Hey there!

I just picked up a liter of this oxygen-enriched water concentrate. According to the advice I got from some folks, I’m supposed to mix about two tablespoons into a liter of regular water and drink it that way. The label on the bottle is all in German, so I can't make heads or tails of it. The only thing I could figure out was the website www.sunway-vertrieb.ch, but there's absolutely nothing helpful on there. Has anyone here actually used this kind of oxygenated water before? Does drinking this stuff even make any sense??

How much is this going to run me?

Look, I've already got some energized water on hand... just $17 liters worth...
It's 100% energized, though, because I charge it myself... with cosmic energy...

Haha, oh man... 😂 Seriously though, I can't even begin to tell you what that costs until I finally catch my breath from laughing at this absolutely ridiculous post of yours!

They’ve got that oxygen-infused water over at Starbucks
I think it’s that little bottle around $6.00
Personally, I'm not really feeling it.

So... what would it take for you to just stick your head underwater and actually start breathing?

🤔 I can't even remember which movie this was from 🤔

Hey, just wondering, how much is this water going to run me?
And what's the deal with delivery? How are they actually getting it here before summer hits?

Timothy Chase91 said:Hello there!

I recently acquired a liter of what is supposed to be oxygen-enriched water—or rather, a concentrate. Now, according to the instructions I received from some folks, I am meant to add about two tablespoons to a liter of "standard" water and drink it that way. The label on the bottle is entirely in German, so I am completely lost—really, I haven't a clue! The only thing I managed to decipher was this website www.sunway-vertrieb.ch, but it provides absolutely nothing helpful. Does anyone here have any actual experience with this kind of oxygenated water (not necessarily this specific brand)? Does it even make sense to drink it??

Good grief... 🤣 how exactly is that oxygen tied down so it doesn't just evaporate, allowing you to dose it with a spoon? 🤣... I am being serious here. I truly have no idea.

Personally, I find myself wondering where—and at what sort of price point—one might acquire those little oxygen canisters they keep in the minibars of high-end hotels, fancy fitness clubs, and places catering to clients looking for a bit of a "boost" or that certain "healthy" glow.

For instance, I tried the Active O2 from Adelholzener Quellen while traveling—it is water enriched with oxygen, if I recall correctly; I believe it supposedly contains something like 500% more oxygen than regular water. Well... I found it quite pleasant, but nothing extraordinary—of course, there isn't some miraculous effect. As for the cost, I don't remember precisely, but I think you have to shell out more than a couple of dollars for a half-liter, mostly because of the fancy packaging. They do offer flavored versions, though I have heard the taste is an absolute disaster.

Why don't you transcribe the German text (as accurately as possible) and I will try to translate it for you?

Regarding whether it makes sense—it would be wonderful if someone with actual expertise could weigh in. Pure oxygen is dangerous, obviously, but I doubt consuming these types of beverages would be harmful, particularly for people who might be dealing with lower oxygen levels.

I tried that Active O2 stuff from a premium spring water brand once—water enriched with oxygen. Not sure on the exact science, but I think it supposedly has like 500% more oxygen than regular water. Honestly, it was fine, but nothing special. No miracle effect or anything. As for the price, I don't remember exactly, but I think you're paying a premium for a half-liter, mostly because the bottle looks expensive. They have flavored versions too, though I heard the taste is pretty terrible.

Type that out in German (as accurately as possible) and I'll try to translate it for you.

As for whether it makes sense... it would be nice if an expert chimed in. Pure oxygen is dangerous, obviously, but I doubt drinking these kinds of beverages would do any harm, especially for people dealing with low oxygen levels.

You can pick it up at health food stores.
That water tastes weird to me.
Oxygen-enriched water helps with hangovers, fatigue, intense physical workouts, and things like that.

Oh, I’m well aware of that water—I was actually wondering about those oxygen canisters you inhale rather than drink (not that I’d ever buy one myself, but you know... just out of pure curiosity!), yet I haven't seen them in any local shops. As for the water itself? The taste is certainly peculiar, though, strangely enough, I actually quite liked it.

I honestly think we're looking at oxygen toxicity here, and (chemisssssstryyyyyyy) it's definitely not good for you...
Basically, when there's too much oxygen in your blood, it messes with how hemoglobin binds to things, which ends up shifting your blood pH levels slightly...
Besides just being intoxicated by the oxygen, you could get muscle spasms—like in your fingers, hands, or cheeks—and who knows what it does to the diaphragm or the heart...

You can actually reach that kind of oxygen intoxication through hyperventilation, which is what divers do before deep dives, but at least they do it under supervision and actually know what they're doing...

If you're hell-bent on killing yourself, just stick to alcohol... at least it isn't such a massive oxidant...

Fresh water naturally contains oxygen. The longer it sits, the more that oxygen escapes in tiny bubbles (just like any other dissolved gas in water). Adding extra oxygen to water serves absolutely zero purpose. What's the goal here? To increase oxidative stress in your digestive tract? Or just to deal with constant burping and gas? 😁

Those oxygen bars are the same thing—totally useless gimmicks.

Can't recall which movie that was. 🤔 🤔

Pretty sure the title was: "torture prohibited by the Geneva Conventions" 🙄 🤣

You sure about that? How? Like it’s just gonna burn off all that heavy alcohol? 🤣

Oh yeah, totally. 😁 😍
What else isn't working? Why stop there? You clearly need more hemoglobin, better blood vessels, and more muscle mass—all things you’d actually get from just hitting the gym. But sure, let's just dump oxygen into your stomach and hope your body figures out how to deal with it... 🤣

Has anyone else been following the latest breakthroughs coming out of Russian research labs? It turns out water actually has memory. When you infuse it with pure molecular oxygen, it leaves a permanent imprint—one that, once ingested, syncs with the body's own bio-resonant frequency to facilitate healing.

Ancient Eastern traditions have understood this principle for millennia, yet here in the West, the subject remains a frustratingly guarded taboo. If you ever wonder why, look no further than Big Pharma. They’ve built a multi-billion dollar empire on the premise that we never discover the actual truth about our own biology.

If you're skeptical, I completely understand—I was too. That's why I decided to run some tests in my own home lab. Check out these images I captured.

Pure water sourced from mountain springs.
The crystal structures here are perfectly formed, clearly showing how the water has absorbed the vibration of the natural environment.

A "distorted" crystal sample exposed to the smog over Los Angeles.
It's quite striking to see how the water reacts to such unhealthy environmental conditions.

But now, take a look at what happens to that top crystal once we saturate it with pure oxygen!

There is absolutely zero benefit to pumping extra oxygen into your drink. For what purpose? So you can increase the oxidative load on your digestive organs? Or so you can spend the rest of the day dealing with gas and burping? 😁

Those oxygen bars are just a completely useless gimmick.

It contributes to the economy, the government collects taxes, and money just shifts from one pocket to another—if some fool doesn't know how to manage their cash, they might as well hand it over to someone who does. 👍
