pH (potential of Hydrogen)

What are the main characteristics of alkaline water that make it good for your health? The answer we gave over many years was a negative ORP or Oxidation Reduction Potential. We no longer say this, but it’s important to understand ORP before you ca...

Buffered vs. Unbuffered The difference between buffer and unbuffered is that buffer is a solution used to stabilize the pH (acidity) of a liquid while unbuffered is whose pH is not stabilized with a buffer. The human body is buffered, so is pool wat...

We're happy to see you've ordered our AlkaWay pH test kit. This short video summarizes the best way to use it. We know many people are using it for important health reasons and perhaps to assess whether an alkaline diet and water may be of assista...

How to Perform a Urine pH Test To perform a urine test with the AlkaWay test strips, The test strips use a pH-sensitive, colour-coded test strip to reveal your body pH balance status. Do NOT place test strips in your mouth. To perform a urine test;...

General Chemicals and solutions are often classified as being acidic, basic or neutral. These properties are determined by the pH scale, which ranges from 0 to 14. Low pH values are considered acidic, high values are called basic and values around ...

pH vs. Alkalinity It's important to understand pH and alkalinity are not the same things. Alkalinity is a measurement of the concentration of minerals in a solution (buffering material) while pH is measuring the hydrogen potential. Alkalinity require...

The Positive: A water ionizer is an electrically powered kitchen appliance that employs the process of electrolysis to split ordinary tap water into ‘alkaline’ and acidic water. Ionized alkaline water is claimed to promote better hydration, n...

There's a lot of confusion about alkaline water vs. pH Water. Most people just think one is another way of saying the other, but this just not so. Alkaline Water This is water that contains alkaline minerals. It's a bit of a 'hit' at the moment in h...
