Carbonated water may also extend feelings of fullness after meals to a greater extent than plain water.
May help relieve constipation
People who experience constipation may find that drinking sparkling water helps relieve their symptoms.
Does it affect heart health?
Carbonated water may have beneficial effects on your cholesterol, inflammation, and blood sugar levels, potentially reducing your risk of heart disease. However, more studies are necessary.
