Order Co2 gas right here?
A CO2 cylinder is what you need when you want to turn your tap water into a delicious and bubbly drink. Our cylinders contain carbon dioxide, which is necessary to form carbonation – this happens when carbon dioxide reacts with water. The result is a tasty sparkling water that you can dispense straight from the tap.
Although carbonated water has existed for decades, it has become more popular over the past few years. Statistics show that sales of carbonated water exceeded 6 billion USD in 2016, a sharp increase from the 2.6 billion USD sold in 2011.
Carbonated water is water that manufacturers have infused with carbon dioxide gas. Drinking sparkling water gives the same sensation as drinking a soda without the added calories and sugar. Most producers flavor carbonated water using natural flavorings. You commonly see carbonated water sold under names like: Sparkling water, Soda, Club soda, Fizzy water, Mineral water, Lightly sparkling and Carbonated water.
Although sparkling water has grown in popularity, many people wonder whether there are health benefits to drinking it. Luckily, we're here to give you a complete overview of the benefits of drinking carbonated water.
See more below:
Sparkling Water Is Better For You Than Soda
Carbonated water can be better for you than drinking soda for a few reasons. First and foremost, sparkling water contains neither calories nor sugar. If you enjoy a bit of "fizz" in your drink, carbonated water lets you have that without the extra calories.
Additionally, carbonated water is better than sugar in terms of how it affects your tooth enamel. A common misconception is that carbonation breaks down tooth enamel, but that's not the case. It's the sugar in beverages that causes enamel to break down. Studies have shown that soft drinks are 100 times more damaging to your tooth enamel than carbonated water.
Improves Digestion
Sparkling water is also beneficial because it can improve digestion. It does so by enhancing your ability to swallow. For example, one study found that carbonated water stimulated the nerves required for swallowing more than any other drink.
Moreover, carbonated water can have a positive effect on bowel movements, especially for those who are constipated. Researchers also believe that carbonated water may reduce the severity of other indigestion symptoms, such as stomach pain.
Weight Loss
Perhaps the most important health benefit of drinking carbonated water is that it can help you lose weight. That's because the beverage can make you feel more full than you would when drinking plain water. Additionally, research shows that carbonated water forces food to remain in your stomach longer, helping you feel satiated.
The more full you feel, the less inclined you'll be to eat. Thus, carbonated water can serve as "empty calories" that reduce your desire to snack. By eating less, you'll lose weight faster.
No Phosphorus
One of the primary ingredients in soda is phosphorus. Unfortunately, researchers believe that phosphorus is one of the components directly responsible for reduced bone health. For a while, scientists speculated whether it was the carbonation in drinks that led to decreased bone density. This has now been proven false. Carbonated water has no effect on bone health.
In fact, there is some reason to believe that carbonated water may improve bone health. One study showed that carbonated drinking water led to better water retention than mineral water. Another animal study concluded that carbonated water increased bone strength more than tap water.
Potentially Improves Heart Health
Another potential benefit of drinking carbonated water is that it may improve heart health. Early research looks promising, and one study measured the effect carbonated water had on cholesterol levels. For example, a study measured the impact that carbonated water had on cholesterol. The research concluded that carbonated drinking water led to an increase in the "good" HDL cholesterol. It also found that the water decreased:
"bad" LDL cholesterol
Blood sugar levels
Inflammatory markers
Stay more hydrated throughout the day
This may seem obvious, but it’s worth mentioning. Drinking carbonated water can help you stay better hydrated throughout the day. Many people find that carbonated water tastes better and is easier to drink than plain tap or spring water. Carbonation, however, has the same health benefits as spring water, in that it will keep your body hydrated. So by drinking carbonated water there’s a greater chance you’ll remain hydrated all day.
Considering the human body is about 60 percent water, it’s crucial that you stay hydrated throughout the day. Most experts recommend drinking at least 64 ounces of water a day, although it’s also fine to drink a bit more.
Hydration enables you to perform at your best both physically and mentally. Being well hydrated can reduce oxidative stress that occurs during exercise. Even a small amount of dehydration can affect your concentration and mood. Dehydration can also make you more prone to headaches. Drinking carbonated water can help prevent these from occurring.
