There really is living and dead water: what is it and how to get it yourself

The electroactivator of water changes its structure at the molecular level and saturates it with monomolecules through simple electrolysis. As a result, the user receives “living” and “dead” water, which is increasingly used for medicinal purposes. According to biophysical and biological indicators, such water is considered more active, and its natural properties are enhanced. Let's take a closer look at the work of such an activator and the benefits of the resulting water.

How to make a hydroionizer on silver

Regular consumption of water additionally enriched with silver ions kills pathogenic bacteria. The instructions describe in detail all the stages of making a home ionizer. You just need to connect any item made of silver to a plus. The minus should be connected to a power source.

Any silver item can purify water from pathogenic bacteria.

For the water to be enriched with silver to a drinking state, just 3 minutes of exposure is enough. To obtain a more concentrated version, the ionization process should be carried out for 7 minutes. Then the hydroionizer is turned off, the liquid is thoroughly mixed and kept for 4 hours in a dark place. After this time, silver water can be used for medicinal or household purposes.

Silver water should not be stored under the influence of light, as this will cause the silver to fall out in the form of flakes to the bottom of the container.

Everyone chooses for themselves what is more convenient for them: buy a ready-made device or make it with their own hands at home. The main thing is that such an ionizer allows you to get “living” as well as “dead” water and take care of yourself and your loved ones.

The electrolyzer-activator of water PTV-A “IVA-1” comes with an educational brochure “Activated water is a source of health” (click on the photo to enlarge)

A few words about the background of the issue

Unlike me, my wife really likes to read medical and “near-medical” sites and forums. So I came across information that “living” water can work wonders on human health. And such a liquid is obtained in a special device called an “activator” or “ionizer.” That is, ordinary tap water under the influence of this device is divided into soft alkaline “live” and oxidized “dead” which, however, also has some useful applied qualities.

Since it’s time to seriously think about health - in her opinion, such a device is vitally necessary for us.

At first, I simply decided to “pay off” - they say, with my next pension, I’ll buy it exactly by March 8th. And so I began to work through this issue. My dears, it turns out that even the cheapest of these ionizers costs absolutely crazy money - at least 4,500 rubles, or even more.


Most often, something like this model is offered online.


However, I lied somewhat - the cheapest one turned out to be 2,200 rubles, albeit in Krasnoyarsk. This did not help me, a resident of Transnistria.

You can also run into prices that you simply can’t believe are real – are they really buying?!

Prices for water ionizer

water ionizer


“The offer has ended” - has everything really been sorted out? Or were there simply no takers at all?

Now take a closer look at the device. If we put aside all these digital panels and other “whistles” (which, in my firm opinion, in most cases play a “decorative” role to increase the price), then the activator itself is a vessel separated by a conductive partition with electrodes lowered into it, connected to a DC source.


An indescribably “complex” ionizer device. I have no doubt that the one that costs more than 300 euros is designed in approximately the same way.

Immediately I thought - is this design really that expensive? Most likely, manufacturers are simply cashing in on the desire of many people for a healthy lifestyle. There is no other way to explain...

And really I can’t do something similar for much more modest money?

The main problem is how to divide the water treated by electrolysis into alkaline and acidic “fractions”, that is, into “live” and “dead”. I looked at how skilled people approach this matter. It turns out that such a homemade “device” is a fairly common thing.

In most cases, it is recommended to make a canvas bag, for example, from a fire hose, in which the electrode will be located, connected to the positive pole of the power source. This bag will contain cone - the canvas walls will prevent it from mixing with the rest of the volume.


One of the most common “folk” models - with a canvas bag

I rejected this idea - I did not have a canvas hose, and, in my opinion, using a device with such a layout is not very convenient.


The same model, but in schematic form

I decided to go with the option in which the “fractions” would disperse into two isolated containers. And the electrical contact between them, necessary for the electrolysis process, can be organized with a “wick” soaked in water - a cotton-gauze tourniquet. Something like this:


I began to “dance” precisely because of this scheme.

The first diagram shows that AC rectification is carried out by one diode (for example, D203A). But a full-fledged diode bridge is still preferable, since the half-cycle is not cut off, and the device is, in principle, four times more powerful.

I imagined an approximate technical specification for myself - so I got down to business. I figured out a lot on the fly, so, by the way, I made a couple of mistakes that had to be corrected.

Stay safe

What is described above is a DIY design to activate water. In any case, there are some points where there are limitations and close attention is required:

- when you start making a device for living water, remember that the device is not safe for human health, since it runs on household electricity;

- the device can only be turned on with liquid; operation of electrodes not covered with water can lead to a fire;

— during the working operation, the walls of the vessel must not be allowed to come into contact with the electrodes;

— the electrodes can only be removed when the mains voltage is turned off;

— do not allow children close to the activator; if you are not present in the room, it is better not to connect it to operation.

How to choose a magnetic water activator

Devices of this type usually have a fairly simple design. Their main element is several permanent magnets. They must be strong enough to ensure a change in the structure of the liquid as it passes through the activator.


When passing through the activator, the water is purified

The body of such a device consists of only a few parts. In fact, it is a piece of stainless steel pipe. To be able to install it in a water supply system, a thread is applied to the body. Additional components can also be installed. For example, to reduce hydraulic resistance, fairings are placed inside the body.


