In fact, there is no ideal water, but it is good to buy moderately mineralized waters, and calcium bicarbonates whose calcium content must be 200-300 mg for each liter of water.
According to some indications it is not recommended to buy low mineralized or low mineralized waters with few minerals. The same goes for those rich in minerals such as sodium and sulphates, because they favor large losses of calcium in the urine.
What to do?
Check the water label before buying it. Then, check that inside it:
– the sodium concentration does not exceed 50 mg per liter;
– the concentration of sulphates does not exceed 250 mg per liter.
