ORP (Oxidation-reduction potential) is the most important characteristic of the system, including the internal environment of the body. At positive ORP values, the substance is an oxidizing agent; at negative values, it is a reducing agent. The more negative the ORP value, the more effectively the substance fights oxidants.
The ORP of the internal environment of the human body is normally negative (from -100 to -200 mV). ORP of body fluid (new born baby) - 100 ~ -300 mV.
The ORP of tap or bottled water is positive (from +200 to +700 mV).
Water with a negative ORP occurs in nature only in a few places, among them, for example, Nordenau water in Germany, Lourdes spring water (Miracle water) in France -under -300 mV.
When drinking water is saturated with hydrogen due to the dissolution of molecular hydrogen in water, its ORP acquires negative values, which indicates the predominance of reduction processes.
When water with a positive ORP enters the body, it takes electrons away from cells. As a result, they are subject to oxidative destruction. In order to absorb such water, the body needs to expend energy. If the ORP of water is close to the ORP value of the internal environment, then such water is biologically compatible and is better absorbed. If drinking water has a more negative ORP than the ORP of the internal environment of the body, then it feeds it with energy and neutralizes oxidants.
The ORP of hydrogen water is about -500 mV. Thus, hydrogen water is a healthy water and effective reducing agent, antioxidant and source of energy for the body.