The performance of a magnetic activator depends on the power and type of magnets

For the activator to work correctly, it is necessary to provide the required flow rate. In addition, it should be noted that the performance of such devices varies. Manufacturers usually recommend installing the activator not at the entrance to the apartment, but directly in front of the necessary equipment and household appliances

Particular attention should be paid to the power and type of magnets. The effectiveness of the cleaning system and its durability largely depend on this parameter.

Preference should be given to neodymium alloy, which due to its characteristics is ideal for solving such problems. If there is no running water in the house, do not be embarrassed - there are healing magnetic mugs that also magnetize water, only in much smaller volumes.

Which one is better to buy and why?

All activators work the same. Not one manufacturer has yet come up with anything new and super-original! When choosing such a device for your apartment, you need to remember that an electromagnetic device is always better than a conventional magnetic one, and most importantly, when choosing, focus on prices and reviews. And in the latter, the quality of the magnets plays a major role. Therefore, it is better to buy a good cleaner directly from the manufacturer, about whom you have already formed a certain opinion. This way, confidence in the quality of the materials used will be many times higher. And when working with such devices, the quality of the material comes to the fore.

Only rare earth materials can guarantee a quality field. Therefore, when choosing a device, you need to study the materials from which it is made. The manufacturer must have all quality certificates. As for the choice of manufacturer, it is purely individual. Now we’ll find out whether it’s possible to do it yourself and how much it will cost.

Terms, storage conditions and care of the device

Activated water must be stored in dark glass jars with a tight lid so that sunlight cannot penetrate. It is also not recommended to boil or store in the refrigerator. Dead liquid is stored for up to 3 weeks, and live liquid very quickly loses its unique properties, so it must be consumed within a few hours. During operation, scale will form on the electrodes and jars. To remove it, you need to swap the electrodes and turn on the activator in the network. Then rinse all parts with plain water and dry.

Water activators: indications for use

The healing properties of activated water can not only get rid of many diseases, but also improve the general condition of the entire body. Catholyte is “living” water, anolyte is “dead” water. Properties of “dead water”: anti-inflammatory, decongestant, antibacterial, antiviral, antimycotic, antiallergic, antipruritic, drying, has an antimetabolic effect. Properties of “living water”: differentiated antibacterial effect, immunocorrective effect, enhancing the detoxifying function of the liver, stabilizing the permeability of cell membranes, normalizing the energy potential of cells.

Living water has unique properties that are similar to the fluid of the human body. Taking such liquid allows the body to restore health. Living water is used for washing, watering plants, and in industry.

Water activators are used to saturate tap water with antibacterial and antiviral properties. When carrying out water activation procedures, the devices produce “dead” and “living” water. Living water is saturated with useful substances, obtained by treating water with a cathode, and is used for drinking and bathing. Living water improves blood circulation, is used to heal wounds, and also accelerates plant growth. Dead fashion is used to disinfect the human body and food. Such water is made using an anode. Dead water is used to wash the nose and throat, and to cleanse food - vegetables and fruits.

After activation, you cannot immediately consume the resulting water; you must let the water sit for about 15 minutes so that the products (flakes) of electrolysis settle to the bottom of the container

Important! Do not use filters or filtration jugs with activated carbon, silver, or ion exchange resin, as... Such filters give water hardness properties

It is known that silver and resin molecules reduce the negative charge of activated water, which destroys the percentage of beneficial properties when consumed.

Also, a water activator can work as an ionizer-silverizer. Certain models of water activators saturate the water with silver particles (molecules), which is also beneficial for the human body.

"Living" and "dead" water

The purpose of operating each activator is the restructuring of water, and any electrical appliance contains two containers; in one process the device makes both “dead” and “living” water. For example, the increasingly popular AP-1 looks like a regular filter jug, inside of which there is a small additional capacity.

The definitions of “living” and “dead” water are arbitrary; in both cases it is ordinary water with an altered molecular structure. The term “living water” means catholyte, which stimulates all biological processes, and “dead” - anolyte, means a slowdown.

There are many different opinions about the miraculous properties of healing water. You can argue for a long time whether this is a myth or reality, but you cannot deny the physical processes that occur at the molecular level.

The benefits of “living” water

Living water or catholyte has alkaline properties and has a high pH value - about 10 units. Under the influence of electric current, some of the molecules decompose into hydrogen ions. Alkaline water promotes vital functions and has a strong biostimulating effect. Therefore, it is used to cleanse the body, heal wounds, and seeds treated with “living” water bloom and germinate faster.

Naturally, such water cannot be called a panacea for all diseases and can hardly be taken as an independent medicine. At the same time, its benefits to the body are difficult to downplay:

  • water enriched with alkali promotes the healing of all wounds and burns;
  • helps cure peptic ulcers;
  • cleanses the body, removes waste and toxins faster;
  • increases blood pressure and strengthens the immune system;
  • has a beneficial, healing effect on the kidneys, liver, and the entire digestive system;
  • enhances the effects of medications taken.

