You are being lied to about reverse osmosis or filtered water

The pH level of distilled water is 7.0 because it's neutral. It's not true what a "renowned online doctor" says that distilled water can turn acidic by absorbing carbon dioxide from the air. The air is composed of 78.9% nitrogen, 20.95% oxygen, 0.93% argon and only a very small 0.038% carbon dioxide and the balance is the other minor elements. If distilled water would absorb these elements, why not absorb oxygen and we can say we need the oxygen in our body. But he said that the distilled water absorbs CO2 that makes the water acidic. Not true! In any case, these elements have no pH value to them, so we cannot say that they would turn the water acidic.

Danger of drinking alkaline water
I want to reiterate the danger of drinking alkaline water. I see many of my clients receive healing through drinking many liters of fresh fruit/vegetable juices daily through juice fasting/feasting.
 
On the other hand, there are a few who reported being severely sick after drinking many liters of alkaline water. This is an alkalosis condition. Note that ionized alkaline water often measure about 9-10 on the pH value chart which is highly alkaline. Some of the symptoms of alkalosis are: diarrhea, stomach cramps, vomiting and severe headache. In severe cases, brain chemistry is altered that leads to confusion, disorientation, hand tremor and muscles twitching.
 
Do your own research, think logically, and make your own informed decision about what's best for you.

PH Food Chart

Alkalizing the body is probably the best thing that a person can do to ensure good health and well being.  There is a direct relationship between a person's pH and the oxygen content of his blood, and a tiny change in pH can have dramatic effects upon a person's oxygen intake.  An alkaline body pH will prevent diseases, and will cure existing ones by exponentially boosting a body's oxygen intake.  As a general rule, pathogens and cancers cannot survive in an oxygen-rich, alkaline environment.
Alkalizing the body is not an easy task for most people, but the benefits are many.  This chart shows the effects of various foods on the human body.  As you may notice, the initial pH of the food is irrelevant.  For instance, while lemons and limes are naturally acidic fruits, they have a strong alkalizing effect upon the body when processed in digestion.
For more information on the benefits of alkalinity, read The Link Between Body pH and Disease. You should also watch our must see documentary, The Cancer Report.
We cannot fairly give credit to any person or group for the chart below, because it was compiled from, and verified with, dozens of sources.  We welcome any verifiable information that could be used to expand this chart.  Unfortunately, it appears that most foods have not yet been through the mineral testing required to definitively ascertain their pH-shifting properties.
