Doc, I know you don't need any more love letters but still, there is value in what you do that goes beyond good and true information. You are there for us in the middle of chaos and you are a point of stability. Much love.
I have this machine for over 10 years… You do not drink this water half hour before and half hour after you eat because you need your stomach to be acidic to break down the food…correct… there are different pHs on that machine… You can alter the pH to your life style… my husband had stage four cancer… And this Water was one of his regimen that bought his body back to balance.
In order to maintain the acidic level in the stomach after injesting alkaline 9.5 kangen, your body has a buffer system that requires sodium chloride to be produced in the blood to regulate your stomatch acidic levels back to normal. Sodium produces alkalinity in our blood, but because our blood pH needs to be between 7.35 and 7.45, it sends alkalinity to our tissues, which results in cellular hydration/alkalinity. Today's doctors are simply too lazy or too busy to study.
Dr Berg your reasoning seems very sound however when I met with someone promoting alkaline water, I was told that an individual who started drinking it was able to eliminate chronic acid reflux. This seems to contradict your message and I would be very interested in your thoughts.
@@larryfer4526it depends what whether the water is living or dead they could easily be drinking dead alkaline water those are made with baking soda/powder it’s one of the 2 but that will calm the acidity in your stomach where living alkaline water wouldn’t theoretically do that I’m actually about to make myself a lab rat bc the dead alkaline water I drink helps with my stomach acid reflux I have a very over reactive acid reflux so if you’re curious I’ll lyk how that goes
Hello Dr. Berg! I found your video about "The Dangers and Benefits of Alkaline Water" very interesting and educational. One thing I try to do is take care of my health. I have Epilepsy Seizures which was hereditary from my father's side of the family in which I have both petit mal and grand mal seizures. Also, I have stomach ulcer, acid reflux, and high triglycerides. I take prescription medications for all of these specific conditions. I used to work in a warehouse and ended up having a seizure on the job. My previous neurologist/epileptologist mentioned to me that I was drinking the wrong type of water. This is what was offered at my old job at the time in the warehouse. They either would provide the brands of Dasani, Aquafina, and/or Crystal Geyser. I lived in a different state at the time when my seizure occurred. He told me that a person with Epilepsy Seizures is supposed to drink Alkaline Water or PH balanced water. I moved to a different state back in 2022 and currently do a remote job sitting down as an ESL Teacher and Academic Tutor. I do walk everywhere by exercising just to let you know. I was informed by a medical professional the following things: "Alkaline Water can raise your blood pressure due to it having sodium in it." Some questions I have for you are as follows: Is it true that Alkaline Water has sodium in it? Is it true that Alkaline Water can raise your blood pressure? What do you think is the best type of water for me to drink due to my health condition? The only reason I switched to drinking alkaline water was so that way my seizures would stay under control, have enough electrolytes in my body, and I would stay hydrated. Many times when I have drunk Drinking Water, Purified Drinking Water, or Mountain Spring Water this hasn't kept me hydrated enough. All the seizures I have had previously were mostly because of either me already being dehydrated, having dehydration beforehand, or due to stress. What are your suggestions and recommendations?
Sharing Dr Berg notes: Natural water from a well or spring is alkaline. It’s alkaline because it contains minerals like calcium and magnesium. Many people believe that things that are acidic are unhealthy and things that are alkaline are healthy. But that’s not altogether true. We have a lot of different acids in our bodies that have many important functions. We don’t need to worry about alkalizing the body. The body regulates the pH in different areas. For example, your blood should be slightly alkaline, but your stomach should be very acidic.
It’s possible to get alkaline water created by a machine that uses electricity to alter it instead of using minerals to alkalize it. If you drink alkaline water that's created artificially, you’re going to alter the pH in the stomach. Potential side effects of alkaline water made artificially can include: • Heartburn • Acid reflux • Gas • GERD • Infection • Hair loss • Heart arrhythmias However, natural water, like alkaline spring water, has no side effects. Alkalizing the stomach could lead to a deficiency in stomach acids. The stomach should be very acidic to help you break down protein, absorb minerals and vitamin B12, and kill pathogens. As we age, we lose stomach acid. Antacids also weaken stomach acid. But, low stomach acid is the root cause of symptoms like heartburn, GERD, and acid reflux. Alkalizing the stomach instead of acidifying it could worsen these symptoms and lead to many other serious side effects. I’ve found that I can digest better when I drink acidic water, like carbonated water-especially if I add a teaspoon of either apple cider vinegar or lemon juice. Overall, alkaline water has certain health benefits because it contains minerals. But alkaline water is only beneficial if it’s natural and not created by a machine. Thank you Dr Berg!! 😺👍
My Enagic Kangen machine, I do put minerals, there is a knob I can pull out and pour a packet of minerals. Also my machine makes 2.5 - 11.5 I can drink 7.5 normal water. My machine makes 2.5 acid water to disinfect to clean counters and floors or make up to 11.5 alkaline water to wash vegetables. 🌻
@@lokendrabhati1808 I have my Kangan machine for over 10 years… There are different pH’s like 2.5 pH is very acidic. It will help you break down your food and also help you if you have food poisoning… it has helped my husband myself my family tremendously… You have to know how to work with it. You just don’t drink it all day long to alkaline your body the different pH you can clean your food with it. Cook with it make coffee with it, etc..
Hello Dr. Berg, I´m from Germany, so excuse my English. I bought a machine for filtering and alcalising water. As I asked them about this problem a year ago, they told me that the water doesn´t stay in the stomach, but goes direktly into the small intestin. And the water ist not buffered, like water with minerals. I´m now drinking it with pH of about 8-9. By the Ionisation it is enriched with H2 and so I think, it could be not so bad.
