A favor for Mama Gaia and our own bodies’ simply through owning a Kangen Machine!
The Kangen Machine produces 7 pH levels of water ranging from 2.5-11.5, and only three of them are actually drinking water.
2.5 being very acidic and killing 99.9% of bacteria and is therefore an alternative for bleach. 6.0 with the pH of rain water that can be used for beauty treatment and more. 7.0 being the Clean Water setting with a neutral pH. 8.5-9.5 being the drinking water settings with a high concentration of anti-oxidants click here to read about the health benefits. 11.5 being the Strong Alkaline Water that can break up oils.
Pretty diverse huh!? In this post let’s get into the true magic lying behind this whole other side of our beloved living water. It doesn’t only hold the potential to bring us back to origin but the earth too by living more eco-friendly. I bet you would not expect some of these uses!
These are only some of the uses and the main ones we as a community love, to see the full list of the 100 uses of Kangen Water click here.
Some of our personal faves:

Skin treatments
One of the most relevant ways to use Kangen water on our own bodies, is to treat our skin. With it being our largest organ constantly exposing it to chemicals can harm our bodies over-time. Here are some conditions you can easily treat with Kangen.
Acne, Eczema and Psoriasis
This water is a true genius to treat skin conditions. Using a mixture of waters is the secret: Rinse with pH 11.5 Strong Alkaline Water to remove excess oils from the skin. Cleanse with non-soap cleanser and pH 4-6 Mild Acidic Water. With a cotton swab dab pH 2.5 Strong Acidic Water on any active blemishes or broken skin. Tone with pH 4-6 Water in a glass bottle with a fine spray mister. Repeat morning and bedtime. Tone multiple times per day to keep skin hydrated.
Rashes and Burns
Also here, rinse with pH 11.5 Strong Alkaline Water to remove excess oils from the skin. Cleanse with non-soap cleanser and pH 4-5 Mild Acidic Water. With a cotton swab dab 2.5 Strong Acid Water on any broken skin. Tone with pH 4-6 Mild Acidic Water in a glass bottle with a fine spray mister. Repeat morning and bedtime. Tone multiple times per day to keep skin hydrated.
Diaper Rash
For all the mamas and papas out there, of course treating our little ones with least chemicals possible is just as important, as our home or ourselves. Here is the formula to treating diaper rashes just with water: Cleanse with non-soap cleanser and pH 4-5 Mild Acidic Water & pat dry. With a cotton swab dab 2.5 Strong Acid Water on any broken skin and let dry. Hydrate the skin with pH 4-6 Mild Acidic Water in a glass bottle with a fine spray mist setting. Repeat after each diaper change. Diaper rash begins with urine and feces that are too acidic. To prevent diaper rash begin by making certain that your baby is properly hydrated with pH 8.5-9.5 Alkaline Drinking Water. Next replace baby wipes with a container filled with soft cloths or unbleached paper towels and Mild Acidic Water. Use to cleanse diaper area each time you change your baby, pat dry and then apply a very fine mist to the skin. This assists in keeping the pH of the skin balanced.

Cleaning
This is the day-to day for our Namico Members. A non-negotiable, at this point we can’t imagine using a different product for each of these now that we can get it all straight from our machine. Cleaning is something relevant for everyone and will save you not only money of having to buy all these products, but also time and plastic packaging.
Laundry Detergent
This is hands down one of the top uses our members love! Many laundry detergents are full of toxins and packed in plastic. Now imagine you could save all that money, the plastic and save yourself from chemical exposure! Here’s how: Fill up a jug 1-2 litres of 11.5. Add essential oil of your choice. Mix together and add to your laundry load. Works beautifully for any heavy or greasy smells too, even like Fast-food Restaurant work clothes.
Stains on Clothes, Rugs and Carpets
Clean oil based stains by soaking the area and letting sit for 10 to 20 minutes and then blot out of carpets. For specific stains on clothes, washing properly (as mentioned above) is best advised after soaking the area and blotting.
Window Cleaner
Also one of our favorites: Fill spray bottle with 6.0 pH water. That’s it. Use that as window cleaner and enjoy. Zero stripes, zero toxins.
Disinfectant
You can use the 2.5 for anything that you would disinfect, as the 2.5 Water ‘Hypochlorous Acid’ kills 99.9% of bacteria making it stronger than bleach it will replace a lot of products you might currently be using. Whether it’s for surfaces, the bathroom, dishes, or so much more: it will be your best friend.
Cleaning oily surfaces or Materials
The 11.5 can be used for cleaning your oven, dishes, oily spots and more. As it emulsifies oils it is the best non-toxic cleaner you can find.

Beauty Treatments
Beauty products are so often made of chemical components to reverse the symptoms a lot of chemicals cause in the first place. Let’s reverse this process and utilize water to return to the original wellbeing.
Soap
This is such a basic one that will 100% make a difference in your home. Use 11.5 for any type of Soap, we like to use it for the face and hands. As it breaks up oils and no bacteria can survive in a very alkaline environment it’s perfect.
Hair Conditioner
Spray your hair with 6.0 after a shower! Especially if you aren’t using Enagic’s Anespa shower filter! Most city water supply’s pH is way off that which your hair needs. 6.0 being the pH of rain water, it does not stress your hair like most water does and will bring it back to balance. If your hair is always dry it might not even be your hair but the water it’s coming in contact with. Get ready for the softest hair, boys and girls!
Mouthwash
You can use the 2.5 pH to rinse your mouth, morning and night. You will never have to buy any mouth wash ever again, and this might even be more effective as it kills 99.9% of all bacteria.
Eye Wash
A little formula on how to give your eyes some love with Kangen: Rinse eyes with an eye cup. Upon removing the eye cup from its packaging, soak in Strong Acid Water (pH 2.5) for 1-2 minutes to clean and disinfect. Rinse the eye cup thoroughly with Strong Alkaline Water (pH 11.5) Fill the cup, following package directions, with Strong Alkaline Water (pH 11.5) Place cup firmly around one eye, keeping your eye open, tilt your head back and gently roll your eye as though you were attempting to look up, down, and from side to side. Continue this for approximately 1 minute. Now that you have completed one eye, toss the water away. Rinse the eye cup thoroughly with Strong Acid Water (pH 2.5) Repeat steps for your other eye. To maintain healthy eyes follow this protocol 1-3 times per week. When working to improve any eye condition, follow this protocol at least 2 times daily and up to 10 times per day.
Puffy Eyes:
Just spray 11.5 on to eyes to reduce puffiness.
This is how Dan and Aimee love to have the water ready to use in their home:
Conclusion
