As stated by Assoc. Dr. Nguyen Thi Van Hong, the pH in the body reflects whether the balance of acid-base is good or not. Once the acid-base balance is disturbed, it will affect the functioning of many organ systems, even causing the failure of many organ systems, the impaired organ systems will not be able to function normally, it can even lead to death. So acid-base balance disorder is one of the most difficult disorders to correct.

Doctor Van Hong also added that the pH level in the body is also different in each organ. For example, the pH in saliva ranges from 6.4 to 6.8; pH in the stomach - the most acidic organ in the body, the pH is from 1.5 to 2.5; Intestinal pH is from 7.5 to 8 which is more alkaline. The pH in the body is not fixed but changes from time to time. pH reflects health and must be maintained at a constant constant level, which is blood pH. Organs can change, can go up and down a bit, but blood pH must be very fixed, from 7.35 to 7.45 then to ensure life. Once there is a change in the pH of the blood, the clinical symptoms are quite rampant: organ system failure, the earliest sign is extreme fatigue, faster breathing, changes in blood pressure, etc. The need to maintain the body at an alkaline pH will help the digestion process, absorb food better, strengthen the immune system and make the body functions properly.

So how to have alkaline pH in the body? Assoc. Dr. Nguyen Thi Van Hong said that the diet is too much meat, fish, protein, drink a lot of milk, eat a lot of cheese, ... in the body's metabolism, a lot of acid radicals appear, causing for the pH in the body will go down. Currently, using natural alkaline mineral water has become quite popular. Natural alkaline mineral water has a pH that can range from 7.5 - 8.5, even up to 9.5 depending on the brand. When drinking, it will provide BCO3-, HCO3-, which helps to change the pH environment more than water. drink normally. Natural alkaline mineral water has the advantage of a more alkaline pH environment than other types of alkaline water, at a pH level of nearly 9. So when drinking natural alkaline water, it will quickly stabilize the pH, especially when drinking alkaline water. for better gastric pH. Besides, natural alkaline mineral water is different from some other ordinary water, that is, it provides quite a lot of ions taken from nature, such as Na, Ca, Mg ... to help the digestive tract better.

Assoc. Dr. Nguyen Thi Van Hong also said that natural alkaline mineral water is also a type of drinking water, so when you drink it, it will be excreted like normal drinking water. Therefore, when using natural alkaline mineral water or other drinking water, the body also needs to supplement regularly every day, the amount of drink is the same as normal drinking water.

Currently, many developed countries choose natural alkaline mineral water as a normal daily drink. Natural alkaline mineral water also brings many benefits to people who drink alcohol, skin inflammation, notes when choosing and using natural alkaline mineral water ...

The analysis of Prof. Dr. Nguyen Thi Van Hong also coincides with the comments of Dr. BS Arthur C. Guyton (USA) also wrote in the book Medical Physiology: The first step in maintaining health is to alkalize the body. This is an effective solution to strengthen resistance and prevent disease.

In Vietnam today, Vikoda Natural Mineral Water of Khanh Hoa Mineral Water Joint Stock Company is one of the natural alkaline mineral waters with a pH of up to 9.0, exploited at a depth of 220m in the ground. temperature up to 72 degrees Celsius at the tap and bottled right at the source with modern technology according to the regulations of the Ministry of Health. Vikoda natural mineral water ensures the preservation of the delicious taste of the mineral source, thereby contributing to the protection of consumers' health and especially safety for users.
