Water Source
Altai Mountains - Kelan River
Deep in the heart of Eurasia, the Altai Mountains are among the world's most remote mountain ranges from any ocean. The glaciers here are notable in China - formed by the influence of both Atlantic and Arctic air masses. This gives the snowfall here characteristics unlike any other mountain range in China. Due to long-distance water vapor migration, the glaciers, snow, and rainfall of the Altai Mountains all exhibit low-deuterium properties, making this a natural repository of low-deuterium water.
Production Location
The Kelan River draws primarily from glacier and snowmelt in the Altai Mountain range, flowing 256 kilometers southward, nourishing countless herders and vegetation along the way. Gold deposits settle in parts of the riverbed - "Altay" means "Golden Mountain" in Mongolian, hence the region's nickname "Land of Golden Mountains and Silver Waters." Each spring around April, rising temperatures melt the ice and snow, sending water from the mountain peaks southward to join the Irtysh River, creating a stunning natural landscape.
Through billions of years of geological processes - rock filtration, geomagnetic influence, geothermal energy, and high pressure - this glacier meltwater has been imbued with exceptional energy and vitality, meeting internationally recognized healthy water standards.
Glacier Water's Low-Isotope Characteristics
The Chinese Academy of Sciences' Altai Glacier Station discovered this distinctive characteristic observed in the region.
Research shows that when high-deuterium water enters living organisms and penetrates cells, it can replace hydrogen atoms in DNA's double helix structure, affecting hydrogen-bond behavior in laboratory models. These points are presented as scientific background rather than medical claims.

Why Cooland Chose the Kelan River
To fully unveil the mystery of the "Sacred Water of the Great Khan," a CCTV "Geography of China" film crew joined Chinese Academy of Sciences researcher Dr. Wang Feiteng in Altay, Xinjiang in 2015.
Through extensive exploration and over a hundred laboratory tests, they discovered that the headwaters of the Kelan River in the Altay region contain low natural deuterium levels in China - below -100‰. This water readily penetrates cell membranes, supporting a smooth hydration profile. The mystery was finally solved.
