Why we actually need our body to be acidic


As a medical doctor, the explosion of interest in alkaline water in recent years has been very concerning. Alkaline water consumption is projected to hit a market capitalization of $1.3 billion by 2023. No doubt this is driven by clever marketing advertising alkaline water as an easy way to “make your body less acidic.”

For many people, the idea of ​​a more alkaline and less acidic body sounds ideal. However, what does that actually mean for the way our body functions naturally? And are the many health benefit claims of alkaline water substantiated?

Water can be naturally alkaline water if it picks up minerals such as calcium and magnesium after passing over rocks in natural springs. San Pellegrino water is a classic example of sparkling water that contains these important minerals.