@@Drbergplease can you make a video about Lactoferrin and benefits in health and sports (IGF1, or testosterone maybe, etc..) its very rare complement. Thank you
@@dianasimplifiesYeah, the same thing happened to me when I tried it a few times for GERD. Nearly vomited every time. Too bad, as it worked great for my father.
Hello Dr. Berg. I love your videos because they are informative and helpful. I recently purchased a Kangen water machine and I am attempting to assess how my body feels differently after two months. The purchase was not inexpensive and the time has passed to return the machine. I wish I had seen your video before purchasing this very expensive machine.
Understandable to have divided opinion after watching. But that is truly a life changing machine. I still plan owning one. Know too many people who had life saving benefits.
I own a Kangen machine as well , I’m not a distributor. I’m an end user and I will say this kangen water isn’t just “alkaline” water , it’s hydrogen molecular water which is a lot different! Reason why Japanese hospitals use them.
I agree with dr Berg some of our organs should be acidic , but like I said Kangen is hydrogen molecular water . And there’s benefits in drinking hydrogen molecular water.
Great info - I teach a class on pH and the topic is very confusing to students (who are taught they should be eating an all alkaline diet) - it's much more complicated than that ;). I appreciate your video as I share it with my students :). HCL is paramount!
I had colicky pelvic pain for 3 days, even in a fasted state. On the 4th day, I fasted and drank a 1 liter water bottle of alkaline water (store bought). No more pain. Thoughts?
Hi Sir, I am from India. I was using artificial alkaline membrane since 2 years in my water purifier to reduce acidity. However drinking that water increased acid reflux, gas, indigestion problems, small intestines problems, ibd, autoimmune disorders. Also Started feeling allergies like nerve weakness, muscle twitching immediately after drinking that water. Since then i was trying to investigate what was causing issue in my body. This video is a life saver for me. I Uninstalled that alkaline membrane and started drinking RO purified normal ph water. All the problems mentioned above are gone from day1. Hats off and many thanks to you. You are a life saver.
Hey I am also from india you may use KNL NF membrane that reduce your water tds at level that you want , like NF 80 Reduces ur water tds by 80% . In ndia healthy water tds must be in range 150 to 250 in order to have minerals in water.
I found out about ionizer today. It's not same as using an alkaline candle in your purifier. But I'm not sure if Dr Berg is also including it in his don't buy list. According to a video I watched today, ionizer turns into water similar to water from Gangotri. But I think if we use a TDS controller and set it to 150 to 200, we can get alkaline water. Now it will be a mix of acidic and alkaline water both. But having that kind of TDS and still have Fluoride and Arsenic in it, is it worth it? As these things only get removed in RO, not if it bypasses Ro and is filtered through UF and UV only.
@@lokendrabhati1808 Ok thanks. I will read about it. You must watch video on Health OPD channel posted ten days ago about Ionizer and let me know what you think.
@@Soul-yx9if I watched a small portion, I clear you some concepts regarding water ionizers. Most of the water ionizers demo claims water clustering by tea bag demo or turmeric demo but no such things exists. Turmeric becomes red in alkaline medium that's the reason not micro clustering , use baking soda in normal tap water and put turmeric it will turn red. Micro cluster is a false marketing strategy. In Green tea bag green tea also works as natural ph indicator One more thing that kangen demonstrator uses puting tomato, red onion and pomegranate in kangen 11.5 ph water and they shows its chemical when dipped in water for 30 minutes but it's not chemical it's Anthocyanin responsible for red colour which reacts with high alkaline water. You may use baking soda,apple cide vinegar diluted with RO Water for cleansing vegetables
7.0 truthfully but 7.4 is neutral .. anything above that is alkaline (im a previous cpo pool inspector/cleaner) anything below 7.4 that is acidic but I would try to go a tad lower but 7.5 is okay as long as it has the minerals
Thank you for shining light on many fads that people are getting involved with. My take on electrifying water is the possible problem of sintering. For example, when colloidal silver is made, two silver wires are immersed in water and a current is passed between the wires. When the electrons leave the wire and go into the water, some silver atoms "sinter" off and enter the water with the electron current. This creates a so-called "gas" of silver atoms in the water, because the silver atoms are free and not clumped in a crystal form. At one time, colloidal silver was used as an antiseptic for eye surgery. The absorption of the colloidal silver "gas" by the body is said to be 100%. Silver is not toxic to human cells. If they use stainless steel as an electrode to make alkaline water, what sinters off is iron, chromium, and nickel atoms. You have probably spoken to chromium and iron as supplements. However nickel is not a supplement, I believe it is a poison in the human body.
