Kangen Water Oakland CA

What is Oakland CA Kangen Water?

Kangen Water in Oakland CA is ionized alkaline water (or acidic water) made by Enagic’s kangen water machine which is high in anti-oxidants and is hydrogen rich. It is converted from regular tap water into either acidic (Low PH) or alkaline water (High PH), depending on the setting (most kangen machines can produce water between 2.7 PH and 11.5 PH). Kangen water machines are very popular with families in Oakland and throughout the state of California.

It does so through a process called electrolysis, which is a technical term for electrocuting the water and splitting it into high PH (Alkaline) and low PH (Acidic), that’s why each kangen water machine has 2 tubes (hoses) coming out of it. One for Alkaline water and other for Acidic. Learn a little more about what is kangen water.

Leveluk K8

Leveluk K8 is currently the top of the line anti-oxidizing kagnen water machine that Enagic makes for home use. It has 8 platinum coated plates and is capable of making the highest ORP water.

Leveluk SD501

Leveluk SD501 is the most popular unit that has 7 platinum coated plates and has stood the test of time, while serving lots of people. It features voice system with English language. There is also the under counter model called Leveluk SD501U.

Leveluk SD 501 Platinum

Leveluk SD 501 Platinum is the fancier version of SD 501, it performs the same except for the fabulously good looks and ability to “speak” in 5 languages which are English, French, Italian, Spanish and German.

Leveluk JRII

Leveluk JRII looks like the SD 501 machine, but it only has 3 platinum coated plates. It produces water with much lower maximum ORP and has lower output. It is however great for energy conservation. The current version is JRIV with similar specs and higher price tag.

Leveluk Super 501

Leveluk Super 501 is basically a commercial grade kangen water machine. It has 2 output hoses and can make a LOT more water. I’ve seen suggestions that it’s for large families, but I think that K8 or SD 501 will do just fine at home.

How Do You Buy A Kangen Water Machine?

While I’m not directly involved in the sale of these machines, I can refer you to a couple of excellent individuals who serve as Enagic’s kangen water distributors. They operate websites where you can purchase a machine and have it conveniently delivered to your doorstep. The general rule is that if you require any technical assistance, you should contact your sponsor. Upon purchasing the machine, Enagic will promptly provide you with the sponsor’s contact information.

Given my busy schedule with my day job, I’m unable to offer support for technical inquiries (although I can certainly attest to the incredible health benefits of this water).

Kangen Water Machines and Their Benefits

Why opt for a kangen water machine over other water ionizers in Oakland CA when there are numerous brands vying for attention?

Here’s why I favor Enagic’s kangen machine:

1. Proven reliability: Enagic boasts a long-standing reputation and has cultivated a sizable community of kangen water enthusiasts. Did you know it’s the most sought-after brand of alkaline water?

2. Japanese craftsmanship: While some may overlook this aspect, I place great importance on it. Having witnessed firsthand the meticulousness and pride Japanese artisans pour into their craft, I have a profound appreciation and longing for their products.

3. Substance over hype: A key selling point for kangen water distributors lies in the superior quality of the platinum-coated plates, crucial for separating tap water into alkaline and acidic streams. Contrary to other manufacturers who often employ mesh plates, Enagic’s solid plates withstand scrutiny and speak volumes about the machine’s quality, despite the associated cost.

4. Longevity: With proper maintenance, kangen water machines are built to endure, often surpassing two decades in service. In contrast, I’ve observed numerous instances of premature failure with some heavily promoted competing brands.

What's Up With All Kangen Water Reviews?

With a plethora of reviews on kangen water machines circulating the web, it’s challenging to discern whom to trust when seeking a machine for yourself, your family, or your workplace. The online landscape is rife with both praise and criticism, leaving consumers in a quandary. Even trusted sources like the BBB and Consumer Reports are marred by reviews sponsored by competitors, disparaging the products they rival.

When scouring reviews from various outlets regarding a company such as Enagic or a product like the Leveluk 501 Kangen Water Machine, it’s imperative to scrutinize the source’s affiliations (be it a competitor’s website, company, or salesperson pushing their own product) to gauge potential bias.

One telltale sign is the presence of an affiliate link redirecting you to platforms like Amazon, where alternative products, such as other water ionizers, are available for purchase.

Are There Health Benefits To Drinking Kangen Water?

While the abundance of information, coupled with some misinformation, regarding the advantages of exclusively consuming kangen water can be overwhelming, one fact remains unequivocal: it does not possess the capability to cure diseases. Any assertion suggesting otherwise is misleading. While there may be instances where this water aids certain individuals in managing serious health conditions like cancer, it unequivocally cannot be deemed a “cure for cancer” or any other ailment, regardless of its severity.

In terms of reported benefits, many individuals attest that following the recommended intake (minimum of 0.5 gallons or about 2 liters per day) for over a week leads to various noticeable improvements, such as:

– Enhanced mental clarity
– Sustainable energy boost without subsequent crashes (unlike energy drinks)
– Improved quality and duration of sleep
– Enhanced hydration, as the body absorbs kangen water more effectively
– Radiant skin
– Thicker hair for those previously experiencing issues

These outcomes predominantly represent lifestyle enhancements rather than direct health benefits.

Different Types of Kangen Water Uses and Benefits

According to Enagic’s official website and my personal experience, there are 5 types of water that kangen machines make:

Strong Kangen Water (11.5 PH Most Alkaline)
Drinking Water (8.5 to 9.5 PH Alkaline)
Neutral, Clean Water (7 PH Neutral)
Beauty Water (4 to 6 PH Slightly Acidic)
Strong Acidic Water (2.7 PH Most Acidic)

Each type of water has specific properties and can be used for different things in and around the house.

