Karan Johar, on being asked ‘Do you drink black water?’ He replied- “Sab peete hai mai bhi peeta hu. Healthy hai peena zaruri hai.”
Ranvijay Singha said “I moved to black alkaline water some time back and I’ve been extremely happy with it as it is multifunctional and more than just water. Its pH is more than eight which reduces the acid built-up in the body and the minerals flush out the toxins and detoxify the body. Never thought even water can be black in colour.”
Celebrity Nutritionist Pooja Makhija said “Staying healthy, staying hydrated with boosted immunity is quite the need of the hour. India’s first black alkaline water has 70 essential minerals which are derived from the core of the Earth and all these minerals have high potency, help you detoxify, reduce acidity and stay hydrated for longer duration.”
Celebrity Nutritionist Yasmin Karachiwala said, “As Evocus is loaded with minerals and high alkalinity, it continuously flushes out toxins from our body and provides detoxification. I started using it 30 days ago and I surely see a difference.”
This surge in popularity is not just a fleeting fad. Black alkaline water stands out in the crowded beverage market with clinical research backing its benefits. Studies have shown that black alkaline water can enhance hydration and reduce exercise-induced fatigue, it maintains the body’s gut health, and detoxification, making it a perfect fit for the active lifestyles of celebrities.
The appeal of black alkaline water among celebrities can be attributed to its functional benefits beyond simple hydration. As the demand for functional beverages grows, more individuals are seeking drinks that offer additional health advantages. Black alkaline water fits this demand perfectly, offering a unique composition that supports overall well-being.
In an era where health and fitness are paramount, the rise of functional beverages is undeniable. Black alkaline water’s unique properties, including its enhanced hydration capabilities and ability to combat fatigue, make it an attractive choice for those committed to maintaining peak physical condition.
