Re: Alkalizing Drink...


Just so we are clear - It is not Pickling lime that is used in the drink; it is a few tablespoons of lime water which is made by placing a tablespoon of Pickling Lime (Calcium Hydroxide) in a gallon of distilled water and mixing.

If you have drank alcoholic beverages or soft drinks, you have probably drank water treated with calcium hydroxide...

And of course for making pickles and other pickled foods.

It is used extensively in the food industries - among many others, such as sewage and water treatment, and dentistry\medicine. It is also used in supplements as I have pointed out on several occaisions.

# In Native American and Latin American cooking, calcium hydroxide is called "cal". Corn cooked with cal becomes nixtamal which significantly increases its nutrition value, and is also considered tastier and easier to digest.
# In chewing Betel nut or coca leaves, calcium hydroxide is usually chewed alongside to keep the alkaloid stimulants chemically available for absorption by the body
# Similarly, Native Americans traditionally chewed tobacco leaves with calcium hydroxide derived from burnt shells to enhance the effects.

You can see that the reaction with acids causes an increased efficacy of the product used in these cases above... from

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_hydroxide

Lime water is traditionally used to make tortillas and in extracting sugar from sugar beets as well.

You will find the above information and more in the debates... some of the better debates are in the acid-alkaline debate forum where both sides have a bit more of a level playing field - moderator bias exists in the private forums - to a lessor extent in the debate forums.

Perhaps the bigger issue here is the potential for harm by people who believe that if a little is good, more is better...