Hello Dr B. - I have just started watching your videos and the video about Alkaline water made sense of what I have been through. At the beginning of the month I rode to town with my mom to pay her Bills and she stopped by a church blessing box to put some canned food in but she couldn't put all the canned food in the blessing box because someone had put a couple of containers of the Alkaline drinking water on the shelf and she removed the water and put it in the back floor of her vehicle. While I was riding around with her paying bills it was very Hot that day and I just reached around and got one of the containers of Alkaline water and I opened it and took about 4 gulps of it to drink something. I have never tried it before and it had a very bad taste. I poured the remaining liquid out and didn't think about it anymore that day. The next morning my stomach was hurting really bad and I went into the bathroom to take a bowl movement and when I stood up from the toilet and turned to flush it I looked down in the toilet and got scared. My bowl movement looked dark grey and I thought that it didn't look right. The next morning when I had another bowl movement and looked into the toilet bowl I really got the shock of my life because my bowl movement was Black. I told my family doctor about it and she gave me a prescription for some medicine to heal up my stomach. I started the medicine but the Digested Blood was still in the toilet the next morning. I've had the Gastric Bypass surgery and each month I've had to go to the Cancer Center and get my B - 12 and my Iron levels checked and luckily I had an appointment to see the doctor a few days later and I went to him and told him what my bowl movements looked like and I asked him to do a scan of my Colon to see if there was Cancer present in my Colon. He didn't hesitate to line up the Cat Scan. I got that done and he said that it doesn't show any cancer in my colon. I told him that I had a issue a little while back with Polyps and had some removed. I've made a appointment with my Gastro doctor to do a Colonoscopy and also the upper scope to look for bleeding Polyps. I'm all set for next Monday morning to get the Colonoscopy done and the upper scope down into my stomach pouch. There was a lot of blood being passed in my bowl movements for 3weeks. Right now the bleeding is spotty and I told the Gastro doctor to find the problem and stop the bleeding. Cancer was the first thing I thought of when I seen the amount of blood present in my bowl movements. I believe that the doctor will find more than one polyp bleeding when I go to the hospital next Monday morning at 8am
Dr Berg , thank you so much , Every time I see your video, I learn something new and interesting, You are a God gifted man and a hidden gem, God Bless.
If you have an RO all you need is remi neraliztion filter and you can add machine like kangen to dissolve hydrogen gas and it will be fully optimized. So good news your 1 step closer to h2 water 💧 🙌
I’ve been drinking alkalized water (pH 9.5) that I get through my Japanese water ionizer machine for 10 years. I love it. It ionizes the minerals in the water for better absorption. So much better than drinking plastic bottled water or tap water whether filtered or not!!
Absolutely agree! Ionized water is AMAZING!!! I live Dr berg very much but totally disagree here. This sounds like a bug pharma discussion ri here 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻
Hi, Dr. Berg! I love your videos! I was wondering if there was any benefit to adding minerals to water instead of alkalinizing water electrically. What are your thoughts on this?
Guys be 50/50 , I have this machine, and it is fine, but you need to know when to drink alkaline water , it should be before food 30 mints or after food in 2 hours.
Thank you! I used to drink that stuff! That was years ago, though. It was expensive, I looked at the label and I _assumed_ alkaline water _was healthy._ Packaging does a lot of the lying for industry.
But, not everybody can do exactly what you did to get your water. And isn’t water in plastic come with “forever chemicals?” What are your suggestions? I have the aqua tru machine I paid $400 for it. I hope I don’t have to get rid of it. My question is what’s the best thing to get to drink?
I am going to mix up my distilled alkaline water with distilled water that has a neutral pH after watching your video. Too much of the wrong thing is never good, but I trust you will always give an honest assessment of health topics. The biggest takeaway is having a balance with what we drink/consume. Lots of issues with spring water companies misrepresenting their water sources as well, so I've been putting the bottled water companies I look at purchasing through lots of scrutiny to try and make the best decision I can. So many shocking things when you check into water companies!! I refuse to buy what I had before...
I have end stage renal disease. A new dr prescribed selenium bicarbonate pills due to me being too acidic. I didn't take them, and instead I started drinking orange juice, upped my lemon juice in water, and increased vegetable intake in general. My next blood test had better Ph. I was told to avoid orange juice by my first dialysis center, but now I know better. I still urinate though, so maybe that's why I don't have a problem with getting too much phosphorous from orange juice. i can't drink dr pepper though, or my phosphorous will be too high.
I started drinking water with baking soda in it throughout the day to help my chronic generalized pain that was incapacitating. I have a high pain threshold but it was severe pain and I don't want narcotics, which is what modern medicine had to offer me. I took it for probably a year, that time gave me the relief I needed to find other ways to manage my pain, without it, I just don't know what I would have done. It's not as strong a Motrin, which I didn't take because it's so tough on your body and I would have happily lived on Motrin. I've only seen one study about baking soda helping inflammatory pain, which makes sense, few scientific studies are done on cheap things we can use to help ourselves. Oh, guess I should say the study showed it helped people with chronic inflammatory pain, and suggested it for people with rheumatoid arthritis. I'm glad to be off of it now that I'm watching this, but wow, it saved me.
The one component that few discuss is the quality of municipal water and some well water. How do the card stack comparing a machine you described to drinking municipal water??
what if the water is coming from an ioniser and contains minerals as well?..you talked about only alkaline water in the video but also said that alkaline water from spring is good because it contains minerals..so what if the machine is ionising the water and also giving minerals just like natural water?
Distilled water is acidic. I measured it with my aciditiy tester for my aquarium. So I stopped drinking it. Tap water was closer to neutal or 7. My distiller put out 6.1 on the PH scale.
I love your channel and have learned a lot from you. I'm all about health. Thank you so much. I totally agree with everything you said with artificially alkalizing your water with ingredients like sodium bicarbonate (an ingredient in so many 'alkaline' bottled waters) but when electricity is used alone, it creates a condescend amount of ionic minerals which are bioavailable and easily flushed from the system if not needed. So many positive scientific studies on "Electrolyzed Reduced Water", i was curious if you had read them and noted the difference?
