What kind of water do you drink? Now most of you are probably like... water? Some of you, though, likely subscribe to the alkaline water life. I've always wondered about the benefits of enhanced water. Does it really help or are you just paying more for some fancy science words? Today, we are going to do a deep dive into the world of alkaline water and see if it really is revolutionary or just a big LIE!

Lmao we can’t even have clean water here
Yeah we can only drink bottled water because the water here can give you cancer. I live in Clarkston Michigan
No, I've been nervous lots of times. (+10 if you get that).
I have had trouble trusting bottled water when I realized that Evian was naive spelled backwards.
Oh… my… god…
Oh wow
Same as a Canadian. I never drink bottled water. Tap water is much cleaner even lake water has more quality than bottled water.
In Romania we get our water literally straight from the mountains like we take big bottles and go and fill them. The water is soooo good cuz it's extremely cold and fresh.
A sign of Destiny
Fun fact. the water coming out of my tap is yellow, for about 10 seconds. sometimes brown, if I go a week without using the faucet. I inquired to my city health department and they said it's probably just rust from old pipes, and since my apartment is very old and owned by a state entity, it doesn't have to be fixed. Just let the faucet run for 60 seconds before drinking from it, and it will be fine. THAT'S why I drink bottled water at the moment.
yikes where is this?
That's a common issue. You could consider buying a water test kit of some kind to see what's actually in the water, but I'm not going to be too surprised if it's just iron. I've had that happen at my own house and we have a private well.
@@efulmer8675 where tf is it common to have brown water bro?????
@@insanegodfp Anywhere you have iron in your water?
In my apartment our water smells very strongly of chemicals and specifically chlorine. So I drink bottled water or I don’t drink water when I’m home, but at my boyfriends house (different city a couple hours away) the water runs yellow the whole time the faucet is on
Science also shows that any human that has drank water in their lifetime, will eventually pass away.
Hallo there

Time to burn down the water industry
LOL truuee
you should do an episode on the best gum brand and judge them off how long the flavor lasts, how much gum you get per stick after chewing for a minute, and price, you could do some other tests to see if it really does help your teeth or if it really makes your breath smell better idk
This would be awesome
Great idea
Lmao at first I read gun and I was really confused, then I realised it said gum, and I'm not even american!
THIS ^^^
Yes please! I’d like a data point on how much the chewing impacts the gum’s integrity and flavor. Like, some people REALLY go at it and smack their gum. I’m way less aggressive. Am I going through less gum than them, or not really?

So one theory I would love to see is chicken soup really good for when your sick? What about other countries and cultures traditional soups for when your sick is one the best? Or are they all just old wives tales that dont do much if anything at all?
Where I'm from we eat soups made from jalapenos or chilies when we get sick
Sounds like a good topic to cover. Anything better than the "sweat it out" method. My husband tried to convince me it works but it seem to only add to dehydrate him and make him miserable for days. It's asinine.
So my mom (a nurse) once told me about the B.R.A.T. diet for stomach upset, aka Broth, Rice, Applesauce, Toast. Chicken soup has broth with rice and/or toast in it. Lots of nutrient per calorie and easy to digest compared to most modern food, and usually not too sweet.
But it doesn't have to be chicken. Any sort of hot mush will do, be it a wet chili, a beef stew, veggie ramen, spicy coconut chowder, egg flower (my favorite), so long as it's got a bunch of protein and some carbs that aren't too sweet and you can slurp it down even if it's hard to swallow or you're literally too tired to chew much.
Jellow, pudding, applesauce, etc are same idea but cold instead of hot and sweet instead of savory.
Other than being sugary, bananas are nutrient rich and easy to eat, and less acidic than a lot of other fruit.
Also if you've got a nose cold, switch from butter to oil and vinegar or guac or peanut butter for your toast because dairy can increase mucous production, which is why you don't hear about people eating extra cheese or yogurt when they're sick even though they're high calorie foods that don't take much chewing.
TLDR: soup easy to swallow with sore throat
Pretty sure the cooking channel show- Food fact or fiction- did the chicken soup one. From what I remember, I think it boiled down to "It helps you feel better because it helps your body/immune system recover the nutrients/minerals/other stuff it loses while sick. But don't think of it as a CURE because it isn't one."
Or something like that
Yes and what does bone broth do exactly?
Alkaline water: "I am the cure to everything!"
Your stomach acid: "I'm about to end this man's whole career."
For those that dont know: There are Conman selling 'special' Water and such and such.
'Professor Dave Explains' made a video about this and other fun topics around science or anti-science. I warmly recommend it.
But just in general: C'mon, you call yourself theorists, but i wonder how many science-yt-channel

