Alkaline water

Does anyone have any experience with, or knowledge of drinking alkaline water? I have learned that you can't take medication with it, but would love some input.

What benefits do you think it has? Nothing has been proven that would make it "better" than regular water.2

It's a load of crap. Your body has an extraordinarily fine tuned system to keep your pH in the sweet spot.12

Your body is capable of regulating its pH level
Alkaline water in my opinion is just a waste of $$7 -
I know nothing about this, but my thought is: .. As soon as it hits the stomach, doesn't it all change, on the spot?

Waste of money.1

Can you just give me the money instead and I'll lie to you? Same thing.3

Someone was shocked to see how many people who have perfectly good tap water would still pay for bottled water and thought... hmmm, I can do one better!
Your body very carefully maintains a pH balance. Eating or drinking something doesn't affect it.
Scam. Ingenious scam. I remember seeing an absurd comedy skit about selling bottled air to people, and this is pretty darn close to that.7 -
If your bodies PH levels are out (Acidosis or Alkalosis) you need a hospital not a drink of water.3

Thank you everyone for your input. Much appreciated.0
