Alfred Hanser, the co-CEO of GIA Wellness, recently appeared on KHTS AM-1220 to discuss the company’s new ultra-hydrating “intelligent water” activation system, i-H2O.

GIA recently introduced the i-H2O Activation System as part of its mission to create an innovative generation of wellness products that address the newfound toxins and stressors people are constantly exposed to in today’s world.

“I’ve been in the health and wellness industry for over 20 years now, and it’s an incredibly rewarding field to be in because you can really change people’s lives with intelligent solutions,” Hanser said. “We’re in a time now where this is more needed than ever.”

Traditionally, water and soil pollution have prompted concern internationally as “commonly known” issues that need to be carefully and consistently monitored for public health reasons.

However, an entirely new, lesser known toxin has emerged as a result of today’s wireless world– one that is constantly affecting people’s health and wellness without their knowledge of its presence, according to Hanser.

“Now we have an invisible toxin that we’re all fighting, and that toxin is electromagnetic radiation,” Hanser said, “from cell phones, cordless phones, wireless routers and the towers, the infrastructure that powers it all– and some very interesting connections are starting to emerge from all of this.”

One of these connections is the role electromagnetic radiation has on the body’s ability to absorb water and stay hydrated.

While global water consumption is currently at an all-time high, 75 percent of the world’s population is considered chronically dehydrated, according to research by the World Health Organization.

Similarly, Hanser noted that the variety of nutritional supplements available has grown dramatically in recent years, and yet nutritional deficiency remains a growing problem in the healthcare industry.

Also garnering the attention of hydration experts is the growing prevalence of what’s known as Rapid Aging Syndrome– when the body’s cells behave as if they are much older than their actual biological age –despite the rapidly increasing use of anti-aging products.

“I’m not talking about third-world countries now– I’m talking in first-world, industrialized nations,” Hanser clarified. “So we’re looking at (this) and saying, okay, how is all of this connected?”

Studies show that electromagnetic radiation has a domino effect on the trillions of cells that make up the body, negatively impacting their communication with each other and ultimately affecting the body’s natural processes, from digestion to cognitive function to sleep patterns.

“It’s a manmade radiation that the cell in the body doesn’t understand,” Hanser explained. “So the body interprets that as a foreign invader, and as a result the body (tries) to protect itself and that triggers a stress response.”

This protective stress response slows and breaks down the active transport channels between the cells– their method of communication –and ultimately results in retention of toxins and difficulty absorbing hydration and nutrients.

“It’s this domino effect of the human cells perceiving our toxic environment to be a stressor (and) the body trying to protect itself from it,” Hanser said, “and that ticks off a cascade of negative processes in the body that make nutrition harder to absorb, make toxins more difficult to get out of your body and make hydration very, very difficult for your body.”

The experts at GIA Wellness took it upon themselves to find a solution to electromagnetic radiation’s impacts on hydration, and developed the i-H2O Activation System based on the Nobel prize-winning research of Dr. Pete Agre.

Agre’s revolutionary findings indicate that the only way for the body to achieve optimum hydration is if the water molecules entering the body are in what’s called single-file alignment, or SFA.

“Think of it as like a pearl string versus a big rubik’s cube type of clump,” Hanser explained. “Your cells have a difficult time absorbing big, clumpy water molecules. Your body has a very easy time absorbing single-file aligned, long-range molecules.”

Hanser continued, “So what really has changed in the last 15, 20 years is this understanding that the quality of water isn’t just driven by its cleanliness, quality of water is driven by its absorbability, and its absorbability can be changed.”   

Developed by nuclear physicists, the i-H2O Activation System allows users to transform the alignment of their ordinary drinking water into SFA ultra-hydrating “intelligent water” in just 30 minutes.

“There’s published science in medical journals and scientific journals, etc. that validate what this technology does,” Hanser said. “We are addressing the issue that drinking water doesn’t equal hydration. We actually create with this activation system … water that is so low in viscosity, we’re talking 400 to 500 times lower in viscosity than the water you first pour into the machine.”

After researching the scientific validation behind the i-H2O Activation System, Santa Clarita acupuncturist Kathleen Kenneally began recommending it to her patients at Kenneally Acupuncture & Healing Light Resource Center.

“I’m a big water pusher in general because … our body, when it’s dehydrated, it’s not healthy– we’re not functioning at our optimum,” Kenneally said. “(Myself) and a number of our patients, family and friends started using this technology with really some great results… I’ve never experienced anything like it before.”