Seems reasonable but we dont live on a ball earth and there is much debate as to how thick our earth actually is because no one has been able to measure it or drill that deeply. Most groundwater and springs come from rainwater and they dry up without sufficient rain. One claim of the machines is that the water is broken away from clusters so that it is more readily absorbed by the cells but that might be hype. The Japanese have done most of the research and their scientist seem fairly good.
Salute to you, sir. 🫡 I was scrolling through the comments to see if there was anyone else who was aware of the fact that we do not live on a ball earth. You are correct - the deepest anyone has been able to drill is approx. 8 miles. There is absolutely no evidence for a molten iron core or what is past 8 miles. In fact, the alleged temperature of the imaginary molten iron core is beyond the curie point of iron, which means it would lose its magnetism. So there goes that magnetic core nonsense.
is there a otc water you would recommend? I have been drinking essentia for years now and feel the need to switch to fiji. is this a good brand? any help is appropriated. thank you…
I have 3 autoimmune disorders and when I follow that diet it completely puts them all in remission every time, so I think Dr. Berg’s opinion on the blood type diet is not correct.
This is all true for me. Drinking high PH water gives me gas and bloating every time. Also, it cramps my stomach too. Everyone should do what's best for them. For me, simply drinking purified tap water will suffice. I already have a very healthy balanced diet with veggies, good carbs, fruits, and lean meats for complete protein
I’ve been drinking ionized water for about 6yrs now and it feels great drinking it. The machine (Kangen Enagic) produces different water types or has levels of PH so You can change the alkalinity level to your preference. - The water taste better and i feel better. 💦 👌🏼
@@chrislee7877is it really good , I have been invited to attend saminar on kangen water , can you elaborate what effects you got after using this water ?
I don't know... we have used our Kangen machine for 10 years. Then the facet broke and it hasn't been hooked up for a while. Getting ready to hook it up and use it again... understanding out it works, when to use it and when not to...
Overall, alkaline water has certain health benefits because it contains minerals. But alkaline water is only beneficial if it’s natural and not created by a machine.
Great information as alwaysDr Berg. I’ve been distilling my own water for 5 years now. (It’s made a big difference in clearing brain fog- btw). But due to stomach acid, I was thinking of going more alkaline. (I will not now, thank you!) However, I was also thinking of trying apple cider vinegar, along with baking soda in the mornings. Do you think apple cider vinegar and baking soda is a good combination? And if yes or no, why or why not? Thank you. 😊
I was just looking at getting a water distiller. I have issues with brain fog and it's awesome to know that a making distilled water helps with that! I know there other benefits but having a clear mind and increased energy is a major plus! 😊
@@sandradavis6760 Apple cider vinegar is more beneficial at night before bed. It helps in repairing the body while you sleep. Try it, you'll wake up more refreshed
Japan have the highest rated of living longer i can accept some of your comments but i have such great results from the kangen water but truly i only trusted the machine from Japan listening to your video you are getting water from a well.beneath the earth but i am in Chicago and really we can not trust the water from our faucet nor what we buy so i can only go with what works for me and i have been drinking alkaline water for years but i do let my body break away and drink other water but i truly trust the Japan machine when it comes to alkaline water
I knew someone who absolutely swore by the Kangan alkaline water machine. She drank so much of that water - she ended up with impacted bowels, because she couldn’t properly digest her food, from turning her gut so alkaline.
Please do a video on reverse osomosis machines that take out elements like flouride and chlorine. But all elements are not harmful to the body and is the water beneficial for the body without any negative and positive elements that machines take out of the water?
Questions for Dr. Berg: Is there any way to not only test the alkaline/acidity of the water but also test our urine - on our own? Something over the counter? To see how we are without going to a doctor office?
My midwife tested my urine when I was pregnant and drinking alkaline water. She was surprised and said my urine was more alkaline than she usually sees. All that to say, you can buy the same pee strips a midwife or Dr's office uses to check the pH of your urine.
I LOVE Dr. Berg! Have been following him for years. I just wish his videos had louder sound. I realize my computer is old, but the sound seems ok on other peoples' videos.... Is anyone else having difficulty hearing him?
great information, thanks for sharing. I stopped drinking alkaline water awhile back, but when I bought it. I made sure it was natural. I wonder what you found on reverse osmosis and triple filtered water?? I started buying and drinking these types of water in most recent years.
I had been drinking from a Brita water pitcher for years but in 2022, I sought to upgrade to a countertop. after researching from a link reviewing various options and prices, I decided to try Alkaline water, 3 filter counter top unit - pH recharge. Friends told me the water taste nice. Under the heading of the company's booklet WHY ALKALINE WATER?, it says: "Unlike ionization machines using an electrical current, the naturally structured and ionized water from Invigorated Water's filters provides a long lasting effect. A key function of ionizing water is to change your waters current from positive to negative... The goal with Alkaline Water is not to make you Alkaline, etc. As we are constantly consuming food and drink that is acidic ... by drinking water that is pH 8 and above, our bodies can naturally heal...." Just thinking, acidic foods come from takeaways, readymade meals, and frequent eating out but I seldom eat junk foods. I have just bought new refills. Right now, I don't know what to think. Should I do a litmus test for a month? Read the reviews? ...