Features of dead water

Dead water or anolyte is endowed with retarding properties and stops any biological processes. It is used for disinfection:

  • peeling vegetables or fruits, which increases their shelf life;
  • disinfection of any items;
  • in alternative medicine to destroy allergens, fungi and other bacteria.

Anolyte is acidic water with a low pH level (3 – 4 units); when interacting with bacteria, it destroys cell walls and blocks protein synthesis. In simple terms, “dead” water freezes the vital activity of microorganisms, which is useful for humans in the fight against various diseases.

Review of modern electric water activators

Below we present the most popular examples of industrial activators. Despite their widespread use, not all of the presented models cope well with their task.

Apparatus AP-1

Electric water activator AP-1 is one of the most popular. The device is distinguished by good production quality:

  • the main container is made of high-grade plastic;
  • heavy-duty electrodes made of titanium, platinum and stainless steel;
  • The ceramic diaphragm is made from a special type of clay.

A 70 W activator consumes no more than 40 W during operation, which makes it quite economical. In one cycle of 20–30 minutes, AP-1 is capable of activating almost one and a half liters of structured water. The AP-1 device does not have a stylish and modern design, but it will easily and discreetly fit into any kitchen.

"Health resort"

The design is very similar to AP-1:

  • plastic container;
  • glass made of ceramics or tarpaulin;
  • stainless steel electrodes.

"Melesta"

Its advantage is the price; otherwise the device attracts little attention. Naturally, “Melesta” will cope with its main task, but it has some disadvantages

For example, the design involves only a fabric glass, which is inferior to ceramics. Instead of four electrodes, only two are installed here, made of food steel. The external characteristics of the device will not earn more than three points: rough execution and mediocre design.

PTV

The PTV device is intended for professional use in sanatoriums or health centers, but it is often purchased for home use. The advantage of the water activator is its resource; here the manufacturer installed thick electrodes, which significantly increases its service life. The device power is only 75 W.

PTV is also distinguished by its design: instead of a ceramic glass for anolyte, the device has one container separated by a wood membrane. The only drawback of the activator is its cost, but the best quality requires it.

History of application

The gifts of nature have long been used by humans for medicinal purposes. One of them, which deserves special attention, is “life-giving water.” Even in ancient manuscripts, researchers found a mention that during his military campaigns along the mountain ranges of the Pamirs, Caucasus and Tien Shan, Alexander the Great found a source of healing water. He collected the liquid into a jug, but his daughter stole it and poured it on herself. As a result of this, she became invisible and immortal.

There is also information that many Popes, Chinese emperors and other powerful people organized expeditions in search of an elixir that would allow them to obtain immortality. All these fairy tales and legends are clear confirmation that our ancestors knew about the existence of living and dead water.

Making at home

In order to use the healing liquid, it is enough to make a device of living and dead water with your own hands. Of course, such devices are not difficult to find on sale. Buying and delivering them will not be difficult.

However, the purchased apparatus for obtaining living and dead water, when examined in detail, has a rather simple design. This makes me think about saving money. After all, the price of such a device is not so low. It is much easier to make a living and dead water apparatus with your own hands. It will only require a little time and a small amount of materials. The skill of our masters is always present.

How to get ionized water at home

There are several types of devices with the function of converting ordinary drinking water into ionized alkaline water, which have the properties of saturating it with useful hydrogen ions.

Models of modern ionizers:

  • Stationary: installed in the kitchen next to the sink: modifies the flow of water from the tap, service life - 10 years;
  • Hydrogen bottle, jug: with their help, powerful saturation with hydrogen is carried out, changing the structure of water at the molecular level;
  • Mineral: based on the presence of special filters. It has the properties of purifying water from chlorine, heavy metal salts, eliminating harmful microorganisms, saturating it with useful substances, and ionizing. Practical to use, service life up to 6 months;
  • Aqua mug: - activates water and other types of liquid for 1 - 4 minutes, does not need to be recharged or replaced.

Understanding what benefits and harms a water ionizer brings to the body gives a person the opportunity to choose the type of device that is suitable for a particular case.

Harm from ionized water

Modern ionizers make it possible to obtain two types of liquid.

Alkaline water is suitable for drinking and watering plants.

Acidic water, the benefit of which lies in its antiseptic effect and is used:

  • for rinsing vegetables and fruits, kitchen utensils;
  • washing injuries on the body.

Attention! When adding silver to devices, it is necessary to monitor the content of metal ions in the prepared water, since large doses of the substance can be harmful to health.

Apart from individual reactions of the body, there are no contraindications to the use of hydrogen-saturated water.

After reading the information about the benefits and harms of water ionization, in order to avoid the development of unwanted allergic reactions, oral administration should be started with caution.

What are we made of?

Nutrition, illness and the lifestyle we lead affect our life expectancy. People are looking for a panacea in expensive medicines and clinics, but they forget about the main thing. We are 70% water and its quality and quantity in the body fundamentally affects our health and well-being.


A person is born in water, but with age the fluid content decreases

In a person weighing 65 kg. contains up to 40 liters of water. The cause of many diseases is its chronic deficiency. Water provides vital processes in our body and spends about 2 liters per day on this:

  • humidifies inhaled oxygen;
  • regulates body temperature. When we are too hot, it cools down due to the secretion and evaporation of sweat;
  • ensures metabolism and promotes the absorption of beneficial vitamins and minerals;
  • removes toxins from the body;
  • provides a water-salt process.

