What does the negative ORP value of reduced alkaline water mean for health?
A negative ORP value indicates the propensity of a chemical species to donate electrons. Oxidants or free-radicals in the body strip vital electrons from our body. Proteins and DNA molecules deform and start to undergo massive amounts of damage from the loss of electrons. Electrons are also lost due to environmental pollutants inhaled or consumed via other means. Reduced Alkaline Water by virtue of its strongly negative ORP tends to accept electrons from these free-radicals bombarding the human physiological systems. They therefore offer their electrons readily to prevent these radicals from taking away electrons from vital biomolecules.
