And I can guarantee that they have absolutely no idea that not only is it exceedingly difficult to alter the body’s pH through diet, it’s a very bad thing when it does happen.
Would say this would be American consumers... Here in the UK we have a well rounded education thus know what pH is and what acidic and alkaline mean... Geez 🙄

@@vatomalo68 This is exactly right.... it’s Vegas... I lived there for 27 years and used to drink this water back from 2007- 2008, before I ever took higher up science classes where I learned about acid base reactions... I can’t believe I was so naive to drink this crap... wtf
There needs to be stricter standards for food and water companies before the products become available to the consumer. These companies are able to make false statements just so they can profit. SMH!!!
Maybe hire a chemist next time... Too much of anything can be bad. He pretty much said he added more chemicals to the water and didn't even comprehend he could have been exceeding FDA guidelines. But he was following the instructions of his boss who also should have known.
It seems like what they’re saying is there is no FDA guidelines for this. Which just adds to the problem. I know people don’t like the government overreach but in some areas like our food companies won’t do the right thing unless they’re forced to. For example get qualified chemist to make food.
People keep acting like this is what PhD chemists do. It's not. $80-100K+ industrial chemists don't work on production lines, adding chemicals and testing pH of every batch of water. They set standards, create protocols, and develop procedures to ensure a standard outcome. in a larger facility, you might have a quality control person who oversees randomized product testing. But this is a very small facility. A literal mom and pop shop. They're lucky if they even had a consultant establish guidelines and procedures to follow and maybe answer questions on occasion. If procedures and training were in place, this man would have probably been an okay hire. He lacks a little common sense, but apparently, he figured that if the chemicals he was working with were harmful, he wouldn't have been left on his own. And just because this man didn't know about the chemical compounds, doesn't mean they were the wrong chemicals. Just may have been the wrong dosages. Just poor management all around.

@@mike7870 I do think people can make naive decisions. It's not like people recieve training on avoiding scams and reading through pseudoscience. Marketing relies on our ability to make poor decisions and our lack of foresight. And considering it's water, I'd imagine some ppl thinking you can't really go wrong with making water.
@Sand Hanitizer Yeah I can agree with that. I just don't want to throw the blame on ppl for something they may not know they don't know. Like I thought the bottle water industry was more regulated then this. Like ik the dumb stuff like it hydrated your cells or boosts your metabolism is BS, but I wouldn't think the products would pose an issue to human health.
There's something else at issue here, I'm pretty sure, beginning with workers that have no real understanding of their jobs. A pH in the 8 range isn't that far away from neutral (7) and there are city water systems whose "normal" water is also as high as the mid-8 range. It _is_ better for infrastructure, especially metal pipe longevity, and probably for acid reflux sufferers as well. (My city, in contrast, spends a small fortune trying to lime its acidic water stocks just to reach the mid 6's.) Hyping alkaline water using other unproven claims is just standard American snake-oil sales tactics.
@@ReflectedMiles I suspect that better science education would give people a better understanding of pH and thus at least mitigate both of these issues. From what I remember my lessons on pH in high school chemistry were unsettlingly scant. I remembered them well enough for my brain to skeptical of alkaline water claims, but I know I'm an outlier on that account.

