From Wikipedia
A water ionizer (also known as an alkaline ionizer) is a home appliance which claims to raise the pH of drinking water by using electrolysis to separate the incoming water stream into acidic and alkaline components. The treated water is called alkaline water. Proponents claim that consumption of alkaline water results in a variety of health benefits, making it similar to the alternative health practice of alkaline diets. Such claims violate principles of chemistry and physiology. There is no medical evidence for any health benefits of alkaline water. Extensive scientific evidence has debunked these claims, leaving such claims in the pseudoscientific realm. The machines originally became popular in Japan and other East Asian nations before becoming available in the US and Europe.
