Alka pH-Caps Original: alkaline capsules with bicarbonates

The difference between Alka® Drops and Alka® Tabs is that with Alka® Drops the body itself produces bicarbonate via the stomach wall cells, Alka® Tabs contains bicarbonate that only dissolves in the intestines and is absorbed into the blood via the intestinal wall (so direct versus indirect supply of bicarbonate).

In principle you can use Alka® Tabs without advice from your doctor. However, you can always consult your doctor about using the Alka® products.

No, you can simply take Alka® Tabs tablets during or after a meal. The gastro-resistant coating around the tablets ensures that they only gradually dissolve in the intestines. This is a very effective and safe way to add bicarbonate to the body. Note: you cannot take Alka® Tabs with basic water (water Alka® Drops) as basic water will affect the coating of Alka® Tabs.

Alka® Tabs Calcium consists of calcium carbonate in pure form. The tablet dissolves in the intestines and enters the blood through the intestinal wall. There, by reaction with carbonic acid, calcium carbonate is converted into calcium bicarbonate, thereby increasing the alkaline buffers. Pure ionized calcium is also added to the body, which is good for the bones. Alka® Tabs Original is a tablet that already consists of sodium bicarbonate and potassium bicarbonate. This is directly absorbed into the blood via the intestinal wall. For people who are not allowed to have sodium or potassium, or people who suffer from osteoporosis, Alka® Tabs Calcium is a good choice. Alka® Tabs Magnesium consists of magnesium carbonate in pure form. The tablet dissolves in the intestines and enters the blood through the intestinal wall. There, by reaction with carbonic acid, the magnesium carbonate is converted into magnesium bicarbonate, whereby the basic buffers are increased. Pure ionized magnesium is also added to the body. Alka® Tabs Magnesium is a good choice for stress, muscle complaints or insomnia.

It doesn't matter which shape you choose. The deacidifying effect of all 3 types is the same. The composition is different because some people prefer to get more Calcium or Magnesium. If you would like to know which tablet suits you best, please contact our coaches.

Alka® Drops can be combined with Alka® Tabs. Both products have the same goal: deacidification by adding bicarbonate to the body. The difference is that they do this in a different way. Alka® Tabs contains bicarbonate. Alka® Drops ensure that the body itself produces extra bicarbonates. A combination increases the dosage of bicarbonates and accelerates the deacidification process.

Yes, children from 12 years and older can take one tablet a day.

Acidification and deacidification is a continuous process. You can permanently deacidify. When the symptoms improve, you can keep a lower dose.

2 or 3 glasses of water with alkaline drops in combination with 2 or 3 tablets of Alka® Tabs is a great way to deacidify your body
