Can Alkaline Water Help Fight Parasite Infections?
A study from South Korea found that mice infected with a type of parasite had fewer parasites and a stronger immune response when they drank alkaline water. The study suggests that alkaline water might have benefits for humans too, but more research is needed. Alkaline water is made by passing water through an electrolysis machine, which changes the pH level of the water.
