A member asked:
Can i give my children ages ranging from 2yrs to 15 yrs old alkaline water daily? or there a limit to how much?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No benefit: There is no evidence that drinking alkaline or acidic water would make any difference on one's health status except that it will lighten your pocketbook. The body functions best at a physiologic pH and will do all it can to keep this balance. Even a little deviation from the physiologic pH will likely make one very sick.
