Alkalizing booster drops vs sodium carbonate?

[RRK]

So I found this alkalizing booster that says it has a ph of 12.25. Its already made for ingesting so should be safe. Can you guys think of any reason this might not be as good as sodium carbonate?

They sell it on amazon for about $6.

Active Ingredients CAW Micelle Water 99.3%
Sodium Metasilicate 87.5%
Sulfated Castor Oil 11.5%
CAW Micelle 0.39
Refined Lignite 0.23%
Calcium Chloride 0.4%
Magnesium Sulfate 0.4%

Willard Water is a very dilute solution containing the above electrolytes. During the patented process of preparing Willard Water the CAW micelle is created, causing the formation of "a catalyst that alters the structure of water, making water behave in a manner that heretofore has not been reported in the literature" as stated by Dr. Willard.
Willard Water has been tested and analyzed by many reputable laboratories, including the FDA, and ALWAYS found to be non-toxic, non-corrosive, non-mutagenic, and non-carcinogenic. Today Willard Water is still produced by Dr. Willard's family business using state of the art mixing, filling and processing, FDA approved facilities. Consistency, purity, and cleanliness are always maintained throughout the production process. It is the ORIGINAL and ONLY PATENTED Catalyst Altered Water.

7.2.1 Human data

7.2.1.1 Adults

There is no specific toxic oral
dose, because the concentration of corrosive
solutions and the potency of caustic effect
vary widely. The concentration or the pH of
the solution may indicate the potential for
serious injury. The titratable alkalinity is
a better predictor of corrosive effect than
the pH (Olson, 1994). Application to human
skin (250mg sodium metasilicate for 24 hours)
caused a severe reaction (RTECS, 1996).

7.3 Carcinogenicity

An increased risk of squamous cell oesophageal cancer is
considered possible following ingestion of corrosive agents
such as sodium metasilicate (Gorman et al., 1992).
