What Is Kangen Water – How The Enagic Machines Work (Updated 2024)

Kangen Water is created from Enagic’s innovative water technology. The devices filter your tap water, but they also produce ionized alkaline and acidic waters through electrolysis. These waters can be used for various purposes, including drinking, cooking, beauty, and cleaning.

Introduction to Kangen Water

Kangen means “return to origin” in Japanese. For more than 40 years, Kangen Water has been used in Japan to help restore the body to its original, alkaline state. These machines can transform your ordinary tap water into healthy, fresh-tasting alkaline drinking water. Kangen Water® is superior to tap and purified water. 


The Properties of Kangen Water

Water that is Hydrogen-rich has a high concentration of Molecular Hydrogen (H2). Molecular Hydrogen is an efficient antioxidant that diffuses rapidly across cell membranes and can reduce free radicals, suppressing oxidative stress. Through the process of electrolysis, your tap water becomes Hydrogen-rich Kangen Water. 

Oxidation

Oxidation reactions in the body can produce free radicals, while antioxidants terminate these reactions. Elevated rates of oxidants and insufficient antioxidants in the body cause oxidative stress.  A constant supply of external sources of antioxidants should be part of one‘s daily diet, to reduce oxidative stress and related damage. This is why everyone should not only care about the quantity of the water we drink but also about the quality. Both are essential for our wellbeing. 

Alkaline

As with most things in life, optimal health begins with balance. Our bodies must maintain a pH balance of 7.365, which is slightly alkaline. A pH scale is used to determine whether a substance is acidic or alkaline. On this scale 7.0 is neutral. Anything above 7 is considered alkaline and anything below 7 is considered acidic. 

Negative ORP (Oxidation-Reduction Potential)

Hydrogen-rich water is characterized by exhibiting a negative ORP. A high ORP value (in positive numbers), indicates that a substance has a higher oxidizing potential. In generalized terms, for humans, a positive or high ORP is better for the outside of the body (cleaning and sanitizing).

A low ORP value (in negative numbers) indicates that a substance has a higher antioxidizing potential, and is preferred for oral consumption.
Just like pH, ORP values are an important measurement for determining the quality of water. 

Introduction to the machines

By integrating the latest scientific research and superior Japanese craftsmanship with nature’s most vital resource for life, Enagic has pioneered the way of continuous Kangen Water generating systems. Since 1974, Enagic has specialized in providing in-home, alkaline water ionization technologies. Their mission is to provide true health and wellness internationally with our Gold-Standard product line.
