そして、本発明者は、その出願に係る特願平１０−１５３７６８号において通常大気環境下で平衡にある水のＯＲＰ−ｐＨ関係が、図１の破線で示す（３）式の関係（平衡ＯＲＰ）で表されることを始めて明らかにした。
【０００６】
【化２】

【０００７】
このことにより、破線より上の領域は酸化系、下の領域は還元系、破線上は平衡系を示すことが明確となり、各種水の評価が可能となった。そこで、発明者はこの関係を用いることで温泉水および皮膚のａｇｉｎｇ（老化）評価が可能であることを前記特願平１０−１５３７６８号において明らかにしてきた。すなわち、温泉源泉ではｐＨが約１付近の強酸性から１０以上の強アルカリ性まで広く分布しているが、いずれの温泉源泉も湧出直後のＯＲＰは通常の大気環境と平衡にある図１の破線（（３）式）より低い還元系にあり、時間の経過にともない酸化されて平衡ＯＲＰに近づく結果を得ている。
【０００８】
更に、皮膚は弱酸性であることは既に知られているが、図１に示すように皮膚も平衡ＯＲＰより低い還元系にあるということも前記特願平１０−１５３７６８号において明らかにした。すなわち、図１はいずれの健常者（図中、◯印で示す）の皮膚のＯＲＰとｐＨの関係が、ｐＨでは約４以上７以下にあり、一方ＯＲＰはいずれも破線で示す平衡ＯＲＰより低く、ＯＲＰ＝０．８４−０．０４７ｐＨとＯＲＰ＝−０．０５９ｐＨに囲まれた範囲に存在することを示している。すなわち、図１の結果は皮膚は弱酸性であると同時に、還元系であることを表している。
【０００９】
図２は、平衡ＯＲＰと皮膚のＯＲＰとの差をエージング指標ＡＩ（Ａｇｉｎｇ Ｉｎｄｅｘ）として定義し、それら皮膚のＡＩ指標と加齢との関係を示したものであり、ＡＩ指標は加齢にともないそれらの値は小さくなり、皮膚が酸化されて平衡系（ＡＩ＝０）に近づくということも、前記特願平１０−１５３７６８号において明らかにした。図２から明らかなように、●印で示す各測定者の年齢が進むにつれてＡＩ値は小さくなり、皮膚の老化は加齢と共に平衡ＯＲＰに近づき、皮膚のエージングが進んでいることを示している。また、前記ＡＩ指標により皮膚だけでなく、先に述べた温泉水も同様にａｇｉｎｇ評価ができることを特願平１０−１５３７６８号において明らかにした。
【００１０】
更に本発明者は、我々生体に関係する水についてもＯＲＰ−ｐＨ関係を測定した。図３に、生体水として血液の血漿、血液から腎臓で濾過されて生成される尿、および唾液についての測定結果を示す。図３から明らかなように、これら生体に関係する水は弱酸性から弱アルカリ性にｐＨは分布し、一方ＯＲＰは平衡ＯＲＰより低い還元系であることが判った。また、これまでに測定されている内臓系（胃、十二指腸、空腸、回腸、盲腸および直腸）のｐＨおよびＯＲＰについても、図３に合わせて示すとｐＨでは強酸性の胃を除くと、弱酸性から弱アルカリ性、ＯＲＰはいずれも平衡ＯＲＰより低い還元系であった。それ故、生体に関わる水、すなわち生体水は、強酸性の特殊な胃を除いて皮膚も含めて考察すると、ｐＨは４以上８未満の範囲で、且つＯＲＰはＯＲＰ＝０．８４−０．０４７ｐＨ未満よりＯＲＰ＝−０．０５９ｐＨ以上のＯＲＰ範囲（２５℃基準）の還元性を有するものであると定義することができる。その結果、前記範囲内にある水は生体水に類似する水であるということができる。
【００１１】
図４に、魚介類、牛乳および肉類についての測定結果を示す。図４から明らかなように、ｐＨは弱酸性から弱アルカリ性、ＯＲＰはすべて還元系を示している。これら魚介類、牛乳および肉類も、本発明者が定義した生体水の範囲にＯＲＰおよびｐＨが納まる結果を示した。
【００１２】
更に図５に、野菜および果実類についての測定結果を示す。図５から明らかなように、ｐＨは野菜では弱酸性であるが、果実は野菜に比べて酸性が強い傾向にあった。しかし、いずれもＯＲＰは還元系を示した。
【００１３】
前記生体水と我々が日常摂取する水道水、市販ミネラル水、清涼飲料水、野菜、果物、魚介類、牛乳、肉類等を含めて、図６にそれらのＯＲＰ−ｐＨ関係の模式図を示した。水道水は、ｐＨは中性付近であるが、ＯＲＰは残留塩素のため平衡ＯＲＰより高い酸化系となっており、浄水器等で活性炭による脱塩素することにより、天然水の市販ミネラル水と同じ平衡ＯＲＰになる。それ故、水道水、市販ミネラル水は生体の還元系とは異なる。
【００１４】
一方、人工的に加工した清涼飲料水では、酸化防止を兼ねたアスコルビン酸等が加えられていることから、ＯＲＰは還元系であるが、ｐＨは３付近の強酸性を示した。しかし、緑茶、ウーロン茶や紅茶等の市販茶系飲料水では、弱酸性で還元系、更に牛乳では中性で還元系を示し、これらはいずれも図中灰色で示す生体水の領域に含まれる結果が得られた。
【００１５】
また、野菜、果物では、ｐＨは一部強酸性のものがあるが、多くは中性から酸性付近に分布し、ＯＲＰはすべて平衡ＯＲＰより低い還元系であった。それ故、野菜および一部強酸性を除いた果実類も前記生体水の領域内にあることが判る。
