Alkaline water’s popularity just won’t quit. Sales have grown every year since 2013. But do great sales mean that it’s worth drinking—and are the so-called benefits of alkaline water like preventing cancer, promoting weight loss or improving bone density legit? That’s what we break down in this very first episode of “waste of money or worth it”?

Sources for this episode include:

Systematic review of the association between dietary acid load, alkaline water and cancer

The effects of ingestion of hydrogen-dissolved alkaline electrolyzed water on stool consistency and gut microbiota: a double-blind randomized trial
