  How would a negligible change in your stomach acidity kill you? What do you think tums do?

    I never said it does.

      It absolutely will not. If it did, it would kill you.

      Then what does that mean?

        They said:

        1. Alkaline water won’t change your body’s pH.
        2. Changing your body’s pH would kill you.

        Since alkaline water does not change body pH, it would not necessarily kill the drinker.

        Probably either referring to a non-negligible difference or to how being alkaline enough to make a real difference would make it basically poisonous.

        I’m no phlebectomist, so I can’t say whether they’re right about it or not 🤷🏻

  Even if you drink 10 liter and piss all of it out?

    If you drink 10L of anything it will kill you.
