    Its huge out here in Vegas. I've tried it & it does got a better taste to it & seems like it better hydrates you, but who knows how legit that sh^t is cuz its hard to measure hydration in a real way for the average cat I assume. No health issues, but I've heard people with health issues say its helped them.

        Your stomach maintains an acid with a pH between 1.5 to 3.5

        Why would it make any difference if you drink water slightly above a pH 7?

        Affects would be negligible. Your stomach will just adjust.

          In vegas I'm sure people take whatever water they can get.

            Theres a lot of sh^t that seemingly at first look doesn't seem like it should do anything different, IF comes to mind (eating the same amount of sh^t just in a smaller window of time, but losing weight).

            So while I'm still up in the air on if this is a real thing or a bs thing based upon my usage of it it seems like there could be something to it being benefical to certain people & potentially being "better than water" as advertised for reasons to be determined.

              Do you have data on it being better or just feelings? Feelings dont mean much.

              Who cares what they advertise it as, their goal is to sell the water for profit. What else would you expect them to say?

                I'm not saying anything about the advertising, but I have heard number people who use it religiously say it has helped them.

                And I am giving my opinion which still had solid middle ground cuz I mentioned similar sh^t as you just did about the problems with my stance.

                Plus I'm not making a claim either way. I'm merely saying I don't think enough sh^t has been studied & looked into with it. Maybe its real, maybe its bs. If you wanna put your money on its bs fair play to you.

                  Maybe the stomach doesn't have to work as hard for alkaline water, meaning it uses less energy which leaves more energy to do other things.

                  That might explain why a lot of people seem to notice a positive benefit.

                  It would be nice if an in-depth scientific study was done on this. But the food industry and the scientific research they fund appears to be more focused on studying how to get us addicted to their products than on healthy nutrition. So I won't hold my breath.

                    The thing I'm wondering about being more beneficial than "normal" water is how it has a bit of calcium, potassium, etc in it. Then it doesn't have fluoride added like tap water does, which I've heard probably isn't that good to put into you.
