WHAT IS WATER IONIZERS?

A water lonizer is a home appliance which claims to raise the pH of drinking water by using electrolysis to separate the incoming water stream into acidic and alkaline components. The alkaline stream of the treated water is called alkaline water.

Proponents claim that consumption of alkaline water results in a variety of health benefits, making it similar to the alternative health practice of alkaline diets. Such claims violate basic principles of chemistry and physiology. There is no medical evidence for any health benefits of alkaline water. Extensive scientific evidence has completely debunked these claims.

The machines originally became popular in Japan and other East Asian countries before becoming available in the US and Europe.

HOW IT IS DIFFRENT FROM RO?

Alkaline water enhances the pH level of your drinking water, in contrast to RO water which makes it more acidic. As we've touched on already. RO removes all the minerals but this also has an adverse effect on the pH level.

In order to improve the pit and give RO water healthy mineral content it has to be put through an ionizer machine, this means extra time and a whole lot of extra money. An alkaline water fitter combines these processes in a way that is more accessible, affordable and sustainable.