【００１６】
以上の結果を総合すると、本発明者が定義した生体水に類似するよう飲料水、食品の製造等に使用する水、あるいは浴用水、シャワー水、化粧用の水、更にはボディーケア用の水等に使用する水を製造し、その水を使用することにより、生体に刺激が少なく優しいだけでなく、皮膚および食品等の酸化を防止し、皮膚では老化を抑制することが期待可能となる。それ故、生体水に類似した水は、我々が日常接触または摂取する水として大変有効な水と考えられるという観点から、本発明は生体水に類似する水の製造法を提供することを課題とする。
【００１７】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明は、無隔膜の電解装置に通水して両電極近傍で生成された陽極水と陰極水とが混合状態のままの電解水を、活性炭や活性炭繊維あるいは無機系還元物質、有機系還元物質、植物および生薬系還元物質または還元性気体のいずれかの還元性物質に接触させることにより、前記陽極側近傍で生成された陽極水中のＯＲＰの高い活性塩素および活性酸素が除去されて、前記陽極水中のＯＲＰを下げる一方、該陽極水と、前記活性炭や活性炭繊維あるいは還元性物質に接触させてもＯＲＰの変化が起こらない前記陰極側近傍で生成されたＯＲＰの低い陰極水が混合されることで、ＯＲＰ（標準水素電極基準の酸化還元電位で、単位はＶ）が、通常大気環境下で平衡となる２５℃基準で、ＯＲＰ＝０．８４−０．０４７ｐＨ未満よりＯＲＰ＝−０．０５９ｐＨ以上のＯＲＰ範囲の還元性を有し、且つｐＨが４〜８の範囲となるよう、酸またはアルカリ物質、電解質またはミネラルを溶出する岩石や鉱物、イオン交換樹脂および二酸化炭素ガスの単独または２つ以上の組合わせを用いることで調整するという方法を採用することにより、上記課題を解決した。
【００１８】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明は、無隔膜の電解装置に通水して両電極近傍で生成された陽極水と陰極水とが混合状態のままの電解水を、活性炭や活性炭繊維あるいは無機系還元物質、有機系還元物質、植物および生薬系還元物質または還元性気体のいずれかの還元性物質に接触させることにより、前記陽極側近傍で生成された陽極水中のＯＲＰの高い活性塩素および活性酸素が除去されて、前記陽極水中のＯＲＰを下げる一方、該陽極水と、前記活性炭や活性炭繊維あるいは還元性物質に接触させてもＯＲＰの変化が起こらない前記陰極側近傍で生成されたＯＲＰの低い陰極水が混合されることで、ＯＲＰ（標準水素電極基準の酸化還元電位で、単位はＶ）が、通常大気環境下で平衡となる２５℃基準で、ＯＲＰ＝０．８４−０．０４７ｐＨ未満よりＯＲＰ＝−０．０５９ｐＨ以上のＯＲＰ範囲の還元性を有し、且つｐＨが４〜８の範囲となるよう、酸またはアルカリ物質、電解質またはミネラルを溶出する岩石や鉱物、イオン交換樹脂および二酸化炭素ガスの単独または２つ以上の組合わせを用いることで調整して生体水に類似する水とする製造法に関するものであるが、以下更に詳細に説明する。
【００１９】
本発明は、無隔膜の電解装置に通水して、両電極近傍で生成された陽極水と陰極水とが混合状態のままの電解水を、活性炭や活性炭繊維あるいは還元性物質と接触させて活性塩素および活性酸素を除去することで、生体水に類似した水を製造するものである。すなわち、電解の際、陽極側近傍ではＯＲＰの高い活性塩素および活性酸素が生成されるが、活性炭や活性炭繊維あるいは還元性物質に接触させることで、陽極側近傍で生成される水のＯＲＰを平衡ＯＲＰまで下げることができる。一方、陰極側近傍で生成された水素はＯＲＰを低くするが、活性炭や活性炭繊維あるいは還元性物質に接触させてもＯＲＰの変化は起こらない。従って、前記両極で生成され、且つ前記特性を有する水が混合された場合、ＯＲＰが平衡ＯＲＰより低い還元性の水を得ることができるのである。
【００２０】
そして、本発明者は種々実験の結果、前記ＯＲＰを下げる還元性物質としては、亜硫酸塩、亜硫酸水素塩、ピロ亜硫酸塩等の無機系還元物質、アスコルビン酸、アスコルビン酸ナトリウム等の有機系還元物質、カテキン類、ポリフェノール類、フラボノイド類、リコベン、アントシアニン、キサントフィル等の各種植物および生薬系還元物質、更には水素等の還元性気体が採用できることが判った。
【００２１】
前記各方法により製造された還元系の水のｐＨ調整には、酸またはアルカリ物質、電解質またはミネラルを溶出する岩石や鉱物、イオン交換樹脂、更には二酸化炭素ガスの単独または２つ以上の組み合わせを用いることで前記還元系の水のｐＨを４〜８に調整を行い、本発明生体水に類似した水を製造することができる。特に、二酸化炭素ガスを用いる場合、皮膚の血流量の増加が期待できる６０ｐｐｍ以上の濃度、好ましくは温泉法で炭酸泉として定義されている２５０ｐｐｍ以上の濃度、更に好ましくは療養泉として定義されている１０００ｐｐｍ以上の濃度で溶解させることにより、弱酸性から弱アルカリ性で、且つ還元系の天然炭酸泉に類似した水となる。