Agreed. I stopped buying bottled water after I realized it takes 1000+ years for one plastic water bottle to biodegrade. I bought a filter for our kitchen sink.
They have. It's already known that children's bodies have smaller organs, therefore they are unable to process certain things like adult bodies can. Hence, why the warning labels on over the counter medicines say "not recommended for children under 12." Or, they may different dosing requirements for children. That's also why they have children's medicine. I.e. Children's Tylenol, etc.
I mean, the inverse makes sense, so he probably assume that the direct version would make sense as well. If something is poisonous, you probably shouldn't ingest any of it, even if it's a tiny, tiny amount. A "trace" amount of something very dangerous is still bad. And if something is completely safe - usually a bit more, or double, etc. of that thing is still fine. Like, for example, something random like a food - a banana let's say. One banana is safe, ergo, most people would also assume eating 6 bananas is still safe. Or if this was orange juice concentrate or something, added double the OJ concentrate would still be safe, just might taste weird. He was thinking along those lines. You can't blame the guy, it makes sense with many other food/drink items, so I can see why he'd think about it that way, especially given that he has no idea what's in that concentrate. I mean, he was still wrong - but the owners were responsible for this ultimately. They were the one putting who knows what into the water, and telling an untrained guy that has NO IDEA what's in the "concentrate" and isn't a chemist, etc. - to just "put in more concentrate" was a horrendously stupid and irresponsible thing to do. They're the ones at fault here, not this poor goober that was probably being paid like 10 bucks an hour to dump some mystery liquid into bottled water for his boss.
In his defense, he doesn't have the education or training to know any better. He also probably assumed that the concentrate was just a buffer to bring up the pH to the proper level on his meter, and as long as he hit the right number or range on the meter it was all good no matter how much he added.
@King Domain doesn't matter where it came from. the guy mixing the chemicals had no science background and was not given any training at all. But the people running the company are mostly to blame for this happening. they kept their employee in the dark about what the concetrate wass so that later on they can use him like a meat sheild if criminal charges end up happening. even if the stuff did come from china.... why did the owners buy it? look also at their facilities. it looked like a warehouse meth lab.
In the span of 11 days, 5 families risked losing their children. These people deserve so much worse than what the judicial system allows for, at the very least they should be behind bars
No word for people who made this water how cruel they are, but I’m so happy to hear that those little kids didn’t need to go through liver transplant, praise to the Almighty Lord!! Thank you for the happy ending news.
What about the real deception of something that’s presented by people you think are compete to sell it to you? It doesn’t matter what the people look like. You can be deceived!!
Yes, I thought so, too. That clueless-looking female assistant in the commercial with the frozen look on her face, lol. I'm guessing she came from the strip club, too. That cheap, homemade commercial would send up red flags the first time I saw it. The parents probably never saw it and just thought they'd try a new product that sounded healthy, like the mom said. Hoping we all remember to do our own research, online and through friends, and steer clear of short-lived companies offering food and/or drink.
Went to a state fair where they were selling alkaline water. They were really pushy and my partner was rubbed the wrong way by the whole thing. Crackpots and snake oil salesmen are rife. This is just up to the nth degree. Those poor children. They didn't deserve that.
@@jameslinmd pretty sure the people at the fair were selling a fraudulent machine. I mean a couple booths down someone was selling a poached animal with cages too small. Trust nothing at the fair.
I feel bad for the employe who put so much concentrate into the water. He was obviously doing the “stress chuckle” that many of us do, and taking instructors another person who had no training or idea of safe levels of the chemicals being used is a classic example of the blind leading the blind. I hope all of the people affected recover.
what is in the concentrate. ok just take what water they have , take it to the lab and see , then there. we need lawsuits and we need criminal charges & lawsuits.
@CRAM MARC That and no one even establish this being the issue. If there was strong belief this was the issue they would get a warrant and seize said materials. I don't think they did. I think they should have just to get to the bottom of this.
Need to do alot more,since no science was used,each batch could be different chem,different amounts,different concentrations.pull all bottles destroy and sue the company,and sue the owner
I remembered someone interviewed some adults not too long ago that got sick or were representing someone they knew who got sick from this product. Too bad that kids have to get hurt for something to happen...
Water alkalinity is a scam. Users of these products believe that they are alkalizing their body's fluids. Basically any small perturbation of pH will hospitalize you. The body of a healthy person will correct the pH of any safe alkalized water product.
A lot of bottled water companies just get the stuff from municipal supplies, and just ship it out, but one company came up with a plan to put a large bore well directly into the Mecan springs in Wisconsin, ( the source of the Mecan river, one of Wisconsin's premier trout streams, and the life's blood of the Germania marsh wildlife area) and bottle it under their name and ship it out of the state, now this particular company would have you believe that the source of their water is a spring high in the French Alps, their plot got exposed, and the outcry from the local population was so loud that they were denied the necessary permits. The name of this company? Evian! What is that company's name spelled backward? Naive!
That's a stupid comment by that guy. They didn't make the water, they added stuff to water, they didn't make water. Anyways, water needs to be processed to remove bacteria/cysts/high levels of certain minerals/etc. Drinking alkaline water is dumb marketing IMO though. Just use tap water and a reverse osmosis system and be worry free. Based on the video, they overloaded the water with their 'secret mix' and made it poisonous. Just a bunch of idiots that want to make quick money out of people.

