Soda-mineral water; Research to understand its health effects will help us better understand the potential benefits and possible risks of its consumption.
Mineral water is obtained from underground sources containing natural minerals and elements. It contains minerals such as calcium, magnesium and sodium, and some studies have shown that these minerals may have positive effects on bone health, digestive system functions and electrolyte balance. However, not all mineral waters have the same content and their effects may vary.
Soda usually contains sugar, artificial sweeteners, caffeine and baking soda. Excessive consumption of sodas containing high amounts of sugar can increase health risks such as obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular problems. Artificial sweeteners can also cause negative effects on metabolism when consumed excessively. While sodas containing caffeine are known for their stimulating effects, excessive consumption can lead to nervousness, insomnia and stomach upset.