【００２２】
本発明による生体水に類似した水は、飲料水や食品関連の水として応用するだけではなく、シャワー装置または温水循環器、あるいはそれらの両方または一方を備えた浴槽および洗面台等の水に応用することで、皮膚の酸化防止や皮膚の老化抑制に有効性が期待できる。

【実施例】
電解槽の隔膜を除去した無隔膜電解槽の出口側に活性炭ろ過槽を連結した。この無隔膜電解槽に水道水を通し、両電極近傍で生成される陽極水と陰極水を混合状態で電解した結果の一例を図７に示した。弱アルカリ性で残留塩素により平衡ＯＲＰより高い酸化系の水道水は、無隔膜電解により、弱アルカリ性から中性の還元系の生体水に類似した電解水となった。水道水によっては、図７に示すように、この電解水のｐＨの調整をすることで、図中灰色で示す領域内にある生体水に類似した水が製造できる。ｐＨの調整法としては、例えばコハク酸等の酸性物質による方法、弱塩基性陰イオン交換樹脂で水中のＯＨイオンをＳＯ_４やＣｌイオン等と交換させる方法、二酸化炭素ガスを溶解させる方法等がある。そして、流量、電解強度、水道水中に添加する電解質濃度、更にはｐＨ調整方法を変えることで、ｐＨおよびＯＲＰを自由に変化させた生体水に類似した水の製造が可能となった。また、上記電解槽に温水を用いる場合は、浴槽水およびシャワー水としても使用可能で、浴槽の場合温度をコントロールする加熱器を電解層と組み合せてもよく、皮膚の酸化防止および老化抑制が期待できる生体水に類似した水による入浴が可能となる。特に、二酸化炭素ガスを用いる場合、皮膚の血流量の増加が期待できる６０ｐｐｍ以上の濃度、好ましくは温泉法で炭酸泉として定義されている２５０ｐｐｍ以上の濃度、更に好ましくは療養泉として定義されている１０００ｐｐｍ以上の濃度で溶解させることにより、弱酸性から弱アルカリ性で、且つ還元系の天然炭酸泉に類似した水となる。

本発明は上述のようであるから、本発明製造法によって得られた生体水に類似する水は、比較的簡単に製造することができると共に、本発明製造法によって得られた生体水に類似した水を飲料水や食品関連の水として応用することにより、生体に刺激が少ない優しい水となり、更に、シャワー水や浴用水を生成するシャワー装置または温水循環器、あるいはそれらの両方または一方を備えた浴槽および洗面台等の水に応用すると共に、化粧用水やボディーケア用の水として使用することで、皮膚の酸化防止や老化抑制を期待できる水となる。また、二酸化炭素ガスを使用する場合、弱酸性から弱アルカリ性の範囲で、且つ還元系の天然炭酸泉に類似した水ができるので、一般家庭で天然炭酸泉と同様の効能を有する浴槽水とすることができる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a biological water which is used for the production of drinking water and foods, or the water used for bath water, shower water, cosmetic water, body care water, etc. is close to biological water. It is related with the manufacturing method of water similar to.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Water related to animals, plants and seafood, including human beings, has been partially measured in terms of pH value, but the ORP (standard hydrogen electrode standard oxidation-reduction potential, unit is V) value has hardly been measured. It was. Even if they were measured, the meaning of these values was not clear. Therefore, even when biological water has been studied, the main interest is mainly on dissolved components, and biological water from the viewpoint of a completely new ORP-pH has never been predicted or studied.