Was drinking my 7.4 PH water while watching this video. It has added minerals. Now, I'm wondering if I should get a more acidic brand, or just add lemon to it. It doesn't bother my stomach, but who knows if it's adversely affecting my body? Could be. Thanks, Dr.Berg, this is an important and informative video. ❤
Love your educational videos. I get my water from a local Spring, I have never consumed alkaline water because it has an electrical current running through it and it's not NATURAL. Nature wins❤❤
What about taking omeprazole for gurd? I have been on it for a long time. Is this bad for my body as well? What can I do to get off of this? My gurd was so bad that it would wake me up in the middle of the night with burning in my throat. The omeprazole has helped me so much, but I wish I knew of a natural way. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
I appreciate the clarity that you provide within your posts Dr. Berg especially the one for the most basic thing regarding the human existence or life on this planet the water that is part of us please continue to share and I will definitely continue to follow😅😊
Unfortunately Dr Berg is not speaking to some of the research papers. It has been shown to help people with gastro issues, it has shown to make mice live longer and reduce bone loss. I think there is a balance here that we haven't found out what is ideal. Would be nice if he spoke to the positive studies
Hi Dr Berg always watch your vlogs they are so well explained to make us aware how to nurture and look after our bodies as it’s our only vessel we have so why not keep it well oiled and maintained 😊I would love to see a vlog on chemical sprays on mass produced foods , although I grow as much food as possible ,but in winter i buy my salads from the store and on one of the package said “ not washed in chlorinated water” this got me thinking is my salads hydroponic not in soil or if sprayed if in soil? I always wash my food regardless but I have herd submerging in water with white vinegar can help remove any chemicals? Would love your thoughts ?😌

Dr. Berg i have been following you for a while I trust your videos and this one in particular catches my attention. My father is 83 years old he was healthy only medical issue is he only has one kidney due to cancer but he has maintained his levels and is not in renal failure stage some person sold my parents alkaline water system for their house about 2 months after the system was installed my father had a stroke. I don’t want to think that this water was the cause of this nightmare.
The kidneys release bicarbonate and hydrogen ions to regulate the pH of the blood. Kidneys are basically entirely responsible for the pH of the blood. So it is possible that someone with a limited kidney function like your father might have some issues with it. I hope he's okay.
You said that it can alter the ph of the stomach which is not good as you say. but in other videos you recommend ACV which also alter the acidity of the stomach. Why?
Doc, I know you don't need any more love letters but still, there is value in what you do that goes beyond good and true information. You are there for us in the middle of chaos and you are a point of stability. Much love.
the "we dont really know" when it comes to where spring water comes from would lead a searching mind into very, very deep waters and rabbit holes

Sharing Dr Berg notes:
Natural water from a well or spring is alkaline. It’s alkaline because it contains minerals like calcium and magnesium.
Many people believe that things that are acidic are unhealthy and things that are alkaline are healthy. But that’s not altogether true. We have a lot of different acids in our bodies that have many important functions.
We don’t need to worry about alkalizing the body. The body regulates the pH in different areas. For example, your blood should be slightly alkaline, but your stomach should be very acidic.
It’s possible to get alkaline water created by a machine that uses electricity to alter it instead of using minerals to alkalize it. If you drink alkaline water that's created artificially, you’re going to alter the pH in the stomach.
Potential side effects of alkaline water made artificially can include:
• Heartburn
• Acid reflux
• Gas
• GERD
• Infection
• Hair loss
• Heart arrhythmias
However, natural water, like alkaline spring water, has no side effects.
Alkalizing the stomach could lead to a deficiency in stomach acids. The stomach should be very acidic to help you break down protein, absorb minerals and vitamin B12, and kill pathogens. As we age, we lose stomach acid.
Antacids also weaken stomach acid. But, low stomach acid is the root cause of symptoms like heartburn, GERD, and acid reflux. Alkalizing the stomach instead of acidifying it could worsen these symptoms and lead to many other serious side effects.
I’ve found that I can digest better when I drink acidic water, like carbonated water-especially if I add a teaspoon of either apple cider vinegar or lemon juice.
Overall, alkaline water has certain health benefits because it contains minerals. But alkaline water is only beneficial if it’s natural and not created by a machine.
Thank you Dr Berg!!

My Enagic Kangen machine, I do put minerals, there is a knob I can pull out and pour a packet of minerals. Also my machine makes 2.5 - 11.5
I can drink 7.5 normal water. My machine makes 2.5 acid water to disinfect to clean counters and floors or make up to 11.5 alkaline water to wash vegetables. 🌻
How long u are using Kangen water machine,plz guide me about kangen water. Is it beneffiting u ?
@@lokendrabhati1808 I love my machine, purchased in 2016, one of my best investments besides my stainless steal waterless cookware. 🙂
@@lokendrabhati1808 I have my Kangan machine for over 10 years… There are different pH’s like 2.5 pH is very acidic. It will help you break down your food and also help you if you have food poisoning… it has helped my husband myself my family tremendously… You have to know how to work with it. You just don’t drink it all day long to alkaline your body the different pH you can clean your food with it. Cook with it make coffee with it, etc..
Hello Dr. Berg, I´m from Germany, so excuse my English. I bought a machine for filtering and alcalising water. As I asked them about this problem a year ago, they told me that the water doesn´t stay in the stomach, but goes direktly into the small intestin. And the water ist not buffered, like water with minerals. I´m now drinking it with pH of about 8-9. By the Ionisation it is enriched with H2 and so I think, it could be not so bad.
Rich in elactrons and micro cluster water molecules
Is the machine from enagic company for Alkaline water?😊
yes. In Germany it is called Aquion

QUESTION: is drinking baking soda and water beneficial? Thank you your information is amazing to help keep us body and mind healthy 😊
As covered before: www.youtube.com/@DrEricBergDC/search?query=baking%20soda
Some say drink it for reflux but I have pretty bad reflux and drinking it makes me very sick. 😢
Drinking baking soda is very bad as it will alter the stomach's ph.