I’m a hazmat tech and we’ve tested different brands of water with chemstrips and very very few brands are neutral. Most of the water has acid in it. Smart water has a lot of acid in it.
@@mobilemandy8495 honestly I don’t remember because it’s been awhile since I’ve been to refresher class but you can buy those strips and test them at home. I’m not 100% sure but I think the spring water was the best but I’m not 100% sure.
I don’t like that they seem to be targeting the ex bouncer guy when he thought he was just doing his job. He has no clue what the chems are he was just told that it was good for the water and that he was to mix it in. Also they should be focused on the father and son who are running a shady warehouse in the middle of nowhere
I’m sure they are focused on the whole business and those at the top, but they still have to call witnesses to establish what happened. Hopefully the owners will face charges.
I think they presented this story, and the information, from several different perspectives, the parents , owner, and an employee. As members of a community , my community of Las Vegas as it happens, people, employees have a responsibility to speak out. do the right thing. if told to do something you’re not qualified to do don’t do it . Say no. get more training, quit, get authorities involved . Step up. we have a responsibility to look out for one another , and NOT just “go along to get along”
I'm fortunate. I live in a temperate rainforest, in a fairly isolated area. The water in my well is amazing. It tastes delicious right from the tap. I remember being so shocked at the flavor of town water.
You are blessed! I live in Trinidad. The water company is government owned. There is a lot of chlorine and fluoride in it, and it’s often cloudy and/or kinda brown. Most people buy cases of water at the grocery, but I think those are probably chlorinated as well. I am blessed to have a friend with a source of rainwater (he lets me fill my drinking bottles) but I still have to boil it before I can drink it (because it’s been sitting in a holding tank and little buggy things tend to live in it)
My city used to have some of the best water in the world, straight from Hetch Hetchy dam piped right into our sinks. Totally pure. Then they stopped advertising that. Now we all have to filter our water. Everyone I know gets constant diarrhea, liver issues, and other health problems. A lot of people continue to drink the water operating under old assumptions that it’s the good water from before. It’s not. It’s toxic
I stopped buying alkaline water at our local water store, due to ill affects I was experiencing in my stomach. I didn’t have any severe reactions, but I noticed my gut wasn’t digesting foods correctly, etc. I told my wife we just need to get the basic regular purified water, and my gut issues stopped. We only go for natural organically harvested Alkaline Water from local sources.
Here’s a tip: If something that is meant for human or animal consumption says “Alkaline” on the packaging, it really isn’t something you should think won’t hurt you in some way. After all, this is the same stuff that can be found in batteries so it’s like consuming a battery really if you think about it.
and this is why you just get water filters in your home... eliminates plastic bottle use and way more convenient! and i don’t mean brita jugs which are last for much shorter, i mean filters attached in fridges or on the sink!

