Carbonated water (also known as club soda, soda water, sparkling water, seltzer water, or fizzy water) is water into which carbon dioxide gas under pressure has been dissolved. This process, known as carbonation. This process creates carbonic acid.
It is suspected (not proven conclusively) that carbolic acid helps dissolve calcium from the bones, causes kidney stones, and strips the enamel from our teeth. Drinking a ton of sparkling water could cause some unpleasant stomach symptoms for some people. Not all, but, some soda water contain added sodium and sugar. And if it has any additives (like flavors) they may contain unsavory chemicals and added sugar.
On a positive note however, while artificially carbonated water is slightly more acidic than still water, it’s not as acidic as sugary sodas.
