Objective: to carry out a comparative study of PH in swimmers, Ibarra, Ecuador. Method: Descriptive observational, the study population consisted of 34 swimmers. Results and Conclusion: The comparative study of salivary pH in swimmers from Ibarra, Ecuador, showed that exposure to alkaline pool water, with an average pH of 7.8, generates an increase in salivary pH levels after training. This phenomenon, more pronounced in men (+0.86) than in women (+0.34), suggests a physiological adaptation to the aquatic environment, supporting the hypothesis that prolonged contact with an alkaline environment directly affects salivary parameters.
