    In 2023, Hinton announced on Thanksgiving that he and Dench had gone from “family” to business partners, launching an alkaline black water called BlackMP.

    What the hell is “alkaline black water” ???

      Like the other person said, a scam, but to give the claim…

      Black water or alkaline black water is power-packed with minerals such as magnesium, calcium, sodium, and potassium.

      Sounds like my well water if you boil off some of the water.

      Its distinct colour is attained by the elevated alkaline water pH that ranges between eight to nine.

      PH doesn’t change the color. A thing that changes PH may also change the color but the PH itself is not responsible.
