ORP (Oxidation-Reduction Potential)

“Indicator of antioxidant power”

👉 What is ORP?

ORP, or Oxidation-Reduction Potential, is a measure of a liquid’s ability to either oxidize (cause damage by taking electrons) or reduce (protect by giving electrons).
Measured in millivolts (mV).
Positive ORP (+200 to +600 mV): Indicates oxidizing properties, often linked to free radical activity and cellular stress.
Negative ORP (0 to –400 mV): Indicates antioxidant properties, meaning the water can neutralize free radicals.

👉 How Does ORP Work?

Oxidation: When molecules lose electrons, they become unstable, leading to oxidative stress in the body.
Reduction: When molecules gain electrons, they stabilize and can act as antioxidants.
Water with a negative ORP provides extra electrons that neutralize harmful free radicals, protecting cells and DNA from oxidative damage.

ROLE & IMPORTANCE FOR HEALTH

Acts as an indicator of water’s antioxidant capacity.
Negative ORP water helps fight oxidative stress.
Supports slower aging, stronger immunity, and better cellular repair.
Used in health science to measure the “protective potential” of water.

KEY FEATURES / ADVANTAGES

Scientifically measurable in millivolts.
Negative ORP water acts as a natural antioxidant.
Supports DNA protection and cell longevity.
Enhances the body’s defense against free radicals.

LIMITATIONS

⚠️ ORP only indicates antioxidant potential, not overall water purity.
⚠️ Very high negative ORP values may not be stable for long periods.
⚠️ ORP needs to be considered along with pH and mineral balance for true water quality.

SCIENTIFIC SUMMARY

ORP is the Oxidation-Reduction Potential of water, measured in millivolts (mV). It reflects whether water is oxidizing (positive ORP, harmful) or reducing (negative ORP, beneficial). Water with negative ORP acts as an antioxidant, neutralizing free radicals and supporting long-term health at the cellular level.
