A member asked:
Drinking alkaline water help in controlling diabetes, retinopathy, pyelonephritis, uti and calcification of arteries, is this true?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Alkaline water.: If you are the patient with those problems, you have serious issues. You need to see a physician(s) to deal with them to offer you treatment strategies other than alkaline water, which is not the preferred therapy for any one of the conditions you mentioned in your question. Good luck.
