Alkaline water is just nonsense but anyone still buying it knows all of the science debunking and buys it anyway, so let's not berate rich dumb people any more than needed.

While they are getting no benefit, what “Real Water” brand alkaline water customers do obtain is acute non-viral hepatitis, according to the the FDA, CDC and the Southern Nevada Health District.

Yet the company has no interest in cooperating with FDA or CDC in protecting their customers. They have instead refused, forcing a Demand for Records under section 414 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. Then on March 24, 2021, Real Water, Inc. of Mesa, AZ, and Henderson, NV, rushed to recall all sizes of its Real Water brand drinking water and concentrate.

One distributor, in the Honolulu, Hawaii, area and one distributor in Orange County, CA no longer sell Real Water Inc.

Until the company complies with health officials, no matter how much you overpaid, you should not drink, cook with, sell, or serve “Real Water” alkaline water.
