What is Oxygenated Water?
By increasing the atmospheric pressure around water, or bubbling diffused high-oxygen air through water, the level of dissolved oxygen in water will be increased. This is a measurable fact. When vendors sell oxygenated water, it is possible to sell water with a higher level of dissolved oxygen than will be found in tap or regular bottled water. Who Benefits from Water with a High Level of Dissolved Oxygen? Fish and many amphibians will draw more oxygen into their systems if they are in water with a high level of dissolved oxygen. Their gills are designed to draw oxygen from water. If your local area reports a “Fish kill” where a lake or river sees an unusual number of dead fish, the most likely causes are pollution or low levels of dissolved oxygen. Most states make regular checks of the levels of dissolved oxygen in their lakes and rivers as a method of determining the health of the local ecosystem. Human Digestion Since oxygenated water should end up in a human’s stomach, the higher
