Essentia Water uses a proprietary process called Ionic Separation. There are two ions in water. One is negatively charged (alkaline) and the other is positively charged (acidic). This process uses electrolysis to electrically split water into alkaline and acidic streams. We bottle only the alkaline stream. In doing so, we are bottling the water that has had the acidic ion removed, which naturally raises the pH of the remaining water.

Definitely. However drinking Essentia Water will not by itself insure a properly pH balanced system. Essentia Water was designed to assist the body in neutralizing acidic conditions. The benefit of a properly balanced system is lower incidence and severity of infections such as colds, the flu and other infections.

Simply stated, Litmus Papers cannot be used to determine the pH of clean water or exceptionally pure waters like Essentia. Chemicals on the litmus strip actually alter the pH as the water is being tested. The TDS (total dissolved solids) of a tested liquid must be above 150 to 200 ppm (parts per million) to initiate a sufficient reaction on pH paper.

Essentia Water is non-source dependent, which means Essentia can be produced and bottled anywhere in the world using virtually any water source. Essentia currently uses municipal water as its source supply. The water is completely purified using a filtration and reverse osmosis process that reduces TDS (total dissolved solids) down to approximately 3 ppm (parts per million).

You can find Essentia in most natural and health food stores across the country. Essentia can also be found in the health food sections of many major supermarkets as well as a growing number of fitness centers, spas and offices of healthcare practitioners. In circumstances where Essentia may not be available in your area, Essentia Water would be pleased to ship directly to your home or office. (Click here for the “BUY ESSENTIA” page)

Essentia’s proprietary process “Ionic Separation” produces “thinner” water, also referred to as structured or clustered water. This process removes most of the acidic ions in the water, resulting in a smoother, sweeter tasting water with no harsh, mineral aftertaste.

It is well known that the body fluids of healthy people tend to be more alkaline (high pH) and the body fluids of sick or diseased people are acidic ( low pH). Healthy blood, spinal fluid and saliva are normally at a pH of 7.4. This alkaline state is necessary for cell growth, cell function and cell repair. It has been proven that cancer cannot grow in an alkaline solution because an alkaline solution will hold oxygen at a high level (Cause and Prevention of Cancer, Biochem Zeits, 152: 514-520).

The AQ-4000 will reduce TDS, iron, and rust down to .5 microns (40 times smaller than what is visible to the human eye).

All wells in the system in both Grimes and Montgomery Counties are tapped into the same aquifer and consequently have a close pH range of around 7.1 - 7.27. (Note: pH is measured on a scale of 0 to 14. A pH of 7 is neutral, a pH level above 7 indicates alkalinity, and pH levels of less than 7 indicate acidity.)

The smaller water clusters, “thinner water”, of Essentia Water are more efficient in passing into and out of the body’s cells. Regular water requires conditioning in order to be accepted by the cell. This process takes time and results in a backup of ingested water, giving this bloated sensation. Essentia Water has a lower surface tension giving the water a characteristic described as “silky” by those drinking it.

Everyone has different water intake requirements. The rule of thumb is to drink half your body weight in ounces daily. For example, if you weight 100 lbs, convention would suggest you drink at least 50oz (one 1.5 liter) daily. Your level of activity, environment, diet and stress levels should be taken into consideration, as all of these determine your water intake requirement.

In the “Ionic Separation” process, we free up active hydrogen. The most efficient scavenger of free radicals is active hydrogen.

A lower number means more acidic and a higher number means it is more alkaline. A pH saliva reading of 7.5 is excellent and most children will register at this healthy reading. Most adults tend to register at a pH of 6.5 or lower which indicates a calcium deficiency. If your body's pH is not balanced, you cannot effectively assimilate vitamins, minerals and food supplements.

Although the pH of your sparge water is not going to make or break your mash, for maximum sparge efficiency, the pH of sparge water should be 5.8 to 6.0

Hi, I'm doing a science project on hydroponic farming, using the Water Culture method, i need to know how to get the best results, especially with pea plants & carrots, if anyone can give me some advice, than post it on the bulletin board, please address it to J.S. of Fl hi ! i am interested in starting a hydroponic vegetable garden as a business, what size should the garden be to be commercially viable ? would appreciate a reply.

the level of 8.5 to 9 of pH value, water is best absorbed into the body. However, neutral tap water or acidic water produced from a R/O system may not be suitable for you temporarily due to large difference of mineral content. Therefore, it is recommendable to drink water on stage 1 (pH value is 7.5 to 8) initially, and then drink ionized water in which pH value is 8.5 to 9 (generally, on stage 2 at home depending on water pressure).

The acidity and alkalinity of a substance is referred to as its pH value. A neutral substance has a pH of 7, a substance with a pH above 7 is considered alkaline and a substance with a pH below 7 is considered acid. The term acidosis is used to describe a state of excess acidity in the body fluids whereby the term alkalosis describes a state of excess alkalinity.

The pH factor should be close to neutral (7). Any pH between 6.5 and 7.5 is good. Remember, 1 is very acidic and 14 is extremely alkaline. Only salt mills and grinders having metal grinding mechanisms will cause a reaction with the salt. Ceramic mills and grinders are recommended.

The pH of the three wells in the Evans Creek valley is 7.0. The two wells on the plateau have a pH of 7.6. A pH of 7.0 is neutral.

We do. Our label clearly states that we add magnesium, potassium, sodium and calcium. We do not specify the levels of the added minerals because the FDA rules state that all ingredients must be listed as “zero” unless each ingredient (mineral) is greater than 5 mg (milligrams) per serving. All ingredients in Essentia Water are less than 5 mg per serving. Yes, structured water and clustered water are synonymous. Water naturally occurs in clusters of 12-18 individual water molecules.
