Protect Your Health: Avoiding Acidic Drinking Water
Drinking water that is too acidic can have negative impacts on human health. The pH scale measures the acidity or alkalinity of a liquid on a scale of 0 to 14. If the pH level of water is below 6.5, it is considered acidic.
The consumption of acidic water on a regular basis can lead to dental erosion, as the acid content can damage the enamel on teeth, leading to tooth decay and sensitivity. Acidic water can also irritate the digestive system, leading to stomach issues such as acid reflux and stomach pains. Long-term exposure to acidic water can also lead to mineral deficiencies, as acidic water can leach minerals such as calcium and magnesium from the body, potentially causing long-term health issues.
