The fact is, water can appear clear and contaminant-free but can be fatal if consumed in a small dose or over a period of time. Unsafe water can even taste good, but can still contain dangerous contaminants such as arsenic, lead, radiologicals, bacteria, synthetic organic compounds and disinfections byproducts. Additionally, adds Marianne R. Metzger, business […]

ORP in your blood?
We’ve been talking about ORP for as long as we’ve been in business – over 13 years. For those of you not aware of it, it’s an indication of the antioxidant power (or oxidant power) of water. An Oxidation/Reduction Potential meter measures the positive or negative electrical charge of the water in millivolts. We’ve come quite […]
How Much is ‘enough’ water?
There is just SO much misinformation on the web about how we should approach the concept of hydration. I recently read a Choice Magazine article on enhanced water, and with the article it claimed that tea and coffee do NOT dehydrate us, claiming scientific studies as proof. I think many of us are confused, and […]
Keegan Smith Trains on AlkaWay Water
A BACKPACKER who chose sleeping on the floor of a Mexican Mayan village over a senior NRL conditioning role is the secret weapon behind the Sydney Roosters’ premiership push. Keegan Smith, son of veteran NRL coach Brian, has revolutionised dieting and strength training at the Roosters this season.Smith is so highly rated as a conditioning […]
What has a bee and me have in common?
I just read a quite scary article about the findings of scientists studying bee deaths in the US. At first, research identified one range of pesticides called neonicotinoids as the culprit. So the answer was to remove these pesticides from farms, right? Well, now another group of scientists have come up with a more chilling […]
More contaminants found in Bottled water
Some people are aware that plastic containers leach endocrine-disrupting compounds into food and water. Given that the term “endocrine-disrupting” is thrown around a lot, it’s important you understand what this means. Your endocrine system produces hormones that act as chemical messengers that govern certain processes in the body (such as sexual development in young people). […]
A Real Good News Water Story
We are all acutely aware that water is the new ‘gold’ and I expect that much of the conflict, especially in the third world, is about the right to drink water. Whose water where? So this good news story from Kenya is really a breath of fresh air to me. Underground water reserves discovered in […]
Cairo Egypt? No, Cairo USA has water problems.
CAIRO Illinois residents say the city’s tap water doesn’t look safe to drink after some new changes from the water company. Cairo citizens are now getting their water supply from the ground, rather than the Ohio River, due to repairs at the water treatment plant. Many say they are not happy with the quality of […]
pH vs. AlkalInity and Acid
pH is different than acidity. pH is just a measurement of the activity of the H3O+ ion. Acidity is an intrinsic property of the molecule and has reference the its pKa. In other words one molecule like HCl will become H+ and Cl- virtually 100% in water (pKa -9.3), but something like acetic acid will […]
New Report: 100+ studies of alkaline water
Yes, it’s arrived. Grab it here. It’s been a long and pretty boring debate between ‘regular’ water filter vendors and alkaline water vendors, but frankly, the party is over. A hundred studies from around the world absolutely conclude that given the choice of drinking alkaline water and neutral or acid water, you’re better off on […]
ANOTHER (!) amazing scientific study on Hydrogen water!
This Japanese study is a beauty! It is quite a large one and includes conclusions on the use of hydrogen water (the same as that produced by the UltraStream) for Cognitive decline, Parkinson’s Disease, Atherosclerosis, Metabolic Syndrome, adverse effects of chemotherapy, allegic reactions. Not only that, how’s this for a powerpacked paragraph? “It has been […]
Rheumatoid Arthritis: Study shows hydrogen water may assist.
Hydrogen water is what we do. Using O-Dobi Media in our UltraStream filter we create water with High (higher than normal H2O) levels of hydrogen. We also increase vital levels of magnesium and calcium but that’s another benefit I will touch on later. Up until now this involved the purchase of a complex and expensive […]
