Recently, I've finally switched out the packs of mineral water I used to get. (bc it has all kinds of crap in it, glyphosate likely being one of them. When I asked the manufacturer, they said they weren't allowed to share testreports but that "it was all within range".)
However, I noticed that my body doesn't like the acidity/lower ph of the RO water.
So, I have a waterjar with maifan mineral stones in it. That sometimes works (depending on where I'm at in my cycle and the mineralbalance). I've also experimenten with adding a pinch of sea salt to the water, but it seems the water just doesn't absorb correctly into the colon and move waste out (regardless of fiber).
It also seems that lately I've been needing high amounts of certain minerals to have even the slightest bowel movement.
I've read that lower ph water (below 7) doesn't absorb nutrients well and absorb into the colon. RO water has a ph of 5-6 and the water I used to buy 7.5.
How do I raise the ph of the water without using mineral drops? (which have some minerals in it which I don't want.)
I know baking soda and/or potassium bicarbonate can do this, but I'm worried it'll lower my stomach acid too much/interfering with digestion.