That’s why you need to help your body and replenish the lack of water throughout the day. If the water level in the body decreases by:

2% - your health worsens, nausea and drowsiness appear;

6-10% - headache, shortness of breath, impaired thinking, loss of concentration;

11-20% - causes hearing and vision impairment, and may cause muscle spasms;

25% - death occurs.

Dry skin and wrinkles indicate a lack of water in the cells - the water balance of intracellular and extracellular fluid is disturbed. Cells age, become oxidized, and eventually die. This is the same as depriving a plant of water - it will gradually dry out and die.

Technologies are developing in two directions: alienating and bringing people closer to nature. Getting closer to nature, technologies have emerged that make it possible to bring water to ideal natural conditions - alkaline pH, negative redox potential and make it structured.

Some features of electrolysis

After completing the electrolysis process, you should immediately remove the electrodes and wipe them thoroughly with a towel. With the preparation of the third dozen doses of ionized liquid, the negative electrode becomes covered with a coating of salt and becomes “gray.” As a result, the value of current consumption decreases, and the process increases in time.

Then, to remove salts from the cathode, it is placed for half an hour in a working container with 70% acetic acid added to the liquid. It will take about a day to completely remove salts from the anode. After washing, the electrodes will shine.

“Living” water is soft and usually clear with a chalky taste. At first, tiny traces of salt in the form of white flakes will be noticeable in it, so let the liquid settle before drinking.

The shelf life of living water at room temperature is no more than a day in a glass container that does not allow sunlight to pass through. However, the greatest benefit comes from it in the first two to three hours. Alkaline liquid heals wounds, cuts and abrasions.

“Dead” water after preparation has a sour taste and smell of chlorine with a dirty yellowish or brown tint. It retains its properties for two weeks. Sunlight is also contraindicated for her. Acidic water is good for rinsing the nose and throat to get rid of colds.

By the way, sometimes after boiling water using electric kettles, the smell of chlorine may also be present in it, which indirectly indicates its electrolysis. From this it is not difficult to assume that such a substance does not contain pronounced properties of dead water.

The quality of activated liquid at home is usually determined by litmus paper. Living water has an acidity index of 8-10, and dead water – no higher than 5.

If you consume ionized liquid orally, you should follow the instructions in the recipe, but no later than half an hour before meals or 2-2.5 hours after meals. In addition, during the treatment period it is appropriate to give preference to a healthy diet, giving up fatty and spicy foods, as well as alcohol.

Slows down skin aging

Early wrinkles are an indicator of dehydration in the body, and aging is the first sign of how much the cell is filled with water. Due to lack of living water in the body:

  • the skin becomes dull and less elastic;
  • looks tired and dry;
  • Collagen and elastin are formed more slowly;
  • the amount of hyaluronic acid decreases.

First, barely noticeable rays appear, and then deep-lying “crow’s feet” around the eyes. Living water slows down the formation of this particular type of wrinkle.

but alas, wrinkles and age spare no one

Constant renewal of fluid in the body, fullness of cells and intercellular space helps to stay young longer.

What you need to know before starting work

The first requirement for every person who undertakes such work is to understand the topic. This is correct: you will have to be guided by electrical diagrams.

The second rule is to create such a device only in the most desperate situations. Here it is necessary to explain in more detail: an electric activator of water collected in “field” conditions will never give the quality result that the manufacturer guarantees from the enterprise.

This option is really only needed for emergency cases (for example, when the dacha runs out of clean water). The difference is this.

  1. The purchased device is aimed at deep cleaning, including the removal of various impurities. It is able to work with large volumes while maintaining the required quality. In addition, the warranty period states the long-term operation of the device.
  2. The “home” device provides very poor cleaning performance. It is best to use it in case of one-time need. Homemade products will not help cope with hardness and iron content.

According to experts, constant consumption of homemade purified water will cause damage to health. It is often impossible to select the appropriate stainless steel material for the manufacture of one of the anodes at home. This will lead to the fact that when current passes through such an electrode, ions of harmful metals nickel, vanadium, chromium, and molybdenum will enter the water (and then the body). Their long stay and accumulation in the body lead to serious illnesses.

This does not happen after using industrial activator devices - here titanium coating or a special food grade stainless steel is used for cathode production. And for the anode they take platinum or other special coatings. At home, of course, there are no such resources.

If, after such warnings, you still have the determination and urgency to make a homemade activator, then you should read the following material.

What types are there and where can I get them?

To buy an activator, just go to the nearest pharmacy, optician or supermarket, where they sell substances that can be used as thickeners. The following types of activators are distinguished:

Pharmacy

Pharmacy activators include drugs that contain boric acid derivatives:

  • nasal drops (Naphthyzin, Nazivin, etc.);
  • eye drops (Vizin, Levomycetin, etc.);
  • sodium tetraborate (borax in powder form);
  • solutions for cleaning lenses (Opti-free, Aquasoft, etc.);
  • Teymurov's spray for feet (from odor and sweat), etc.

