Re: Does the Japan Ministry of Health back alkaline water?

Last I heard it was not Japan at number one for health, but rather Switzerland.

How do we know that the statement about 1/5th of the Japanese households have water ionizers is true? Because a sales site claims this?

They also claim that Warburg got his Nobel Prize for proving that cancer cells needed an anaerobic environment to live. This is also false. What Warburg said, and was awarded the Nobel Prize for was for showing that cancer would ferment REGARDLESS of whether or not oxygen was present.

How do you get that this is an unbiased site when they sell water ionizers? Click on there Enagic corporate link at the bottom to see all the ionizers they sell.

Did you actually read the certificate? It is hard to make it out, but if you copy it then open and enlarge it in Word you will see that this is a manufacturing license, not a license for use in medicine. This would require approval from the Japanese Ministry of Health. That is not who issued the certificate. No wonder they made sure the image was so blurry so it was going to be next to impossible to read.

Based on the above lies and misleading statements I trust them even less now!

Nope, I would not touch a water ionizer, or ever recommend one to anyone.
