Hydrating as much as regular water?
Experts claim that it is hydrating just like regular water, but others say the opposite. Bubbles make it harder to drink as much, which means that you automatically drink a smaller quantity.

The answer to if ‘Sparking water is good for your health’ remains unclear. Sparking water calms motion sickness, helps for dyspepsia, is rich in minerals and is safer than tap water. However, it can trigger diarrhea or constipation, contains unhealthy sweeteners and is bad for your teeth.
