you shoulda seen my kidney surgeon's face the other day ... when he asked if I was drinking plenty of water, I said " yup, easily a gallon a day, but, my tapwater pH is 4.5, is that still OK ? " ... he just stares at me, LOL :wtf:... he says " you KNOW your tapwater pH ? " ... then, he looked at my 'labs', and says " your urine is 6.5, so that looks good :thumbsup: " ... I said, "first time I ever hit 6.5 on the first try " ... (my doctor isn't real 'sure' about me, ya know ?) ... :S3:
