On the Essentia water label, it makes a point of saying “9.5pH or high.” Why is this marketed as being nutritious?

PathtoExile said it perfectly.

They pretty much pray on people who do not understand pH values and what they mean. The higher the pH value, the more increasing alkalinity is (very basic and not acidic). If it is a lower value, it is more acidic. Being very basic will not have any noticeable affect, but if it is acidic it can damage your teeth over time. All in all, its false advertisement and it has no extra nutritional value because of a higher pH value.
