LIVING AIR XL-15 ALPINE FRESH AIR PURIFIER Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We bought our alpine air XL 15 back in 1999, for our store, and we liked it so much that we bought another unit for our home. The machine takes care of up to 2500 sq feet, be it single- or multi-level. Our home is 2200 sq feet and our XL 15 does it all - whether doors are open or closed. Our air is always fresh and allergies are almost non-existent. We had to shut the machine down when we were remodeling and that's when I learned I REFUSE to live without it, ever again! I recommend the XL-15 for anyone who is looking to improve their inside air quality - and if you have pets, you will love it. By the way, after we had our first unit 9 years, we had to replace the home unit and did not hesitate for a moment in doing so. We closed our shop and gave that unit to our mother, who is a heavy smoker (in her house, no less). She runs it 24x7 and cleans it every other month. When you walk into her house, you can't even tell that she smokes in there and she is breathing a lot better! The best thing about it is that it's a single unit that does the whole house (all rooms) with the doors closed - no need to move it. Just place it high (like on top of a bookcase - ours is adjacent to our heat/air vent in the family room) and forget it. I also know of a nail salon that bought a unit and you can't smell the nail products in that salon! I don't know about all the negative hype you read on CR and others, but I disagree with it - at least for the XL-15, and since I have almost 11 years, non-stop, experience using this machine (XL 15) I can attest to it's being worth every single penny of the cost!

The Original Dr. Hayashi Hydrogen Rich Water Stick Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I revised this review to make it more readable. The scientific citations have been moved to the end and new headings have been created. Those readers who want details and rigor can refer to the NOTES AND REFERENCES section at the end of the review. If this is not enough, the interested reader can Google the original articles and read them for him- or herself.
DISCLAIMERS
There is no way that buying a $875 - $4000 machine was in the cards for me, so I performed no investigation on alkaline water. Maybe alkaline water works; maybe it doesn't. I was interested in Hayashi's claim that it was the hydrogen dissolved in the water that has a therapeutic effect rather than in the water's alkalinity or Oxidation/Reduction Potential.
I do not sell Hydrogen Sticks, nor do I have any financial interest in the sale of Hydrogen Sticks.
What follows is not to be construed as medical advice.
While I have attempted to perform a sanity check for myself, this sanity check was to informal personal standards which may not satisfy the standards of a given reader.
REASONS NOT TO BUY THE HYDROGEN STICK
Alkaline Tap Water. The hydrogen stick relies on a chemical reaction between water and metallic magnesium: Mg + 2H2O -> Mg (OH)2 + H2. This reaction proceeds faster in an acidic environment and slower in an alkaline environment. Therefore, if your tap water is exceptionally alkaline, the hydrogen stick is probably not for you, unless you are willing to use bottled water instead of tap water. Or instead of using bottled water, maybe you could acidify the tap water with vinegar, bringing it to a more neutral pH - it's worth a try. On the other hand, if your water is really acidic, my guess is that the hydrogen stick will produce bubbles like crazy but probably won't last very long. Any water with a fairly neutral pH - say 7.0 or 8.0 - should be fine. 636cathleen (creator of the "Don't Buy the Hydrogen Stick" YouTube videos) has tap water that is extremely alkaline - pH 10.1, so her poor results with the Hydrogen Stick are understandable and predictable.
Drinking Habits - You Like to Drink Water Constantly Throughout the Day. The instructions for the stick emphasize that once you get it wet, you need to keep it wet. If you are the kind of person who sucks water all day long from a bottle, keeping the stick wet can be a problem - especially if you plan to use multiple sticks in a single bottle. Sergey Manukyan's review mentions the difficulty of maintaining the stick, and he makes an excellent point. I am not a big water drinker, so this problem didn't affect me, but if you are someone who wants to drink hydrogen-rich water all day long, keeping your bottle topped off will be a pain. Personally, I chug a bunch of hydrogen-rich water in the morning, top off, and then chug a bunch more at night and top off again. If you sip water all day long, it would be a hassle to keep the bottle topped off - you'd need a source of water and a way to top off the hydrogen water bottle without spilling the water and making a mess. If you happen to be near a drinking fountain or a Sparkletts water dispenser this is probably not a big deal, but if you don't have ready access to a water supply it's something to seriously consider before buying the stick.
HOW I HEARD ABOUT THE HYDROGEN STICK
I first stumbled across Hydrogen Sticks on eBay, when I searched for "alkaline water ionizer" and strange entries about plastic sticks and other entries about assorted rocks encased in stainless steel sticks popped up. I read an Ebay description for the Hydrogen-Rich Water Stick (Water Ionizer Outperforms Machines alkaline ORP pH) with a great deal of skepticism, but decided to do a little research before discounting it - primarily due to the huge difference between the cost of the Hydrogen-Rich Water Stick and that of a typical water-ionizer machine ($75 vs. $875-4000).
