Guest guest Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 The only way that I know of to actually test if you have structured water is with an ORP/ Redox meter. The surface tension could be tested, but most people could never afford the equipment to do it. Highly structured water will have a reading of between -600 and -800. You can but a descent meter on ebay for less than $50 and what you learn from it is quite useful. This is the same reading that you will get when you dissolve a MegaHydrate tablet in a glass of water. To compare this, a fresh strawberry has a Redox of -150 and most other fresh fruits will be in this range. This should give you a very good idea of what you are dealing with. Structured water is awesome stuff.

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010  Hi Jim, I have an Extech Exstik ORP meter, but I don't know how accurate it is. I'm going to try and run some tests to see what comes up. 1) Started with tap water from the sink. (TDS=385 ORP=+490) I then ran it through the blender device.......(ORP=+515) 2) Tap + a pinch of sea salt. (TDS=595 ORP=+480) I then ran it through the blender device.......................(ORP=+480) 3) Filtered water (TDS=05 ORP=+430) I ran it through the blender device..........................................................(ORP=+415) 4) Filtered water + pinch of sea salt. (TDS=245 ORP=+420) I ran it through the blender device.....................(ORP=+415) Very disappointing results, to say the least. The vortex blending and the magnets don't seem to have any effect at all on the ORP.

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 That is a shame. I was all set to try this and still may. I am a great Viktor Schauberger fan also and have spent more than a few hours doing home experiments with vortexes and electromagnetic fields. He was(is) an undervalued genius.

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010  Hi Jim, Are you sure about the validity of the relationship between "Structured Water and ORP"? The following excerpt is from an article whose link follows.... Structured Water is extensively tested. It has a pH level of between 8.5 and 11 and it doesn’t have oxidizing reduction potential (ORP). Due to this, it is regarded as an outstanding natural anti-oxidant. Its anti-oxidant properties are able to clear the body of high acidic levels, toxins, and other accrued poisons. http://www.lavenderessentialoils.com/alternative-medicine/structured-water-improves-your-chance-of-long-term-health Re: [ ] Re:STRUCTURED VORTEX WATER DEVICES The only way that I know of to actually test if you have structured water is with an ORP/ Redox meter.

Do you mean it has an ORP of 0 (zero), which would make it neutral? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010  I don't know what the proper ORP for structured water is, or should be. I'm only saying that I believe that the amount of structuring and the ORP are independent from each other. Hopefully, I'm correct. I am re-posting my results with the blender. 1) Started with tap water from the sink. (TDS=385 ORP=+490) I then ran it through the blender device.......(ORP=+515) 2) Tap + a pinch of sea salt. (TDS=595 ORP=+480) I then ran it through the blender device.......................(ORP=+480) 3) Filtered water (TDS=05 ORP=+430) I ran it through the blender device..........................................................(ORP=+415) 4) Filtered water + pinch of sea salt. (TDS=245 ORP=+420) I ran it through the blender device.....................(ORP=+415) Very disappointing results, to say the least. The vortex blending and the magnets don't seem to have any effect at all on the ORP. Negative ORP is beneficial, and although these results are all in the positive 400 to 500 range, I'm hoping that the water was still structured to some degree.

