Sparkling mineral water, unique taste

For enthusiasts, drinking Sparkling mineral water is an irresistible pleasure. Besides the pleasant sensation they give to the tasting, the bubbles are appreciated because they are considered very refreshing, and especially in summer they have an extra gear in counteracting the effects of heat. Some claim it is unhealthy, but the thesis is unfounded.

According to researchers at Inran, the Italian National Institute for Food and Nutrition Research, sparkling waters pose no health risk. The only exception is people with gastric and intestinal disorders, who should moderate their consumption, under penalty of mild temporary disturbances.

Compared to a mineral water natural effervescent, in which the gas is naturally present on average at concentrations around 1,300 mg/l, the sparkling type is obtained by adding a variable amount of carbon dioxide  to the liquid that springs from the source. Gourmets should know that at the table a sparkling water pairs better with substantial and heavily seasoned dishes typical of some Italian regions.
