Is soda water alkaline or acidic?
The effective component of soda water is sodium bicarbonate, or baking soda for short, which is alkaline water, that is, weakly alkaline water.

In addition, soda water is weakly alkaline, so for some digestive tract problems, especially patients with hyperacidity, taking soda water can play a role in nourishing the stomach, and soda water can enhance the immune function of the human body. Enhancing immune function may be caused by some minerals such as selenium in soda water.

Soda water is a new type of drink with fresh taste, fine foam and various fruit flavors, and it is the most popular healthy drink. Bubble water is strongly sought after by young people because it can suppress appetite, eliminate constipation and block the absorption of sugar and fat.

Soaking in soda water has the effects of regulating the acid-base balance of human body, slimming and refreshing, but it is by no means a panacea for treating various diseases, mainly focusing on health care.

Bubble water is sugar-free, cool and refreshing, with lemon, lime, raspberry and other flavors, and the price is not expensive, so it has become the new favorite of people under 40, especially young people. Bubble water contains carbonic acid, which can form carbon dioxide in the human body and emit body heat. The sense of coolness is also good for restoring fatigue.

The taste of soda and soda water is almost the same, and the carbon dioxide bubbles contained in the liquid can also be observed with the naked eye, but the production principle of the two is completely different. Soda water is made of sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3). When it is mixed with water, it will produce carbon dioxide gas and a lot of sodium. If the human body ingests a large amount of sodium, the concentration of sodium ions in the body will be too high. This is also the reason why it is not recommended for patients with low gastric acid secretion and hypertension to drink a lot of soda water. Soaking water is made by soaking machine, which just presses food-grade carbon dioxide gas into water. Compared with soda water that produces a lot of sodium, bubble water is purer.
