The worst one I saw was some human-shaped piece of garbage telling people that cancer is actually a fungus and drinking alkaline water will kill that fungus. And if the twelve thousand dollar alkalinization machine is too expensive, they also sell bottled alkaline water.

The "wook" thing? What is that, a typo?

People who insist on alkaline water (and other such nonsense) deserve exactly what they get: no benefits and empty wallets.
The charlatans who peddle the stuff, though. They can go right to hell.

I heard a generous spritz of lemon in alkaline water greatly improves the taste.

I was about to explain how water alkalinity is pretty important to environmental scientists (and probably a few more groups that I don't know about).
And then I googled it.
And now I'm even more disappointed in humanity than I was before

Care to elaborate? I did me a Google but I don't think I'm looking for what you're looking for.

Oh god, okay, no, all I saw was talking about alkaline water being good as a pH buffer for stuff like acid rain etc.
