Some of the other benefits of drinking alkaline water may include:
- Neutralizing Acid in the Body: Advocates maintain that alkaline water can help neutralize excess acid in the body, which is believed to be a cause of various health issues, including inflammation, digestive problems, and even cancer. Studies have indicated that drinking alkaline water may have a positive impact on gastroesophageal reflux disease, because it denatures pepsin, the enzyme involved in acid production in the digestive tract.
- Hydration: Research suggests that alkaline water is more hydrating than regular water due to its smaller molecular clusters. For example, in one organized study, athletes hydrated with alkaline water demonstrated “favorable changes in hydration status in response to high-intensity interval exercise with a significant decrease of specific urine gravity, increased urine pH and more efficient utilization of lactate after exercise.”
- Antioxidant Properties: Alkaline water may have antioxidant properties due to its higher pH level. Antioxidants can help neutralize harmful free radicals in the body, potentially reducing the risk of chronic diseases.
- Bone Health: Proponents believe that alkaline water can improve bone health by neutralizing acid in the body, which they believe leaches calcium from bones. In one study, post-menopausal women who consumed alkaline water over the course of three months had improved bone density scores and reduced risk of osteoporosis.
- Unique taste: Alkalinity tends to create a smoother, slightly sweet taste with a “slippery” or “velvety” texture on the tongue.