@@maximyllion You mean Niel Red?
okay but the real question that needs a final answer:
is 3 big meals a day or multiple small meals and snacks throughout the day better for your overall health and well being?
I've heard that 2 bigger meals at the beginning and end as well as small healthy snacks in between is best
At the end it doesn't matter. What matter is nutrients you eat and how much you eat. In some keto diets you can eat one meal a day... or you could even eat 10 meals a day and if you eat your daily content of calories and nutrients body will not see difference.
There is the theory that for muscle building it's beneficial to eat a protein source 4-5 times a day.
Besides that I only heard that people have different needs. Some get well off with 2 bigger meals, some need 3. Some need just many small ones. Mostly what is recommended is to not eat heavy thing on stomach before sleeping. So maybe plan in less big things if you go late
Either is fine. It depends on the person. It's all about total calories.
It depends on the person, their goals, any underlying medical problems that could be affected.
It’s so strange how this flew over my mind, i have preferably been drinking alkaline water ever since my body felt ever so slightly better while having heartburn and an inflamed stomach (I have GERD with omeprazole medication ).Thanks for the video MatPat!
I have GERD too :o
It's called placebo and taking your meds.
Surprised they kept you on Omep. It's known to cause home weakening if you're on it too long. I was on it for years before they forced my off. I have GERD too.

basic chemistry would answer this for everyone instantly, your acidid stomach neutralizes the alkaline water instantly, like literally as soon as it enters your stomach its not basic anymore and your stomach just makes more acid if you neutralize some of it.
He addresses this, saying that alkaline water offers some relief to heartburn caused by excessive stomach acid.
@@caseyoung1527 As does Tums, but the problem with these options is that your stomach just as easily releases more acid. The reality is that chronic heartburn is typically caused by chronic overeating. When your stomach is always having to produce excessive acid to deal with the amount and frequency it has to digest food, it starts becoming the norm for your body. Losing weight totally stopped by heartburn and quiting smoking stopped my GERD, so I always try to keep people avoiding prescription drugs and surgery for something they can correct themselves.
Need some Dr. Sebi water classes
Pfakl
Yeah, it's really hard to understand these things when they enter your stomach
So, conversational point here. We recently discovered (kinda by accident) that our drinking water (reverse osmosis) has super low pH. So we added a filter to put a bunch of minerals back in, making it more Basic. And my chronic stomach acid is finally easing up. But I don't think that's because the basic water is helping… it's the fact that I'm no longer making it worse with acidic water.
I'm not sure if "putting less acid in your stomach lessens acid reflux" counts as controversial
Conversational. Not controversial
Everything super logical that can't allow Pharma to make billions, or discredit their expensive poisons, is definitively controversial. Boosting your immune system with nutrition is [insert gaslighting insults] not even fit for horses?
Honestly, I'm just glad you sprung for a filter instead of resorting to bottled water. Good job, there.
It’s probably because reverse osmosis water has no minerals and so because of diffusion, the water lacking minerals draws minerals out of your cells.

