Everything You Need to Know About ORP
under attack
Your body is under attack!
Food, drink, stress, pollution, and even exercise all contribute to this. Free radicals can cause cell mutations, wrinkles and aging, damage vital immune functions, and are believed to be a contributing cause behind many diseases, including cancer, heart disease, strokes, arthritis, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, cataracts and many others; the only known solution to preventing free radical damage is the daily consumption of a steady diet of foods rich in antioxidants. You can help the fight - with negative (-)ORP water!
Negative ORP is GOOD ORP!
What exactly is ORP?
ORP stands for Oxidation Reduction Potential (also referred to as "Redox"). Most leading water researchers agree that, with water, an elevated pH is good, but that ORP is even more important. Changing the ORP is what causes the micro-clustering, antioxidant and oxygenating effects.
What we are actually measuring with an ORP meter is the presence of oxidizing agents, thus Oxidation Reduction "Potential". High pH water has more antioxidants (-ORP) and low pH water has more oxidizing agents (+ORP).
brown apple and rusty can
Oxidation is what turns an apple brown after it is cut or causes metal to rust. Rust weakens metal and signifies the deterioration of the apple. It is also what causes so many problems and diseases within the human body. When a substance has a +ORP, it means it is oxidizing and causing free radical damage.
An antioxidant is simply something that inhibits or slows this process of oxidation. The ORP of most tap water in the USA is between +200 to +600mv and so is an oxidizing agent.
There's a reason glacial streams are so beautiful...
Not only are they pure, but they are blue with minerals. This water tastes different and even seems to enter the body lightly. However, these minerals are there not just to offer you those elements your system lacks, but also to 'hold' the real secret of glacial water; it's antioxidant power. This water has strong, pure ions that actively seek out free radicals that are already wreaking havoc on our bodies at a cellular level!
