Negatively Charged Water – Everything You Need to Know!

Scientists have found that negatively charged water accumulates around water-loving surfaces PLUS the cells inside our bodies. Have you ever wondered what stops water from pouring out of jello? Or what stops sandcastles from collapsing?

Interestingly, you can further support our bio-activities, strengthen your immune system, and stay better hydrated by supercharging and transforming your water!

Negatively charged water resembles a gel that gets energy from radiant energy, commonly from the sun. In fact, it’s a liquid-crystalline state of water called EZ water, the fourth phase of water, hexagonal water, or structured water. 1

In this article, we will explore what is negatively charged water, how to make it, and the top reasons for drinking this special water!

What is Negatively Charged Water?

Pure water, also known as bulk water, creates a structured state of water with negative energy when beside hydrophilic surfaces. This special water also grows under the influence of radiant energy – specifically sunlight. 2

What makes a BIG difference is how water molecules act together… A single water molecule is a “polar molecule”. Where the two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom create a balanced charge.

Interestingly, water molecules don’t just work alone. This is most evident when water freezes and becomes ice (or snow crystals) – that form with hexagonal patterns.

These structures also occur in liquid water when it changes into a liquid-crystalline state of matter, known as structured water.

Water-loving surfaces influence nearby water molecules to cluster in hexagonal lattice formations that can be one million molecular layers thick. Notably, negatively charged water is stable, constrained, and aligned. Making it possible to replicate and enjoy!

Hydrophilic (water-loving) surfaces include rocks, plants, minerals, sand, quartz crystals, biological cells, and a plethora of other things.

How Does Water Acquire a Negative Charge?

The structured waters’ negative charge comes down to some basic scientific principles:

  • Like particles naturally attract each other, including negatively charged particles. This is also known as like likes like.
  • Crystalline structures can hold piezoelectricity in centrosymmetric phases.
  • The negative energy is formed, retained, and even expanded, by a combination of hydrophilic surfaces and radiant energy. 3 4 5

Is Tap Water Negatively Charged?

Tap water is not negatively charged, structured water. Chemical water treatments, non-movement, and darkness result in unstructured water that doesn’t resemble living water.

Although there are amazing solutions you can plumb into your household water supply to drastically improve your water! Best of all there are no filters to replace or maintenance required.

Negatively Charged Water Benefits

Interestingly, biological cells are encased with a thin film of water with a negative charge. 6

By adopting this special water into our daily routine we can improve our gut microbiome and immune system, allow our brain to function with more coherence, support our cardiovascular system, and maintain healthy DNA!

Beyond that, there are many structured water benefits when drinking or watering our plants.

How to Make Negatively Charged Water

You can easily make negatively charged water at home with a number of different techniques and devices. To make the water stable to be consumed later, you will need to utilize radiant energy (the sun’s rays) to balance and recharge. Here are your options:

  • A structured water wand supercharges water! Travel-friendly and small, yet powerful – it contains a quartz tube full of highly coherent water that energizes other water on contact. Similar to how fiber optics transmits information.
  • Opt for a whole-house structured water unit. Simply install it on your mains supply and have amazing water flowing out of your kitchen faucet, shower head, and garden hose! (Check out the science here)
  • Sun-charged water is made with radiant, light energy and is a free option to make great drinking water.
  • Vortexed water revitalizes water through the power of implosion. The water molecules smash into each other, breaking down the structure, allowing gaseous contaminants to be released, and restructuring into structured water. A great option if you have access to high-quality natural spring water or rainwater!

  3. Sun-charged water
  4. Vortexed Water
  5. Magnetic Water Conditioner

The Benefit of Waterfalls and Negatively Charged Ions

When water falls from a high altitude (such as from a waterfall), the water droplets collide with one another and break up. This results in negatively charged air ions that cling to clusters of water molecules. 6 7

Also known as The Waterfall Effect or The Lenard Effect, this phenomenon was first explored in modern science over one hundred years ago by Philipp Lenard, a Nobel laureate in physics.

There are hundreds of academic studies on negative air ions. One such study reviewed 187 studies from 2013-2023 7. The research shows they improve energy production, reduce inflammation, and MUCH more.

Other Sources of Negative Ions

  • Ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun and sun-charged water.
  • The air after a thunderclap or lightning strike
  • A byproduct of plant growth.

Waterfalls Improve Health Outcomes

2018 review of ionization literature also found that negative ions that are found around waterfalls affect many facets of human health. Researchers looked at 100 years of studies and found evidence that negative ions could:

  • help regulate sleep patterns and mood
  • reduce stress
  • boost immune system function
  • increase metabolism of carbs and fats
  • kill or inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria, viruses, and mold species, such as E. coliStaphylococcus aureus, and the bacterium that causes tuberculosis

How to Include Negatively Charged Water Into Your Daily Routine

You can transform your regular drinking water into highly coherent, structured water by using the Analemma water wand. Stir water with the wand to discover the texture noticeably softer on the tongue, better quenching your thirst, and other long-term, amazing health outcomes!

Other ways to structure and negatively charge water:

  • If you have time (a few days) then you can make sun-charged water – a process where sunlight, full of UV radiation and other energies, transforms water.
  • By using a good technique or some basic equipment – you can vortex your water to remove chlorine, improve the pH, and add dissolved oxygen.

FAQs

Do Water Ionizers Make Negatively Charged Water?

No, water ionizers make a form of negatively charged, mineralized water.

Fundamentally, pure water does not have other elements or minerals.

The process for making ionizer water is electrolysis. Achieved by using platinum-coated titanium (or similar) electrodes with a negative and a positive charge. This involves passing an electric current through the water, where the water molecules split into positively charged hydrogen ions (H+) and negatively charged hydroxide ions (OH-).

The finished product is both acidic and alkaline water, that is separated by mineral concentrations found in the water.

The drinking water has a higher pH (alkaline) with minerals that typically include calcium, sodium, potassium, and magnesium.

What is the pH of Negatively Charged Water?

Pure water registers at 7, or neutral, on the pH scale.

Although pure water can be hard to obtain… For filtered water, the structuring method can also alter the pH. Most relevant, by vortexing Water you can release gaseous chemicals, such as chlorine, that has been shown to make water more alkaline.

Can Negatively Charged Water Have Trace Minerals?

Yes, although the liquid-crystalline water clusters allow the minerals to not interfere with the solubility of the water. Allowing the water to be super hydrating, while still providing the necessary trace minerals.

Is Drinking Negatively Charged Water Safe?

Negatively charged water is safe when made from natural hydrophilic surfaces or by harnessing the sun’s rays.

There are many benefits including properly hydrating cells, supplying abundant energy for efficient biological activities, and seamless detoxing.
