Some say drinking alkaline water is beneficial for health. This has to do with maintaining body pH so the body does not become acidic. Others claim that body pH is naturally maintained.
Hydrate yourself with eight to 10 large glasses of alkaline water per day. Most tap water has a pH of 6.5 to 7, while alkaline water has a pH of 9, making it better at rebalancing the acid-alkaline levels in your body. Alkaline water molecules are also smaller than those of tap water. This means they permeate your body more thoroughly and leave you more hydrated than regular water.