Any product containing salicylic acid or boric acid derivatives can be used as a thickener. These can include alcohol tinctures, solutions, and anti-acne lotions.

From grocery stores

The following is used as a product thickener:

  • flour;
  • potato or corn starch;
  • baking soda;
  • sugar (or powder);
  • table salt, etc.

In this case, flour is used only in extreme cases, since it helps the product dry out quickly. But salt and baking soda are universal remedies for any slime.

From hardware stores

At the hardware store you can choose the following as a thickener:

  • any dishwashing detergent (“Fairy”, “Drop”, etc.);
  • air freshener in the form of a spray;
  • Polish for hair;
  • shampoo;
  • shaving gel, etc.

But they can be used only in those recipes where their presence is required (“Slime from detergent”, “Slime from shaving gel”, etc.).

Homemade water activator

Electrolyzer for producing living water and dead water.

Inside the negative electrode there is a cup made of tarpaulin, calico or canvas (in other designs - a bag, depending on your skills in working with the material), the tarpaulin is hemmed to a glass tube rolled into a spiral. The main thing is to make the glass easy to remove.

The central electrode is attached to a heavy flat piece of plastic (not shown in the figure), which is placed on top of the neck of the jar. You can attach it to a standard polyethylene lid, but this is very inconvenient, because... removing the lid with the electrode from a jar of hot water (it gets very hot during processing) is dangerous and inconvenient. A handle made of wood or plastic is attached to the segment; the head of the electrode with a soldered wire is covered with an insulating plate (the insulating tape will not work - it will melt if it overheats).

The current limiter is a 60W incandescent lamp connected to a 220V electrical network in series with the rectifier bridge. The lamp can be painted red (lit - danger) and its socket can be placed in the structure of a protective box (chest) in which the filled jar will be placed. It is necessary to make a safety switch that disconnects both wires coming from the power plug when the cover is lifted. The main switch is mounted on the top of the cover. IT IS PROHIBITED TO REMOVE THE JAR, COVER WITH ELECTRODE, without disconnecting the device from the 220V network.

The current flows in the circuit I=60W/220V=360mA; buy a rectifier bridge KTs-402A from a radio parts store. KTs-402E (in this case, a part with any letter will do). Inspect the part carefully - there are pole markings on it. Place the diagram in a sealed box on the wall of the protective box (chest), so that it does not cling to the jar being pulled out. Connect the wires according to the sketch shown (arrows - to the electrolyzer jar).

“Dead” water is formed inside the bag-cup, and “live” water is formed in the jar. After turning on the unit, you need to wait 10-15 minutes (when the water has heated up to 60-70 o - it’s ready) C. Then remove the plug from the socket and drain the “dead” water into another container. The canvas bag (cup) can be used 1-2 times, then washed. Plaque is deposited on the bag. You need to store the bag separately from the jar so that it dries normally. The proposed device allows you to obtain “live” (alkaline) and “dead” (acidic, any strength) water. After completion of work, the elements of the device are washed. To facilitate this process, pour water into the vessels, change the connection of the electrodes and turn on the charger for 2-3 minutes. “Dead” water will remove the deposited salts on the walls of the elements, and all that remains is to rinse them and dry them.

“Living” water washes away greasy stains well, and vegetables, fruits and berries washed in activated water do not spoil for six months. “Dead” water has high bactericidal properties. Therefore, for the purpose of disinfection, you can wipe furniture, soak laundry in it and wash dishes. After communicating with a sick person, it is useful to wash your hands in this water. To obtain “dead” water, which has higher bactericidal properties, before pouring it into the activator, 5 g of table salt must be dissolved in a liter of ordinary water.

And now a few more recipes for treating “living” and “dead” water. But before using them, consult a specialist.

  • Toothache will disappear if you rinse your mouth with “dead” water for 5-10 minutes.
  • Heartburn will stop if you just drink 0.5 glasses of “living” water.
  • In just two days you can get rid of a boring cough if you drink 0.5 glasses of “live” water 4 times a day after meals.
  • Dandruff will disappear, your hair will be soft and silky if after each wash you wipe your hair dry, and then moisten it first with “dead” water, and after 3 minutes with “living” water.
  • The pain of radiculitis will go away if you drink 3/4 cup of “living” water 3 times a day before meals.
  • If you have excessive sweating of your feet, wash your feet in warm water, dry them, and then moisten them with “dead” water. After 10 minutes, rinse your feet with “living” water and let them dry. Dry the shoes inside. The sweating will go away.
  • Wrinkles and acne will disappear if you wipe your face every morning and evening after washing, first with “dead” water, and after 3 minutes with “live” water.
  • The blood pressure of hypertensive patients will be normalized if they drink 0.5 glasses of “dead” water 2 times a day for two days. And taking “living” water in the same way will help with hypotension.
  • “Dead” water will relieve joint pain in the arms and legs. For two days, drink 0.5 cups 3 times a day, half an hour before meals.

Free radicals VS antioxidants

A person consists of cells where their own logistics system is clearly built. To understand the relationship between water and humans, let’s look at the example of cells, free radicals and antioxidants.