My father drank baking soda and water every night, for indigestion/heart burn, and it worked for him. No side effects. Just a teaspoon in water.
@@dianasimplifiesYeah, the same thing happened to me when I tried it a few times for GERD. Nearly vomited every time. Too bad, as it worked great for my father.
Hello Dr. Berg. I love your videos because they are informative and helpful. I recently purchased a Kangen water machine and I am attempting to assess how my body feels differently after two months. The purchase was not inexpensive and the time has passed to return the machine. I wish I had seen your video before purchasing this very expensive machine.
Understandable to have divided opinion after watching. But that is truly a life changing machine. I still plan owning one. Know too many people who had life saving benefits.
Hey Cheryl! Someone in comments says you can adjust the ph so maybe try lowering it? I wouldn't throw it out or anything.
Agreed I bought mine last year and will be paying mine off for the next 3 yrs . Wish i would have seen this as well.
I own a Kangen machine as well , I’m not a distributor. I’m an end user and I will say this kangen water isn’t just “alkaline” water , it’s hydrogen molecular water which is a lot different! Reason why Japanese hospitals use them.
I agree with dr Berg some of our organs should be acidic , but like I said Kangen is hydrogen molecular water . And there’s benefits in drinking hydrogen molecular water.
Great info - I teach a class on pH and the topic is very confusing to students (who are taught they should be eating an all alkaline diet) - it's much more complicated than that ;). I appreciate your video as I share it with my students :). HCL is paramount!
I had colicky pelvic pain for 3 days, even in a fasted state. On the 4th day, I fasted and drank a 1 liter water bottle of alkaline water (store bought). No more pain. Thoughts?
This is temporary, and will cause problems, Best water is distilled and only Raw Vegan foods always..
Hi Sir, I am from India.
I was using artificial alkaline membrane since 2 years in my water purifier to reduce acidity. However drinking that water increased acid reflux, gas, indigestion problems, small intestines problems, ibd, autoimmune disorders. Also Started feeling allergies like nerve weakness, muscle twitching immediately after drinking that water. Since then i was trying to investigate what was causing issue in my body. This video is a life saver for me. I Uninstalled that alkaline membrane and started drinking RO purified normal ph water. All the problems mentioned above are gone from day1. Hats off and many thanks to you. You are a life saver.
Hey I am also from india you may use KNL NF membrane that reduce your water tds at level that you want , like NF 80 Reduces ur water tds by 80% . In ndia healthy water tds must be in range 150 to 250 in order to have minerals in water.
I found out about ionizer today. It's not same as using an alkaline candle in your purifier. But I'm not sure if Dr Berg is also including it in his don't buy list. According to a video I watched today, ionizer turns into water similar to water from Gangotri. But I think if we use a TDS controller and set it to 150 to 200, we can get alkaline water. Now it will be a mix of acidic and alkaline water both. But having that kind of TDS and still have Fluoride and Arsenic in it, is it worth it? As these things only get removed in RO, not if it bypasses Ro and is filtered through UF and UV only.
@@Soul-yx9if you must use NF membrane in place of RO membrane
@@lokendrabhati1808 Ok thanks. I will read about it. You must watch video on Health OPD channel posted ten days ago about Ionizer and let me know what you think.
@@Soul-yx9if I watched a small portion, I clear you some concepts regarding water ionizers. Most of the water ionizers demo claims water clustering by tea bag demo or turmeric demo but no such things exists. Turmeric becomes red in alkaline medium that's the reason not micro clustering , use baking soda in normal tap water and put turmeric it will turn red. Micro cluster is a false marketing strategy.
In Green tea bag green tea also works as natural ph indicator
One more thing that kangen demonstrator uses puting tomato, red onion and pomegranate in kangen 11.5 ph water and they shows its chemical when dipped in water for 30 minutes but it's not chemical it's Anthocyanin responsible for red colour which reacts with high alkaline water.
You may use baking soda,apple cide vinegar diluted with RO Water for cleansing vegetables
What is the alkaline ph we should drink? I see 7.5, 8.5, 10 ph...what is the actual safe level to drink? And should you drink it everyday?
7.0 truthfully but 7.4 is neutral .. anything above that is alkaline (im a previous cpo pool inspector/cleaner) anything below 7.4 that is acidic but I would try to go a tad lower but 7.5 is okay as long as it has the minerals
"...the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up..." "...when He strengthened the fountains of the deep,"
great video, I have been searching for this topic on your channel and today you posted it!
Thank you for shining light on many fads that people are getting involved with.
My take on electrifying water is the possible problem of sintering. For example, when colloidal silver is made, two silver wires are immersed in water and a current is passed between the wires. When the electrons leave the wire and go into the water, some silver atoms "sinter" off and enter the water with the electron current. This creates a so-called "gas" of silver atoms in the water, because the silver atoms are free and not clumped in a crystal form. At one time, colloidal silver was used as an antiseptic for eye surgery. The absorption of the colloidal silver "gas" by the body is said to be 100%. Silver is not toxic to human cells.
If they use stainless steel as an electrode to make alkaline water, what sinters off is iron, chromium, and nickel atoms. You have probably spoken to chromium and iron as supplements.
However nickel is not a supplement, I believe it is a poison in the human body.

Dr Berg, Kangen water is it safe to drink
Thank you very much Dr. Berg!
This is very important topic and we learn from you a lot in each video you make.