Powerful Kangen Water – This highly alkaline water boasts intriguing properties and serves multiple purposes:

1. Cleansing – Instead of relying on chemical-laden household cleaners, utilize Strong Kangen Water for wiping down kitchen counters, stovetops, and other grimy surfaces.
2. Food Cleansing and Preparation – Its unique composition makes Strong Kangen Water ideal for removing oil-based pesticides from store-bought fruits and vegetables. A demonstration video showcasing this efficacy will be available soon.
3. Stain Removal – Whether it’s carpets, rugs, upholstery, hard surfaces, or garments, Strong Kangen Water proves effective, although it’s not a suitable replacement for bleach.

Kangen Water for Hydration – The spotlight shines on this variation of water generated by Kangen machines, boasting a pH range between 8.5 and 9.5, perfectly suited for:

1. Hydration – As the name implies, aim to consume water equivalent to your body weight in ounces daily for optimal hydration. For instance, if you weigh 150 lbs, your daily intake should be 150 oz (approximately 1.17 gallons).
2. Culinary Applications – Incorporate it into soups, broths, stews, and homemade sauces for enhanced flavor and health benefits.
3. Pre-cooking – Certain food items require boiling before further preparation, and Kangen drinking water serves this purpose admirably.
4. Beverages – From lemonade to coffee and tea, Kangen drinking water enhances the taste profile of various drinks due to its smaller molecular size, resulting in a bolder flavor. A forthcoming video will demonstrate this effect.
5. Plant Watering – While conventional wisdom suggests acidic water is preferable for plants, Enagic’s assertion that plants thrive on Kangen drinking water warrants experimentation before full adoption.

Neutral, Purified Water – Enagic promotes this Kangen water variant as “Chlorine-Free,” yet my experience indicates residual chlorine necessitates a pre-filtration system for complete removal. So, what benefits does pH 7 Kangen water offer?

1. Baby Food Preparation – Ensure your child receives clean water without excessive pH alteration.
2. Medication Consumption – Enagic advises consuming medication with this specific water to mitigate any adverse reactions.

These are the primary applications for neutral pH Kangen water.

Kangen Beauty Water is designed to address the natural acidity of our skin, which is often disrupted by the alkalinity of soaps and body gels used during bathing. This imbalance is rectified by Kangen beauty water, offering various applications:

1. Face Cleansing: Simply wash your face with water that closely matches your skin’s pH. Some find it hydrating, while others appreciate its soothing properties and the resulting radiant glow.

2. Hair Care: Instead of solely relying on shampoo and conditioner, Enagic recommends using shampoo for cleaning and Kangen beauty water for conditioning hair, promoting shine and preventing tangling.

3. Pet Care: Extend the benefits to your pets by spraying them with beauty water and brushing their fur immediately after, ensuring they stay clean and shiny.

4. Polishing: Beauty water is effective for polishing glass, mirrors, windows, and similar surfaces, offering a practical yet straightforward utility.

5. Food Preservation: Utilize 4 to 4.5 pH water to spray food before freezing to maintain its flavor until consumption, offering a unique way to preserve freshness.

Strong Acidic Water, with a pH of 2.7, serves a different purpose and should not be ingested. It can be utilized for:

1. Surface Disinfection: Ideal for disinfecting various surfaces including kitchen knives, countertops, toilet seats, door knobs, handles, and surgical utensils, although alcohol remains a preferred choice for many.

2. Personal Hygiene: Use strong acidic water to disinfect personal items like toothbrushes or as a mouthwash substitute, ensuring not to ingest it.

While these applications showcase the versatility of Kangen Water, its most popular use undoubtedly remains as drinking water.

Is Kangen Water a Scam?

Enagic, headquartered in Japan with global offices, manufactures and distributes Kangen water machines, including in California. With over 30 years of industry presence, the company operates on a Multi-Level Marketing (MLM) sales model.

Despite attempts by some competitors to discredit Kangen water as a scam, it remains a legitimate product. However, competitors often propagate misinformation and “fake news” about Enagic and its offerings while subtly promoting their own products.

Investing in a Kangen water machine entails paying a premium price for a premium product, a point I’ll delve into further below.

Who's Behind Water Ionizer “comparison sheets” and “Buyer’s Guides”?

Why do comparisons often pit Kangen water machines like the Leveluk SD501 or K8 against “other” water ionizers, consistently portraying Kangen machines as either inferior in performance, more expensive, or both? Interestingly, there’s a notable absence of Enagic engaging in such comparative exercises with other manufacturers, perhaps indicating they don’t feel the need to do so. Ultimately, it’s advisable to form your own conclusions.

On another note, buyer guides and free e-books are a separate matter altogether. Every water ionizer company aims to “educate” prospective buyers, yet in reality, they’re primarily focused on selling what they claim to be the best alkaline water machine available.

Kangen Water Wiki and What Does Wikipedia Have To Say

There isn’t an abundance of information specifically dedicated to Kangen water, but there’s a fair amount about water ionizers, also known as alkaline ionizers. You can find more details [here]. The page explains the fundamentals of how these appliances work, discusses alkaline diets, notes the lack of medical evidence supporting health benefits, and delves into the chemistry and health-related assertions. It might not be the most riveting read. Just bear in mind that the content is authored by individuals who may or may not have biases.
