Why tf would drinking alkaline water be good for you? I believe it would be bad for u in the long-term, cos that would make ur body produce more stomach acid since it constantly gets neutralized, or am I wrong here?
It’s marketing bs because there is pseudoscience that the cause of cancer and other illnesses is from acids and alkaline water will prevent you from those illnesses even though it’s completely bunk and push by the same people who think essential oils can heal you too
It is good for reflux, as it helps to remove acidity from the esophagus.
But after it gets to the stomach and meets your stomach acid, it doesn’t matter. It’s not gonna change stomach acidity or pH level in intestines, but can help with reflux symptoms and avoid esophagal erosion (which can lead to cancer).
So it’s something that is useful, but for different reasons than most people think.

This one always makes me crazy. Our stomachs work to keep an acidic environment for our protection and digestion.
Hey! Maybe I should sand off the skin on my body to get more vitamin D when I sunbathe!

Would it be wrong to offer someone like this a spoonful of lye? Its alkaline…
Before or after you cut their face off?
After, obviously. Gotta keep the lips unscarred.

Just add a little squirt of lemon for flavour.
Is that you, Gwyneth? Is this me?
Got it in one!

Wouldn’t a Tums be just as effective? And cheaper?

You really have a problem with the alkaline water and not cutting someone’s face and sewing in place of yours?
I know, it’s like they want to piss on the poor or something
