Most alkaline waters start out as ordinary water, then get boosted to a pH of 9 to 10 through a process. ãlkalife is different. It is naturally alkaline and naturally mineral rich, shaped slowly by limestone and quartz. Nothing added, nothing processed.
As alkaline water grows in popularity, more brands are “creating” it artificially, running ordinary water through ionisers or adding minerals to lift the pH to 9 or 10. Truly naturally alkaline water is rare anywhere in the world. ãlkalife is one of them.
ãlkalife draws from a limestone and quartz aquifer in the Blue Mountains, NSW. As the water filters slowly through the rock over many years, it becomes alkaline on its own and picks up naturally occurring bicarbonate, calcium, magnesium and silica along the way. The alkalinity and the minerals arrive together, the way nature intended.
Artificially alkalised waters usually start as tap, spring or purified water often starting off acidic. An ioniser or added alkaline agents then raise the pH to 9 or 10 so it can be marketed as “alkaline”. The high number looks impressive on the shelf, but the alkalinity is engineered, not natural, and it is not paired with the same naturally occurring mineral profile.
The same question, answered honestly, feature by feature.
| ãlkalife naturally alkaline mineral water |
Artificially alkalised water pH 9 to 10, ioniser or mineral added |
|
|---|---|---|
| How it becomes alkaline | Naturally, as it filters through limestone and quartz | Raised by a machine or added agents to hit pH 9 to 10 |
| Alkaline at the source | Yes, occurs on its own underground | No, often starts acidic, then processed |
| Naturally occurring minerals | Bicarbonate, calcium, magnesium and silica | Often stripped then partly re-added, or absent |
| Rich in silica | Each litre supplies your daily recommended silica intake | Typically low or none |
| Alkaline electrolytes | Higher than the average Australian spring water brand | Varies, depends on what is added back |
| Anything added or processed | Nothing added. Not manufactured, mineral added or ionised | Yes, ionised or dosed to lift the pH |
| Taste | Soft and smooth, 3 Star Superior Taste Award | Can taste flat or harsh from processing |
| Track record | Australia's original, trusted since 2002 | Many are recent entrants riding the trend |
A high pH is easy to manufacture. Naturally alkaline, naturally mineral rich water is not.
Silica supports glowing skin, healthy hair and strong nails. Each litre of ãlkalife supplies your daily recommended intake.
ãlkalife carries more electrolytes than the average Australian spring water brand, so you rehydrate and recover better.
A natural source of antioxidants that help minimise oxidative damage, all occurring on their own in the water.
Choose water that was born alkaline, not lifted to a number in a factory. Naturally alkaline, naturally mineral rich, and trusted by thousands of Australians since 2002.
