The "Japan Association of Preventive Medicine for Adult Disease" - What is it?

 JAPA representative states that the Japan Association of Preventive Medicine for Adult Disease (JAPA) is a prestigious organization composed of over 6,600 top physicians in managerial positions (hospital heads, clinic owners, etc.). It is related to the Japan Association of Doctors, the Olympic Medical Commitee and other well known medical organizations.

The Approval Process (after an application for review is accepted):

Step One:
A human person (no animal tests are conducted - becausepeople will use the end product) tests the

product for 6 months to ensure that there are no harmful side effects.

Step Two:
A person tests the product for another 6 months to determine if it will do what the manufacturer claims it will do. Most manufacturers and their products are disqualified at this stage.

Step Three:
The product is scheduled for review by the Board of Directors (composed of 16 members - 'specialists among specialists'). At time of review, after meticulous investigation and careful deliberation, it is decided whether to endorse(give the product its coveted 'Seal of Approval') the product or not. Endorsement is given to just one manufacturer per industry or business.

What is considered is not only theQuality of the product, but also the Spirit of the manufacturer - that is, to what extent does it contribute to the welfare of Society and benefit people? Enagic received the International Earth Environment University (IEEU) Award for 2004 because "1. drinking electrolyzed water reduces the use of PET (plastic) bottles that is a source of environmental contamination and 2. drinking electrolyzed water enhances good health and lifestyle-related and other diseases, which in turn significantly cuts medical costs." Which in turn helps to reduce your taxes, according to the JAPA representative.

The manufacturer or company must also give evidence of 'Continuity' - because it would be a terrible embarrassment to JAPA if they gave their 'Seal of Approval' to a company that closed down just 2 or 3 years later.
*Out of more than 40 Alkaline Ionizer manufacturer applicants tested, only Enagic was chosen for endorsement by the prestigious Japan Association of Preventive Medicine for Adult Disease and granted their coveted 'Seal of Approval'.
