Exactly. There is absolutely no health advantage to drinking alkaline water, that is complete quackery.

The only thing that will change if you drink a large amount of alkaline fluid -- be it water or anything else -- is the pH of your urine.

There are, however, a number of practical disadvantages to having alkaline water come out of one's tap, as I know only too well sad.png (limescale build up...hard to wash dishes as poor soap lather, can't rinse all the soap off. spots on glasses etc etc etc).
