Sparkling Water?

Question

Okay, so I've heard that sparkling water is good for you and was thinking about trying it. However, I have some questions about it.

1.) What does it taste like?

2.)Where can I get it?

3.)What brand is the best?

Also, I heard that it, um, "cleans you out." Is this true? Because I don't want to drink it and then a few minutes later be talking to someone and then suddenly have to run to the bathroom.

Thanks!!

Answer 1

Yeah sparkling water is basically a water with carbohydrates.

Well i know you can buy sparkling water overseas ITS EVERYWHERE!!!!

But im sure you can buy some at you local supermarket.

Also its good for you, and it goes through you just as fast as water.

Answer 2

1) Like a water with gas

2) grocery store - cold drinks section (with the beer/wine area)

3)The one with the NO added flavors and the ones with less sodium

No it doesn't clean you out (in my opinion).  However, if you have a sore tummy, this can help you release 'gas'.  

I would recommend that a cheaper version is club soda which you can get in the grocery stores.   It doesn't have salt and tastes just like mineral water.

Answer 3

1)  Funny enough, it does have a distinct taste and I can't describe it really well.  The CO2 does seem to give it a bitter taste while it's bubbling.  It tastes like water when you keep in your mouth.  It actually seems to change.

2)  Any supermarket.  

3)  They are all pretty much the same.  

It should have no different effect on your digestion.  It's just carbonated water.   It's like soda without the sugar or flavors.  

Have a great day!

Answer 4

It tastes like "dry" water in your mouth. It fizzes a bit.

You can get it at any grocery store.  My personal favorite is H2Oh! brand, the lemon-lime. It can get costly, about $1.80/6 bottles.  

I have not had the experience of "cleaning you out", but it acts for your body like regular water.  You might burp, depending on how much you drink.  Enjoy!  It's a nice difference from regular purified water.

Answer 5

It tastes like fizzy water. I think the best brand is Perrier, which you can get everywhere, even many restaurants. Concentrated mineral water can have a laxative effect, but you have to drink a whole lot of it. Several bottles of Perrier will leave you hydrated and help you digest your food well.

Answer 6

1. I personally hate the taste of spakling water. It is carbonated water, which is basically like soda water. It hurts your throat to swallow it.

2. You can get it probably anywhere, even Target.

3. If I had to chose a brand, i'd chose Voss.

I'm not sure if it really "cleans you out" but normally it takes a while to digest anything.

Answer 7

It is carbonated (it has bubbles) and it can be naturally or artificially carbonated. It does NOT contain carbohydrates (sugars). "Best" is a matter of personal preference. Most grocery stores carry it in the aisle where they have other sodas.

Answer 8

You can get it at any store that has drinks or soda probably. any brand they are all the same. It is soda without flavor so it doesnt taste like anything so it just blah. I ahve never heard of it cleaning you out it probably isnt true.
