I wanted to drink mineral water on my tours but when ever I used that I found lot of acidity in me and indigestion. Hence am afraid to use that.Stopped completely. Did you face any such problem using mineral water. Is this good for health or not....????

Hi busybee, mineral water is filtered water, they will use chemicals to make that water to stay good for few days. This chemicals will not be good for health, to some people will effect fast and for some people it will effect slow, it depends on the individual.

yeah during traveling time we have to take mineral water. There are many brands of mineral water, try one of it and which one suits you can use it.

I didn't have your problem in drinking mineral water. maybe because I didn't drink too much.I only drink one bottle when I'm really thirsty outside. Theoretically, mineral water is good for health, but I think most of mineral water doesn't have good quality. Medical scientists proved the best water for drink should be little alkaline, so if you got an acidity, the water must be unqualified product.

Yes, you may be right it may have been of the inferior quality. Any how I stopped drinking because I always doubt weather the manufacturers maintain the quality.

I have never had any problems with drinking mineral water opposed to tap water etc though I rarely buy bottled water as I dont feel that mineral water is any better for you than tap water only with mineral you have to pay.

Ive never really had a problem with drinking mineral water, the only thing I found was when I was on holiday that I think one type of mineral water made me feel ill, it was a foreign brand and when I switched to another brand out there I felt fine, of course this may have been for any reason as when you are on holiday it can be any number of things that make you feel ill, too much sunshine, not enough water ect. But I always felt fine with any other type out there.
