ORP measures gain or loss of oxygen in solution, while pH measures hydrogen ion concentration.
Even though pH and ORP are two different factors, it is important to note that pH is not impacted by ORP but ORP is impacted by pH value and chemical contamination of water. Also, pathogens thrive best in an acidic environment. To that end I regularly test the pH of my urine to insure that my bodily fluids remain alkaline ... the higher in the pH 7 range, the better. This frees up oxygen to react and breakdown the hydrogen bonding in the pathogens respiratory system.
