| Author | Topic: Low-mineral water |
| wr_uae 01-10-2003 03:34 AM | I have found a few different types of mineral water...the thing is I'm not sure what it is I'm looking for in the water itself and what the term 'low mineral Water' actually means! The following waters I found are:- Cool Blue Pure & Natural New Zealand Mineral Water No Additives . No Preservatives mg/l Fluoride 0.2 Calcium 8.7 Magnesium 3.6 Potassium 2.5 Nitrate 0.1 Evian Natural Mineral Water mg/l Bicarbonates 357 Sulphates 10 Nitrates 3.8 Calcium 78 Magnesium 24 Sodium 5 Potassium 1 Chlorides 4.5 & Volvic Would I be correct in saying that Cool Blue Pure & Natural New Zealand Mineral Water would be the best?? |
| Scott 01-10-2003 11:19 AM | Hey Wayne... Have you read this thread and this one? You should get a pretty good idea of what to look for. Keep in mind that you can always use distilled water. It's free of minerals, inexpensive, and readily available. I buy it for $0.69/gal at the local grocery store. |
| Wai 01-10-2003 12:52 PM | Thank you, Scottquote:ehrrr, no ... the contents of Montcalm: Cl: 0.6 mg / L K: 0.4 mg / L Na: 1.5 mg / L the contents of cool blue: Cl: ??? K: 2.5 Na: ??? VERY importantly: what are its chloride and sodium contents??? |
| wr_uae 01-10-2003 08:16 PM | there was no readings for Chlorides or Sodium this is whats confusing...does this mean it contains none? |
| wr_uae 01-10-2003 08:43 PM | I'm in the middle east things are not advanced as the US..I can not find distilled water anywhere! non of the large super markets stock it. there are very few health stores so if they did sell it, i think it would be expensive for a small amount |
