Carbonated water

 

Carbonated water, also known as soda water, sparkling water, seltzer, and fizzy water, is a type of beverage that has been artificially infused with carbon dioxide gas. It is typically sold in bottles, cans, or in the form of a powder that is dissolved in water.

The carbon dioxide gas gives carbonated water its distinctive bubbly and acidic taste, which makes it a popular beverage choice for many. It is also a popular mixer for cocktails, as the carbon dioxide helps to bring out the flavors of the other ingredients.

Carbonated water is considered to be a healthier alternative to traditional sugary sodas and juices, as it contains no added sugars or artificial sweeteners. It is also calorie-free and contains no fat or cholesterol. The carbon dioxide gas in carbonated water can also provide a variety of health benefits.

Research has shown that it can help aid digestion, reduce bloating, and even reduce the risk of certain types of cancer. Although carbonated water is generally considered to be a healthy beverage, it is important to note that it can be harsh on the digestive system if consumed in large quantities.
