Best Water To Buy At The Grocery Store - Alkaline, Flavored, Electrolyte, & More!

[@c.p.341]

I love to watch your videos because they reinforce my knowledge through out the years about food ingredients and nutrition facts that it started my journey when I was pregnant 19 years ago. I have been shopping for my family paying attention to ingredients that I can’t pronounce and I was terrified to find out the stuff that is in our food. My kids now teens think I was crazy but now they can see for themselves how the choices I made a while back have paid off. Thanks God they are growing up strong and healthy. So sad that most foods are made for business purposes. Then we ask ourselves why there is so many diseases and obesity in this country. Terrible!!! Thank you for your great videos. !!!!

One of the most important water videos on the internet. I drink Deer Park spring water and Giant brand spring water in plastic bottles sadly. I am very grateful you mentioned the toxicity of splenda/sucrolose and I would add aspartame is just as bad. I was surprised natural flavors actually means UN natural flavors and should be completely avoided if possible. But this level of food industry deceit does not surprise me. They actually put a genuine poison, aspartame , in the food supply because it is so addictive and cheap. Thank you for the fantastic information. Keep up the great work.

Bobby: Have you considered simply adding ½ a teaspoon of baking soda to a gallon of purified or distilled water and shaking it vigorously to ensure it mixes in completely to generate very inexpensive alkaline water? Then store it in you favorite glass drinking container in the fridge to take with you on the go.

Make sure the baking soda is aluminum free.

@justinpeck2217 actually that's not true they both can have aluminum. I buy none aluminated soda and powder.

[@ProperHumanDiet101]

@@Ricci-om3mn They put the non-aluminum in the baking soda is just a sale ploy … there’s really actually no aluminum in it, it just says “ aluminum free.” Just like chicken will say “hormone free” when in actuality it’s illegal to use hormones on any animal sourced food in the United States. It’s really no different than putting a heart on the box of Cheerios, saying it’s heart healthy! I could make a product like milk and write “aluminum free” on it. Then people would think it’s healthier than normal milk because it says “aluminum free.” It’s a marketing trick without lying ….

[@robertlaufer799]

Thanks for an informative video, as usual. But I’m surprised you recommended purchasing electrolyte additives. As a physician and runner, I would suggest adding to a gallon of water: 1 cup lemon juice , 1/2 cup of honey, 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. Much healthier. The information you share with your viewers is so important. Keep up the great work!

Spindrift really is a great brand! Just tried it after quitting soda and by far the best tasting Sparkling water. It tastes similar to getting a glass of sparkling water and squeezing the fruit in them. Has a very lite sweetness from the juice but doesn’t coat your throat. Definitely worth it.

[@Pert348]

Hi Bobby. Thank you for your videos. You have revolutionized my grocery shopping! When I saw this video, I was a little shocked that you have bought into the alkaline water hype of the early 2010s and actually have an alkalizing home water filter and felt compelled to leave a comment. What do you think your stomach acid does to the alkaline water? When you’re as young as you are (mid 40s), the alkalinity probably won’t hurt you because your produce enough stomach acid to neutralize the alkalinity and it is just a hype at this point. When you are older, however, and may have low stomach acid and digestion issues as many older folks do, then the alkaline water is just like chewing antacid tablets during or after a meal. It interferes with digestion, interferes with nutrient and medication absorption, and creates heartburn in some folks. I am not a fan of drinking acid water but plain water is what nature has intended for us to drink. You may have seen those tests where they put a piece of fruit in alkaline water and show you how it will stay fresh and not rot for many, many hours vs one not placed in alkaline water and from that, they conclude it keeps your cells young. That may happen to a few cells that absorb the water right out of the mouth but then again you have the stomach acid that will either neutralize it or IT will disrupt the digestive process. Trust me you do not want the fruit to stay fresh going thru your digestive tract any way. And unless your were directly injecting yourself with something alkaline, there is no way for you to increase your body’s PH thru ingestion of alkaline water. Ask a doctor! Please make a video and let us know what you think. ❤️

[@marielramirez2029]

Thank you! My dad bought into this too. I did alkaline only water for one semester and it was horrible.

Bobby, if you visit Hot Springs, Arkansas, you can go up in a tower there and the tour guide will tell you all about a Chicago Mob guy that started buying Mountain Vally water. He would send his guys to buy that water and bring it to him in Chicago as it was all he drank. He, also, purportedly stayed at The Arlington Hotel and Spa because it had and still does have a natural hot springs bath house in the bottom of the hotel. As do a select few of places there including a rehabilitation facility that is still there as well. By the way, if you bring your own container you can get free hot or cold hot springs water from the natural springs there on the main street of the town! People love the water!

I've had water delivery for years. It was a supposed spring water, but just a month ago, I upgraded to Mountain Valley. I wondered if it was all hype, but I've really been enjoying it. It legitimately tastes fresher, lighter maybe...It's wonderful. Expensive, but wonderful. I'm not going back now.

[@lisadawley]

I loved the flavor of Mountain Valley and also had it delivered. After a month or so, I started getting what felt like a urinary tract infection. I never get UTI so it was strange. It lasted off and on for months. Then I traveled out of town and realized that feeling went away. When I came home, it started up again right away. I finally realized it was the minerals in Mountain Valley causing the issue. As soon as I stopped drinking it, the problem went away and never came back again.

[@PalJoey-rm2yh]

7.0 pH is neutral. Therefore anything over 7.0 is : "alkaline." But we're talking very tiny degrees of measurement and I can't imagine it means much. Anything between 6.5 pH and 7.8 pH is perfectly acceptable. Chicago water comes in around 7.4 - 7.7; New York City water out of the tap is around 6.6 - 6.8. Further, pH is only half the story. There is "hardness" to consider. More reading is needed.