[0003]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION AND PROBLEMS TO BE SOLVED
Water that is normally in an atmospheric environment exists in the upper and lower solid line ranges shown in FIG. 1 in an ORP-pH relationship (25 ° C. reference). That is, the upper and lower solid lines in FIG. 1 indicate boundaries where water undergoes oxidative decomposition (formula (1)) and reductive decomposition (formula (2)), respectively.
[0004]
[Chemical 1]

[0005]
Then, the present inventor has found that the ORP-pH relationship of water in equilibrium under normal atmospheric environment in Japanese Patent Application No. 10-153768 related to the application is the relationship (equilibrium ORP) expressed by the broken line in FIG. ) For the first time.
[0006]
[Chemical 2]

[0007]
As a result, it became clear that the region above the broken line shows the oxidation system, the lower region shows the reduction system, and the broken line shows the equilibrium system, and various waters can be evaluated. Therefore, the inventor has clarified in Japanese Patent Application No. 10-153768 that the evaluation of hot spring water and skin aging is possible by using this relationship. In other words, the hot spring source is widely distributed from a strong acidity of about 1 to a strong alkalinity of 10 or more, but the ORP immediately after the spring of each hot spring source is in equilibrium with the normal atmospheric environment (dotted line in FIG. 1). (3) It is in a lower reduction system than formula (3), and it is oxidized with the passage of time to obtain a result that approaches the equilibrium ORP.
[0008]
Furthermore, although it is already known that the skin is weakly acidic, it has also been clarified in Japanese Patent Application No. 10-153768 that the skin is in a reducing system lower than the equilibrium ORP as shown in FIG. That is, FIG. 1 shows that the relationship between the ORP of the skin of any healthy person (indicated by a circle in the figure) and the pH is about 4 or more and 7 or less in pH, while the ORP is lower than the equilibrium ORP indicated by the broken line. , ORP = 0.8 4 -0.047pH and ORP = - indicates the presence in the range surrounded in 0.0 59 pH. That is, the result of FIG. 1 represents that the skin is weakly acidic and at the same time is a reducing system.
[0009]
FIG. 2 defines the difference between the equilibrium ORP and the skin ORP as an aging index AI (Aging Index), and shows the relationship between the AI index of the skin and aging. The AI index is associated with aging. It has also been clarified in the aforementioned Japanese Patent Application No. 10-153768 that these values become smaller and the skin is oxidized and approaches an equilibrium system (AI = 0). As is clear from FIG. 2, the AI value decreases as the age of each measurer indicated by the mark ●, and skin aging approaches the equilibrium ORP with aging, indicating that skin aging is progressing. . Further, it has been clarified in Japanese Patent Application No. 10-153768 that not only the skin but also the above-mentioned hot spring water can be similarly evaluated by the AI index.
