Making Bio-magnetic water is quite simple: just place a glass or container filled with water on a Magnetic Coaster or put a Magnetic Water Stick in your glass. Never use a metal container. How long you need to leave the water on the magnet will depend on how much water you have: we suggest 5-10 minutes for a glass and one hour for a jar of water. It won't hurt to leave it there longer, you can even just leave the container on the Magnetic Coaster (or with Magnetic Water Stick in it) and refill it as you use the water. The water will stay magnetized for several days after you take it off the magnet. What is Bio-magnetic water? Water is paramagnetic - meaning that it will hold a magnetic charge. In nature, the earth's magnetic field naturally charges water in lakes, wells, and running streams. However, as water passes through treatment plants and is transported through pipes, it loses its magnetic charge. Treating water with magnetic fields restores the natural energy and balance that nature intended. Magnetized water has more hydroxyl (OH-) ions that form alkaline molecules which reduces the acidity. Normal tap water has a pH of about 7. Magnetized water is more alkaline and can have a pH as high as 9.2. Magnetizing water reduces the surface tension of the water making it feel softer. It is thinner, wetter, and more absorb able, so it is better able to penetrate cell walls and deliver the nutrients that it carries. Pets Animals have a 'nose' for bio-magnetic water! Your pets will enjoy many of the same benefits from bio-magnetic water that you do. They will drink more water, have more energy, and feel younger and healthier. Just place Water Bowl Magnet in a bowl and see the amazing result! ? ? Plants Bio-magnetic water will help your plants grow stronger, greener and larger. In one study seedlings' germination rates were 68% with bio-magnetic water, while with non-magnetized water only 8% germinated. In another study, Texas A&M researchers found that squash weighed 24% more when it was grown with magnetized water vs. non-magnetized water. Bio-magnetic water is more solvent and has a lower surface tension, so nutrients in the water are absorbed more readily. Thus you get a healthier plant while using less fertilizer. No other drink can replace water! Water is a solvent and cleansing agent. You don‘t do your washing in coffee, tea, beer, cola, juice or milk. What is good for textile fibers is equally good for your blood vessels. A tip for people who do not like pure water: add a dash of lemon or a shot of apple juice to your water. You will give it a pleasant taste without reducing its cleansing effect.
