Rolf G.: After a blood gas analysis, my doctor told me that my blood buffers were perfectly fine, that I wasn't in the least acidic and that I didn't need to drink alkaline water.
Then he probably measured your level of standard bicarbonate in your blood, which for you as a man should be 22,5-26,9 mmol/L. Bicarbonate or hydrogen carbonate, HCO3, is the most important buffer for maintaining blood pH. If the reading was below the norm, the doctor would certainly not give you alkaline water to drink, but would instead drip a blood buffer solution into the vein to stabilize acidosis (hyperacidity).
You don't drink alkaline activated water to combat a manifest acidosis that is already visible in the blood; it would not be sufficiently buffered for this, even if it were made from very mineral-rich water. After all, an adult has around 5 liters of blood in their circulation - if this is acidic, you would have to drink a lot to correct it. Alkaline activated water is best drunk in “subclinical” acidosis, i.e. before serious disorders occur.
According to a word from Dr. med. Walter Irlacher as a “perpetuum mobile of deacidification”. Of course he only means that in a figurative sense. When consumed regularly, the many bases in it ensure that acidity cannot build up, especially in the tissue fluid, which would ultimately be so strong that it would acidify 5 liters of blood. Alkaline activated water is unsuitable as an emergency medication for hyperacidity. But it is the ideal replacement for acidic drinks.
Especially with high standard bicarbonate values, you should check whether there is perhaps chronic tissue acidification. Sometimes the blood “hoards” buffer substances in order to be prepared for strong acid attacks, such as in extreme cases during binge drinking.
Blood gas analysis
Your doctor may be interested in comparative blood gas analyzes before and 45 minutes after drinking 1 liter of alkaline activated water. In my experience, some core values regularly improve, as your doctor can see in the example below. Maybe he'll convince himself of its effect and recommend it to one or another patient, as more and more doctors are doing around the world.
