This is another thing my physician totally disagreed with. He said that while plain water is the best thing you can drink, adding a little lemon or lime or cucumber to it makes no difference. He said that you drink the water and about 2 seconds later it hits your stomach and mixes with all of the "chime" (liquid that helps with digestion) in your stomach and all of the acid and other food, and has nothing to do with "chemical balance". He said the important thing is to get in the liquid. Now I'm not saying he's right for everyone, but he is my doctor whom I trust.
