We’d like to invite our customers who just received Ion Wave or Enefuture to try this simple and amazing test.

Table of contents

  1. First, taste the salt on the “ionwave” or “enefuture”.
  2. Why does the salt taste different?

First taste the salt on the “ionwave” or “enefuture”.

As shown in image below, a) place a piece of food wrap (for hygiene) over the Ion Wave (former product name: Breakthrough) or Enefuture and put a pinch of regular household salt in the center. b) Repeat with another piece of food wrap or use a small plate and a pinch of salt.

First, taste the salt from the ion wave or enefuture.
Next, taste the salt from the food wrap or small plate without the ion wave.
Please follow this order, otherwise It will be difficult to compare the taste differences.

First, taste the salt on the ionwave. Next, taste the salt without the ionwave.

Can you taste the difference?

Why does the salt taste different?

Before answering, many people helped us with this experiment, and unfortunately about 5% of them couldn't tell the taste difference.
However, 95% of the people recognized the difference right away, and they reported that the salt on the ion wave was "mellow" and "tasty," while the original salt taste was "salty" and "sharp”.

The reason for the difference in taste is that salt begins to oxidize the moment it comes into contact with air. Oxidation is a chemical reaction in which a target substance loses electrons.
In the case of this experiment, it is food, but even though oxidation is a reaction that loses electrons, it is difficult to imagine because it is invisible to the eye.
However, there are various kinds of oxidation around us. For example, the rusting of nails is caused by oxidation. Have you ever experienced old rubber falling apart? With food, it is easy to understand that when you peel an apple and leave it in the air for a few minutes, the color changes, and that is also oxidation. Oxidation is the loss of electrons, so just restored the electrons on it. And it will be able to "redox" it. Therefore, ions (atoms or atomic groups that are charged due to excess or lack of electrons) are used to reduce electrons to oxidized salt, making it closer to the original taste.

Besides, some foods are delicately oxidized and fermented to give them character, like many black teas, if they were to reduce it, their taste would be very different and not delicious.
