Carbonated Waters

[DrewZ]

What are your thoughts on carbonated waters?
Do they have any impact on nutrition?

Lately I can't get enough of these.
They are not sweetened and are zero cal. they have the essence of whatever is on the label.

I think there has to be some cals in there, maybe 5 from sugar alcohols or Splenda.

It's completely unsweetened, it just has the aroma of the fruit.

Only thing listed on the nutritional facts is a little sodium - 25mg

I guess my question is about the carbonation*

I wouldn't worry about. I saw there was some article on how diet drinks were just as healthy as water but I can't see how that is possible.

If you look like your avi then I def would not worry about it!!!!!

Carbonated water and bone health - Mayo Clinic

Nothing wrong with it.

[Times Roman]

I'm perfectly good with that.

........but I'm a friggin cheap bastad (news flash!)

I (surprise, surprise) make my own of sorts.

For example, in a shaker cup of ice and icewater, I'll add a drop or two of concentrated lemon juice and shake the heck out of it...

...surprisingly refreshing!

Other fruit works decent too, (strawberries, that sort of thing), but I prefer the citrus

Love doing that too! reminds me of the water at nicer hotels/resorts in the lobby.
Sometimes its nice to have something with bubbles.

Yeah, the bubbles part is pretty nice.

You know what I do sometime? diet tonic water. you can get at the store, 2 litres, for about a buck. a little lemon squeeze, and viola!

[DrewZ]

I'll have to give that a try!

These cans are about $5 for a 12 pack.

I actually get carbonated flavored water from Walmart. They have several flavors, 1lt bottles for .89 cents. There is 0 everything in them

I wonder how they get them to have the flavor of the fruit with only sodium as the ingredient on the label? Something is not adding up IMO. I would consider these the same as diet soda, which I drink daily and thoroughly enjoy.
