Biohacking with Alkaline Water

www.Health.Harvard.edu

Acidity and alkalinity, or pH, are measured on a scale of 0-14. Normal drinking water has a neutral pH of 7. Alkaline water typically has a pH of 8 to 9. Drinking alkaline water, or water that has been ionized, daily works to balance the pH of your body and restores your body to a more alkaline state, where disease and sickness cannot thrive in. Benefits of drinking alkaline water are:

• Boosts the immune system

• Helps with healthy weight loss

• Cleanses the colon

• Improves hydration and recovery after exercises

• Detoxifies the body and neutralize free radicals in our body

• Improves skin and hair health with anti-aging properties
