"Alkaline water" has a pH higher than neutral. If the pH is below 7, the water is acidic; above 7, it is alkaline. Meanwhile, hydrogen water (or hydrogen-rich water) contains dissolved hydrogen (H2) molecules.

Hydrogen-rich alkaline ionized water is becoming increasingly popular with modern families due to its ability to help neutralize excess acid, contribute to antioxidant effects, and improve the body's internal balance. Using electrolysis technology, this water is created through a process that separates water into a form rich in alkaline ions and containing dissolved hydrogen molecules. The benefits of this type of water have been recognized by many studies.

A busy modern lifestyle and habits such as consuming alcohol, carbonated drinks, and fatty fast food, combined with continuous work and prolonged stress, can lead to an imbalance of acid and alkali in the body. This causes an increase in stomach acid.

In a clinical study conducted by Shiga University of Medical Science in collaboration with Ohkura National Hospital (Japan), six volunteers drank 1 liter per day of alkaline ionized water with pH levels of 9, 10, and 11, respectively. Researchers noted that after drinking alkaline ionized water with a pH of 9, the pH in the stomach increased and remained higher for about 30 minutes, suggesting the water's ability to help control acidity. Acidity is often imbalanced in people with diets high in fat, those who consume alcohol, or those under prolonged stress.

In addition, studies like the one by Dr. Lei Huang (Loma Linda University, USA) show that hydrogen in water can diffuse deep into cells and selectively react with hydroxyl radicals - one of the most harmful free radicals. This selectivity allows hydrogen to target harmful free radicals without affecting other reactive oxygen and nitrogen molecules, which play a role in regulating the cell’s normal biological signaling.

The antioxidant capacity of this water is measured by the ORP index. The lower the negative ORP value, the greater the antioxidant capacity. Therefore, when researching hydrogen-rich alkaline ionized water, consumers should consider factors such as pH, ORP, and hydrogen content to make an informed choice.

Based on this scientific evidence, hydrogen-rich alkaline ionized water purifiers are being chosen by many families as a solution that combines providing clean water with health support. The Vietnamese brand Mutosi has developed a line of machines capable of producing hydrogen-rich alkaline ionized water with stable post-filtration indicators, applying an additional RO membrane to adapt to various water sources in the country.

According to Mutosi, the indicators of the water produced from their purifiers support neutralizing excess acid and have antioxidant properties with long-term use. This is the result of years of research by Mutosi on water sources and the Vietnamese lifestyle.

Investing in a water purifier contributes to ensuring a safe water source while also supporting health care. Mutosi offers products that combine technology and design with affordable prices for Vietnamese consumers.
