Normal Use
For normal use add one to three sticks to .5 to 2.0L of water. Use a container no larger than 1.5L for one stick, 1L or less is best. Use any water that is safe for drinking. Filtered tap water is best and most economical. Using the stick with highly alkaline waters (such as water already processed by an ionizing machine) will lessen the hydrogen output of the stick and is not recommended.

1. Thoroughly rinse the new stick under running water and place in a personal water bottle with an air-tight cap. Fill the bottle all the way to remove as much air as possible. Shut the cap and shake well.
2. Wait 10-20 minutes depending on your bottle size and shake again before enjoying the Hydrogen-Rich water.
3. If convenient, and for best results, top off the bottle after drinking any quantity to minimize the air gap. This is not required but will increase the amount of hydrogen you receive. Remember to shake after filling and before drinking UNLESS your bottle is not full, then skip shaking before drinking.

Dr. Hayashi recommends one stick for those younger than 35, two sticks for those older than 35 and three sticks for those worried about their health.

Hydrogen Stick Performance:

One Stick - Outperforms ionizer machines.
Two Sticks - Provides dietary hydrogen as though eating a raw food diet.
Three Sticks - Disease Remediation. Maximum hydrogen water can hold.

The stick must remain in the water bottle at all times to produce hydrogen-rich water. You cannot pour off the water from a container with the stick as the hydrogen will quickly escape.

We recommend shaking the stick to release gas from inside that may be preventing water from entering and continuing the gas production reaction. If the stick fills up with gas, but due to the surface tension of certain waters does not escape the inside of the stick the reaction cannot continue. It is best then to always shake your bottle. 

Stick Maintenance

The effectiveness of the stick will deteriorate sooner than its six-month lifespan if it is not cleaned periodically. About once a month the stick should be submerged in a bath of 1 part distilled white vinegar and 4 parts water. Allow the stick to soak for about 30-minutes and confirm the existence of bubbles on the stick (hydrogen gas). Remove the stick and rinse thoroughly under running water. Return to use.

Air-drying the stick or removing it from service frequently can reduce its six-month lifespan due to increased oxidation. Sticks used in this manner (business travelers for instance) may need to be cleaned more often. 

Safety

Certain waters may cause the stick to produce more hydrogen than expected which could, under the right conditions, cause a bottle to crack or leak. Use your best judgement at all times and watch your stick attentively when using it with a new water for the first time.

The instructions included with the stick recommend a plastic bottle with a loose cap. Disregard this recommendation. We have thousands of happy customers using both metal and glass bottles without a single failure. Keep your cap on tight and enjoy the addition of hydrogen to your diet. 

Verification of Performance
New sticks always produce more hydrogen than water can hold in a dissolved state and thus exhibit bubbles. After a couple of weeks when the hydrogen producing reaction has stabilized, you will no longer see bubbles- this is completely normal. All the hydrogen is being held in a dissolved state within the water.

Once this hydrogen producing reaction has stabilized, a common candle provides a good analogy for hydrogen stick performance. A lit candle produces a steady amount of light for a period of time. In laboratory tests, 95% of all sticks produce ample amounts of hydrogen for six months while 80% burn out in the seventh month. Therefore, it is important to mark your calendar with a replacement date.

Another more important confirmation of the generation of hydrogen gas is the improvement to abnormal gastrointestinal fermentation from one to two weeks after starting to use the Hydrogen Stick. There will be such changes as better bowel movements and reduced stool smell.

Many waters have a high capacity to hold dissolved hydrogen and will not exhibit any bubbles at all- even with new sticks. Do not worry, there is nothing to malfunction with the stick. It is merely composed of mineral and ceramic stones. If these stones are in contact with water, they will produce hydrogen gas.

The easiest method by far is taste. Hydrogen-Rich Water feels smooth and silky in the mouth.

Yes. All ionizers use a variety of metals and alloys to reduce corrosion due to the electrolysis process which heavily degrades the electrodes. All electric ionizers leach anything that might be in the metal and the metal itself into the water, it is unavoidable.