@@iloveamerica53 nope feel fine. 🤷🏼♀️If you listen to the story it was that particular batch that was made wrong. I think that family got those big bottles of water and we’re drinking it for more than a couple days.
@Sushiirull You laughing? You don't think there isn't really such a thing as an alkalinized water fella? Stop being damn idiots thinking that unnatural liquid is better than plain 7.0pH water. Of course there are chemicals they add in to make that pH high.
@Sushiirull I've got a legit PHD in bullshitery too. Does that qualify me enough for ya? Got my internet qualifications right here. You see that? Thats more legit than yours.
@Sushiirull Literally the most non-chemist reply you could ever make is to claim to be a chemist instead of talking about the solvents they add in it. Please enlighten about how the water pH goes basic with your vast amount of knowledge of alkali earth metals and the other elements or compounds they might have added, oh mr. man of specialized authority!
Just remember when you pay for that fancy shmancy water in a plastic bottle it's coming from a guy like this guy at 3:46 who squirts chemicals into jugs of water in a nasty room...
In, general, alkaline water gives some people stomach aches or diarrhea. I wouldn't give it to my lil ones. If anything, try to get near perfectly "neutral" ph water. Fiji is the best I've found. 👍🏼
Depends on the person drinking it and the other things they add to their system. For me smart water seems to be best. I wouldnt give my children alkaline water.
I personally love alkaline water! I think that this company is just super sketchy. But I also wouldn’t give this to children. It’s definitely preferred for children to be drinking water as neutral as possible (a 7.0pH). Fiji has a pH of around 7.7 making it slightly alkaline. Smart water is around 7.0. I think LifeWater and Core are around the same range as well.
I had a bottle of water that said, 'from the municipal water source of Kentland, Indiana'. That's in the middle of corn country... no doubt it had detectable herbicide or pesticide.
Water hack: adding a pinch of salt, lemon, or pinch of baking soda ups acidity and alkalinity. You don’t need to pay a company to make it for you, especially one that makes it in some sketch looking meth lab.
@@kyle857 it may not be worded the best but if you knew about ph youd know that lemons are acidic and baking soda is alkaline and youd know exactly what he meant. Either way, paying a ridiculously absurd amount for alkaline water, let alone bottled water in general, is completely useless and pointless. Even putting something in water to change ph is pointless. Its still an extremely diluted "solution" that wont take much to make it acidic when in the stomach. If you eat real food your body does what its supposed to though.
“Bottled water companies need to be more regulated” YES I mean many companies even do their own private testing, not the government We all know what Nestle does too
Globally!! Bottled water from the Tibetan Plateau Glacier isn't very regulated by the CCP. Tourists drink bottled water all the time. The filters for viruses has to be very fine. Viruses are smaller in size than bacteria. I commented on this when the virus first started to spread in China 2020. Interesting to see bottled water in the news, now.
So people do realize your not supposed to drink alkaline or ph balanced water all the time, nevemind give it to kids. Not to mention am I wrong or doesnt the human body do a good job of balancing most of this by itself. I mean dont get me wrong I drink ph, electrolyte water by body armor but only when it's hot and I'm working out in 90 degree weather and the heat index make it over 100 degrees. Things like this are only ment to be consumed when your actually working and sweating and I mean really sweating. These products are ment to help replace what you've lost, if you havent lost any then your only doing more harm then good. And correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't alkaline cause stomach problems and diarrhea, especially in children?
Can't change a tire? Call AAA. Cut your finger? Go to the Nurse. Hungry? Drive through. Alkaline water? 1 gal of spring water add juice from 1/2 of a key lime.
@@carlosandzs acid doesn't ever increase pH. A key lime might lower the pH less than a regular lime, but both contain acid which will lower the pH of the water regardless. Now if we're talking about the chemical lime (like the stuff in sink descaler products), that contains calcium hydroxide which is a base which, if added to water will increase the pH (but I don't think you'd necessarily want to drink that)
@@carlosandzs limes are acidic, by definition they neutralize alkalis. Acids Will mever increaee the alkalinity of something because they are by definition opposites. This is not math, 2 negatives don't make a positive, 2 acids don't make a basic solution.
I'm pretty sure they're using Sodium Hydroxide, a pipe cleaner, those containers are so familiar to me. I'm a volunteer specializing in Hazardous materials Edit, it might be a mixture of potassium and sodium hydroxide. Ionization can be a safer alternative to this.
You are correct, most likely Sodium Hydroxide, which is extremely caustic in high concentration. I am a water treatment engineer/chemical engineer. Get a reverse osmosis system.
@@america.rodriguez Yes, lye is Sodium Hydroxide, which in concentrated form has a pH of 14. When added to water, it forms Sodium and Hydroxide Ions, which in low concentration are not toxic. However, in higher concentrations it becomes toxic. It's basically the same as acid, but high pH, instead of low pH. Acidic solutions such as soft drinks are not relatively toxic, but in higher concentration s become highly acidic and toxic.

Bottled water for emergencies makes sense. And our bodies adjust the ph itself.

Chemist cost money. The guy was a former bouncer at a strip club with no science experience.
Maybe lol
It seems like what they’re saying is there is no FDA guidelines for this. Which just adds to the problem. I know people don’t like the government overreach but in some areas like our food companies won’t do the right thing unless they’re forced to. For example get qualified chemist to make food.
An actual chemist would NEVER participate in a sham like this...real alkaline water comes from a spring!
People keep acting like this is what PhD chemists do. It's not. $80-100K+ industrial chemists don't work on production lines, adding chemicals and testing pH of every batch of water. They set standards, create protocols, and develop procedures to ensure a standard outcome. in a larger facility, you might have a quality control person who oversees randomized product testing. But this is a very small facility. A literal mom and pop shop. They're lucky if they even had a consultant establish guidelines and procedures to follow and maybe answer questions on occasion. If procedures and training were in place, this man would have probably been an okay hire. He lacks a little common sense, but apparently, he figured that if the chemicals he was working with were harmful, he wouldn't have been left on his own. And just because this man didn't know about the chemical compounds, doesn't mean they were the wrong chemicals. Just may have been the wrong dosages. Just poor management all around.

