    Alkaline Water

    OK, Just wanted to share.
    Ive been taking alkaline water for the past week and my gains have gone up by 50%. How this works. Your body needs a ph of 7.3 to be optimal. The drinking water and food we take ar highly acidic, hence hard burn and all these anti acid products that are on the market (tums ect.) Drinking alkaline water ajusts your ph to optimal level. I can drink 4L or water in the gym with no bloat and no upset stomach. And seems like I can work out for much longer time without ghetting gassed.

    I dunno, has anyone else experimented with alkaline water?

    Your blood is about 7.3, not everything else. And water is neutral as I recall. Many foods are "alkaline" as well. http://www.energiseforlife.com/food_ph.php

    Your body is 75% water my friend. And if 75% of your body is acidic thats not good for no one. Know your facts please before being a critic

    Good Site though. Has a nice food PH chart

    You're 75% bull. I'm a Biology major.

    I never said alkaline water was a bad thing, either. It's not the only thing out there that claims to help balance and it can be beneficial (or not) depending on the individual. The body has it's own mechanisms for controlling ph, and it does quite a good job provided you give it the tools.

    Whooo Calm down there.

    Most disease today canot survive in an alkaline atmostphere, (cancer ect) And disease rates are higher than ever, so if your body does such a great job of it then please explain!!!

    Gee, if cancer (your own cells) cannot survive in an alkaline environment what might that tell you? I don't need to argue with you. And since you're deciding that alkalinity is the solution to disease why don't you look up why human skin is acidic?

    Big steve you are a fuking moron, you CANNOT change the pH of your body at all through food and drink!

    Please tell me your biological expertise? I am a biomedical, biomolecular genetic engineer and you sir are a moron for trying to pull shit from your ass.

    All the Alkaline water ill do is neutralise the Hydrochloric acid in your stomach.

    Your stomach has a pH of around 1-3, your small intestines have a pH of around 8.5, and your large intestines around 5.5-7.0. Intracellular fluid is around 7.0-7.40, where as extracellular fluid is around 7.3-7.4. Your blood is around 7.35-7.45, if it changes from that YOUR CELLS WILL DIE!!!, that is why CO2 is expelled from the body, and lactic acid is IMMEDIATELY removed.

    Do you even know what pH means?

    and don't go running of goggling it now!

    Do you even know what alkaline is? or what hydroxide ions are, or hydronium is?

    Really, So if i drink a conc. of 10 moles Hydronium ion solution It will adjust my pH to optimal levels, and if i drink a conc. of 20 moles of hyrdonium ion solution it will do the same work?

    And can you please explain these "optimum" levels to us?

    Because I am pretty sure if my pH wasnt optimum i would be dead, but you seem to think otherwise.

    I drink water straight from the Mississippi river. All the different chemicals bring every different level I have to it's optimum stage. Trust me I've been doing it for an entire week!
