Re: Dramamine for longer bottom times?

"why does lemon water help? Lemon water would be acidic, not alkaline."

The effect it has on your body has nothing to do with its natural acidity. Lemon juice is extremely alkalizing. The citric acid becomes citrate after digestion, which is alkalizing, but, you would need lot's of it and preferably just lemon juice and no water to get a good effect from it, alkaline foods and supplements act as a CO2 buffer so you can start the apnea with CO2 which kicks in Dive Reflex and other benefits yet you have the hemoglobin releasing the O2 in the blood, must use a relaxed breath up each time though.