The regulation that's really needed is better science education standards so people don't fall for alkaline water claims.
There's something else at issue here, I'm pretty sure, beginning with workers that have no real understanding of their jobs. A pH in the 8 range isn't that far away from neutral (7) and there are city water systems whose "normal" water is also as high as the mid-8 range. It _is_ better for infrastructure, especially metal pipe longevity, and probably for acid reflux sufferers as well. (My city, in contrast, spends a small fortune trying to lime its acidic water stocks just to reach the mid 6's.) Hyping alkaline water using other unproven claims is just standard American snake-oil sales tactics.
@@ReflectedMiles I suspect that better science education would give people a better understanding of pH and thus at least mitigate both of these issues. From what I remember my lessons on pH in high school chemistry were unsettlingly scant. I remembered them well enough for my brain to skeptical of alkaline water claims, but I know I'm an outlier on that account.

Why don't they do a investigation on why it's just children.
Great point!!
I agree, I assume it’s just cause they are smaller so their LD50 (lethal dose) would be lower-
but science isn’t built on assumptions
They have. It's already known that children's bodies have smaller organs, therefore they are unable to process certain things like adult bodies can. Hence, why the warning labels on over the counter medicines say "not recommended for children under 12." Or, they may different dosing requirements for children. That's also why they have children's medicine. I.e. Children's Tylenol, etc.
BECAUSE SOMEONE WANTS THEIR ORGANS. SEEMS LIKE THEIR LIVERS ARE THE PREFER ORGAN. Y'ALL FUNNY THOUGH 😂😂😂.
@@77seraphim77 Science is exactly built on assumptions, they just call them hypotheses
“ if I’m putting it into someone who’s ingesting it, I would assume it’s safe no matter what”
That is the dumbest logic I’ve heard in my entire life
Yup just for that powerful Dollar.
Yeah, by his logic, they could just drink the concentrate straight from the source and it would be the same as drinking just the water. WTF?
😳 How about the Vaccines 😳
I mean, the inverse makes sense, so he probably assume that the direct version would make sense as well. If something is poisonous, you probably shouldn't ingest any of it, even if it's a tiny, tiny amount. A "trace" amount of something very dangerous is still bad. And if something is completely safe - usually a bit more, or double, etc. of that thing is still fine. Like, for example, something random like a food - a banana let's say. One banana is safe, ergo, most people would also assume eating 6 bananas is still safe. Or if this was orange juice concentrate or something, added double the OJ concentrate would still be safe, just might taste weird. He was thinking along those lines. You can't blame the guy, it makes sense with many other food/drink items, so I can see why he'd think about it that way, especially given that he has no idea what's in that concentrate.
I mean, he was still wrong - but the owners were responsible for this ultimately. They were the one putting who knows what into the water, and telling an untrained guy that has NO IDEA what's in the "concentrate" and isn't a chemist, etc. - to just "put in more concentrate" was a horrendously stupid and irresponsible thing to do. They're the ones at fault here, not this poor goober that was probably being paid like 10 bucks an hour to dump some mystery liquid into bottled water for his boss.
In his defense, he doesn't have the education or training to know any better. He also probably assumed that the concentrate was just a buffer to bring up the pH to the proper level on his meter, and as long as he hit the right number or range on the meter it was all good no matter how much he added.
They added a random unlabeled concentrate to water and thought that was safe? 🤦🏼♀️
Lock him up
@King Domain doesn't matter where it came from. the guy mixing the chemicals had no science background and was not given any training at all. But the people running the company are mostly to blame for this happening. they kept their employee in the dark about what the concetrate wass so that later on they can use him like a meat sheild if criminal charges end up happening.

