Just what I needed!
I’ve trained in the gym for over 20 years and during this time I have tried to look after my body the best I can by eating the “right foods” and taking the best supplements.
Over those years, I was always missing “something” in my diet and I struggled with health issues like cramping/fatigue/GERD.
I tried countless times to look after my hydration but all I ended up doing was spending money and kept getting the same results.
That was until now.
Since drinking Alka Powers Active PH9+,

This is the best bottled water on the market
This is by far the best bottled water I've ever had. Completely clean taste and the company is ethical. I always feel hydrated after drinking this product, as opposed to alot of other brands of water.

Drink water has helped my health condition for the better!
I have Ankylosing spondylitis and this condition has limited my mobility and occasionally gives me unbearable pain. For the last few months, I have consistently been drinking only Alka Power every day and I have seen an improvement in my daily life. It has helped with my body's inflammation, allowing me to move with ease. I usually move like an elderly person...
I am very happy with the outcome drinking water has given me and look forward to painless winter!

At last, bottled water that is worth the cost.
I have always been sceptical when buying bottled water. Why buy it when I can get it straight out of the tap, water is water, right? How wrong I have been. My wife started purchasing Alka Power some time ago, so I thought I would see what all the fuss was about. The first thing I noticed was the taste, natural, crisp and very refreshing. I feel more hydrated during the day and I am starting to feel the benefits from drinking this great tasting water.
Thanks so much to the team at Alka Power.

A lot of questions
A lot of things does not add up so I tried to send an email to Steve Pettaras but he hasn't replied.
But he does rely on here apparently so here we go.
Hi, I have a few questions about your water,
First would you be able to point me towards the source for the claim about alkaline water detoxifying pancreas.
How it oxygenates the blood and affect energy levels?
If blood pH has to stay in a 7.35-7.45 pH range, and acid forming food is bad cause the body has to work harder to raise the pH, wouldn't going the complete other way have the same...Read more
effect and force the body to fight harder to not go over 7.45 ? Can you point me towards studies that show that the body pulls "minerals like magnesium and calcium from your bones, teeth, and organs to neutralise the acid, placing undue pressure on your kidneys and liver."?Purchased in September 2019 at Woolworths for $3.60.

My go to water when exercising
I have been drinking Alka Power water for years, particularly when I am exercising or on a long multi-day hike. I find I don't need to drink as much and I stay well hydrated.
It is an added bonus that it is affordable and readily available at my local Woolworths.

The claim that it is PH 9-10, simply is not true.
I have tested 2 bottles of this after buying is regularly and just trusting, and each one had a pH of 7. It is very expensive and so I tested to see if I was getting my money's worth.

Hi Gynne, We would like to know how you tested our ionic alkaline spring water. As you would not know, we test our pH during our production runs as our alkalinity is raised naturally unlike most other... Read more
alkaline waters.. We also have several high end laboratory digital pH meters on site and test. Bottles are sent away to an independent NATA accredited laboratory for analysis as well. You can review these reports on our website, this is part of our quality procedures. Please send the batch number and photo of how you claim to achieve a pH of 7. I am happy to to do a video opening and testing that batch for you as we retain several bottles with each production run. In closing, I can assure you that Alka Power is not very expensive as it's not just a bottled water. Regards Team Alka Power... An Australian Family Business..Say what you like, what I tested was not alkaline. I used a thing that I have bought and used to make bottled water alkaline and it worked. Just to check, I re-tested your water with the same strips and got a PH of 7. Yours is a scam.

Felt better right away
Thought I would try this as I have been feeling unwell lately. Within a few hours I perked right up and my stomach felt 100% better.
I don’t know everything there is to know about pH and science but what I do know is that I feel better. Plus the taste is really awesome.

False advertising - pH not >8
I work in a research laboratory, and decided to check the pH using our pH meter (Hanna instruments Laboratory Research Grade Benchtop pH/mV meter) because water with a pH of 9 sounded ridiculous. I wasn't surprised when the reading came back at 7.9. False advertising. Don't waste your money.
Secondly, what is the point of alkaline water anyway? The second it hits your stomach acid that 'alkaline' water is no more... Just take some antacids if you have stomach issues.

pH not as stated
I am a chemist who works at a pharmaceutical company, the science and the dietetics behind this product is good and I do think it tastes nicer than tap water as you don’t get that fluoride taste. However out of curiosity I opened the bottle this morning and put a potion into a small container and tested pH, I used a pH meter that is calibrated daily and got a pH of 7.9. This really disappointed me after reading the reviews, I am keen to try this again with a different bottle however when the label claims a ph of 9-10 I would expect consistency between bottles.

Facts matter
I know a fair bit about water because we sale mineral waters in Europe (natural springs). Below are factual reasons why Alka Power is good (unlike others):
1- These guys do not hide that Alka Power has 158mg/L alkalinity (not to be confused with pH). That is a very decent buffering capacity to neutralise acids. This alone is in my view more important than pH itself.
If you see alkaline waters that do not show alkalinity information in mg/L do not bother to buy. Alka Power is honest and in practical terms you need 158mg/L of pure acid befo...Read more

Changed my Life
I will tell anyone who listens the drastic change alkaline water has made on my life. Since drinking Alka Power, my health has rapidly improved, I have felt such a huge change in my energy & my hydration has done a backflip. I used to drink 5 litres of tap water a day and was never hydrated, in the last year and a half of drinking alka power, I now drink 2 litres a day & feel more hydrated than ever. Thank you Alka Power Team!!

