Alkaline water, also known as ionized water, is water that has a pH level greater than eight; it is produced to improve longevity ([[:File:UNN_Medical_Geology_Fig_18.png|Figure 18]]). It removes oxidants, detoxifies the cells, enhances blood circulation and removes pathogens.
It supplies the cells with Na, Mg, K and Ca and increases the body metabolism. According to Tan Koon (2013), it provides negative Oxidation-Reduction Potential (ORP), thereby slowing down the ageing process.

It is made using 13 different materials such as tourmaline, zeolite, clay, calcium ion pellet, magnesium and negative potential pellet (Fig. 19).

Tourmaline electrolyzes the water by generating negative ions, thus reducing water cluster. Zeolite is negatively charged; it easily absorbs free radicals and viral particles. It traps nitrosamines in the digestive tract to cancel any chance of type II diabetes. Due to its negative charge, zeolite can attract toxins such as heavy metals, pesticides and herbicides. These can then pass safely out of the body without re-absorption (Tan Koon, 2013).
