Water purifiers can also help prevent high cholesterol.

A clinical study by Hanoi Heart Hospital has shown promising results regarding the support of treatment and prevention of high cholesterol in patients simply by using a water filter correctly.

Hanoi Heart Hospital has recently completed and approved a research project titled "Evaluating the effectiveness of Kangaroo RO water purifiers in supporting the reduction of blood lipids in patients with dyslipidemia treated at Hanoi Heart Hospital".

The study aimed to investigate the prevalence of lipid disorders in the research group and evaluate the effectiveness of water purifiers in supporting the treatment of lipid disorders in patients treated at Hanoi Heart Hospital.

The Heart Hospital conducted a prospective, descriptive, longitudinal study on patients with dyslipidemia who were receiving treatment prescribed by the Hanoi Heart Hospital. Patients continued to receive the same lipid-lowering medication and had water purifiers installed at home.

According to research, pH level is one of the factors affecting bodily functions. Due to environmental pollution, poor eating habits, work stress, lack of exercise, and other reasons, the human body often has a low pH level, meaning the body is acidified, which weakens cell function and disrupts metabolism.

Therefore, creating an alkaline environment to neutralize acid is an effective measure in supporting the treatment and prevention of high blood cholesterol, in addition to other drug treatments.

It is known that the new generation of RO water purifiers has a special filtration mechanism that produces ORP-Omega water with high pH and low electrolytes, a type of alkaline water that neutralizes acid in the body, helping to prevent and support the treatment of hyperlipidemia.

Water filtered through a water purifier has a high pH and low electrolytes, making it a good alkaline water that helps balance the body's homeostasis. The pH and ORP (Oxygen Reduction Potential) of water depend on factors such as: the source of natural minerals, the voltage during the decomposition process, and the flow rate of water through the polarized layers.