Hello Dr B. - I have just started watching your videos and the video about Alkaline water made sense of what I have been through. At the beginning of the month I rode to town with my mom to pay her Bills and she stopped by a church blessing box to put some canned food in but she couldn't put all the canned food in the blessing box because someone had put a couple of containers of the Alkaline drinking water on the shelf and she removed the water and put it in the back floor of her vehicle. While I was riding around with her paying bills it was very Hot that day and I just reached around and got one of the containers of Alkaline water and I opened it and took about 4 gulps of it to drink something. I have never tried it before and it had a very bad taste. I poured the remaining liquid out and didn't think about it anymore that day. The next morning my stomach was hurting really bad and I went into the bathroom to take a bowl movement and when I stood up from the toilet and turned to flush it I looked down in the toilet and got scared. My bowl movement looked dark grey and I thought that it didn't look right. The next morning when I had another bowl movement and looked into the toilet bowl I really got the shock of my life because my bowl movement was Black. I told my family doctor about it and she gave me a prescription for some medicine to heal up my stomach. I started the medicine but the Digested Blood was still in the toilet the next morning. I've had the Gastric Bypass surgery and each month I've had to go to the Cancer Center and get my B - 12 and my Iron levels checked and luckily I had an appointment to see the doctor a few days later and I went to him and told him what my bowl movements looked like and I asked him to do a scan of my Colon to see if there was Cancer present in my Colon. He didn't hesitate to line up the Cat Scan. I got that done and he said that it doesn't show any cancer in my colon. I told him that I had a issue a little while back with Polyps and had some removed. I've made a appointment with my Gastro doctor to do a Colonoscopy and also the upper scope to look for bleeding Polyps. I'm all set for next Monday morning to get the Colonoscopy done and the upper scope down into my stomach pouch. There was a lot of blood being passed in my bowl movements for 3weeks. Right now the bleeding is spotty and I told the Gastro doctor to find the problem and stop the bleeding. Cancer was the first thing I thought of when I seen the amount of blood present in my bowl movements. I believe that the doctor will find more than one polyp bleeding when I go to the hospital next Monday morning at 8am
Hope all goes well with your health
That wasn’t alkaline water sir u we’re poisoned

Magnificent video Any recommendations for counter top reverse osmosis water filter
If you have an RO all you need is remi neraliztion filter and you can add machine like kangen to dissolve hydrogen gas and it will be fully optimized. So good news your 1 step closer to h2 water 💧 🙌
I’ve been drinking alkalized water (pH 9.5) that I get through my Japanese water ionizer machine for 10 years. I love it. It ionizes the minerals in the water for better absorption. So much better than drinking plastic bottled water or tap water whether filtered or not!!
Love Kangen water
Thank you for your wonderful scientific opinion
Do you feel good and energetic?
I too bought this one. But as of now feeling a bit acidic
Absolutely agree! Ionized water is AMAZING!!! I live Dr berg very much but totally disagree here. This sounds like a bug pharma discussion ri here 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻
Much gratitude for sharing all of this crucial information and clearing up so many misconceptions. You are helping so many to heal and get well.
Hi, Dr. Berg! I love your videos! I was wondering if there was any benefit to adding minerals to water instead of alkalinizing water electrically. What are your thoughts on this?
Hello. That's good actually. Please see here: th-cam.com/video/JAhvCuJNu3I/w-d-xo.html

So, do you recommend natural alkaline/mineral water?
Other than vitamin C, antioxidants and fasting, how do you personally keep your skin so bright
So which water brands should I drink?
Guys be 50/50 , I have this machine, and it is fine, but you need to know when to drink alkaline water , it should be before food 30 mints or after food in 2 hours.
Don’t share everything. No jealousy, no hate.
Thank you! I used to drink that stuff! That was years ago, though. It was expensive, I looked at the label and I _assumed_ alkaline water _was healthy._ Packaging does a lot of the lying for industry.
But, not everybody can do exactly what you did to get your water. And isn’t water in plastic come with “forever chemicals?” What are your suggestions? I have the aqua tru machine I paid $400 for it. I hope I don’t have to get rid of it. My question is what’s the best thing to get to drink?
Is it ok to add Celtic salt , baking soda and boron to water? It’s trending on social media but I’m skeptical 🤨
I am going to mix up my distilled alkaline water with distilled water that has a neutral pH after watching your video. Too much of the wrong thing is never good, but I trust you will always give an honest assessment of health topics. The biggest takeaway is having a balance with what we drink/consume. Lots of issues with spring water companies misrepresenting their water sources as well, so I've been putting the bottled water companies I look at purchasing through lots of scrutiny to try and make the best decision I can. So many shocking things when you check into water companies!! I refuse to buy what I had before...
Distilled water is very acidic and oxidizing. Be careful
I have end stage renal disease. A new dr prescribed selenium bicarbonate pills due to me being too acidic. I didn't take them, and instead I started drinking orange juice, upped my lemon juice in water, and increased vegetable intake in general. My next blood test had better Ph. I was told to avoid orange juice by my first dialysis center, but now I know better. I still urinate though, so maybe that's why I don't have a problem with getting too much phosphorous from orange juice. i can't drink dr pepper though, or my phosphorous will be too high.
oranges/orange juice are high in potassium,dark colas are high in phosphorus.Both are not recommended in high amounts for ESRD patients
I started drinking water with baking soda in it throughout the day to help my chronic generalized pain that was incapacitating. I have a high pain threshold but it was severe pain and I don't want narcotics, which is what modern medicine had to offer me. I took it for probably a year, that time gave me the relief I needed to find other ways to manage my pain, without it, I just don't know what I would have done. It's not as strong a Motrin, which I didn't take because it's so tough on your body and I would have happily lived on Motrin.
