PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an alkali ion water generator capable of generating alkali ion water which is expected to have medical effect of hydrogen by daily drinking the water of≤1 liter and contains≥1 mg/L high-concentration dissolved hydrogen, and the pH of which is >7 to 10. SOLUTION: This alkali ion water generator is composed of: a filtration unit 2 for housing an activated carbon block 3 obtained by molding activated carbon powder into a hollow columnar shape by using a polymeric material such as polyethylene as a binder; an electrolytic chamber 9 having a pair of electrodes 13, 14 arranged across an ion-permeable diaphragm 12; and a cathode chamber 10 in the electrolytic chamber 9. Hydrogen gas obtained by electrolyzing the water stored in the electrolytic chamber by DC voltage to be impressed from a power supply unit 17, which is arranged at the preceding or succeeding stage of the electrolytic chamber 9 and connected to the electrolytic chamber 9, is stored in the filtration unit 2 when water is not made to pass through this alkali ion water generator. When water is made to pass through this alkali ion water generator, the alkali ion water having the pH of > 7 to≤10 is generated in the electrolytic chamber 9 and the hydrogen gas is diffused/dissolved as a minute bubble 5 through severalμm pores of the activated carbon block 3.
