Man needs minerals. However, the common misconception is that these minerals are supplied to the body through the water or drinking water. The opposite is the case - the minerals in the mineral water are either inorganic or artificial - but in both cases are not bio-available, which means that these minerals can NOT be absorbed by the body. The mineralized water thus loses even its most important property as a means of transport, since it is then in a saturated form. Even worse is mineral water that is carbonated. This is then even oversaturated and even harms the body.
