CORE Hydration has a typical pH of 7.4 — slightly alkaline.
CORE Hydration is marketed as a balanced water designed to match the body's natural pH. It is ultra-purified through a seven-stage filtration process, then re-mineralized with an electrolyte blend (calcium, magnesium, potassium) to a target pH of 7.4.
CORE's seven-stage filtration removes minerals and contaminants down to a near-zero baseline.
Calcium, magnesium and potassium are added back in precise ratios to deliver consistent buffering and lift pH above neutral.
The formula targets pH 7.4 — the same pH as healthy human blood, which is the marketing positioning.
Yes. CORE Hydration is FDA-compliant and the pH 7.4 target sits well inside the regulator-recommended range.
CORE Hydration targets pH 7.4 — the same as healthy human blood.
Slightly. At pH 7.4 it is just above neutral. It is not a high-pH alkaline water like Essentia (9.5+).
CORE targets a specific pH of 7.4 with a tuned electrolyte blend; Smartwater starts from distillation and adds a simpler electrolyte mix, ending at pH 6.5–7.5.
