The invention relates to the use of heat and/or acids to increase the water activating property of various substances, including humic acids and zeolites. The basic theme is that, whenever possible, water being consumed by humans and animals, or being used in agriculture, should be pre-activated using one or other of the available methods. Humic acids and zeolites have been shown to have water-activating activities. Pre-heating these materials to temperatures in the range of 1,000° C., significantly increases this water-activating activity. Lesser increases in water activation are achievable using 200° C. heat and/or exposure to low pH using acids. Other fluids, including alcoholic beverages, can similarly be more efficiently activated using heated versus unheated humic acids and/or zeolites. This discovery will help facilitate the utilization of activated water in various fields, including human and animal consumption, agriculture and industry. |
