Great! You discovered the amazing world of ionized water!
Enagic’s™ multi-level-marketing sales team is doing a great job spreading the message of alkaline, ionized water throughout the world. This website is designed to help assemble the vast information in the industry to aid in your decision-making process. Here are the most common questions asked by a visitor that learns of ionized water through an Enagic™ (Kangen) representative:
1. Is Enagic’s™ Kangen water the “one and only”?
NO! Kangen water is a “brand name” for alkaline, ionized water, the same way “Xerox” is a brand name for a photocopy. Most Enagic™ representatives will have you believe there is something different or better about Kangen water, simply because products sold through a multi-level-marketing program require exclusivity, otherwise they often fail to be competitive in the marketplace. There are many good alkaline water ionizers on the market today, and we review and rate them from good to best.
2. Is there a better Ionizer than Enagic™?
YES!, though “better” is a subjective term. According to our independent and objective method of testing, there are several units that outperform the Enagic™, both in terms of pH and ORP, the two measurable ionization standards. Watch the video below (recorded in early 2007 by IR Founder Rob Gray) to see for yourself how Enagic™ compares to the Tyent MMP-5050 (since replaced by the 7070, the 7070T and 9090TX)and Jupiter’s Aquarius (since replaced by the Athena). Remember, Enagic’s™ unit has not changed since this video was created 4 years ago.

3. Is there a less expensive water ionizer?
YES! Since Enagic’s™ unit is presently the most expensive on the market, ALL other ionizers are less expensive (and some even perform better; see video above) than the SD-501. Keep in mind that Enagic™ pays out more than $2650 in multi-level marketing commission for each ionizer sold, which is why the price is so high. Several more advanced ionizers are available for less money. Utilize the resources on this site to make the best decision for your investment.
4. Is ionized water really beneficial?
YES! Although ionization technology is relatively new in American medicine, 1 in 6 households in Japan and Korea owns an ionizer. This in a result of the American medical philosophy (which treats symptoms), as opposed to prevention through healthy decisions. However, many western mainstream doctors, research scientists, and other wellness professionals agree that maintaining a strong alkaline environment inside your body is critical to overall health. And a water ionizer is an abundant source of high-pH alkaline water and minerals. Study the science of ionized water to learn more!

Can you make a recommendation as to a company that can provide a good quality water ionizer? Thanks.
Does Home Depot or Sears carry or sell kangan water?
does acidic water on kengen help the gums if so how often
Hello Robert,
Acid water from any good ionizer is great for your gums. If you have any issues, always check with your dentist before using acid water. What you may not know is that the term Kangen is simply a brand name for alkaline, ionized water. Kangen uses chemicals to achieve extreme levels which is my major problem with their unit. There are many great chemical free units available.
Hello Martha,
Did you know Kangen is simply a brand of Alkaline, ionized water. There are many companies that sell water ionizers. Unfortunately Sears does not carry water ionizers but there is several repeatable companies that sell water ionizers online. Do some research and find which ionizer is best for you!
Hello, I am looking to pruchase a ionizer soon. I am wondering what you would reccomend.
The Kangen is pricy.
Also what is your opinion on Alkaline sticks ?
Thanks Dave
Hello Ivan,
There are quite a few good quality ionizer manufacturers out there. What is important to you when you are looking at ionizers? Is it price, style, warranty, water levels? Maybe I can compare and contrast a few different ionizers if you have compiled a list.
hmmm. Enagic claims their SD501 is the only ionizer manufactured that is a medical device anywhere in the world…in Japan by a prestegious group of medical doctors (6500) for the prevention of adult diseases; and in Canada. Also, that the water from the SD501 is also the only water produced in the world that has the gold seal certification from the Water Quality Association (WQA); also of substantial merit.. no other ionizer marketer seems to publish this. Please exlain why ?
Hi Dave,
Enagic claims there SD501 is the only ionizer in the world registered as a medical device? I hope this is not true as it would simply be another lie. Water ionizers are registered medical devices in Japan and Korea as well as many other countries. I also do not share your opinion of the WQA as an organization of “substantial merit”. The best analogy I have heard was the comparison of the WQA to a Library. Anyone can become a member but you will have to pay for that membership. Simply put, any water ionizer company can spend up to $35,000 and receive a Gold seal of approval. Money is the only thing it takes to have that little golden circle of approval. Take a moment and contact the WQA and ask what are the qualifications to become a gold seal owner. They will name their price. 630 505 0160
