		<description>The size and quality of the electrolysis chamber.  The electrolysis chamber is the heart of any ionizer.  Other brands are pretty much all manufactured at the same place in Korea.  They all have the same &quot;engines&quot;.  The size of their engine is less than half the size of Enagic&#039;s.  Their argument is that smaller is better, but this is simply not always the case across the board.  They use tiny mesh plates, which will perform quite similar to Enagic&#039;s machines when brand new, but give the machine 6-12 months of usage, and it WILL show marked degradation.  The mesh surface is BAD for this technology due to the water passing over the plates.  Buildup occurs in nooks and crannies effectively reducing surface area.  Enagic&#039;s plates are large and SOLID.  

Competitive machines attempt to make up for their lack of proper electrolysis chamber (the most expensive part of any ionizer) by putting in more robust and fancy pre-filters (cheap).  They also focus on making their machines look good on the outside to compensate for the lack of quality on the inside.

See for yourself :) &lt;em&gt;(enagic is on the left)&lt;/em&gt;

This image shows the INSIDE of competing machines, notice the plates are even smaller than the chamber

		<description>Teas and Juices just don&#039;t cut it.
Once upon a time, I drank many juices and teas to obtain my antioxidants.  Until I read some medical studies that show that these teas and juices, while beneficial for our bodies, are actually making a minimal impact as far as antioxidizing was concerned.  This was because of the low absorbancy impact these &#039;solids&#039; have on the body.  That&#039;s right, &quot;solids&quot;!  I thought that sounded rather strange, but apparently the body treats juices and teas just like solids we eat, due to the various components of the juices and teas that the body needs to break down before utilizing.  Due to this process, much of the good stuff we would get from teas and juices are completely lost.  

Thus why we turned towards Kangen Water&#8482;!  Water is not treated as a solid (so long as it is not mixed with anything else) and therefore begins near IMMEDIATE absorption into the body&#039;s ecosystem.  Combine that with the fact that Kangen Water&#8482; is an extremely potent antioxidant (far more than you can get in juices and teas) and you have a powerful method of consuming antioxidants!

Most people have heard about Green Tea and its beneficial effects on the body, however, did you ever think about the water you make your green tea with?  Most water, even bottled water, is a powerful OXIDANT!  So how much can green tea lower the ORP (oxidation-reduction-potential) to become beneficial to our bodies?

If you gotta have your tea, at the very least, make it with the right water! :)</description>
