A healthy body does an excellent job of keeping its pH levels within a narrow range called acid-base balance.
For example, the acid in your stomach and the alkaline secretions from the pancreas work to “even out” the pH of food and beverages. And your lungs and kidneys keep the pH of your blood tightly regulated between 7.35 to 7.45. So, whether your water is more alkaline or not, it will end up neutralized once you ingest it.
You wouldn’t want your blood to be more alkaline or more acidic than these ranges, anyway, because that would indicate an underlying health problem. Blood that is too acidic or alkaline could be a sign of liver, kidney or lung disease.
