Kangen® Water and activated water – what is the difference?

Kangen Water® is the registered brand description for activated water of the Japanese traditional company EnagicTM, existing since 2005, which is produced by an ionizer device made by this company. In Europe, for example, these devices under the description LevelukTM offered by multi level marketing companies are similar to other devices in the assembly and the electrolysis performance. The description Kangen® Water in the operating instructions is only used for activated alkaline water with a pH 8,5, pH 9, pH 9,5 and pH 11. Filtered and acidic water is not described as Kangen® Water. Kangen® Water is high quality alkaline activated water.

pH 11 water is no drinking water. Therefore “Strong Kangen® Water” (>pH 11) has a warning sign not to drink it. One can remove persistent, greasy stains with it, rinse fish, meat and vegetables with it and use it to clean the floor.

There is a special feature to the LevelukTM devices: To create “Strong Acidic Water” (Anolyte) and “Strong Kangen® Water” (Catholyte), these devices are equipped with a liquid tank which has an „Electrolysis Enhancer for producing strong Acidic Water“ made exclusively by the Enagic Osaka Factory, which upon choosing the operating level will mix the correct dosage of water to it.

This liquid electrolysis enhancer differentiates itself from a usual saline solution (NaCl) in water due to the fact that it also contains sodium hypochlorite (NaClO – hypochlorite acid or also „Eau de Labarraque“). Sodium hypochlorite is, for example, the active component of disinfecting and bleaching household cleaning agents and is also promoted as “active chlorine”.

I cannot detect a necessity for this supplement, since mixing common salt to any water ionizer through the supply pipe for salt crystals anyhow creates big amounts of hypochlorite acids in the anode chamber. Hypochlorite acid is the decisive active agent of anolyte, in terms of disinfection power of oxidative water. I presume, that hypochlorite additives in the “Electrolysis Enhancer” are especially used for the saline solution to keep it stable in a germ free condition. The small bottles also have no sell-by date.
Also industrial devices used to create anolyte work with liquid salt (Sole), since it can be dosed more accurately with a so called “Venturi-pump” compared to the addition of salt crystals, which dissolve in varying amounts and varying speeds in water.

As distinguished from industrial devices, which have an exact flow rate control of the feedwater at their disposal, the LevelukTM devices cannot regulate the water flow rate exactly, since a real-time display is missing.

So you have to guesstimate with the water tap, since the device can only be connected with the diverter faucet.

The problem can be solved with an alternative water connection, which is in exact alignment with the flow rate and therefore guarantees constant results.
