocery stores. You can get bottled alkaline water at many grocery and health stores. I want to go over why this is not the best way to get your alkaline water.
Bottled alkaline water has to be stored in a very specific way in order to keep the pH and ORP properly. If you store it with any air in the bottle, the ORP can dramatically drop in as little as one day. See the video below to see how to properly store ionized water.
Most bottles that you would buy in the grocery store, are plastic and do not store alkaline water well. So, if you have bottles sitting on the shelves of a grocery store filled with alkaline water, it will very likely not be as alkaline as it was when it was ionized.
The best way to drink alkaline water is to pour it from your ionizer and drink it right away. This way it has the best ORP and pH that it could. But, if you are going to store alkaline water for any period of time, the best container we have found is our vacuum seal stainless steel bottles. They will store the pH and even the ORP! This is almost unheard of. See our product page for more details: https://www.alkalinewaterplus.com/store/accessories/vacuum-sealed-stainless-bottles-set/
If you want the best water for you, the best thing to do is to get your own water ionizer. Pick one that is right for you. Then you can pour and drink healthy alkaline ionized water whenever you want!
