Kangen Water Megumi

Some friends were looking for information about Kangen Water Megumi, because they're interested in general health improvement.

While Kangen (means "return to origin") Water Megumi (which means "rich") was established in 2007, this is the first time it has appeared in the Philippines (if the marketing flyer is accurate).

The product is positioned as "ionized alkaline with active hydrogen water", and the belief is that if you change your water, you change your life.

In terms of general health improvement, the literature suggests that you drink at least two liters of water a day to gradually improve the acidity of body and make it more alkaline.

High acidity can lead to excess gastric acid, chronic diarrhea, digestive disorders and abnormal gastro-intestinal fermentation. A better alkalinity can, according to the flyer, help lower cholestero and improve blood circulation.

The Kangen Water marketing people claim, in their flyers, that you can supplement calcium with continued use of their product. "Listlessness will diminish, and your children will be strong and healthy..." promised their marketing literature.

You can also use Kangen water in warm enema to cleanse the intestines and remove impacted fecal matter, just like you would wash your skin.

In other areas, some people claim that the product can help prevent aging, stabilize body temperature, and remove active oxygen (via active hydrogen in the water). This can lead to various benefits for people suffering from diabetes, hepatitis, atopic dermatitis, hypertension, gastric ulcer, athlete's foot, and other medical conditions.