WHY I DECIDED TO BUY A HYDROGEN STICK
It Really Does Put Hydrogen Gas Into Water. The presence of molecular hydrogen gas in water treated with a Hydrogen Stick was confirmed by a scientific study: "The hydrogen concentration in a water bottle was maintained between 0.55 and 0.65 mM over an 8 week period." (H2 exists as a gas at Standard Temperature and Pressure.) However, the study used 2 sticks per 500ml - four times the concentration of the 1 stick per 1L that I use.
Antioxidant Activity. Molecular hydrogen, H2, specifically targets the hydroxyl radical - a Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) that is one of the most plentiful and virulent species, and which evidently does not play a part in cell regulation ("Hydrogen acts as a therapeutic antioxidant by selectively reducing cytotoxic oxygen radicals").
Health Benefits. According to a scientific study, drinking hydrogen rich water for 8 weeks resulted in a 39% increase in the antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD) and a 43% decrease in thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) in urine (TBARS are a measure of the oxidized and damaged fats in your body). Additionally, an 8% increase in high density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol and a 13% decrease in total cholesterol/HDL-cholesterol was observed from baseline to week 4. If you want to boost your SOD levels by 40%, $75 for a 6-month supply is a bargain compared to the cost of supplements that would accomplish the same thing over the same time period. And improving your HDL/LDL ratio by 13% by merely drinking water every day seems like an easy way to improve that statistic (though I am no fan of the cholesterol scam, and once spent $350 of my own money just to get my doctor off of my back about my cholesterol levels).
Safety. "The portable magnesium stick was a safe, easy and effective method of delivering hydrogen rich water for daily consumption by participants in the study."
I Got to Perform a Personal Experiment Where a Placebo Effect Was Unlikely to Occur. I found a Hayashi article where he describes what he means by "hydrogen rich water" ("Japanese Cardiologist Dr. Hayashi's Two types of Water"). Oddly enough, this article was featured on a "Kangen Water" site, yet in it Hayashi claims that it is hydrogen-rich water that really matters, rather than pH or ORP. In his article, Hayashi says, "A week or two after people begin to use Hydrogen Rich Water, they notice that their feces have literally changed in comparison to when they were using tap water (hydrogen poor water). That is, the "blackish brown, bad-smelling, hard, heavy feces" of the tap water days changed to "light brown, soft, light feces without a strong bad odor" similar to the bowel movements that appear in the diapers of a breastfed baby...We adults tend to think that it is natural for adults feces to have a bad smell, but this is actually a great misconception...Every breastfeeding mother knows from her experience that when her baby has light- colored soft stool with very little bad odor, she can be sure that the baby is healthy, drinking plenty of breast milk, and growing well. On the other hand, when the baby has "blackish, bad-smelling, hard stool," the baby is cranky and feverish, and sometimes vomits up milk. The condition of producing offensive feces is generally called abnormal fermentation of gastrointestinal tract, which indicates the opposite of normal fermentation, but simply put, it is "decay." In other words, if the food we take in by mouth has a rotten smell (bad smell) when it is excreted from the anus, this means abnormal fermentation has taken place." Softer, less smelly stools can be easily verified, and it would be difficult to trick the body into making them.
PERSONAL SUPERSTITIONS THAT I OBSERVE WITH THE HYDROGEN STICK
Don't clean it any more than you have to. If you put it in an acid such as vinegar, the magnesium will be consumed at an accelerated rate, and your stick will not last as long. Obviously, if your stick is dead and doesn't produce bubbles any more, it's time to stick it into some vinegar that's been diluted 4:1 and hope that it comes back to life. Or if it starts looking green and moldy, by all means clean it - use common sense.
I use an old Schweppes Tonic Water bottle, because the closure seems secure. It seems to work fine, and the price was right.
Once or twice a week, I dump out all of the water, rinse off the stick, and vigorously rinse out the bottle. Just in case something has started to putrefy or I have some old germs in the water.
I originally used tap water, but I like the taste of Arrowhead bottled water better. This is all personal taste, and I doubt that it makes any difference on any therapeutic effects that the water might have.
I try not to have too big or too tiny of an air bubble inside of the bottle. If the bubble is too small, there doesn't seem to be as much hydrogen gas in the water (but this could be a hallucination - please reread the title of this section!). If the bubble is too large, I'm afraid that I'm producing a bunch of hydrogen gas that will be instantly blown off as soon as I open the bottle. I generally leave a bubble that includes the neck of the bottle and maybe 1/3" - 1/2" of the top of the shoulder.