I would love to hear Matpat explain why we, as humans, can't digest corn
I’m pretty sure it’s because plants have sugars linked in a specific way and we as humans can’t digest them. Idk why tho
We can, just not the skin of the kernel. They look like full kernels in your stool because they get filled again with more stool.
The exterior of corn kernels is cellulose. We can not digest cellulose.
Interestingly, cellulose is basically identical to starches, which we obviously can digest, but whereas starches have the glucose units all bonded on the same side, in starch they flip back and forth. This small difference means the enzymes we use to break down starches are unable to break down cellulose.
Now, some animals do break down and digest cellulose. The way they do this isn't that they produce enzymes to do it, but rather that they let microbes in their guts do so. There are a few strategies here. Some animals, like cows, have very long multi-stage digestion processes that give ample time for bacteria to break down cellulose. Others instead extend the time they spend digesting by consuming their feces to have a second go at it.
Anyways, cellulose is what "dietary fiber" is. Fiber is beneficial because it can't be digested. It adds bulk, retains moisture, and slows digestion and absorption of certain things, as well as supports healthier gut flora.
@seigeengine a little elaboration, if I may: cellulose is just one source of one category of dietary fiber. Specifically, it's insoluble fiber which (while both are good for you) does a somewhat different set of things to soluble fiber.
If you're trying to get a specific benefit from the fiber you're adding to your diet, looking up the differences may be useful.
If you're just trying to generally improve what you're putting into your body, making sure you're getting a balance of both will do you better than loading up on a supplement that only has one.
The more interesting thing about corn, specifically, is how we need to process it to get the full nutritional value out of it, which skipping has caused nutrient deficiencies in the past.
@@dynamicworlds1 Unnecessary elaboration, imo. While it's true dietary fiber is broader than cellulose, the options are basically also cellulose, or other indigestible polysaccharides, many with other monosaccharide bases. There's also things like resistant starches, but... honestly, there's a limit.
And, really, if you're eating a good diet, you're going to be getting a bunch of both. You shouldn't generally need supplements.
I would like a sister theory about carbonated waters. San Pelle, Perrier, La Croix.... which water is the best for hydrating, or for staving off hunger or anything.
Yess since it’s carbonated acid… does ist do exactly the opposite of alkaline water?
Ive heard that perrier is loaded with calcium & other minerals & as a result can actually throw your body off course
The best water for hydrating is good old fashioned regular water. Come right out of the tap in the kitchen.
I know some people who enjoy la croix and insist it has flavor
To me it tastes like someone’s thinking very hard about a fruit while sitting next to you only to eventually just whisper the fruit name in your ear as you take a sip
I remember reading about how carbonated water actually makes you more hungry than regual water. also, of course. If you have reflux issues its not going to make that any better either. though not because of tha acid and rather because of the gas. Carbonated water also tend to be not that acidic anyway. carbonylic acid is a rather weak acid, and highly unstable. hence why its making water sparkling. its immediatly falls apart and leaves the liquid as carbon dioxide, leaving H2O behind.
I would love to see an episode on testing the PH levels of water and putting water brands to the test!
Same!
Would love to test Philadelphia in water.
Really didn't expect acid reflux would make it's way into a theory. Did a really good job on explaining how it works. Had it for years, 99% managed tho so not many issues.
Ive just found out i had it and it really sucks dude
@@wungus_ that sucks mate. You'll probably have been told this already but avoid coffee, spicy food, alcohol and anything acidic.
Depending how bad it is for you, you'll probably have to try a bunch of medication to find what works for you. Best you stick with trying, as it can lead to more problems, but that's only if nothing is done so don't worry mate.
👍
Used to have GERD a form of it and just got It controlled with a little bit ago, it really sucks.
I know only people who had something similar commented but I'm just gonna say that I hope you don't have to deal with this all your life. Maybe in the future they'll find something that'll help hold back the acidic reflex. And I'm not just talking about like alkaline water helping the acidic reflex I mean PERMANENTLY. More than likely not gonna happen but let's hope😅
@@midwarrior5150 there is a surgery people can have. I've just chosen to stick with medicine for now bcos there's obviously risks involved plus potential permanent side effects/changes. I'm just not willing take that risk on at least at this point in my life. But yeah hope there's a simpler solution down the track for everyone.
Also, the "p" in pH just stands for -log, not power. This means that pH stands for "-log of the Concentration of H+". We really only use the pH scale since it is logrimithic and gives nicer numbers than concentrations of H+ (since a pH of 7 equates to 1.0×10^-7 M of Hydrogen ion and a pH of 14 is 1.0×10^-14 M of Hydrogen ion).
Nice, good job. We assume all water is a dynamic solution neutral H2O and its ions (hydronium and hydroxide), however new water research from the past decade shows the truth is more complex... much more complex. Every solution of pure water, no matter the pH, takes on many many forms: neutral, ionic, and as we now know LIQUID CRYSTALLINE which has a practically infine number of different arrangments. This discovery challenges our most fundamental ideas of the branch of science we call chemistry. There is no explanation or even a theory for how or why water forms these liquid crystals - but they do. This is not common knowledge since it has no place in our current understanding.
that is a pretty fun fact
Maybe you are right but in my last year science textbook 'p' in pH was standing for 'power'.
@@nikhilkharate9262 yeah you can see that the power in the exponent is literally the negative of the pH level, so power makes sense

