FM, you are talking just to avoid felling asleep, don't you.
Everything that we consume is super-acidic - starting with the coffee (pH 3.4), apple juice (4.8), black tea (3.5), beer (4.3), milk (5.9), soda water (6.3), coke (4.5) and other soft drinks, etc. There is no chance of getting overalkilized if you 'eat and drink as usual'.
Everything that we breathe is also highly acidic - increased CO2 in the air (ppm 400+), NOx, SO2, etc. ... not to mention the other oxidizing agents - like fluorine, chlorine, chlorite, cholrate and perchlorate and the other halogen compounds, hypochlorite, hexavalent chromium compounds, DPS - to name just a few.
All the sauna and steam bath we get are also demineralising and dealkalising the body.
Believe it or not, but virtually there is no chance of getting overalkalised by drinking mineral water only ... and drinking over 3 litres per day of any water is not entirely safe.

I am very glad for you that you are drinking raw milk. You can outperform yourself by eating raw mince meat as well.

FM, you are are very good with the ads performances ... and with the story telling of various fables, but can you tell us, the simple mortal: do you really know what you are doing?
If you eat tomatoes, genetically modified with tiger genes, and some day the nails of your grandchildren become folding will you be able to explain the exact mechanics by means of which that has happened?