I top off the bottle as soon as I take a drink. I try to pour the water into my open mouth rather than sucking on the bottle, to avoid backwashing and potentially contaminating the bottle with food particulates. I attempt to pour the refill water down the side of the bottle rather than splashing it into the center, because I have a superstition that the more the water is agitated, the more hydrogen gas will be dislodged and escape out of the open mouth of the bottle. Pouring water down the side of the bottle will ideally cause no bubbles or cavitation, leading to a...Read more›

EcoQuest Fresh Air Purifier 2.1 Ozone Free Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We live in a dusty place--agriculture nearby, windy conditions and a relatively dry climate mean constant dust. Plus we are in an area of high air pollution with coal-fired power plants. I find lots of dust in the house, and I know it makes me uncomfortable. We purchased the EcoQuest Fresh Air Purifier during a home show, and I find it lives up to its promises of cleaner air, though there is certainly a downside to using it (more about later.)
How it works
Some air purifiers work by filtering the air--they bring IN the air with a fan and blow it across a filter or precipitator to remove the dust. But the EcoQuest is different; it bombards the air with ions that make the dust fall down and break apart. While this sounds like science fiction, it is a well-known method of precipitating particles in many applications. Therefore, one EcoQuest works on a large area--in our case we use one for the main part of the house which is open plan and find it controls dust in the great room, the upstairs hallway and kitchen. (maybe a 1700 sq ft area.) When we need dust control in the bedrooms, we just move it in there. Normally, ours sits on the top of the stairs where it can reach the great room, hallways and kitchen.
This is the major advantage of the EcoQuest--since it doesn't rely on bringing air into it, you can position it to cover a large part of a house.
Appearance and Operation
The Ecoquest Fresh Air Purifier is a squarish box, black in front and with faux rosewood plastic on the side. I guess it is about as unobtrusive as you can get, not pretty but not ugly either. It is the size of four or five phone books standing on end. There is a front panel with lcd readout and press-membrane style controls.
The unit has an ultraviolet light that generates ozone and then inside, there is a plate of ceramic covered with a metal screen. This is the ion generator.
The fan has several speeds, from one to five, five being the loudest and fastest.
The UV lamp in our unit, with fairly constant use, has been in service for two years and has not shown any signs of burning out. So far, so good. You can choose settings based on the size of the area you wish to clean (small bedroom, car interior, large open room). We live in a pretty large open area, so we usually leave the unit on the 1750 sq ft setting.
You can choose how long to leave on the unit from 2,4, to 6 hours continuous operation, on high. This setting is for cleaning the house while you are gone. We choose to use this on days when the dust is getting to us, and we leave the house.
When we come home we notice:
1. The dust on the furniture is smaller in texture, and the carpets feel soft. The claim that the dust is broken down seems to be true.
2. We notice the lightning-struck smell of ozone. Some people find ozone a pleasant, fresh smell, but in large amounts, it is an irritant to me, and more than a little will give me a royal headache and makes me cough.
The Down Side
So, now, to the down side of the EcoQuest. The UV light generates ozone, and the ionizer plate apparently does as well. Ozone for many people, especially asthma suffers, is quite irritating. It's actually a toxic gas in large amounts. So one has to go cautiously with the EcoQuest and air out the house. Ozone is used by fire remediation to purify air after a disaster, and also to remove stubborn odors. It's a valid technique to purify air, as long as you remove the ozone afterwards. On its own, ozone is actually a pollutant. But it is a reactive type of molecule and breaks down, so getting rid of it is not difficult.
Maintenance
Monthly maintenance is required if you use the EcoQuest regularly or if the air is dirty. If you forget, a light goes on, indicating it's time to clean the ion generating plate. There is a ceramic plate inside you remove by unscrewing a back plate Then you vacuum off the plate and dust out the inside carefully. This takes us about 15 minutes.
Parts to replace would include the ceramic plate and the UV lamp. So far, in two years of constant use, we have not had to replace anything.
Summary
The EcoQuest lives up to its claim of reducing dust by breaking it down and by generating air-freshening ozone. However, too much ozone is a pollutant in itself. Therefore, you have to use it carefully and be mindful that if you cannot tolerate ozone, this may not be the purifier for you. As long as we don't crank up the ozone, we are quite happy with the unit. We have enjoyed good operating life with little maintenance so far.

