ttc girl what kind of water are you drinking?

[purplepoet20]

would adding crystal light to tap water or regular bottled water do the trick? That is what I have been doing. Hoping so.

I just checked a batch of Walmart brand Crystal Light with my 7.8ph tap water..... 2 tbsps worth and it was at 3.5ph!!! This weekend I will buy some RO water and mix it with the crystal light and see.

What brand or type of water are you using I can see if I can test that too... if you don't have a ph meter!!!

Is there a place to get RO water?

Yes, Aquafina and Dasani are both RO and are widely available, or you can get a reverse osmosis device but they are spendy (at least the ones that I have seen).

I tested my tap water with my ph meter and it is at 7.8... you can also call to find out the ph of your water but my husband who works for the City of Flagstaff says that almost all water supply (maybe just in the US) is about 7.8 for health reasons.

I have been using Reverse Osmosis water because it has very low ph, mine is mixed with Crystal Light. Drinking about 100oz (and follwing some of the girl diet until June) in two days my ph went from 8.4 to 5.2. Less then a dollar a gallon and 15 cents if you know where to go.

Thanks for this info, very valuable! I'll add it to my essay! Thanks PP20's DH!

I just found out that my favorite water (Fiji Water) has a pH of 7.8. [pouts]

When I was down in Mesa AZ there was one of those "coin opperated water stations" not sure what brand but it was 15 cents a gallon and it was RO water. For those who do not know these water refill stations are really tap water that has been through a RO system. Most grocery stores have these so take a look at it... save a little money each gallon and drink more

Also, look at your natural/organic grocery store, New Frontiers in AZ, sells RO water in the store but it is 75 cents a gallon.

That is good to know! Our local stores in WA also sell water and I wonder if it is RO??

Sorry to be responding to such an old post! Just learned about this website and am hoping to sway for a girl. I have two wonderful boys but would love to have a bit more pink in the house! Anyways, my neighbors have a Kangen water filter, which produces ionized alkaline and acidic waters through electrolysis. They will let me use it anytime to get jugs of water and I was just curious if you think the PH of water has the potential to sway, and if so, what PH should I be drinking?

I actually don't any more and you can read more about why that is here: http://genderdreaming.com/forum/gend...ph-pickle.html

I have an (equally old) essay on water and swaying here: http://genderdreaming.com/forum/gend...pink-blue.html

The concern I have with doing stuff like this just cause, is because it seems like the more we focus on these little teensy details, the more "control-freaky" we get, it can really sway blue for us more than anything having to do with ions or pH does (if they even do anything) Now, I'm not saying don't do it if the spirit moves you, but just that is my concern. The more "kitchen sink" the pink sways, the more associated it seems to be with opposites. Laid back sways succees more often.