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 You need to listen to Dr. Flanagan's tape on structured water. From there, you have to believe that he is correct in what he says. The guy is either a cook or a genius according to who you ask, but I am of a strong opinion that he is right on the money in his study with water that he took from Dr. Henry Conanda, the inventor of snow making. He took Conanda's work and used it to develop MegaHydrate and claims that it mimics the characteristics of Hunza Water.  I have tested the ORP of MegaHydrate in water as I have said. It does exactly what Flanagan claims. It also reduces the surface tension of water to the point that particles that normally float in it sink. Flanagan goes on to claim that unlike other antioxidants, the negative hydrogen molecules do not stop working when they reduce the free radical oxygen molecules to water... I should probably listen to his tape again, but I don't see how that can be. Finally, I have seen this stuff work in wonderful ways when it comes to wellness and health, so I have been a big fan of their work for many years. Viktor Schauberger was the father of all of this. No one knows what Flanagan did to make his product and it is not patented. Some have attempted to duplicate it and I have tested their products... they simply do not cut it. I would love to find a way to duplicate the effect of MegaHydrate with elbow grease and you appeared to do till you tested it. One other way would be to live in the Andes Mountains and gather your own water. Flanagan says that his loses its potency after a few years, but Hunza water never does (I have never tested either statement). Flanagan did claim that that he came up with temporary ways to do this during his experiments before he hit on his answer, so it can be done in other ways. Certainly, yours made sense. I gave you a simple test for experimentation. It is quick and costs nothing. So far, I have come up with duds. In any event, good luck with your work. I have great hopes that one of us succeeds.

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 : By the way, I said that Hunza Water has an ORP of -(minus)800 mv, not +800 mv. That is why it works as it does. This is not just low... it is ridiculously low. In fact, I have never seen anything that duplicates the characteristics of Flanagan's MegaHydrate and I have tried for years. If you drink that water every day, as Flanagan says, you should live to be 130 yrs old. It all makes sense to me and so far, it proves out.

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010  Hi again Jim, I share your aspirations...130 is such a nice round number with a good ring to it. ) I'll check out Flannagan ( I've read about him in the past, but have forgotten most of what I read ) if you'll check out Clayton Nolte. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jNWAdbhZUo & feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTeSjE7jNUA & feature=related Then we can compare notes...and I would welcome comments and/or suggestions from anyone else who wishes to join this worthy quest towards a 130 year old birthday party celebration.

Guest guest Posted September 22, 2010 Report Share Posted September 22, 2010 Hi : Something that I did not make clear earlier is that Hunza Water is a particular kind of structured water. Thus, structured water is not the same as in that it does not necessarily have all of the naturally occurring nanoparticles suspended in it as does Hunza Water. Therefore, Hunza Water is a specialized case of structured water. However, Hunza Water is, of course, structured. For this reason, your water may be structured, but it is not really what I am looking for. MegaHydrate when dissolved in tap water immediately transforms it into structured water, so it can save those looking for Hunza Water a very long trip, but they must pay for it. Nolte's work with structured water is closely aligned with the Joe Cell which employs structured water to run engines fueless. In working with the Joe Cell (Cellery), we were always interested in using structured water. New water (rain water) has not achieved the degree of freedom necessary and distilled water is dead as is piped water. The best source of structured water unless you happen to live next to a mountain stream is an open surface spring... and no, well water is not the same, but it is far better than water confined to pipes if you dip it in an old fashioned bucket and it is of high enough quality. Pipes and pressure kill structured water. Also, see the very lovely work of Masaru Emoto http://www.unitedearth.com.au/watercrystals.html Here he discovered the value of structured water through his study of snow flakes and ice crystals. This man pretty well had it figured out, but his work has never found its way to the mainstream and it is quickly being forgotten. When it comes to this and related subjects, mainstream science is particularly disinterested. Periodically, these topics seem to find their way back into the public eye. This seems to occur in rather close cycles (with even the recent past being completely disregarded or never uncovered) as apparently Nolte has done in his work. I have to ask, why has Nolte done this? And also, that of Dr. F. Batmanghelidj http://www.watercure.com/ which is oriented toward the life giving effects of free flowing water. Nolte's explanation for "entrainment" and that phenomenon was familiar to me even though I had not heard his term for it. I had heard this stated previously, though never actually tested it by his proximity test. It is well known that pouring a small amount of structured water into a container of tap water will transform it (to a limit). Needless to say, anyone who has studied the above work would not find Clayton Nolte's particularly newsworthy, but all would agree with what he said. However, I do share his enthusiasm for structured water..
