The AlkaTech Ioniser produces Alkaline Water
In 1931, Otto Warburg was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine for his discovery of the ferment of respiration. His nobel speach "The oxygen-transferring ferment of respiration" discusses the intricate miracle of ordinary cellular combustion with oxygen (which he calls respiration), and the reaction without oxygen - just with sugar (fermentation), which is basically cancer. Furthermore, that the body can only become diseased when in an acidic state (pH level below 7.0). This is true of all diseases from the common cold to cancer.

The optimum pH is 7.4. At that pH the immune system is usually able to maintain a healthy body. When the body pH drops below 7.0, acid waste builds up. A modern diet can be extremely acidic - soft drinks, processed food, red meat, dairy and sugar all deposit acid waste in our bodies creating an ideal environment for various diseases to thrive. Ionised alkaline water may flush out acid wastes from our body.

Beverage	pH
Cola	2.5
Diet soft drink	3.2
Beer	4.7
Distilled water	5.4
Reverse Osmosis filtered water	5.2
Bottled water	7
Ionised alkaline water	10.0

If you put a single 8-ounce glass of cola into 10 gallons of water, it slashes the pH from 7.4 to 4.6 - very acidic. Your body consists of about 10 gallons of water, which is supposed to be slightly alkaline.

The AlkaTech Ioniser produces an abundance of Hydroxyl Ions
Dr. Otto Warburg demonstrated the basic difference between normal cells and cancer cells. Both derive energy from glucose, but the normal cell requires oxygen to combine with the glucose, while cancer cells break down glucose without oxygen, yielding only 1/15th the energy per glucose molecule than a normal cell produces. This is why cancer cells have such a huge appetite for sugar, and also why people who consume excessive quantities of sugar have a higher susceptibility to cancer. Controlling cancer can be done by controlling the oxygen and/or controlling the things that free up oxygen (e.g. ionized water). Oxygen therapies are one of the most widely used cancer therapies world-wide because they provide oxygen to the cancer cells - something they cannot bio-adapt to survive in. They are safe and effective. It has been clinically demonstrated that the spread or metastatis of cancer is directly proportional to the amount of oxygen around the cancer cells. The more oxygen, the slower the cancer spreads. The less oxygen, the faster the cancer spreads. If cancer cells get enough oxygen, they will die (cancer cells are anaerobic). Ionised water provides extra oxygen atoms in the form of Hydroxyl ions (OH-) that not only slow down the spread of cancer, but also kills cancer cells.

The AlkaTech Ioniser reduces the water molecule cluster size
Typical municipal water has water moleclue clusters ranging from 10 to 13 molecules per cluster. Ionised water contains water molecule clusters consisting of 5 or 6 molecules per cluster. According to Dr. Hayashi, of the Japanese Water Institute, this smaller cluster size means that it gains the ability to penetrate tissue and cell walls far more easily. This is easy to understand considering the smaller size. Technically, the hydrating benefits of smaller clustered water are due to the change in water tension.

Better hydration has been claimed to help depression, arthritis, chronic pain, PMS, acid indigestion, ulcers and fatigue. This is why many people experience detoxification effects in the first few weeks of drinking the water, as it infiltrates areas that have not been reachable with ordinary H2O.

The AlkaTech Ioniser produces Ionically Charged Minerals
An ionic mineral is an element that has a charge, either positive or negative. On the molecular level, that means that the element has either one too many or one too few electrons. This unstable ionic state allows the element to bond readily with water, making it possible for the body to absorb it. In this state, an element has specific positive or negative electrical signatures that cause a dynamic equilibrium to take place. The body can then facilitate changes to move nutrients to the areas that need them, and studies show the effective use of ionized water on bone formation even in calcium deficient diets.

Prior to ionisation water contains inorganic minerals, which the body can not make direct use of - they have neither an electrical attraction or a molecule of carbon making them organic, which is the other directly usable mineral form.

The AlkaTech Ioniser induces a highly detoxifying negative electrical potential to the water
Electron transfer, when causing a change in standard potential (i.e. positive/negative) alters compound toxicity. Effectively speaking, pollutants are positively charged. This the 'magentic' effect of negatively charged water on polutants will see their elimination from the body. Two explanatory examples:

1, (intoxication) The highest negative electrical charge in the body is the thyroid gland -not surprising this gland is such a toxin magnet, and that it is easily x-rayed with toxic radioactive iodine because that form of iodine is strongly drawn there. Thyroid dysfunction, diagnosed or not, is extremely common to modern society.

2, (detoxification) Many of us are familiar with such means of detoxification as salt baths and seaweed or mud/clay body wraps - but why do these methods work? The reason is electromagnetic. These 'foods', especially clay, have extremely high negative electrical charges, pulling positively charged toxins out of the body and into the negatively charged clay/mud medium. Consuming ionized water internally will have the same detoxifying effect, pulling toxins into the water for subsequent urinal discharge.
