Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I am a 40-year-old male. Recently, I have been exploring various options available in the market for water consumption and their potential effects on health. I have come across terms like 'drinking water,' 'enhanced water,' and 'carbonated water.' I am curious to understand the differences between them in terms of health benefits and potential harms. Given my age and health considerations, I want to make informed choices about the type of water I consume regularly. Could you please provide information on the differences between these types of water and offer any recommendations based on their impact on health?
Hi,
I appreciate that you have chosen icliniq.com for your medical needs.
I am here to give you the best care possible.
Actually, a normal human being should drink only drinking water. Drinking water refers to the regular water that we drink. Enhanced water means they add some flavors to make it tastier, and carbonated water means water with carbon dioxide, giving it a fizzy quality, like soda. Therefore, it is advisable not to consume them excessively. Both enhanced and carbonated water should not be consumed on a regular basis. So, please stick to drinking water only. Nothing else is required.
I hope you are satisfied with my answer. For further queries, you can consult me at icliniq.
Thank you.