I've only seen one study about baking soda helping inflammatory pain, which makes sense, few scientific studies are done on cheap things we can use to help ourselves. Oh, guess I should say the study showed it helped people with chronic inflammatory pain, and suggested it for people with rheumatoid arthritis.
I'm glad to be off of it now that I'm watching this, but wow, it saved me.
The one component that few discuss is the quality of municipal water and some well water. How do the card stack comparing a machine you described to drinking municipal water??
what if the water is coming from an ioniser and contains minerals as well?..you talked about only alkaline water in the video but also said that alkaline water from spring is good because it contains minerals..so what if the machine is ionising the water and also giving minerals just like natural water?
Awesome video Dr. Berg people must understand. In all situations there must be balance.
Happy health to everyone
Thank you thank you thank you Dr. Berg! Now it's time for me to apply this info into my life!

Hello Dr Berg what's the best acids to take to fix this?
Hello. Apple cider vinegar can really help. Please see this video: th-cam.com/video/qTzxfoL82n8/w-d-xo.html
Dr Berg what is your take on Kangen water?
Hmm this was really interesting, thank you. So tips on what to consume to help restore your natural balance?
Is adding a little salt to water and lemon good? Or vinegar? or what foods / drink
Distilled water is acidic. I measured it with my aciditiy tester for my aquarium. So I stopped drinking it. Tap water was closer to neutal or 7. My distiller put out 6.1 on the PH scale.
I love your channel and have learned a lot from you. I'm all about health. Thank you so much. I totally agree with everything you said with artificially alkalizing your water with ingredients like sodium bicarbonate (an ingredient in so many 'alkaline' bottled waters) but when electricity is used alone, it creates a condescend amount of ionic minerals which are bioavailable and easily flushed from the system if not needed. So many positive scientific studies on "Electrolyzed Reduced Water", i was curious if you had read them and noted the difference?
Thank you so much Dr Berg for this.
Most welcome!
You are an amazing man Dr Berg thank you for your wealth of knowledge.
I appreciate your comment! Glad to help!
I got alkaline water toxicity once- I drank too much alkaline water and felt absolutely drunk. I vomited, felt dizzy and impaired cognition.
Seems reasonable but we dont live on a ball earth and there is much debate as to how thick our earth actually is because no one has been able to measure it or drill that deeply. Most groundwater and springs come from rainwater and they dry up without sufficient rain.
One claim of the machines is that the water is broken away from clusters so that it is more readily absorbed by the cells but that might be hype. The Japanese have done most of the research and their scientist seem fairly good.
Salute to you, sir. 🫡 I was scrolling through the comments to see if there was anyone else who was aware of the fact that we do not live on a ball earth. You are correct - the deepest anyone has been able to drill is approx. 8 miles. There is absolutely no evidence for a molten iron core or what is past 8 miles. In fact, the alleged temperature of the imaginary molten iron core is beyond the curie point of iron, which means it would lose its magnetism. So there goes that magnetic core nonsense.

I have 3 autoimmune disorders and when I follow that diet it completely puts them all in remission every time, so I think Dr. Berg’s opinion on the blood type diet is not correct.
This is all true for me. Drinking high PH water gives me gas and bloating every time. Also, it cramps my stomach too. Everyone should do what's best for them. For me, simply drinking purified tap water will suffice. I already have a very healthy balanced diet with veggies, good carbs, fruits, and lean meats for complete protein

great information, thanks for sharing. I stopped drinking alkaline water awhile back, but when I bought it. I made sure it was natural. I wonder what you found on reverse osmosis and triple filtered water?? I started buying and drinking these types of water in most recent years.
I had been drinking from a Brita water pitcher for years but in 2022, I sought to upgrade to a countertop. after researching from a link reviewing various options and prices, I decided to try Alkaline water, 3 filter counter top unit - pH recharge.
Friends told me the water taste nice.
Under the heading of the company's booklet WHY ALKALINE WATER?, it says: "Unlike ionization machines using an electrical current, the naturally structured and ionized water from Invigorated Water's filters provides a long lasting effect.
A key function of ionizing water is to change your waters current from positive to negative...
The goal with Alkaline Water is not to make you Alkaline, etc.
As we are constantly consuming food and drink that is acidic ... by drinking water that is pH 8 and above, our bodies can naturally heal...."
Just thinking, acidic foods come from takeaways, readymade meals, and frequent eating out but I seldom eat junk foods.
I have just bought new refills. Right now, I don't know what to think. Should I do a litmus test for a month? Read the reviews? ...
If you add lemon or apple cider vinegar to the high alkaline water, will it balance it so it is not so alkaline?

Dr. Berg i have been following you for a while I trust your videos and this one in particular catches my attention. My father is 83 years old he was healthy only medical issue is he only has one kidney due to cancer but he has maintained his levels and is not in renal failure stage some person sold my parents alkaline water system for their house about 2 months after the system was installed my father had a stroke. I don’t want to think that this water was the cause of this nightmare.
The kidneys release bicarbonate and hydrogen ions to regulate the pH of the blood. Kidneys are basically entirely responsible for the pH of the blood. So it is possible that someone with a limited kidney function like your father might have some issues with it. I hope he's okay.
was it ever figured out? sorry to hear about this.
You said that it can alter the ph of the stomach which is not good as you say. but in other videos you recommend ACV which also alter the acidity of the stomach. Why?