Theory Idea: Is Breakfast really the most important meal of the day? If not which one is the most important
breakfast is where you get your energy from. it used to be more important when breakfast was the largest meal of the day. nowadays dinner is the largest even though it’s supposed to be the smallest
I can't imagine the frequency of or relative sizing of meals is of more than marginal consequence.
It doesn't matter. There's your facts.
Depends on your lifestyle and how your body reacts to food.
If I'm going to be doing a lot of tiring work, I find getting breakfast in is kinda important. If I'm not, sometimes I even skip it.
You're going to have to figgure that one out yourself.
Is breakfast important? Sure. Should you be eating all those marketed breakfast foods? Might wanna do some research on that considering the insane levels of sugar in most of them (Some so bad it'd be healthier to eat literal cake for breakfast.)

That was the part that surprised me the most and left me completely dumbfounded
Yeah, turns out after millions of years of evolution we already have a built in mechanic for knowing when we need more water... It's called thirst. The whole "if you're thirsty you're already dehydrated" thing is false.
That's fine if you follow a good diet. But most people don't, so make sure to have extra water, It won't hurt
@@giovannibrucher It won't hurt, as long as you actually make sure to urinate when the urge hits, anyway. You intake anything in too large a quantity without expelling it properly and it'll reach the level of being toxic to your body. Also, too much water can lower you mineral levels, so if you're trying to both eat healthy and drink a lot of water, you might run into issues like low sodium levels. Etc etc. There's never a simple answer when it comes to body chemistry.
@@Shalakor Is ionized salt something I should be adding if I drink a lot of water at work? My urine usually comes out fairly clear with little to no color. My roomates like to get sea salt, kosher salt, and mineral salt, but even that last item "doesn't contain iodine/iodide (keep forgetting the difference), a necessary nutrient" so how important is that mineral to my health really, and could there be other ways I may already be getting it in my diet? Does the sodium in foods use iodized salt already, or is it just pure salt?
The best thing about Noom is something that doesn't get covered in the ad spot; probably because it's not a trendy gimmick.

Yknow as someone with GERD I was not at all expecting it to be brought up during this video and was throughly surprised, most people just talk about heartburn and it's association with getting older (I'm 18 so no one really gets my constant issues with heartburn and acid reflux) and it was just really nice to here it mentioned. Also yeah, the name is very funny and makes me laugh too despite being in pain because of it
I was surprised too! I've got chronic acid reflux and heartburn, (genetic diseases, yay!!) and the bad pun caught me off guard. When I started laughing, I had a flare up and proceeded to cough my lungs up. Also, I totally get your issues with GERD being associated with getting older. I'm under 18, and I've had these issues since I was 6, but just didn't know what it was.
@@eepythesleepy Yikes, I can't imagine that was fun growing up. I got mine after having a bad case of mono + h.pylori, it just kinds cropped up afterwards.

