Side effects of carbonated water or fizzy drinks and use of co2 in water that you may not have known.
Do you like to drink mineral water? Do you prepare your own water and add carbonic acid to it? The tingling effect of carbonated water is extremely refreshing. But, you also know the side effect of kicking off when you have consumed a large amount of bubbly water. What do you think the carbonic acid harms your digestive tract or is it degraded directly by the stomach acid so that your organism does not notice it?
You can probably add a certain amount of carbonic acid to your self-made soda water. Producers of mineral water - or even soft drinks - use the bubbling effect to taste the taste. You have already experienced it yourself: Drink fresh, still tingling sweet drinks like cola, the taste comes much more to the advantage than with the stale drink. This effect is not so pronounced with mineral water, since the mineral water already comes from the volcanic sources of Germany, but you can feel a stronger refreshment by the effervescent effect.
What is the effect of carbonic acid on the organism?
The carbonic acid from German mineral waters is often of natural origin. Since the water flows from the deep volcanic sources and the springs consist of carbon dioxide-containing rock, the spring water mixes directly with carbon dioxide and is bottled by the manufacturer. The carbonic acid which is available for self-production of sparkling water also contains carbon dioxide.
If you drink the water, the following happens:
The taste intensity is caused indirectly by tingling. The fine oxygen bubbles irritate your taste buds on the tongue, so you can perceive the taste of the water much more strongly. With cold drinks the cold increases the effect again. The blood circulation is also stimulated directly by the effervescent. If the carbonic acid vesicles touch the oral mucosa and the tongue, they burst, creating a massaging effect, just as if you tap your fingertip lightly on your arm. The site is reddening, indicating increased blood flow. How much blood flow increases depends on the carbonic acid content of the water. At the same time, their taste buds are cleaned by the excitation of the salivary flow.
But, to what extent does the carbonic acid now support your digestion? If you already have one or the other diet, you are sure to know how to drink plenty of water. If the water also contains carbonic acid, which is characterized in the stomach as air, the feeling of hunger decreases. So you're fooling with carbonated mineral water.
But be careful: drink too much of the bubbling water, overstretch the effect and suffer from bloating and bloating. Therefore always choose the middle path, and you should also drink still water or drinks without carbon dioxide - just if you want to balance the loss of liquid after the sport.

- Higher taste development,
- Increased blood circulation of the oral mucosa,
- Excitation of the salivary flow,
- Support digestion.
