    I like it. I don't have it a lot tho. I suppose it helps by making you feel full due to it being carbonated.

    I have one of those soda stream machines and I just use my RO water and put a splash of lemon in it for a tasty treat (or a bit of mint is really nice too). I'd love to hear if this is harmless or has something nefarious in it...

    Well, it has CO2 in it, so it does bloat some people. Hydrates you though, just like normal water.
  • I like sparkling water, I tend to drink more because it feels like you're drinking something more interesting.. Annoying having to go to the toilet more often though! I don't see what the problem with it is..
