Any recommendations on a salt with less alk?

Seachem ReefSalt mixes to 8.8 -> 9.0 (from my tests from the last 2 batches I've gotten)... My system is running at 7.2 currently, and a 10% water change (35 gallon change) bumps me up to about 7.4, which only lasts about 2 days till it settles back again at 7.2. (I've been testing Alk daily for the last 4 weeks, so this is my current experience).

(I care so much since I'm running ZEOvit, and don't want the alk fluctuation with changes!)
