From “Raw Water” to “Living Water”: The Hidden Science Inside Every Glass—and Inside ZONE VC Ball
Update time: 25-10-15 Views: 26
Did you know?
The water that leaves the treatment plant is only “clean” on paper.
Chlorine, heavy metals, organic pollutants and pipe rust act like invisible hit-men, following the flow all the way to your faucet.
Truly healthy water must be more than “safe”; it must be nutritious.
Today we’ll show you how a single ceramic ball turns tap water into a functional beverage.
Filtration ≠ Purification: Why “removing the bad” is only step one
Most consumers think odorless, colorless, particle-free water is good enough.
Professional standards demand three tiers:
1. Safety—remove chlorine, heavy metals, bacteria
2. Function—keep beneficial minerals, balance pH
3. Activity—raise dissolving & osmotic power so cells can absorb it
Mainstream media—activated carbon, kdf, ion-exchange resin—stop at tier 1.
ZONE VC Ball was invented for tiers 2 and 3.
Nutrition file of one VC Ball: a slow-release library of 30 trace elements
Using a low-temperature (<580 °C) sintering process, natural vitamin C powder is fused into food-grade clay, forming porous ceramic spheres.
Instead of “filtering”, the ball infuses:
- Vitamin C: constant elution neutralizes free chlorine (Cl₂ + VC → de-chlorination), blocking carcinogens such as trihalomethanes
- Se, Zn, Fe, Mg: released as ions to fill daily dietary gaps
- Sr, Yb, K: lower orp from +220 mV to –80 mV, shifting water from oxidative to reductive, boosting anti-oxidant capacity
Test conditions: pH 7.2, 25 °C, 500 mL tap water, 1 ball (φ3-5 mm).
>90 % residual chlorine removed in 30 min, reaching infant-grade limits (GB 5749-2022).
Scenario revolution: from RO units to saunas—one ball fits all
Scenario
Classic pain-point
VC Ball fix
Household RO
Post-filter improves taste only, zero nutrition
Post-carbon add-on VC ball → mineral water on tap
Shower filter
Chlorine dries hair & skin
VC + Ca-sulfite layer, dual de-chlor, shower becomes skin-care
Portable jug
Flat taste, easy spoilage
VC ball inhibits bacteria (Zn²⁺ + low orp), water stays fresh 7 days
Swimming pool/SPA
Strong chlorine smell, red eyes
VC + micro-ceramic media, cut chlorine dosage 50 %, silkier feel
Gym club
Members hate carrying bottles
Fountain fitted with VC ball, sweet taste → higher retention
Why ZONE’s VC ball does NOT crumble or clog
- Low-temp firing ≤580 °C, keeps VC bio-active, prevents carbonization
- Graded pores 0.1-50 µm, BET surface >80 000 cm²/g, slower elution
- Food-grade clay, heavy-metal leaching <0.01 mg/L, meets NSF/ANSI 61
- Patented micro-capsule (Gen 3), service life +40 %; one ball treats 5 000 L—about six months for a family of three
Consumer trials: what changes in one glass?
- Blind taste: 90 % panelists noted “sweet after-taste”, close to Evian
- Plant test: green ivy irrigated with VC water, chlorophyll +22 % (SPAD) after 30 days
- Skin probe: 28-day VC shower, arm corneum moisture +18 %, erythema index –15 % (CK MPA-580)
DIY bonus: craft “VC living water” at home
Materials:
- ZONE VC Ball 50 g (~20 pcs)
- 1 L glass jar
- Tap water 500 mL
Steps:
1. Rinse balls 3× to remove dust
2. Add water, rest 30 min
3. TDS pen: +15~30 ppm; ORP pen: –50~–100 mV
4. Keep refrigerated, consume within 3 days

Water is the most underrated nutrient carrier.
One ceramic ball won’t change the world,
but it will change every glass you drink.