Cell mitochondria work on the principle of a power plant - they process the energy generated during the combustion of food into ATP energy. Just as electricity is a universal source of energy in our everyday life, ATP is a universal source of energy for cellular enzymes. But this process has a side effect.

The more ATP is produced, the more waste products appear in the mitochondria - free radicals.

These are positively charged, aggressive, defective particles that attack and deform the structure of the cell and the nucleus, which contains human DNA. The cell is destroyed and perceived as foreign, starts the process of self-destruction and dies.


Free radicals attack a healthy cell and destroy its structure

The cell is destroyed and perceived as foreign, starts the process of self-destruction and dies.

Free radicals are one of the main causes of aging and acidification of the body. The more there are, the shorter the cell lives. She could have lived for 2 years, but she lived for 2 months.

Antioxidants are negatively charged particles that neutralize the attack of free radicals. They restore the negative charge of cells necessary for the body, protect against harmful effects and oxidation. There are too few of them in food to counteract free radicals, so cells need an additional source of antioxidants.

Living, negatively charged water is rich in free electrons. But the water that we are used to drinking comes with a + sign and contains very few antioxidants; it is more difficult for them to cope with free radicals.

Water with a negative ORP carries with it billions, trillions of antioxidant electrons that can protect the body and cells from free radicals.

Let's summarize the work

The device is ready - and has been working almost constantly ever since. This does not particularly affect consumption - in any case, when the ionizer is turned on, the meter practically does not react. Yes, you can see it from the light bulb - the current is small.

I passed on the method of use to my wife - she now copes with everything herself. The procedure itself is simple and clear:

The jars are rinsed before “refueling”. At the same time, the connecting “wick” is saturated with water.


Banks are ready for the next cycle of work

Next, they are put together, with a channel with a wick passing through a window in the wall.


A “battery” is assembled from cans

The next step is to fill the jars with water. As I already said, each one holds about one and a half liters. It is advisable to let the water stand for several hours so that most of the chlorine comes out. Tested – the quality of the output water after treatment becomes better.


When filling with water, naturally, you cannot let it overflow through the transition channel. But the tourniquet should sink well into the water.

The “head” of the device is put on top. The result is a very stable structure, thanks to the good fit of the lids.


The device is charged and ready to turn on

We plug it in and all we have to do is wait.


The lamp burning indicates that the process has begun.


This is clearly visible from external changes in the structure of water in jars.

Gradually, the brightness of the llama's glow begins to decrease.


As the water is converted into two fractions that differ in chemical composition, the glow of the lamp begins to fade.

When the lamp goes out, or the glow of the hair is barely noticeable, you can turn off the ionizer - the process is almost complete.


The heat is barely visible - you can turn off the device.

After unplugging from the socket, the “head” is removed, the cans are separated, and the resulting “product” is poured either into a bottle or down the drain. “Dead” water with a smell, they say, can also be used beneficially, but we haven’t gotten around to it yet.


Even if there were no marks on the polarity of the electrodes, it would be impossible to make a mistake about which water is which.

That's basically it.

A small note. After the final assembly of the ionizer, I noticed one mistake, which, however, was easily removable. I read that it is advisable to change the polarity of the electrodes over time so as not to miss the process of self-healing of the metal. And when assembling the circuit, I made the wires from the board to the electrodes a little short to reverse the polarity. Either the length will not be enough, or it will be tight, which is also undesirable.


It is better to make these two wires a little longer so that it is possible to reverse the polarity of the electrodes.

Of course, there is no problem - I’ll make others, fortunately, there are still some tips left. But for those who will make the device themselves, it is better to foresee this from the beginning.

Now - let's calculate the final result: how much did it cost me to assemble a water ionizer?

Material or design detailTotal acquisition cost (rounded up slightly)
Plastic jars with lids - 2 pcs.55 rub.
Light bulb socket - 1 pc.10 rub.
Light bulb 15 W - 1 pc.8 rub.
Diode bridge14 rub.
M4 screws with nuts – 10 pcs (with reserve)4 rub.
Ring terminal lugs 4 and 6 mm – 15 pcs. (with reserve) 25 rub.
Columns of silicone hot glue – 2 pcs.18 rub.
Dichloroethane (money wasted, but still)16 rub.
Akfix glue – 2 tubes20 rub.
TOTAL170 rub.
in Russian rubles – 544 rubles.

Agree that the costs are completely incomparable with the cost of even the simplest factory-made devices. The most expensive purchase turned out to be banks, but I simply had nothing to replace them with. But they are large in volume and immediately give a good yield of “products”.

True, the calculation shown above takes into account the fact that I found plastic in my household. But many people have it - it is not at all necessary to use plexiglass; another material with dielectric properties is also possible. You didn’t have to buy electrodes and wires – you should also be able to find them from a good owner. It is quite possible to use the handles of old ladles, skewers, or other similar stainless steel kitchen utensils as electrodes.

Well, the work itself personally gives me pleasure, and I can’t express it in any financial way.

So if the need arises for such a water ionizer, it is better to try to make it yourself. It's not particularly difficult and will be much cheaper.

Well, now, at the insistence of my wife, I drink exclusively “living water.” It’s his own fault – he gave her such a “device” for use. Whether I’ll become healthier or how long I’ll last, I don’t know. Just kidding, of course!