Bobby doesn't know too much about water, I just watched a video and there's plenty of other things to measure instead of just looking at PH

Bobby, do more research. Do you really think that your alkaline water is going to change the acidity of your stomach acids?

With that said, I want water and just the most pure water that nature has.

Target carries the Vital Proteins Collagen Water, I just bought two packs of four this week and they’re on sale until today for $14.99/pk. I love it!

[@denisemarie7991]

Looove your videos...and man i realllly wanted to like Spindrift! I bought 2 different flavors, no one in my house liked either of them. They reminded me of the alcoholic seltzers... the blackberry one was ok. I felt there was not enough bubbles. Wasnt very carbonated... thanks for the info about natural flavors tho... the search continues.

[@JessicaBlack2406]

What brand is your reverse osmosis filtration system that goes underneath your sink?

[@ana-pi6ut]

I would like to know too.

[@Bella88877]

Yes me too

[@carlbowles1808]

Thanks for addresng the natural flavors issue the labeling is deceptive. Do video on bulk bottled waters like arrowhead , crystal geyser and store brands most frequently purchased because of lower cost. Thank you for the information that helps people avoid getting ripped off 👍.

I would love to know Bobby's grocery bill each month - assuming he actually buys all the premium, organic, grass fed, pasture raised stuff he endorses as the best.

[@gretagordon9512]

I buy all of that and my grocery bill is $600 a month for a family of 3. There are alternatives to meat. We don’t eat meat at every meal. We rarely eat out, and I make as much as I can from scratch. So $600 covers 3 meals a day, 7 days a week and snacks (like fruit or crackers).

[@alwaysbanned4812]

he isnt buying on a budget like most viewers, so is bill would be larger than anyones. People watching should know how to budget, even with these items, you do learn which ones you can or do need to buy each week or wait the next. And it comes out about the same price. Cheers

Greta Gordon I took meat out of my diet and now I'm saving 500 a month.... crazy.

I love essentia water. So delicious and hydrating!

[@lizjo7213]

I saw Sebastian Maniscalco drinking Essentia water and that was enough to convince me, I love it...

[@corporatethreads]

Okay Bobby I just finished watching the video, and I'm thrilled to say that I drink Mountain Valley and Harmless Harvest already! I always felt (because of the research that I've done) that these two were really the top of the line, and they really don't even compare to the others!! Now that I hear it from you, I know that I've made the right decisions! You are to all of us a 100% trusted and very reliable and honest source! Thank you again!

[@lockergr]

NYCgirl Any other tips? I know the Berkeley water filter is supposed to be good, but right now I'm using a zero water filter. I don't have money to buy bottle products, though I would love to be able to buy that collagen water.

[@corporatethreads]

@@lockergr Oh my gosh, how sweet of you to ask! As far as your filtered water.... I think that's great what you're using!My only tips are to always be an educated consumer. You'd be very surprised to learn about the way things that we eat are really made and what they are made from! I would strongly suggest that you make anything you possibly can all by yourself (most things are really not very hard or even time-consuming)...... that way you know exactly what you're getting! Lastly, I would suggest that if you eat meat, fruits and vegetables try your best to get it from a farm (especially the meat, chicken, etc! That is where the freshest meats and everything else comes from , and also the healthiest and best tasting as well! I hope that helps, and I wish you the best! :)

[@lockergr]

NYCgirl Thanks so much! I'm good about preparing things from whole foods and avoiding anything processed, but I need to get more on board with buying things from farms and farmers' markets. Wanted to actually try out going to a fish market as well. Have wanted to make my own bone broth and coconut yogurt in my Instant Pot, but since it's only me, I struggle to eat it all up (and have hence avoided making it). Thanks for the reminders about these things. I always like learning from others. Best health wishes to you!

Hi Bobby, love your videos! Just wanted to add that La Croix PURE has no natural flavors. It's also no flavor

[@BobbyParrish]

ha!! i have no heard of that on

[@drjcraps7963]

Keep the videos coming. What about distilled water?? What about using PH drops in your water?

[@chriscarter45able]

Can you do a video about collagen? Why supplement and what kind.

[@AstronomyGuru84]

No more propel for me. I'm going to try Spindrift. One of my weaknesses is diet soda. I'm challenging myself this week to go without soda. Hoping to kick the habit completely and find healthier alternatives.

[@kerrytwite4462]

I like TruLemon for creating your own flavored water.

[@tanyahouston5635]

Yup, and a little monk fruit, tah da, lemonade! I keep it at my desk at work.

Can you do a video about gluten free pasta and flours?

[@lenagreen2979]

Thanks for the videos.learning so much. I think drinking when your thirsty on a normal basis then if working out drinking accordingly. but sometimes people drink so much they wash out electrolytes than we need. Loved your shampoo video. 😊

[@dixieiler5071]

Would you add a list that shows what ingredients to watch for when we go shopping so we'll know what products to not buy.

[@officialJerryKing]

Awesome video man 😎

[@LNSMITH-iq6ye]

Nothing beats my tap water (best in the state) and some fresh organic fruit ✌

[@euenfheiejrj]

Where do you live? I live in Chicago near him and the tap water is great here in my opinion and the research I’ve done.

[@jrec2384]

You approve box water because its not in plastic bottle. There is mostly likely a poly based coating on the cardboard. Aluminum cans have a thin poly liner on the interior of the can so the metal doesn’t react with the liquid overtime.

[@lizjo7213]

that's what I said as soon as I saw that box....

[@pamelaswain558]

Thank you!!! I love all your videos. I was drinking a “healthy drink” while watching this video and I looked at the ingredients 🤯it has 2 preservatives and surculose. I just spent $50. On 24 cans of this so called healthy drink. 😭