I also wish GERD was named after the scientist lmao. It is however an acronym for Gastro-Esophagal Reflux Disorder. Its a problem with the connection between the esophagus and the stomach so stomach acid moves up the esophagus when it isn't supposed to. I must say, it isn't fun. It's mostly managed by regular anti acid tablets and special prescription ones that you take once a day and permanently reduce the pH of your stomach acid to a level that still works for digestion but isn't as bad on the esophagus.
This. Spitting stomach acid like a cobra SOUNDS cool until you wake up literally choking on it and your throat's cells literally change to stomach cells.
Can confirm, it is very much so lame.
Same. I was just told to take over-the-counter acid pills every day (the kind that say you should use them for 14 days), and it mostly works. Wish I didn't have to, though
@@Dragon_Ryder I’ve been doing this for 23 years 😟
I had a teacher named Gerd (roughly pronounced Gaerd, with a soft G). She SUCKED! It's a pretty uncommon/old nordic female name, though I think it has strong gender-neutral vibes. According to a 5-minute google search, it comes from the world for homestead/yard/farm = gård (Gerd, gård, pretty similar), and it means protection or possibly "she who belongs to the home(?)". Point being it could've very well been the name of the scientist that named it but since it'd been the first name it probably wouldn't have been named after her.

As someone's who's name is literally Alkquline- this was absolutely hilarious. All i can i say is my only powers are drawing.
The health community's obsession with acidity would be kind of hilarious if people weren't taking it seriously. Take a look at the charts they produce where they claim to assign pH values to various common foods: you get things like citrus fruits listed as alkaline (because they're healthy, and therefore by definition must be alkaline, right?), and some foods with values so extreme you'd dissolve your hand touching them if there were any truth to the charts (which there isn't).
Eh. You typically don't dissolve.
Just get chemical burns
You know I googled this because I was like "No way! No one can be that stupid". And, sure enough, there were infographics that listed lemons and limes as having a pH of 9.0, even though both have been well tested and have well recorded pHs of 2.0-ish. Those infographics even put icecream as more acidic then than lemons. I'm sitting here wondering how they even came up with that information. Like if your icecream had a pH that low, you would know. It would taste just terrible. Like, think about it. Milk normally has a pH of close to 7, while sour milk has a pH of close to 4.5. Think about what ice cream would taste like if its pH was lower than 2.0. It wouldn't even be worth selling. I just don't know about humanity anymore.
I am continuously surprised by how often people don't understand foundational scientific concepts. Didn't we learn this stuff in school?
Citrus fruits are litrally the most acidic fruits along with pineapples. That what gives their tigerling sensation when you eat them their juices are dissolving your tough.
@@austinluther5825 schools don’t allow people to retain information that efficiently anymore. I do think that most people do remember the science information if they do remember anything though.

minor correction: because pH is a logarithmic scale, it can go below 0 and above 14 - for example, concentrated HCl acid is around -1 and sodium hydroxide can be as high as 15. Great video anyway!
These are labeled as something like super aids and super bases right?
@@swampdonkey1567 I think so, but the exact terminology doesn't matter too much
If you want to talk about superacids, then the pH scale will be quite janky. The first concept of an acid is constructed around the H+ particle.
An acid would be something that donated a proton (H+) and a base would donate hydroxide (OH-)
The theory was later on changed by brønsted to proton donors and acceptors, which allowed us to explain basic solutions that the old theory couldn't.
In extend the formula for "pH" calculations was also adjusted and changed into the term H o (as in zero).
A super acid has an H o of -12, which isn't the same as a pH of -12. It just indicates how well it can neutralize hydroxide solutions.
@@swampdonkey1567 nope super acids (usually a combination of brönstedt and lewis acids) are a different thing. And acid base things gets wacky when you go far beyond 0 or 14. As you are talking about a logoritmical scale of concentration of H+ so ph 20 would be /10000000000000 as few H+ than at ph 7 which sort of limits your choices.