[0010]
Furthermore, the present inventor measured the ORP-pH relationship for water related to our living body. FIG. 3 shows the measurement results for blood plasma as biological water, urine produced by filtering blood from the kidney, and saliva. As is clear from FIG. 3, it was found that the pH of the water related to these living bodies is distributed from weakly acidic to weakly alkaline, while ORP is a reducing system lower than the equilibrium ORP. In addition, the pH and ORP of the visceral system (stomach, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, cecum, and rectum) that have been measured so far are also weakly acidic except when the strongly acidic stomach is removed. From these results, the weak alkaline and ORP were all reduced systems lower than the equilibrium ORP. Therefore, when the water related to the living body, that is, the living body water is considered including the skin except for the strongly acidic special stomach, the pH is in the range of 4 or more and less than 8, and the ORP is ORP = 0.84-0. It can be defined as having reducibility in the ORP range (on the basis of 25 ° C.) of less than 047 pH and ORP = −0.059 pH or more. As a result, it can be said that the water in the said range is water similar to biological water.
[0011]
In FIG. 4, the measurement result about seafood, milk, and meat is shown. As is apparent from FIG. 4, pH is weakly acidic to weakly alkaline, and ORP indicates a reducing system. These seafood, milk, and meat also showed the results that the ORP and pH were within the range of biological water defined by the present inventors.
[0012]
Furthermore, the measurement result about vegetables and fruits is shown in FIG. As is clear from FIG. 5, the pH is slightly acidic in vegetables, but the fruits tend to be more acidic than vegetables. However, in both cases, ORP showed a reducing system.
[0013]
FIG. 6 shows a schematic diagram of the ORP-pH relationship including the biological water and tap water, daily mineral water, soft drinks, vegetables, fruits, seafood, milk, meat, etc. . Although tap water has a pH near neutrality, ORP has a higher oxidation system than equilibrium ORP due to residual chlorine. By dechlorinating with activated carbon in a water purifier, etc., it is the same as commercial mineral water in natural water. It becomes equilibrium ORP. Therefore, tap water and commercial mineral water are different from the biological reduction system.
[0014]
On the other hand, in artificially processed soft drinks, ascorbic acid and the like that also serve to prevent oxidation are added, ORP is a reducing system, but the pH showed strong acidity around 3. However, commercial tea drinks such as green tea, oolong tea and black tea are weakly acidic and reduced, and milk is neutral and reduced, all of which are included in the area of biological water shown in gray in the figure. was gotten.
[0015]
Moreover, some vegetables and fruits have strong acidic pH, but most of them are distributed from neutral to acidic, and ORPs are all reducing systems lower than equilibrium ORPs. Therefore, it can be seen that fruits excluding vegetables and some strong acids are also in the region of the biological water.
[0016]
Summarizing the above results, drinking water, water used for food production, etc., bath water, shower water, cosmetic water, and body care water to resemble the biological water defined by the present inventor. It is expected that the use of water for use in, etc. not only causes less irritation to the living body and is gentle, but also prevents the skin and food from being oxidized and suppresses aging in the skin. Therefore, the present invention aims to provide a method for producing water similar to biological water from the viewpoint that water similar to biological water is considered to be very effective as water that is contacted or consumed daily. To do.
[0017]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In the present invention, electrolyzed water in which the anode water and cathode water generated in the vicinity of both electrodes through the electrolysis apparatus with no separation membrane are mixed , is activated carbon, activated carbon fiber, inorganic reducing substance, organic reduction material, the Rukoto into contact with either a reducing agent plants and herbal-based reducing agent or a reducing gas, ORP high active chlorine and active oxygen anode water produced in the anode side vicinity is eliminated, the one to lower the ORP of anode water, and said positive Gokumizu, the activated carbon or activated carbon fiber or a low ORP generated in the cathode side near the change in ORP does not occur even in contact with the reducing substance cathode water are mixed in Rukoto, ORP (oxide reduction potential of standard hydrogen electrode reference, the unit is V) have, at 25 ° C. criteria usually an equilibrium in the air environment, ORP = ORP from below 0.84-0.047pH = -0 A rock or mineral that elutes an acid or alkaline substance, an electrolyte or a mineral, an ion exchange resin, and carbon dioxide gas alone or 2 so as to have a reducing property in the ORP range of 059 pH or more and a pH in the range of 4-8. The above problem was solved by adopting a method of adjusting by using two or more combinations.
