Okay so please watch the BioPro iH2O flash video:

And come back and tell me what you think.

Personally this sounds like a hoax. Being that I've taken basic physics and chemistry (granted not very advanced stuff), I just cant see how you can align water molecules in a more efficient manner that your body would absorb them. On the atomic level water molecules always moving, twisting (like a mosh pit at a concert). In theory I guess you could align water molecules for a few micro seconds, but they would all just go back to being random again. But I want an educated person to come here and tell me, like lep, or someone with a physics or medical degree.

The only thing I can think of is they have added another substance which joins to the water to make it easier to brake apart and use by the body. Water is a polar molecule meaning one side has a slight negative/positive charge. This means that they align together neatly (bottom joins to the top of the next molecule and so on) and there are forces between molecules holding them together much like magnets which can be difficult to break apart (example, I think it is monounsaturated oils are difficult to break apart and the body dosen't know what to do with them so it stores them as fat - hence why they are bad as opposed to polyunsaturated fats which can be broken apart easier).

Perhaps a substance has been added which goes in between the water molecules which makes the forces between the molecules easier to break apart by the body.

Sounds a bit far fetched though.

It's complete bull. Probably an april fools joke.

Surprisingly this has been around for a while. My GF got one of their products for her birthday from a co-worker, their cellular phone radiation absorber. You place it on your cellular phone an supposedly it absorbs harmful radiation from hitting your head. I think you get more radiation in the sun than you do from your cellular phone, but I could be wrong about this.

Well there are 3 forces in the world of chemistry (well more than 3).
-There is the molecular bond that is what holds atoms together (one oxygen and one hydrogen that fits into oen another's shells) (Lets give it an arbitrary number of 1, and 0 being neutral)
-The "hydrogen bond" as its called that is there is attraction between the two hydrogens and the oxygen of two different molecules (Relative to the molecular bond its about 0.3).
-The Vander valls, which is the attraction between the protons (+) in the nucleus and the electrons of another atom (-) (its about 0.001)
The other bonds that I was speaking of are the nuclear forces holding the nucleus together thats on the realm of Atom Bombs if you manage to break them.

On the atomic level water is always moving and reforming (in fact oxygen molecules swap hydrogen molecules and vice-e-versa). They are fluid, as in they move over one another at all times. The only atoms that you can really align are metal.

I think what I'm asking am I being crazy? Is this for real?
