Yes. I was relunctant initally at the thought of buying this machine. HOwever, after drinking it for weeks straight, I had to have this machine no matter what the cost. let me first tell you that balancing my ph level and removing excess acidic waste, helped to finally rid me of a major skin disorder that no doctor could explain! I now have eliminations frequently (3 times/day) and it has helped me lose weight without even exercising. Please don't knock it until you've tried it consistently! Candida thrives in an over acidic body - removing this acidity by drinking Alkaline Water may be the very thing to help you!!!