Honeywell 16200 Desktop HEPA Air Purifier Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Pros:
-size, very compact
-can be placed horizontally or vertically to save space
-does a very good job of removing particles from the air
-ionizer removes odors
-price, try to find an air purifier/ionizer for under $40
Cons:
-fully effective for rooms 110 square feet or smaller
-noise level (at low it is slightly noticable, on medium you have to turn up the tv a few notches, on high it sounds like a fan or air conditioner on full blast)
For the price, it does a terrific job in smaller rooms with the only drawback being the noise (which on low is very bearable). I leave it on high all day while I'm at work, switch to medium in the evening and low at night and it does the trick.

Fresh And Alive 2G Budget Water Ionizer (Batch) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It amazes me how the simple process of electrolysis of water (running an electric current through water) to change its pH can be marketed into devices costing thousands of dollars. With a little basic understanding of the process of electrolysis of water, the concept of electrolytes in solution in water (salt or trace minerals), you can technically make your own device with by picking up a plug-in power adapter, some metal wire, some clips, a couple plastic jugs, a section of plastic plumbing pipe, and a sack membrane.
Even $198 is way overpriced for this simple contraption. With a combination of my laziness and the neat and tidy job these guys did in making this contraption, it is still $198 well spent, especially if you really look hard at those other models costing thousands and dissect them. Sure they look more technologically advanced, but they produce the same result in the end. Sure they have a water filter built in, but I have a perfectly functional Brita water filter that I've been using, and I just use that before I dump the filtered water into my $198 water ionizer and add a pinch of trace minerals.
This budget ionizer does the job as promised, is simple, foolproof, and brings results. The picture you see in the product page is exactly what you get. With such simple technology, fewer things go wrong, and you have complete control over the amount of trace minerals you throw in, the pH (by varying the time you electrolize the water), and you can feel good about how you only spend $198 while other victims of mass marketing and network marketing get scammed out of their hard-earned greenbacks.
Please do yourself a favor and don't get scammed into parting with thousands of dollars. Educate yourself with some basic knowledge and have some common sense.

The Fresh and Alive! 2G Budget Ionizer creates medical grade super alkaline and acid waters tens to hundreds of times stronger than other ionizers at a fraction of the cost. Unlike expensive flow-through ionizers that connect to your faucet or plumbing line and electrify the water as it flows through, our 2G batch model holds water in two tanks, one acid, and one alkaline, separated by a porous membrane. Using medical-grade titanium electrodes, the 2G electrifies the water with direct current electricity for up to 12 hours. When used as directed, the 2G Ionizer makes 3/4 gallon each of pH 10 to 11 alkaline water with ORP of -800 to -1,000 millivolts, and pH 4 to 5 acid waters with ORP of 800 to 1,000 millivolts, every 8 to 12 hours. These values are tens to hundreds of times stronger than found in flow-through models. The primary weakness of flow-through ionizers is their dependence on the quality of water coming from your tap. All ionizers must have minerals in the water to make ions that give the water a strong pH and electrical charge, the fewer minerals you have in your water, the weaker your ionized water will be. If you have limited minerals in your water, you will have weak ionized water, and many municipal supplies and wells have poorly mineralized (and frequently toxic) water. With the 2G Ionizer you can use good bottled or purified water and add your own trace minerals in order to make strong, pure ionized water. You can use any of the expensive flow-through ionizers that connect to your faucet such as Jupiter, Kangen, Enagic, Tyent, Microwater, and Delphi, but if your water is poor quality, you'll wind up with low pH values and ORP values. With the Fresh and Alive 2G Ionizer you have control over both the quality of water used and the strength of ionization, features not found in any flow-through model on the market. You'll also need liquid sea minerals, a water pH test kit, & urine pH test paper. See our ionizer bundle which includes those.

Jupiter Melody Water Ionizer - Model JP104 - 5 Yr. Warranty Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I LOVE THIS UNIT. We have had a reverse osmosis water filter for 5 years, ever since I had become seriously ill and decided to overcome my health issues by changing my diet and detoxifying my body through food, supplements and alternative healing. The reverse osmosis filter removes absolutely all impurities from the water, but leaves it energetically dead, and acidic, so you have to alkalize it. Now that I have recovered my health, I was searching for an easier alternative. The RO filter was time consuming and did not produce enough water daily for our family plus the 4 replacement cartridges were getting expensive. It was not really cheaper than buying distilled water when you considered the filter costs.
So I researched many water Ionizers including the Kangen. For the price, this one is really the best.
PROS:
Water tastes fantastic. You want to keep drinking it.
Easy to install. Great instructional video too.
Easy to use - hooks up to the faucet and has a nice switch valve at the tap - no need to connect & disconnect every time you use it.
