01 | OVERVIEW

HydrogenizedWaterGoesGlobal


No.1sellingHydrogenizedWater in Japansince2008*

Using cutting-edge Japanese manufacturing technologies that made the product a reality and the continual demand since its introduction, IZUMIO has steadfastly held the position of the No.1 selling hydrogenized water in Japan since 2008.

It’s specially designed as an anti-aging beverage based on the concept of antioxidation and it helps to slow the aging process by suppressing oxidative activity. Izumio is extremely popular in every market entered to date.

01 | OVERVIEW


Reputed“MiracleWaters”TriggeredtheHydrogenizedWaterResearchBoom

The reports of health benefits from mineral water date back to the mid-1800s. This is where inexplicable healing attributes for the “miracle water” from the Fountaine of Lourdes, a spring near the village of Lourdes, France, were noted in literature by clergymen.

Currently, tens of thousands of people make annual pilgrimages to locations such as the Fountaine of Lourdes, the wells of Tlacote, Mexico and the Wunderwasser of the Nordenau Caverns in Germany for the purpose of drinking and bathing in the miracle waters. Why? They believe the waters have special healing powers with miraculous properties capable of improving health.

Studies of the waters flowing from these and other renowned locations have revealed a most interesting commonality. It appears that the hydrogen content contained in the water is higher than usual. Intrigued by these people and their stories, a research boom on hydrogen broke out in Japan, and today the country leads the world in research on hydrogenized water.

Hydrogen—theidealantioxidant

There will never be a medicine developed that is capable of stopping the body from aging, a process resulting from oxidation. However, our bodies are presently being subjected to various kinds of extrinsic factors like air pollution and physiological stress. These additional loads can expedite the rusting process, thereby leading to premature aging and trigger the onset of many diseases.

According to the traditional oriental science, it’s important to carry out protective measures on a daily basis.While the aging process cannot be stopped, it can be slowed down using a naturally high reduction activity of an ideal antioxidant like hydrogen.

IZUMIO, high in hydrogen content, is a refreshing hydrogenized drink specially designed for those who wish to maintain their youth and health for years to come.

Having the highest hydrogen redox potential available, IZUMIO is now the No.1* selling hydrogenized water in Japan.

Industry-leadingHydrogenContent

6specialreasonswhyIZUMIO

IZUMIO is a specially designed Japanese anti-aging beverage carefully conceived and produced by scientific artisans. It is a masterpiece in itself, prepared infusing the traditions of “monotsukuri” (i.e., craftsmanship) and “wa” (i.e., harmony). Ingested, the ingredients work harmoniously with the body to suppress oxidative activity, thereby slowing the aging process and contributing to overall wellbeing.