Here’s a tip: If something that is meant for human or animal consumption says “Alkaline” on the packaging, it really isn’t something you should think won’t hurt you in some way. After all, this is the same stuff that can be found in batteries so it’s like consuming a battery really if you think about it.
Why just because some battery’s have alkaline on the side?
and this is why you just get water filters in your home... eliminates plastic bottle use and way more convenient! and i don’t mean brita jugs which are last for much shorter, i mean filters attached in fridges or on the sink!
Look into berkey filters. An investment but worth it.
We have attached filters under our kitchen sink! Safer than this crap!
You need to do a double take on anything with the word "REAL" in the beginning of its name.
Or something that says “SMART”
That's true.
Oh man I’ve been drinking this water for years! I thought it was the best also! This company needs to be closed down and criminal charges need to be assessed!
And you dont feel sick?
Thats good if u dont
@@iloveamerica53 nope feel fine. 🤷🏼♀️If you listen to the story it was that particular batch that was made wrong. I think that family got those big bottles of water and we’re drinking it for more than a couple days.
Hope You Learned your lesson Quit falling for BS corporate companies dish out just eat Natura foods
dont risk it! no way,
@@killamilla702 yes!
Omg! I used to drink this water! I had horrible stomach problems and never knew why. Omg!
I tried to call this exact company over finding CHUNKS of plastic in the water but nobody even picked up the phone
Omg how scary!
Need jesus
Should have called the news.
Not a big deal, Considering the 💩 dissolved in it.
Can we say "Boot Leg" ....yes we can. That water plant facility looks super sketch! 😬
It was probably legit alkaline they are giving them. Not gonna say the parents werent dumb either tho.
It was a self storage unit...
@Sushiirull You laughing? You don't think there isn't really such a thing as an alkalinized water fella? Stop being damn idiots thinking that unnatural liquid is better than plain 7.0pH water. Of course there are chemicals they add in to make that pH high.
@Sushiirull I've got a legit PHD in bullshitery too. Does that qualify me enough for ya? Got my internet qualifications right here. You see that? Thats more legit than yours.
@Sushiirull Literally the most non-chemist reply you could ever make is to claim to be a chemist instead of talking about the solvents they add in it. Please enlighten about how the water pH goes basic with your vast amount of knowledge of alkali earth metals and the other elements or compounds they might have added, oh mr. man of specialized authority!
Just remember when you pay for that fancy shmancy water in a plastic bottle it's coming from a guy like this guy at 3:46 who squirts chemicals into jugs of water in a nasty room...
Look at the cool bottle though 🚰🧴
In, general, alkaline water gives some people stomach aches or diarrhea. I wouldn't give it to my lil ones. If anything, try to get near perfectly "neutral" ph water. Fiji is the best I've found. 👍🏼
Depends on the person drinking it and the other things they add to their system. For me smart water seems to be best. I wouldnt give my children alkaline water.
I personally love alkaline water! I think that this company is just super sketchy. But I also wouldn’t give this to children. It’s definitely preferred for children to be drinking water as neutral as possible (a 7.0pH). Fiji has a pH of around 7.7 making it slightly alkaline. Smart water is around 7.0. I think LifeWater and Core are around the same range as well.

