The reason that aquarists measure alkalinity is that in normal seawater, most alkalinity consists of bicarbonate and carbonate. Consequently, alkalinity is an indication of whether or not adequate bicarbonate is present in the water. Sodium bicarbonate is the main alkaline buffer in our blood. Alkaline buffers supplied from outside the body, like drinking bicarbonate water, results in a net gain of alkalinity in our body.
