ACTIVATED WATER
What is Activated Water?
Currently, there is no clear definition of activated water or functional water. Here, we refer to water that inherently possesses higher energy than regular water or water that has had its energy enhanced through some means as activated water.
Additionally, water with specific functionalities is termed functional

1. Importance of Water and Its Environmental Impact
In recent years, global environmental issues have become increasingly serious, with many of them related to water. Addressing environmental challenges is difficult, encompassing not only water quality concerns but also the looming issue of water scarcity. Rapid population growth and the impact of abnormal weather patterns, in particular, have brought quantitative water problems to the forefront.
The excessive use of chemical substances and the wastefulness of water resources in industrial processes contribute to environmental issues. -
2. Characteristics of Water and the Concept of Activated Water
Water is a molecule with unique properties, with water molecules binding through hydrogen bonds in the liquid state. The characteristics of these water molecules are related to the formation of activated water. Activated water typically has higher nergy than ordinary water, and it refers to water whose activity has been enhanced by some means. Functional water is defined as activated water with specific purposes or effects.
