All living organisms need water to stay alive, and one of the main ways we get water into our bodies is by drinking it. 

Mineral water is also known as spring water because it comes from natural springs, which are places where moving underground water comes out of an opening in the land's surface. 

The nutritional content of both natural and artificial mineral water varies greatly, but it typically has a high content of minerals like:

Calcium carbonate

Magnesium sulfate

Potassium

Sodium sulfate

It may also contain gases like:

Carbon dioxide

Hydrogen sulfide 

Health Benefits

Due to its carbonation and mineral content, mineral water is known to provide multiple health benefits, including: 

Contributing to Heart Health

In one study, post-menopausal women drank 1 liter of mineral water per day for two periods of two months each. The results showed that mineral water intake lowered the levels of bad (LDL) cholesterol and raised the levels of good (HDL) cholesterol. 

Lowering Blood Pressure

In one 2004 study, researchers evaluated the effects of mineral water on subjects who all had borderline hypertension (high blood pressure) as well as low levels of calcium and magnesium. After four weeks of drinking mineral water, they noted a significant decrease in these people’s blood pressure.

Relieving Symptoms of Constipation

For people with dyspepsia (indigestion) and constipation, carbonated mineral water can decrease constipation as well as significantly improve its symptoms. As an added benefit, it can also improve gallbladder function.