How much water should you drink

There is a way that will determine, without calculations or glasses, how much water to drink per day. It's quite personal, but it works. Be guided by urine.

Light, odorless - you’re doing great, you’re drinking enough, keep up the good work.

Dark, with a pungent odor - drink more, much more and more often.

Tricks to help you remember to drink water:

Fill 2 liters of water in bottles and take it with you when you leave the house so you don’t forget to drink. By the end of the evening, you will understand how much you drank or didn’t finish.

Application "My water"

Install a reminder app on your phone that notifies you when it's time to drink water. Convenient and always at hand.

What can be used instead?

If you want slime right now, but are too lazy to run to the store to buy a ready-made activator, you can make a toy without it, since you can use improvised means to activate the slime.

How to make slime from starch?

Starch binds well toffees based on thick shampoo or hand cream. Also suitable for creating edible species. Here is the basic recipe using starch :

  1. Mix 50 ml of shampoo with dye, glitter or other decoration.
  2. Gradually add 120 g of starch. Suitable for both potato and corn.
  3. Thin the dough with water until you reach your desired thickness.

Sugar

In our case, sugar goes well with toothpaste . If your slime is based on it, feel free to use granulated sugar. The thickness and color can be adjusted by the amount of ingredients, but the general recipe is as follows:

  1. mix 25 ml of toothpaste and 50 ml of liquid soap;
  2. when bubbles begin to form, add a tablespoon of starch, and then the same amount of sugar;
  3. stir for a few minutes, then put in the refrigerator for 2 hours.

To remove stickiness, add a pinch of soda and knead for about five minutes. Most people can make slimes using this recipe, but they are stored for only a day.

Below is a video of making slime with added sugar using another interesting recipe:

Detergents

Pour any detergent in gel form into the mixture until it reaches the desired consistency.

Slime with such a thickener has a drawback: it is very difficult to achieve a slime-like substance. You probably won’t succeed the first time; you’ll have to experiment with the types of detergents available to you. But if you want to try, we offer a recipe:

  1. Mix a small bottle of PVA with 3 tbsp. l. water.
  2. Add 1 tbsp dish liquid to the mixture. l.If after this stage foam begins to appear, it means you have chosen the right soap; if there is no foam, take another one and start again.
  3. Next, gradually add baking soda until the dough turns into slime.

We recommend: How to save your favorite toy: why is the slime too liquid and what to do if it becomes like water?

If your anti-stress is too thick, add a little PVA glue or shampoo.

Gelatin

15 grams of gelatin should be stirred in 30 ml of hot water until all crystals are completely dissolved. This product perfectly binds thick shampoo. After using gelatin, the toy should be placed in the freezer for 15 minutes .
Anyone can make a good slime from gelatin, the problem is that you have to work hard for it. We offer a proven recipe:

  1. Leave 20 grams of gelatin in 150 ml of warm water for an hour.
  2. Dissolve a bag of light plasticine in 50 ml of water, after crushing it. This is not easy to do, so be patient.
  3. After an hour, heat the swollen gelatin over low heat until completely dissolved.
  4. Add dissolved plasticine to the cooled gelatin.
  5. Mix well and refrigerate for an hour.

Note! If your handgum breaks, add about 10 ml of thick shampoo and cool again.

How to thicken it yourself

What should I do to make the toy more elastic and resilient? You can take flour. Note that:

  • it is a safe alternative to starch;
  • to achieve elasticity, it is necessary to introduce a larger amount of flour;
  • The slime will be elastic, but it will not stretch well.

We recommend that you use regular wheat flour. Before use, it will need to be sifted to get rid of excess impurities. There are other methods, but it is best to clean the composition through a regular fine sieve. The slime will be ready much faster with this thickener.

Is it possible to thicken slime with hydrogen peroxide?

Use another recipe with the addition of an activator. Necessary:

  • pour 100 ml of sodium tetraborate into a small container;
  • shake the composition until a homogeneous mixture is obtained; it is suitable for liquid soap;
  • add the solution in small quantities to obtain an elastic composition.

Expert opinion

Specialist in licks and slimes.

This is a very simple recipe that even beginners can master. It is recommended for those who do not have time to mix more complex compositions, or if there is no opportunity to use other ingredients.

Types of magnetic filters

Despite such a simple design, there are several types of magnetic filters:

  • Coupled - in its design it is very similar to a coarse filter - a mud filter.

With the difference that in addition to the mesh for cleaning from mechanical impurities, a magnet is also installed under the lid. Like the mud filter, the coupling magnetic filter is low cost and requires cleaning. To clean, you need to unscrew the lid and rinse the mesh and magnets. Combining the functions of mechanical and magnetic cleaning, the coupling filter purifies water from mechanical inclusions, silt, grains of sand and protects against scale formation and corrosion. Coupling filters are made of brass and cast iron

  • Flange - similar in design to the previous one, the difference lies in the flange material of the filter connection. Like a coupling filter, a flanged magnetic filter requires periodic inspection and cleaning, which you can do yourself.
  • Magnetic activators - such filters are sometimes called magnetic transducers. They are a hollow sleeve with a magnet inside. Such a filter must be installed before the coarse filter, and the presence of a second one is very desirable, because the magnetic activator does not perform mechanical water purification in any way. There are great discussions and a lot of controversy about magnetic converters; the opinion about their usefulness or uselessness has not yet been fully established.
  • Magnetic activator of the invoice - the principle of operation is still the same, only the design of the activator changes - in this case it does not pass through the pipe, but is installed on top of it. This greatly facilitates the installation of the structure; in its overhead form it can be installed without the help of a specialist, and this model belongs to the budget category.