The Hydrogen Stick does not use electrolysis. It uses only 99.9% pure magnesium. Magnesium is something we can all use more of and the magnesium that makes its way into the water only makes it more healthful and contributes to a stable pH.

Terms & Conditions
Dr. Hayashi's Hydrogen-Rich Water Stick is a very simple device that cannot malfunction and who's performance can be measured objectively with scientific instruments. Because it is also disposable and not resalable, we only accept returns within 30-days of purchase if unopened and unused.

Yes, but not enough to skip purifying your tap water by other means.

Far-infrared ceramics within the stick reduce bacterial content and neutralize certain organic contaminates as does the reduction potential (negative ORP).

THE STICK IS NOT MEANT TO USE WITH WATER THAT IS UNSAFE FOR DRINKING.
 

Megahydrate uses silica hydride capsules taken orally to create a hydrogen derived anti oxidant effect in the body. The Hydrogen Stick uses a natural reaction between water and magnesium to generate hydrogen within the water to create the same effect.

Megahydrate cost $39.95 + $6.95 S&H for a 30-day supply. The Hydrogen Stick is $79.95 + Free Shipping for a 6-month supply.

While Megahydrate claims to have a higher anti-oxidant power in the dose, it falls short of real-life usage, for one is still drinking oxidizing water all day long. The Hydrogen Stick converts all one’s water consumed throughout the day to anti-oxidant water.

Even if one wanted even more anti-oxidant power, two sticks can be used simultaneously at what is still a much better value than Megahydrate.

No, it is better. Dr. Hayashi's research has shown that hydrogen is more important than pH or Oxidation Reduction Potential. Because ionizing machines produce water so slowly, most of the hydrogen has escaped by the time enough has been made to drink. You would also need to drink as quickly as possible, seconds to minutes, as the remaining hydrogen escapes from the water so rapidly.

Only by producing hydrogen constantly can the Hydrogen Stick provide you with hydrogen-rich water. If you were to pour off the water into a glass and wait a few minutes the hydrogen would be gone. We can measure this with instruments. This is why we recommend you put the stick in a personal water bottle and drink directly from it.

Dr. Hayashi is the man who made water ionizing machines so popular back in the '80s. Continuing his research, he determined hydrogen is the most important factor when it comes to health-enhancing water.

The stick is composed of magnesium and far-infrared ceramics housed in a porous resin.  A reaction between the magnesium and the water in the presence of far-infrared rays causes the production of hydrogen.

Four Treatment Steps to Ensure the Safety of your HYDROGEN RICH WATER!

Step 1 - Source water enters through micro-porous holes on the hydrogen producing mineral stick and makes contact with magnesium and far infared energy emitting bio-ceramic bio-energetic minerals and natural electrolysis-water splitting and/or molecular dissociation occurs where active hydrogen is activated and becomes dominate over oxidation; therefore any dirt, debris, sediment, particulates and turbidity etc. TDS is reduced, clarified and scavenged by active hydrogen.

Step 2 - The water remaining in the bottle is thus saturated with active hydrogen and far infared energy emitting bio-ceramics bio-energetic minerals and; thus (-ORP) Oxidation Reduction Potential is within an optimal negative (sanitizing) range to begin the oxidation process of microorganisms. Active hydrogen reduces bad odors and improves the flavor of drinking water.

Step 3 - The water is continuously exposed to low radiating far infared energy emitting bio-ceramic bio-energetic light which is highly effective in destroying and inactivating a wide range of bacteria, more resistant viruses, parasitic cysts.

Step 4 - The combination of Active Hydrogen and Far Infared Energy Emitting Bio-Ceramic Bio-Energetic an instant reaction known as photo or advanced oxidation. This creates a hydroxyl radical speeding up the oxidation process by up to 1,000 times. Most importantly, no chemical additives are used during the entire process. Harmful contaminants are destroyed and removed but beneficial minerals remain in the water for superior flavor and your good health.