The only time I’ll ever drink bottled water is when I’m traveling and don’t want to get sick from tap water, doesn’t stop me from getting sick from it when I brush my teeth though. I should use the bottled water for that too
Heh that’s funny I’ve lived in Kentucky basically all my life and never thought people could get sick from tap water 😅

I’d love to see a food theory about if vegan/vegetarian substitutes are nutritionally equal, if not better than the regular food (like beyond beef vs. regular beef or regular eggs vs. vegan eggs for example).
If you like beef, instead to eat vegan chemical lies, why not learn to make peace with the cycle of life. Watch the lion king. [Insert song, very loud, off key]
They're just not, the majority of human beings can't thrive on vegan diets. Only a small percentage can
Good idea
@@treeofwolf4539 Bro Lions are carnivores, they have no other option. Oh and they don't have the intelligence for complex morals as far as I know. We as humans can think deeply about our actions. Animals do many things that most humans would rather stay away from. We can't just refer to nature or "the cycle of life" whenever it fits our preferred outcome. Unless you think many forms of abuse to humans is also okay.
@@johannesstephanusroos4969 I would love to know why you say that. As far as I know most humans can nutritionally thrive on a vegan diet, and have vegan food available to them.

The build-up of lactic acid/lactate doesn't cause muscle burn and fatigue they are just correlated. Also, lactic acid/lactate is an important fuel source for our muscles so removing it would lessen athletic performance not increase it.
Yeah I doubt athletes jumping on a fad really understand what the pH of water does after ingestion.
However, when I paused to read the conclusion in the video, it said it was faster utilization of lactate after the workout, so im guessing it was a misinterpretation that it “washes” it away. However, the utilization of lactate after workout doesn’t really help in performance does it? It just means after the match their body cools down faster?
@@serena6684 I mean there are time outs right? Maybe that's when they plan to cool down
The waste product of anaerobic energy is lactic acid. Only the aerobic system uses lactic acid. High acidity is not an environment muscles are able to work at full capacity in which is why it is the enemy of anaerobic athletes.
Furthermore, acute supplementation of baking soda has been shown to moderately improve performance outcomes in power and force production metrics (sprinting, jumping, throwing, lifting)
@@serena6684 you can utilize lactate during a workout but you must be in aerobic workout state not anaerobic
Is there a theory about how much water you actually need to drink every day? I’d love to know that!
Years of chemistry class and this is the first time hearing the term "pH" has an actual definition. I just thought of it like a symbol placeholder :I
MatPat even messed up the definition. I am almost finished with my B.S. in Chemistry and am a tutor, this is a common definition that people get wrong.
The "p" in pH stands for "(-)log". So pH actually means "(-)log of hydrogen ion concentration".
Hope that helps!
The "p" is also important in other places in chemistry. I'm currently writing a lab report for pKa of 2-naphthol. So in this case it is "(-)log of the acid dissociation constant". 😊

Well, if You got osteoporosis drinking milk won't solve the problem. Osteoporosis happens because the bones are lacking calcium? Yes, but is because your bones can't absorb the calcium and lifting weights have an effect in the body that it needs to "make" the bones stronger because it needs to keep up with the stress of cause by the weight, so yes, drinking milk will help, You are gonna need both, the milk and the weighted workout. Oh, and yes, i am a personal trainer who have studied about illnesses that can be treated by training
As someone who designs water treatment plants, please drink tap water.. so much work, money, and cleaning goes into it!
Nah.
As an environmental engineer, I agree 100%! The level of regulations for tap water from the EPA are extremely high and are typically higher than that of bottled water. The only reasons tap water is viewed as unsafe is due to taste, usually caused by low levels of residual chlorine used to keeps it safe from bacteria and viruses in the piping system. This off taste can easily be handled by a pitcher with an activated carbon filter. Also, people have some fear due to fringe cases like Flint Michigan which was caused by several mishaps and cover ups by the water treatment plant that should have never happened by a properly trained environmental engineer.
Water if continually tested at the plant, and in the rare event something exceeds a standard (usually still safe, standards are strict), they are required by law to notify the public as soon as possible. Bottle water is regulated by the FDA, and they require very little reporting on how the bottled water is sourced, filtered, and treated.

