chinl — Fri, 01 Aug 2025 08:38:12 +0000

In July 2025, Vikoda once again affirmed its position as a strategic partner and pioneering enterprise in the field of nutrition by accompanying the Vietnam Nutrition Association at the Specialized Scientific Conference titled “Nutrition in Surgery and Modern Intensive Care: A Journey of Development and Integration”, held in Hanoi.

The conference brought together leading experts to discuss the critical role of nutrition in post-operative recovery. Domestic studies highlighted that a proper nutritional regimen significantly enhances treatment outcomes and reduces healthcare costs. Assoc. Prof. Dr. Hoang Manh An, former Director of Military Hospital 103, emphasized the essential role of proteins, vitamins, minerals, water, and electrolytes during the pre- and post-operative phases of major surgeries.

At the event, many experts also acknowledged the potential health benefits of alkaline mineral water, particularly for cardiovascular health, blood pressure regulation, and the circulatory system. Notably, alkaline water has been shown to reduce blood viscosity after physical activity and enhance the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to cells, thereby supporting physical recovery.

Vikoda’s natural alkaline mineral water stands out as a prime example of public health support. It delivers the renowned “5 Goods” benefits, starting with water purity at its source. The product is bottled directly at the Đảnh Thạnh natural alkaline mineral spring, located within a 35-hectare protected zone—ensuring both quality and safety from the very first drop.

Next, its naturally alkaline pH level of 9.0 is one of Vikoda’s key features—helping to neutralize excess stomach acid while preserving valuable trace minerals. It also aids in transporting nutrients, acting as a solvent that helps dissolve vitamins and minerals in the body. This supports the absorption and metabolic delivery of oxygen and nutrients to cells, maintaining essential bodily functions. Lastly, alkaline water enhances detoxification by serving as a solvent that boosts the efficiency of toxin elimination through urine, sweat, and other excretory pathways.

Speaking at the conference, Ms. Nguyễn Thị Nga, General Director of Vikoda, emphasized:
“Water accounts for 60–70% of total body weight and is present in all vital organs. Children have an even higher water ratio than adults, so ensuring proper hydration—especially with high-quality water—must always be a top priority to protect life and health.”

Vikoda Natural Alkaline Mineral Water – The 5 “Goods”: Nurturing Life for Complete Well-being

chinl — Fri, 01 Aug 2025 08:30:33 +0000

In the journey toward daily wellness, choosing the right drinking water is a vital first step toward sustainable health. That’s why more and more consumers, celebrities, and nutrition experts are turning to Vikoda Natural Alkaline Mineral Water—a symbol of purity, authenticity, and quality—as an essential part of modern healthy living.

Sourced from the precious Dảnh Thạnh mineral spring at a depth of 220 meters, Vikoda offers a naturally perfect pH of 9.0 and is rich in essential trace minerals. It delivers five proven “goods” that make it an ideal choice for daily health support.

Pure at the Source – Absolute Peace of Mind

Vikoda is extracted from a 35-hectare protected zone with ideal geological conditions, completely free from pollution or external interference. The water naturally maintains a stable temperature of 72°C and retains its original mineral composition. A fully enclosed extraction and bottling system preserves both microbiological and chemical integrity—ensuring absolute safety and purity in every drop.

Optimal Alkalinity – Restoring Body Balance

With a natural pH of 9.0, Vikoda helps neutralize excess stomach acid and brings the body closer to its ideal pH range (7.35–7.45). This is essential in counteracting acidification caused by stress, high-protein diets, alcohol, and unhealthy habits—supporting long-term wellness and metabolic balance.

Rich in Minerals – Boosting Vitality

Vikoda contains a diverse range of natural minerals including Na⁺, K⁺, Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, and HCO₃⁻, which help supplement essential nutrients. These elements support immune function, improve digestion, enhance cardiovascular health, strengthen bones, and boost endurance.

Natural trace minerals in Vikoda support multiple aspects of health and vitality

Antioxidant Power – Slowing Aging

With an ORP (Oxidation Reduction Potential) of -100mV, Vikoda helps neutralize harmful free radicals, aiding detoxification and slowing down the aging process. Its ideal TDS level (100–400 mg/l) makes it safe and suitable for everyday use—even for children and seniors.

Micro-Clustered Molecules – Better Nutrient Absorption

Vikoda’s ultra-small water molecules penetrate cells more easily, helping the body absorb nutrients faster and eliminate toxins more effectively. This supports improved metabolism, increased energy, and a daily sense of renewal.

Thanks to these outstanding benefits—endorsed by nutrition experts and embraced by wellness-focused celebrities—Vikoda natural alkaline mineral water is becoming a staple in Vietnamese households as a premium choice for balanced, healthy living.

The 5 “Goods” of Vikoda have been recognized by experts across national nutrition conferences throughout Vietnam

Continuously innovating to enhance community well-being, Vikoda aims to become a leading provider of premium health-focused products and services—a place where talent thrives and excellence is celebrated. Moving forward, Vikoda will continue promoting the message of natural wellness, accompanying every family on the path to a healthier, more fulfilling lifestyle.