Most bottled water brands are just tap water.
I had a bottle of water that said, 'from the municipal water source of Kentland, Indiana'. That's in the middle of corn country... no doubt it had detectable herbicide or pesticide.
Tap water would have been safer, actually .
It sucks we don't have good water in America
@@biggusdickus9809 By what measure? I have a well and the water is fantastic, way better that most bottled water.
@@lantrick Well water is definitely better than city water but even that can have pesticide run off. I have well water too.
Water hack: adding a pinch of salt, lemon, or pinch of baking soda ups acidity and alkalinity. You don’t need to pay a company to make it for you, especially one that makes it in some sketch looking meth lab.
Ups the acidity and alkalinity. Think about that.
@@kyle857 it may not be worded the best but if you knew about ph youd know that lemons are acidic and baking soda is alkaline and youd know exactly what he meant. Either way, paying a ridiculously absurd amount for alkaline water, let alone bottled water in general, is completely useless and pointless. Even putting something in water to change ph is pointless. Its still an extremely diluted "solution" that wont take much to make it acidic when in the stomach. If you eat real food your body does what its supposed to though.
I knew exactly what he meant 🤷♂️
Please explain how you increase acidity and alkalinity all at once...... I'm intrigued..... 🤔🤣
good thing he put or, if he put and i would be dying
“Bottled water companies need to be more regulated” YES I mean many companies even do their own private testing, not the government
We all know what Nestle does too
Globally!! Bottled water from the Tibetan Plateau Glacier isn't very regulated by the CCP. Tourists drink bottled water all the time. The filters for viruses has to be very fine. Viruses are smaller in size than bacteria.
I commented on this when the virus first started to spread in China 2020.
Interesting to see bottled water in the news, now.
I love how he said “you don’t make the water it’s just there.” If anything you clean it and/or use limes.
Wait so their daughter is violently ill and they don’t take her to the hospital until she becomes unresponsive?
The understanding I got from that is that it happened so quickly. From throwing up to becoming unresponsive.
I'm so glad I grew up on the neighbors hose water
Only buy bottled water when I have no choice. Or by sparkling the tap is fine it's regulated more than these bottled water idiots..
I’m glad I never bought Alkaline water because I have been eyeing it even though it sounds like a damn battery anyway 😭
That wasn’t alkaline water that was a marketing strategy promoting fake alkaline water that is made with stuff like baking soda
That wasn't alkaline water they were taking it saying it was real
Sprinkle baking soda in a glass of trusted water. There, you have alkaline water.
They are not all the same. Anything that puts chemicals in your food or water is bad.
@@biggusdickus9809 does that includes salt and sugar?
So people do realize your not supposed to drink alkaline or ph balanced water all the time, nevemind give it to kids.
Not to mention am I wrong or doesnt the human body do a good job of balancing most of this by itself.
I mean dont get me wrong I drink ph, electrolyte water by body armor but only when it's hot and I'm working out in 90 degree weather and the heat index make it over 100 degrees.
Things like this are only ment to be consumed when your actually working and sweating and I mean really sweating.
These products are ment to help replace what you've lost, if you havent lost any then your only doing more harm then good.
And correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't alkaline cause stomach problems and diarrhea, especially in children?
Can't change a tire? Call AAA.
Cut your finger? Go to the Nurse.

Alkaline water? 1 gal of spring water add juice from 1/2 of a key lime.
Lime is acidic. Not alkaline.
@@catherinegreen8440 it is acidic. A "Key Lime" is comparatively lower in acidity than a regular lime. This increases the PH making it more alkaline.
@@carlosandzs acid doesn't ever increase pH. A key lime might lower the pH less than a regular lime, but both contain acid which will lower the pH of the water regardless. Now if we're talking about the chemical lime (like the stuff in sink descaler products), that contains calcium hydroxide which is a base which, if added to water will increase the pH (but I don't think you'd necessarily want to drink that)
what?
@@carlosandzs limes are acidic, by definition they neutralize alkalis. Acids Will mever increaee the alkalinity of something because they are by definition opposites. This is not math, 2 negatives don't make a positive, 2 acids don't make a basic solution.
I'm pretty sure they're using Sodium Hydroxide, a pipe cleaner, those containers are so familiar to me. I'm a volunteer specializing in Hazardous materials
Edit, it might be a mixture of potassium and sodium hydroxide.
Ionization can be a safer alternative to this.
You are correct, most likely Sodium Hydroxide, which is extremely caustic in high concentration. I am a water treatment engineer/chemical engineer. Get a reverse osmosis system.
@Blue Skies No not cyanide or Borax, but Sodium Hydroxide.
Sodium hydroxide is LYE. 😮💀
Wait are they using lye 😳
@@america.rodriguez Yes, lye is Sodium Hydroxide, which in concentrated form has a pH of 14. When added to water, it forms Sodium and Hydroxide Ions, which in low concentration are not toxic. However, in higher concentrations it becomes toxic. It's basically the same as acid, but high pH, instead of low pH. Acidic solutions such as soft drinks are not relatively toxic, but in higher concentration s become highly acidic and toxic.

