Intracellular Hydration

Water is a strong solvent, carrying many invisible ingredients such as minerals, oxygen, nutrients, waste products, pollutants, etc. Sea water is salty because over time, it dissolved minerals and salts from the mountains and carried them down stream to the ocean. Inside the human body, blood (90% of which is water) circulates, distributing nutrients & oxygen, and collecting wastes & carbon dioxides, delivering them to the disposal organs. If water was not a strong solvent, it could not perform these functions.

A water molecule is H2O; that is two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom stuck together. The shape of the water molecule is like a Mickey Mouse face (the head is oxygen and the two ears are hydrogen). Since oxygen is electrically negative and hydrogen is positive, the water molecule is electrically polarized. For this reason, a water molecule cannot exist independently; it must combine with other water molecules to form a five or six-sided structure called a water cluster. In lower temperatures, most of the structures are hexagonal: snow flakes are hexagonal.



Since alkaline water has more OHs than H+s, there are more oxygen atoms in it than in neutral water; that’s why alkaline water is sometimes called oxygen rich water. In the same manner, acid water is oxygen deficient water. An interesting trivial fact is that there are approximately 1025 H2O molecules in a 10 ounce glass of water. If that water has a pH value of 10, there are approximately 1021 hydroxyl ions (OH-) and approximately 1015hydrogen ions (H+). The number of hydrogen ions is one millionth of that of hydroxyl ions, which is negligible.


The Purposes of Hydration

The body must continuously be in a proper state of hydration. Because 2.5 liters of water is lost each day through normal bodily functions, this must be replaced. There are two major issues that emphasize the need to keep the body adequately hydrated, with water of the best quality, content, and structure so it can maintain homeostasis.




Structured or Coherent Water

Much research has been conducted on the effects of energized water on the body’s response systems. Reports from studies suggest that energized water (also called structured or clustered) can help the body resist disease and slow aging by:

  • Increasing Intracellular Hydration
  • Replacing Depleted Essential Minerals
  • Stabilizing and Protecting Cells
  • Helping To Maintain Normal Blood Flow and pH
  • Flushing Out and Preventing Wastes from Accumulating in Cells
  • Preventing Free Radicals from Forming

Water with added trace minerals can maintain its right balance because of its high mineral content. The most unique feature of energized water is the formation and organization of its molecules. Energized water is naturally formed of smaller molecular clusters, that have a higher density than other water. The smaller molecule clusters make it easier for water to pass readily through cell membranes into the nucleus, for better delivery of nutrients, and removal of toxins & waste materials from the cells.