When stomach acid is neutralized, the cells would just keep secreting hydrochloric acid, but it does affect the supply since the body is a closed system to a limited degree. More on the chlorine side of things considering hydrogen is easy to get.

I live in a place where I've been told the water has a lot of natural minerals in it, so pretty much everyone has filtered water. I'd be interested in learning the science between why having "hard" or "soft" water matters
For those that dont know: There are Conman selling 'special' Water and such and such.
'Professor Dave Explains' made a video about this and other fun topics around science or anti-science. I warmly recommend it.
But just in general: C'mon, you call yourself theorists, but i wonder how many science-yt-channel
you even know!
Hi @Anya Klum, the hardness of water depends on the concentration of minerals in the water, the higher concentration of minerals, the harder the water. Examples of such minerals are Mg2+ and Ca2+ ions. This can affect the solubility of certain compounds in water such as Ca(OH)2, where Ca(OH)2 solution is used in the industry to treat waste gases like SO2(g). The presence of Ca2+ in the hard water reduces the solubility of Ca(OH)2 due to Le Chatelier's principle, causing concentration of Ca(OH)2 to be lower at equilibrium. When used to treat SO2, the lower concentration reduces the amount of SO2 reacted, reducing the effectiveness.

This is just one of the ways hardness of water matters. Feel free to ask questions and share your thoughts, I would love to hear them!
Hope this helps!
@@marcusleo9491 ?
"Hard" water has a lot of extra minerals dissolved in it, so can make things like soaps and detergents less effective. Here in Germany our dishwashers actually have built in water softeners to combat this and make our dish detergent more effective.
"Milk is filled with calcium and calcium makes your bones stronger" OH NO!! Big Milk got to him! Next we'll be seeing Matt Pat on posters sporting a milk mustache in our elementry school cafeterias.
Ain't even true though. It's actually a myth, it's magnesium that makes your bones stronger.
@@DavidVoxDem lol. You're wrong. Magnesium helps with bone density. Calcium is needed to maintain strong and healthy bones.

Mat pat already debunked milk awhile ago weirdly enough
I have been on Noom since July 27th and I love it!
Lowercase “p” stands for the negative log of… and “H” is the concentration of hydronium ions in the unit molar
you are correct that the technical definition of the function pX = -log_10_( [X] ), where [X] is the molar concentration of X in the solution, with pH originally intended as a logarithmic measure of H+ ion concentration, but now just as commonly described as measuring H3O+ (Hydronium) ions instead because of better understanding of how ionization of water works mechanically, so technically should be written as pH3O. But MatPat is correct that the letter “p” (ie the NAME of the function pX) is usually assumed to stand for “potential (latin ‘potentia’) of X” or “power (latin ‘potestas’) of X” or one of many related words in german and french, despite to my knowledge no record of Søren Sørensen’s original reasoning surviving to this day, just that in his original work he labelled the function as P[H].
@a person on the internet combination of technical chemistry and lingustics stuff, no shame in not knowing the technobabble. The TL;DR is that both the Theta and MatPat are right, just looking at what pH "means" from different perspectives. I could explain the full thing in layman's terms, but it would be 3x as long and I need to go to sleep.

I wasn't expecting an "ERMAGERD" joke today and it absolutely killed me. Had to pause the video and get myself under control from laughing.
Great plan to pause! I couldn't even do that and probably missed out.
the acid-base chemistry, while oversimplified, and idealized, is mostly correct. However radical chemistry is very different. Radicals aren't just electrons from negative ions, but are highly reactive, unpaired electrons. You can have unpaired electrons in both positive, negative ions and neutral molecules/atoms (radical Oxygen is neutral), and "neutralizing" radicals isn't a simple thing as "add a base". Radicals are "neutralized" by pairing the unpaired electron with another unpaired electron (generally forming a covalent bond, or prorogating the radical to another molecule)
