So, what is the pH of purified water? It’s roughly neutral to slightly acidic, which is perfectly safe for drinking, cooking, and making your coffee taste mildly disappointed. Don’t let the numbers freak you out. Your body is an amazing machine that handles pH fluctuations better than a sports car handles potholes.
Next time someone tries to sell you a $50 water bottle with a “pH balance” sticker, just smile and nod. Then pour yourself a glass of cheap purified water, add a lemon slice (which is acidic, by the way), and enjoy. Your body won’t know the difference, but your wallet will thank you.
Now drink up. And try not to analyze it too much—unless your fish starts judging you.