For best results, what container should be used?
The Hydrogen Stick works best in a personal sized water container no larger than 1.5L with an air-tight lid. Using a larger container would reduce the hydrogen concentration in the water and limit the benefits.

Can I use the Hydrogen Stick in a water-cooler bottle (5 gal. or 3 gal.) or pitcher that the whole family can use?
Using any container larger than 1.5L will limit the hydrogen concentration and resulting benefits. Of course, you can always use multiple sticks with larger containers or for added boost in smaller containers. However, an open pitcher or water cooler jug will prevent you from being able to shake the stick/bottle before drinking. Additionally, water cooler bottles have an ever larger air gap between the top of the bottle and the water allowing the hydrogen to escape.

Yes. The Hydrogen Stick will make water more alkaline, usually anywhere from .5 to 1.5 pH points. We cannot tell you exactly what the pH of your water will be after using the stick because we do not know what the pH of your water is now or what kind of mineral content your water has. Both factors will effect the resulting pH.

Remember that Dr. Hayashi's studies have shown that hydrogen content in your drinking water is more important than its pH, or ORP (Oxidation Reduction Potential). Persons consuming hydrogen-rich water will tend to be less acid prone than those consuming other waters.

Dr. Hayashi recommends replacing your Hydrogen Stick every six months for optimal benefits.

The six-month life span is based on continuous usage producing Hydrogen Rich Water.

There are five things that can ruin a Hydrogen Water Stick:

    * Using the Hydrogen Water Stick with anything but water or dirty water.
    * Using the Hydrogen Water Stick with hot water.
    * Not cleaning the stick.
    * Letting the stick dry out.
    * Microwaves - never ever

Unlike bottled water, water treated by the Hydrogen Producing Mineral Stick produces fresh and on demand as you need it, instantly, not days, weeks, or even months before. You can enjoy unlimited amounts of clean, fresh tasting hydrogen rich water at a fraction of the cost of bottled water without having to wait for delivery, lift and store heavy containers, or worry about contamination.

Based upon average usage, the HYDROGEN PRODUCING MINERAL STICK pays for itself compared to buying bottled water within one year and makes water for just pennies per gallon.

Carbon filters may trap some microorganisms but they do not destroy them. Water borne virus pass right through carbon filters. Activated carbon provides an excellent breeding ground for microorganisms which can elevate the levels of bacteria found in normal tap water.

The Hydrogen Producing Mineral Stick uses a natural filteration systems to remove dead bacteria, heavy metals, organic and inorganic compounds. Active hydrogen is created continiously and activated, which continually works to oxidize any contaminants trapped in the Stick. It is capable of disactivating contaminants within 300 gallons of water (6 months of household use) and reduces parasitic cysts such as Cryptosporidium and Giardia.

The Hydrogen.Producing Mineral Technology is different from all others. Since the far infared energy emitting bio-cermanics is contantly and instantly activated the water, the water remains energized inside the bottle. You don't need to empty the system before getting a glass of cool water.

Compared to reverse osmosis, the The Hydrogen Producing Mineral Stick is much smaller and more compact, does not require a storage tank, is virtually maintenance free up to 6 months, and does not waste a drop of water. Reverse osmosis requires a lot of pressure, a lot of time, and a lot of maintenance which generally limits production to a few gallons per day. The Hydrogen Producing Mineral Stick is extremely less expensive to purchase than almost all reverse osmosis equipment. It only costs $79.95 per stick.

The Hydrogen Producing Mineral Stick does not use electricity just like distillation units to process water. However, distillation and electrolysis units requires approximately 100,000,000,000,000 times the amount of energy as the Hydrogen Producing Mineral Stick to make the same gallon of water. The purchase price of distillation and electrolyzing equipment and maintenance requirements can be 1,000,000,000 as much as the Hydrogen Producing Mineral Stick Technology.
