Another way of looking at the idea, may be that by adding it to what one may be choosing to drink or eat, that in case what one may have choosen to eat or drink may be short of enough Alkaline Minerals carrying enough Oxygen in the First place, that this addition may Better Help the Digestion in the Digestive system ?
Or, if one was Lacking in enough Oxygen in the Digestive system to allow the Proper Areobic Bacteria to Live and work on Digesting your food, then this addition at this time may be Beneficial !
Not everything may be as it may First seem to be !
