How Does An Alkaline Water Filter Work?
What is an alkaline water filter? Well, a good alkaline water filter works to filter out potentially harmful contaminants like microplastics, chlorine, heavy metals, bacteria and chemicals while retaining essential life-sustaining natural electrolytes, turning your drinking water into alkaline mineral water that hydrates you quickly and efficiently at the cellular level.