[0018]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
In the present invention, electrolyzed water in which the anode water and cathode water generated in the vicinity of both electrodes through the electrolysis apparatus with no separation membrane are mixed , is activated carbon, activated carbon fiber, inorganic reducing substance, organic reduction material, the Rukoto into contact with either a reducing agent plants and herbal-based reducing agent or a reducing gas, ORP high active chlorine and active oxygen anode water produced in the anode side vicinity is eliminated, the one to lower the ORP of anode water, and said positive Gokumizu, the activated carbon or activated carbon fiber or a low ORP generated in the cathode side near the change in ORP does not occur even in contact with the reducing substance cathode water are mixed in Rukoto, ORP (oxide reduction potential of standard hydrogen electrode reference, the unit is V) have, at 25 ° C. criteria usually an equilibrium in the air environment, ORP = ORP from below 0.84-0.047pH = -0 A rock or mineral that elutes an acid or alkaline substance, an electrolyte or a mineral, an ion exchange resin, and carbon dioxide gas alone or 2 so as to have a reducing property in the ORP range of 059 pH or more and a pH in the range of 4-8. This relates to a method for producing water that is similar to biological water by adjusting by using two or more combinations, and will be described in more detail below.
[0019]
In the present invention , water is passed through an electrolysis apparatus having no diaphragm, and the electrolyzed water in which the anodic water and the cathodic water generated in the vicinity of both electrodes remain in a mixed state is brought into contact with activated carbon, activated carbon fiber or a reducing substance. by removing active chlorine and active oxygen, it is intended to produce similar water BIOLOGICAL water. That is, when the electrolysis is higher active chlorine and active oxygen-ORP at the anode side vicinity is generated, is brought into contact with the activated carbon or activated carbon fiber or reducing substance, the ORP of the water produced on the anode side near equilibrium It can be lowered to ORP. On the other hand, hydrogen produced in the vicinity of the cathode side lowers the ORP, but the ORP does not change even when it is brought into contact with activated carbon, activated carbon fiber or a reducing substance. Therefore, the bipolar generated in, and if the water having the characteristic has been mixed, Ru Nodea capable ORP to obtain a low reducing water from the equilibrium ORP.
[0020]
As a result of various experiments, the present inventors have found that as reducing substances that lower the ORP, inorganic reducing substances such as sulfites, bisulfites and pyrosulfites, and organic reducing substances such as ascorbic acid and sodium ascorbate , catechins, polyphenols, flavonoids, Rikoben, anthocyanins, various plants and herbal-based reducing agent such as xanthophylls, further, found that can be adopted reducing gas such as hydrogen.
[002 1 ]

By using it, the pH of the reducing water can be adjusted to 4-8, and water similar to the biological water of the present invention can be produced. In particular, when carbon dioxide gas is used, a concentration of 60 ppm or more at which an increase in blood flow in the skin can be expected, preferably a concentration of 250 ppm or more defined as a carbonated spring in the hot spring method, and more preferably 1000 ppm defined as a therapeutic spring. By dissolving at the above concentration, the water becomes weakly acidic to weakly alkaline and similar to a natural carbonated spring of a reducing system.
[002 2 ]
The water similar to biological water according to the present invention is not only applied as drinking water or food-related water, but also applied to water such as a shower and / or a hot water circulator, or a bathtub and a washstand equipped with both or one of them.

An activated carbon filtration tank was connected to the outlet side of the non-diaphragm electrolytic tank from which the diaphragm of the electrolytic tank was removed. An example of the result of electrolysis in a mixed state of anode water and cathode water generated near both electrodes by passing tap water through this non-diaphragm electrolytic cell is shown in FIG. Oxidized tap water that is weakly alkaline and higher than the equilibrium ORP due to residual chlorine was converted into electrolyzed water that was similar to weakly alkaline to neutral reducing biological water by diaphragmless electrolysis. Depending on the tap water, as shown in FIG. 7, by adjusting the pH of the electrolyzed water, water similar to biological water in the region shown in gray in the figure can be produced. Examples of pH adjustment methods include a method using an acidic substance such as succinic acid, a method of exchanging OH ions in water with SO ₄ or Cl ions, etc. using a weakly basic anion exchange resin, and a method of dissolving carbon dioxide gas. is there. And by changing the flow rate, electrolytic strength, electrolyte concentration added to tap water, and further the pH adjustment method, it was possible to produce water similar to biological water in which pH and ORP were freely changed. In addition, when hot water is used in the electrolytic cell, it can also be used as bathtub water and shower water. In the case of a bathtub, a heater that controls the temperature may be combined with the electrolytic layer, which is expected to prevent skin oxidation and suppress aging. Bathing with water similar to biological water is possible. In particular, when carbon dioxide gas is used, a concentration of 60 ppm or more at which an increase in blood flow in the skin can be expected, preferably a concentration of 250 ppm or more defined as a carbonated spring in the hot spring method, and more preferably 1000 ppm defined as a therapeutic spring. By dissolving at the above concentration, the water becomes weakly acidic to weakly alkaline and similar to a natural carbonated spring of a reducing system.
