Use La Croix/sparking water towards water tracking?

Is there anything against using how much La Croix/sparking water you drink towards the water tracking? Does the natural flavoring automatically negate the purpose?
I get why things like coffee and caffeinated tea might be less ideal to use because caffeine is dehydrating, but I don't see why La Croix or sparking water would not be.

What do you think?

    Coffee and teas are fine also. They are not dehydrating. That's a myth.

    Well then I guess I will count my coffee towards it! Thanks!

    Some sparkling waters have a lot of sodium in them so just check the content. But really water is water

    Do they really?

    That seems strange to me.

    are you sure it isnt like that diet soda contains so much sodium myth?

    Nope it's true. It's naturally occuring. My brother was a waters bartender at a spa where we grew up. He knew the mineral content of lots of waters

    sorry I dont understand - what is naturally occuring? aren't these flavoured waters just carbonated flavoured water?

    maybe someone can look at the info on their bottle and let us know for comparison purposes - I dont buy any myself so cant do this here.