It records how much water has been through the filter so you get a better idea of when to change the filter.
Does not take up a lot of space.
Produces a range of alkaline and acidic water
Relatively inexpensive compared to other Ionizers
CONS:
Does not remove ALL of the flouride from the water. IT removes about 70%.
Like all IOnizers and Reverse Osmosis systems, it uses a lot of water to make the good water. i.e. this is not eco-friendly.
Also note that I bought it from the Canadian distributor on Amazon. They were quick to get back to me with a few pre-purchase questions and offered to re-imburse me for any customs/duty charges I might have when the post office delivered.

ALKALINE HYDROGEN WATER STICK -TRAVEL SIZE Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Before I bought this product I did plenty of online research on alkaline water. I was trying to understand what the benefits were and why people would pay thousands of dollars for the water ionizers. Some of the conclusions that I came to was that the alkalinity of the water was not the beneficial aspect of the water ionizers, but rather the antioxidant effects of the water. As I understand, the antioxidant effects of water or solution is measured in ORPs, which stands for Oxidation Reduction Potential, also called Redox. ORPs also measure the oxidizing effects of water.
The effects of oxidation can be witnessed when metal rusts, when a sliced apple browns, or when a material is burning. Oxidation probably works similarly in the human body, though I am not a biologist or scientist and cannot make any claims. It seems that this is why antioxidants are so popular and said to be such an important part of the body's diet. If oxidation has the effect of breaking down, then antioxidants could be said to have the effect of building up, or at least not breaking down. Please do your own research to verify the accuracy of this information.
We were contemplating purchasing one of the less expensive water ionizers ($700 range), but it didn't seem to make sense when some of the portable and inexpensive water ionizers such as this stick were making claims of producing negative ORP, which would be antioxidant water (I think). The expensive machines claim to produce water with an ORP in the range of anywhere from -200 to as high (or low) as -1100. As you might guess, ORP in the negative range is an antioxidant, whereas ORP in the positive range is an oxidant (again I think). I don't know where exactly the transition point is, meaning if 0 ORP is perfectly neutral or not.
So I decided to purchase a digital ORP meter ($100) that also measured pH at the same time I ordered the portable ionizer sticks (I ordered a NewCell Alkaline Hydrogen Portable Water Ionizer Stick and a Alkaline Hydrogen Water Stick aka Diet Water Ion Stick), since using a meter is the only way to determine the ORP and this is the critical measurement. Fortunately everything arrived at the same time. Over the next few days I ran a battery of tests using different waters and taking measurements before using the stick and after. The tests were performed in my kitchen and not highly controlled, although I did do my best by rinsing everything with each new sample using the water of that particular sample as the rinse. By the way, the two portable ionizer sticks were identical, the only difference was that one cost twice as much.
Per the instructions on the portable water ionizer I placed the stick inside of a water bottle and shook for 30 seconds, then let sit for 20 minutes. I took before and after samples. Here are the results of the tests:
These first two tests I did out of the box, the remaining 7 I did a few days later.
Tap water
Before
pH: 8.17
ORP: 490
After
pH: 9.02
ORP: -125
Distilled water
Before
pH: 6.9
ORP: 230
After
pH: 10.02
ORP: -80
These tests I did a few days after I had the ionizer sticks and had been using them frequently (I only used one of the two sticks to keep the results consistent, though I get similar results from either stick):
Tap water
Before
pH: 8.29
ORP: 579
After
pH: 8.75
ORP: 75
Distilled water
Before
pH: 6.45
ORP: 350
After
pH: 10.06
ORP: 13
Arrowhead brand
Before
pH: 7.82
ORP: 243
After
pH: 8.41
ORP: 50
Crystal Geyser brand
Before
pH: 6.88
ORP: 260
After
pH: 7.34
ORP: 4
Safeway brand spring water
Before
pH: 7.67
ORP: 251
After
pH: 8.75
ORP: 24
Evian brand
Before
pH: 7.49
ORP: 258
After
pH: 8.0
ORP 10
Fuji brand
Before
pH: 7.88
ORP: 262
After
pH: 8.07
ORP 23
Conclusions: As you can see from the results the ionizer sticks had the most significant effects on the distilled and tap waters. Also, I forgot to remove the stick one morning and it sat in the water for almost 2 hours. It raised the pH of the water by about another half point from the standard results but had no appreciable effects on the ORP. It seems that shaking the water vigorously for a longer period of time will get you lower ORP.
I think that these products are definitely worth the money, and I would recommend purchasing an ORP meter if you are serious about getting the results you want.
I hope this information helped you.