Back to the Source: Discovering Vikoda’s Natural Alkaline Mineral Water Spring – “The Essence of Purity”

chinl — Fri, 01 Aug 2025 08:27:12 +0000

Nestled in Cay Sung Hamlet, Dien Tho Commune, Khanh Hoa Province, the Dảnh Thạnh mineral spring is one of Vietnam’s rare natural alkaline water sources, recognized for its long-term viability and health benefits. This spring is the primary source for Vikoda’s natural alkaline mineral water—a flagship brand of Khanh Hoa Mineral Water Joint Stock Company.

Surrounded by a 35-hectare protected zone, the Dảnh Thạnh spring is rigorously managed to preserve water purity and maintain the stability of the surrounding ecosystem. Drilled at an average depth of over 220 meters, its key well—Dảnh Thạnh 1 (DT1)—ensures a consistent supply of high-quality water for Vikoda’s entire production line.

What sets Dảnh Thạnh apart is the naturally high water temperature at its extraction point—around 72°C—evidence of its deep geothermal origins and stable subsurface conditions. The water carries a naturally alkaline pH of 9.0 and is rich in essential minerals such as H₂SiO₃, HCO₃⁻, Na⁺, K⁺, and Ca²⁺. Ideal for daily consumption, this mineral profile helps support digestion, neutralize stomach acid, and improve gut health.

A Closed Pipeline System Powered by Innovation

Integral to transporting water from the spring to the bottling facility is the Hung Yen Bridge—an infrastructure project completed in 2023. Spanning 132 meters, the newly built bridge replaced an aging structure over 30 years old, ensuring safety for both internal logistics and the water transfer system. Beneath it runs a dual-layer steel pipeline that directly channels hot mineral water to the production plant. Its sealed, high-durability design preserves the natural temperature of 72°C without artificial reheating. This is among Vietnam’s few specially engineered high-pressure pipeline systems for mineral water.

In addition to mineral water, the Dảnh Thạnh site also reveals deposits of natural mineral mud—formed by the interaction of hot mineral water with subterranean mineral-rich rocks. As the water flows through iron-, magnesium-, and sulfur-bearing geological layers and encounters pH and temperature changes near the surface, minerals precipitate and form therapeutic mud. This mud is high in trace elements and sometimes contains thermophilic microorganisms—enhancing its potential applications in wellness and skincare.

Structure of the Dảnh Thạnh Natural Alkaline Mineral Water Extraction Well

All extraction processes at Dảnh Thạnh operate within a closed-loop system under strict hygiene and environmental standards. Once transported to the Vikoda factory, the water undergoes sterile processing and bottling, ensuring its natural mineral composition remains intact.

Guided by the philosophy “Pure as a Gem in Stone,” Vikoda not only delivers high-quality mineral water sourced from pristine nature but also leads the way in sustainable resource management and scientific application at every stage. The Dảnh Thạnh spring, therefore, represents more than a water source—it symbolizes the harmony between nature, technology, and community wellness.

Experts pointed out that climate change in Vietnam affects not only the economy and daily life but also poses serious threats to public health—both directly and indirectly. It contributes to the rise of infectious diseases such as dengue fever, hand-foot-and-mouth disease, and diarrhea, while also worsening non-communicable conditions such as cardiovascular issues, respiratory problems, and mental health disorders.

During the conference, Prof. Dr. Vo Van Thang, President of the Public Health and Preventive Medicine Association in Hue, emphasized the “One Health” strategy—a cross-sectoral approach integrating health, agriculture, and environment—to ensure optimal well-being for humans, animals, and ecosystems. This approach highlights disease control at the source, including livestock health management, enhanced biosecurity in farming, and environmental pathogen monitoring in soil, water, and air. Nutritional solutions that boost immunity—particularly for those with metabolic syndrome—are also crucial.

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Pham Ngoc Khai, President of the Vietnam Nutrition Association, underscored the importance of daily hydration, noting that natural alkaline mineral water is an optimal choice thanks to its superior health benefits. Vikoda, in particular, was spotlighted for its “5 health benefits”: clean water sourced from the Dảnh Thạnh mineral aquifer, a naturally alkaline pH of 9.0 for acid-neutralizing properties, essential trace minerals (TDS 100–400 mg/l), ultra-small water molecules that aid detoxification, and antioxidant capabilities via its negative ORP.

At the 2025 National Scientific Conference, Vikoda not only served as the exclusive beverage sponsor but also impressed attendees with a striking product showcase booth. Through this presence, the company aimed to promote the message of healthy living and encourage proactive health and nutrition care inspired by nature.

This dedication to preserving the purity of the original water source reflects Vikoda’s commitment to safeguarding the natural treasures entrusted to us by the environment.

Beyond responsible sourcing, Vikoda also emphasizes sustainability in product design. Vikoda Alkaline’s cans are made entirely from recycled aluminum—an environmentally friendly packaging choice.
