Just drink normal filtered tap water or bottled mineral water.
I wonder if coke are aware of the smartwater security product?
SmartWater is a traceable liquid and forensic asset marking system (taggant) that is applied to items of value to identify thieves and deter theft. The liquid leaves a long-lasting and unique identifier, whose presence is invisible except under an ultraviolet black light.
The distillation process removes more electrolytes than they add back, this has less than tap water, so it’s even worse for athletes.
You are correct about electrolytes however, Lucozade actually do a water for this purpose called fitwater. Any water with added electrolytes of any useful quantity is going to taste salty, this tastes more pure, even than tap water, since the minerals have been distilled. (edited)
This complete obsession with living in a sterile world, anti-bacterial everything, soap, toothpaste, bum wipes, etc... It's not good.
Now, there's harmful bacteria in tap water, omg.
It's time to stop obsessing about such things. Get your hands dirty, let kids play in the garden. Drink tap water. It won't do you any harm. Your immune system can cope, beneficial bacteria on your skin and in your gut will defend you, and your body will be more resilient.
Otherwise, we'll all end up living in a sterile bubble pod scared to have any contact with the outside world.
World's gone mad.
This product is just well water from Abbey Well (also sometimes branded as Schweppes Abbey Well, as coke also own the Schweppes brand) New minster abbey, near Morpeth in Northumberland (owned by coke since 2008) that has been vapour filtered and then had salts and minerals added back in. It is not 100% sterile as far as im aware. Even if it was after filtering, the added minerals and salts could reintroduce contaminants. (edited)
Never done me any harm.
Also, it's bad for the environment to distil water then bottle it. Pointlessly boiling water. Selling this for drinking ought to be made illegal.
I drink filtered tap water.
When I go out, if I remember, I refill a bottle with my filtered tap water.
If I forget and have to buy a bottle of water in a convenience store, I note further rip off pricing, where a 500ml bottle often costs twice the price of a 1 litre bottle.
I've attached a bottle to my rucksack to try and avoid the mistake of not taking any water with me.
My tap water smells like a swimming pool with added dog...
So no thanks.