Not "just to make money." But to make a living, buy food, clothing, a place to live, etc. "Some people" do things to "make money" that sometimes end up hurting other people. Intentionally or unintentionally.
@@anotherpointofview222 is your implication that people who harm others unintentionally, shouldn’t be held accountable for their actions?
They aren’t “getting away” with anything. Obviously the water was recalled.
@@elyse443 Just the fact it was prepared in a makeshift factory was “getting a away” long enough.
WOW! Makes me think twice about the water from the tap... It might not be so unsafe after all.
@@-.00__I__o8o__I__00. That's the way the earth hs been doing it since the beginning of time. Great idea.
Your tap water is safer than that crap someone puts in a bottle. Just buy a water filter.

that water mixer should also be charged for his role in this.
I guess the first clue something was off about this water was that it is called “real” water.
I'm glad you noticed that trend in our society.
Almost everything is false and being sold as real.
This is what deregulation looks like, folks. Regulations are a good thing. Rolling back safety regulations leads to more situations exactly like this.
How would more regulations help when the video clearly said no one was inspecting the place. More inspectors would be better than more regulations.

Mildly alkaline water is fine, but there is no need to have excessively high ph.

And fluoride chlorine and kidney stones ....

Tell that to the people of Flint Michigan. I'm just glad I live in the country and don't have tap water. I have clean well water that I use a water softener and filter on the clay soil I have at my house does a great job of filtering the water before it enters the well it's like drinking out of a fresh spring. The only problem I've ran into is I did run out of water one summer during a bad drought and had to limit my usage.
This is not the only brand that does this either. And definitely not only to children. I am a 38 year old female who gave another brand to both my cat and myself a couple months ago. We both became very lethargic, weak, and severely nauseated. I have been monitoring water type and brand very closely since. I pray that this information spread sooner rather than later.
Just use the tap. People are crazy for buying bottles of water.
@@RyanNelson0402 When I lived in Phoenix in the mid-1990’s virtually no one drank the tap water. Every grocery store had a water filter, often outside built into their building, so residents could buy filtered water 24 hrs. a day. Please don’t tell people that they should all drink their tap water. I was used to good water from California but I didn’t drink tap water in Phoenix either.
Tap water is one of the worst. If you'd ever been in a city water tank you'd probably never drink it again. Invest in a berkey water filter. Worth every penny.
@@ljones98391 so what you're saying is when KNOWN situations happen, THAT is the best time to drink from tap, otherwise..drink from the tap.
They fixed that problem. I've been there. And tap water for the majority of everyone has been fine. I mean, we still have a populace that's going strong.
As well as well water doing ok also. As well as the fact people can do exactly what you just stated they did..use filters. SO...do just like my grandmother who bought her house in 92, and use filters because she didn't much like the tap water, but wasn't out there just buying up bottled water either. Cause..ya know, we all grew up on real water and are doing just fine. so is she 84 and still having a part time job because retirement is boring...and drinking tap water.
Bottled water for emergencies makes sense.
And our bodies adjust the ph itself.
Everything you ingest goes into your stomach ACIDS first. that perfectly ph water..because acidic because of your stomach acids. It was a useless buy.
Your body adjusts how it needs to. It's a natural thing that happens.
it's nice to want to do better. Just throw some extra common sense based on research in there.
And it's nice to want to support people, like you're doing, but realize when people need a truth.
Drinking bottled water is an added risk with no real payoff.
Not meant to be mean. meant to be just truth.
What brand was it??
When it comes to children talk to a pediatrician and child nutritionist. We are in modern times talk to the people whose business it is to know how to keep your children healthy.
Pediatricians prescribe toxic meds on a regular basis. Move to the country get a water well and filter it yourself. Live off the land, trust no one.
@@erinwill6743 exactly. That’s why I’m def not listening to you over a doc.
@@francdollar163 Doctors know very little about nutrition (not much taught in medical school) and they peddle whatever big pharma provides. Not any safer than a witch doctor peddling plant medicine - maybe less safe. Read a statics that tells it all -99% of all legal pain killers (narcotics that are legal) are sold in North America! We have a real problem here. Want a pill for everything. That is well under 400 million people out of 7.5 billion are more!
A few years ago I became a water afficaiando. I would get all different brands even tried this stuff. Long story short is that despite tasting all these different kinds of expensive waters it eventually lead me back to distilled water. No water taste better than regular distilled water.
To this day, Flint still doesn't have clean water to drink.
People forget that I guess because there was no little rich white girl getting sick.
