Still, or Sparkling? Tap, or bottled? French, or Italian? Low pH, or high? Wet, or dry? All tastes are welcome here in /water/.

Sparkling water has a low pH and is worse for you than uncarbonated soda. Carbon dioxide is a literal toxin.

>> No.12499989

>>12499979
Wrong, most sparkling waters are around 7.5, with the exception of some like Perrier, which is around 5.5, and Badoit is a 6.5.
Natural mineral water, still or sparkling, has numerous health benefits over tap water.

Water is pretty much all I ever drink these days. Used to be a soda fiend back in high school. Weened myself off of them by switching over to lighter sodas like sprite and then eventually downgrading to sparkling water and after that, it was easy to just switch fully over to water. I rotate a few jugs in the fridge so that I can keep my personal water bottle that I carry with me everywhere full of ice cold goodness. I swear to god that nothing hits you better than that first big gulp at 3 in the morning when you wake up with a dry mouth.

short answer, no....it had no bearing at all on your blood pH
long story summarized: the blood pH has a very very thin margin of safety:
pH too low, you die, pH too high, you die; your renal function (among several other factors) keeps this under tight control; on a more practical level, the acidic contents of your upper GI tract would immediately cancel any alkaline qualities out

TL:DR, you fell for the latest diet pseudoscience, and someone made money off you

You guys should make your own. If you have a homebrew setup (and you should) it's super easy.

For 5 gallons:

5 gallons - Distilled Water
2.2 grams - Kosher (non-iodized) salt
0.2 grams - Potassium Chloride
10.6 grams - Epson Salt
0.57 mg - Calcium Nitrate
3.3 grams - Calcium Carbonate
9.5 grams - Gypsum
0.3 grams - Magnesium Chloride

Pour minerals into a sanitized keg and shake for a few minutes. Carb around 10-12 psi (maybe lower) to emulate the carbonation level of real San Pellegrino, or do like I do and carb around 30 psi. I like mine bubbly! By the time it's fully carbonated (force carbing is fine) the minerals will be completely dissolved. The carbonic acid helps to dissolve them. Before that it will have a chalky taste to it.

I've tasted this against the real thing. This clone is not exact, but it isveryclose.

Between three of us, we've gone through three kegs over the last three weeks. I've saved about $125 by making my own San Pellegrino.