Important! It is better to install magnetic activators on a clean pipe.

Magnetic water converter UDI-MAG

Magnetic transducer made in Italy, there are various models for plastic, copper and steel pipes.

The model is suitable for installation on thick inlet hoses and protects washing machines from the appearance of scale, while the manufacturer claims that the service life of the device is 10 years.

Magnetic water converter MWS DU8

Small size converter from the household series. Among the advantages that regular users highlight is that this MPV does not require electricity, does not require maintenance and is easy to install. Among the disadvantages, they note that the price is not the lowest, however, the quality of the device allows you to turn a blind eye to this.

Like the previous MPV, the service life is 10 years. This model will fit well into the plumbing system of a small residential building or cottage. For large houses, an industrial series model is better suited.

These two models of magnetic converters have an acceptable price and a large number of reviews from consumers, however, on the Internet and in stores you can find various devices for fabulous money that will not affect water hardness in any way, but will shout from every iron about their benefits and efficiency. Before purchasing a magnetic transducer, be sure to carefully read reviews about this product, listen to the experiences of your friends or neighbors, and only then proceed with the purchase.

Magnetic polygradient water activator MPAV MVS Kema

Is there any difference between a magnetic activator and a polygradient one? Does a polygradient provide anything to such a cleaning device? The magnetic core of the softener of the magnetic polygradient water activator MPAS MVS Kema is created on the basis of technical specifications, from high-energy magnets. An alloy of three elements is neodymium, to which iron and boron are added. The case is stainless steel, which is not magnetic. When water flows through such a device, different polarity zones are formed in the gap. The intensity of the generated field is quite high.

When the salt flows through such a tube, its physical properties change. Crystallization accelerates many times over. Moreover, salts crystallize not by sticking to the walls of the equipment, but inside the water column. It turns out that they become heavier and precipitate. An easily transportable sludge is formed, which is washed out of the system. Therefore, the water itself cannot be used for drinking. There is a chalky quality to it that doesn’t go away. You can install filter elements that will catch this sludge and drain it into the sewer.

The magnetic polygradient water activator has two main models, threaded and flanged. They are installed directly in front of washing machines and boilers. And in a private house MPAV MVS Kema will come in handy, especially if the house has a private boiler room. Although this model loses in comparison with electromagnetic installations. An electromagnetic softener is lighter, and the pipe material is not important to it. Can be mounted anywhere in the system. It is much lighter than its magnetic competitor. Since electricity costs are present, there are fewer problems with such a device. They can process hot water at impressive speeds and even if the water flows in a multidirectional pipe.

Scaleoff

Another convenient magnetic water activator, the price of which will not shock the consumer. Nakipoff, what are its advantages? The purpose of this softener is standard. It should convert the salts and prevent them from settling on the surfaces of the equipment. At the same time, his task is to eliminate old remains inside the heating equipment, or the equipment in front of which it will be installed.

The purpose is not to soften, but to combat scale and remove old sediment. The emphasis of such a softener is rather on cleaning and protective work. This activator works only with the help of permanent magnets. There are at least six magnetic zones in one device. The service life of such a device is at least a quarter of a century, without replacement. No replaceable units, no energy consumption with massive removal of old deposits. The Nakipoff magnetic water activator works on the same principles, it is based on the same magnets. Therefore, in the matter of choosing between several options for activators, it is purely a matter of taste.

What is not suitable as a thickener?

Some polymeric materials and polysaccharides undergo cross-coupling reactions only with certain components. Often slime does not work when used as a thickener:

  • glycerin;
  • boric ointment;
  • sorbitol;
  • pepsin;
  • salicylic acid.

These components combine well with office glue, silicone and other synthetic substances. When using boric acid, soda or concentrated saline solution must be added to the mixture. To avoid failure, slimers advise using only proven recipes. If you follow the proportions, you will get full-fledged slimes with the properties of a non-Newtonian liquid.

Working principle of a water softener

The magnetic water filter works according to the physical and chemical properties of positively and negatively charged particles. They move through a magnetic field at a given speed, which increases as its strength increases.

This means that the more powerful the magnet and the fluid flow rate, the stronger the adsorbing effect of the device.

The operating principle is as follows:

  1. Water is penetrated by magnetic field lines.
  2. As a result, the formation of new impurities from salts stops.
  3. Their crystal lattice becomes smaller and thinner.
  4. The sediment crystallizes, hits the walls and cleans off the already formed scale.

The process takes place at the level of ions and molecules, so the human eye cannot see it. Simultaneously with the destruction of potassium and magnesium salts, active chlorine and oxygen are removed, acidity decreases, and the natural structure of water is restored.
