has anyone tried alkaline water?

I saw this device that converts tap water into alkaline water while watching tv. It`s made in Japan but I`m sure it`s been introduced in western countries already. It acts as a detoxifier & it`s healing abilities are compared to the miraculous waters of Lourdes,etc. They didn`t mention anything about curing bb but I`m curious if it will work on it. I`ve tried apple cider vinegar before & I think it`s alkaline but I`ve never tried alkaline water before so if anyone here have tried it please share your info.

I tend to avoid buying stuff that I see on TV

They are all targetted for the mainstream ignorant market (just like TheraBreath, ProFresh etc)

I`m not going to buy a $2,ooo equipment without prior verification.

P.S. I LOVE TV $\:D/$

actually this might be something. people with bad breath - or so ive read - have a much lower level of alkaline in their saliva than normal folks. in addition the acidity levels in our mouths are much higher than normal folks. so just the phrase alkaline water sounds interesting to me.

coeric:
Actually I was thinking that I may have too much acid in my stomach that`s why the device caught my interest. It promises to act as a buffer to the acid therefore eliminating them as waste products. I don`t know if this will work so I`m afraid to spend so much money. Although I`m trying to look for bottled alkaline water coz it`s cheaper. I wonder if anyone here has had first hand experience with this stuff.

You`re right about baking soda. It used to work on my bb when it was just starting.
