The alkaline water they sell at the grocery nearby has potassium in it. Companies sell potassium drops you can put in regular water. If you're running a little acidic it can increase your pep but even taking a potassium supplement can do that. Alternative practitioners are more making the diet more alkaline producing. BTW, with some people that can be a focus on vegetables particularly green leafys and then there are some people that meat actually makes them more alkaline. It's like there are two species of humans on the planet.
