How to make Alkaline Water at Home: A Refreshing Tonic for Healthy Living

Alkaline water has a higher pH level than any other drinking water. Alkaline water neutralizes the acid in
your body.

Our body maintains a pH balance, which is very crucial to carry out various processes in our body. A pH
scale measures from one to fourteen where seven is the neutral point, anything above 7 is alkaline or
more commonly known as basic in nature, and anything below 7 is acidic in nature.

In an easy language, pH is known as power of hydrogen, which basically means to measure the amount
of hydrogen ions in your body. Ideally, a healthy human body needs the presence of both bases and
acids however the ratio that it normally maintains is 51:49, keeping the alkaline (basic) nature just a little
higher than the acids. The pH level of a normal body is believed to range between 7.3 - 7.45.

What Is Alkaline Water?

Acid is a necessity, particularly in the stomach wherein it is required to break and digest food. However,
certain foods are also acidic in nature, and over consumption of such foods can increase acidity in the
stomach, resulting in various problems. Alkaline water is water with a better pH level than normal
drinking water, and is meant to induce a basic nature in the body. This water is built up of calcium,
magnesium, sodium and potassium. It is said that alkaline water helps in maintaining the pH balance in
the stomach.

Ailments like acid reflux produce unwanted stomach acid or bile, which irritates our body and causes
chest burns. This can prove to be very harmful for our body and can decrease the basic nature of our
body. To neutralize this acidic content, alkaline water is beneficial to give a quick boost to the pH level of
the body.

5. Alkaline Water helps in Weight Loss

An infamous study in 2011 called The effect of daily consumption of 2 liters of electrolyzed water for 2
months on body composition and several physiological parameters in four obese subjects: a initial
