Hi Richard,

Thanks for your interesting question.

Waters differ in terms of origin, mineral content… and pH. While pure water might have a pH of 7 (i.e. neutral), this is not the case for all waters, the pH of which depends on the water’s origin. Indeed the pH of different waters generally ranges from 4.5 to 8.5 – with 1.0-6.9 being acidic and 7.1-14 being alkaline.
There is no health-based guideline value for the pH of drinking water as it does not pose a risk to the health of consumers. Nor is pH a significant factor affecting the taste of water.