Beat your gout.
I have terrible gout in both my feet, if I don't take a daily Allopurinol pill the gout flares up severely. I have now been five weeks without a single Allopurinol pill having substituted Alka Power ionised alkaline water for the pills. My high blood pressure has fallen and I seem to have a lot more energy. My only problem is that I am moving from a town with both Coles and Woollies toba town with neither - where to get my All a Power?

Love Me Some Ionic Alkaline Water
I love this. I eat crap and my body is always on the acidic side. I also have a lot of phlegm and drinking a lot of tapwater does nothing to dislodge it. One week on Alka Power's Ionic Alkaline Water from Wollies, I'm coughing late and night and early in the morning and chunks of yellowy phlegm pop out. That cannot be good for me. Mucus and rubbish and all the bad stuff I eat. Its $25 for 9 bottles which I order through work when they do the shopping. I keep them at my desk. For 5 days, I drink 1 bottle a day. I remember earlier reading somewhe...Read more
re about cancer and alkaline environments, that the two don't get on that well. Anything to keep my body in alkaline state is good and also check out the research the guys at AlkaPower go through. Its an Aussie company and they know their thing. As in they're not overseas manufacturing gluttons out to make a buck and leaving without paying taxes. #DoYourselfAFavour #AlkaPowerSimilar opinion?

Tastes like tap water
Have tried two bottles, bought from Woolies. Like others have said...it does taste like tap water IMO. If it doesn't to others, that is your opinion. I can also tell the different textures of water and this water has a very 'plastic' taste to me. Did I feel better after drinking it....no. Did I feel more 'hydrated' as opposed to drinking other types of water....no. If this stuff makes you feel better go for it, for me, it did not.

Better late than never! I'm not interested in hearing you spout off why you think your water is what you think it is. Tap water with bicarb soda tastes better IMO.

Disappointed
Tastes like tap water. I'd like to test an alkaline strip in it- I would assume it would not come up as 9-10 pH.

We test our alkaline water everytime we bottle and the pH always reads around 9.3 to 9.7. I suggest you get a proper pH tester as litmus strips are not designed to test high pH alkaline water. Alka Power certainly does not tase like tap water.

Hello Janelle, The pink bottle is supporting NBCF the alkaline water is the same as our current clue bottles. Coles ranges Pete Evans alkaline pH10 alkaline water. Trust this clear this up for you.
Natures Bestasked
Where does your water come from Alka Power? Is it Sydney tap and chemical infused? How do you get a high alkaline reading?
Is it processed water??
What makes Alka Power water more stable than the rest of the waters on the market...CHEMICAL INFUSED??
Please explain.... As consumers we have the right to know more about where your water comes from and what is in your water.

Thats funny you still did not answer my question...where is Alka Powers water sourced from?? If its not tap water where is the water sourced from?? Your website does not give away a lot of information about your water.
And by the way who ever answered my question above you seem to be a very rude, very arrogant and a very lying person to say you did not delete my question or block me from your Instagram account when I simply asked you one small question "where is Alka Power water sourced from?" This also proves I can not and will not trust anything you try to tell me about Alka Power. If you are capable of lying about not blocking me over one small question you are capable of lying to all your consumers about what is in Alka Power water and where Alka Power water is sourced from.
In the mean time I did consult my doctor and asked him about Alkaline water this is what he had to say
1. PURE ALKALINE WATER DOES NOT HARM YOU!!
2. PROCESSED ALKALINE WATER LIKE ALKA POWER WHICH IS PROCESSED ALKALINE DOES HARM YOU!!
If you have nothing to hide or lie about Alkapower you should then state it on your website where Alka Power water is sourced from and what cocktail of chemicals are added and processed in your water instead of writing a warning note in your terms and Conditions "Consult your physician before taking prescription medication with alkaline water"
ONLY BIG PHARMACEUTICALS COMPANIES WRITE THESE TYPES OF WARNINGS ON THEIR PACKAGING AND WEBSITES WHEN A COCKTAIL OF INGREDIENTS AND CHEMICALS ARE ADDED AND USED IN THEIR PRODUCTS.
A COPY AND PASTE OF YOUR TERMS AND CONDITIONS BELOW FROM YOUR WEBSITE JUST IN CASE YOU SAY THIS IS NOT ON YOUR WEBSITE LIKE YOU SAID YOU DID NOT DELETE MY QUESTION OR BLOCK ME FROM YOUR INSTAGRAM ACCOUNT!!
TERMS & CONDITIONS
This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. Consult your physician before taking prescription medication with alkaline water.
Call you? You don't even provide a phone number! I think tasting the water will give you more information than visiting your website! By the grammar and punctuation in your answer Alka Power, i have determined you are not a genuine English speaker! My dad had an acidic gout after drinking your water!
No one knows, no phone number and correct address!

I recently bought a 600ml bottle of Alkapower in Maroochydore Qld (July 2016)
It has an expiry of 01April 2017
I'm a little confused and could you help me to explain how this water may maintains its original ionic charge for 15 months in storage? .as I thought ionised water had to be drunk fresh

Hi Deb, unlike other alkaline waters Alka Power has a stable pH and active minerals. It keeps its pH for years. We tested a bottle that was over two years old and it still had its original pH value. Other alkaline water have on their labels the pH value at the time of bottling. Hope this answers your question.
