pH
pH (Power of hydrogen) is the number that represents the ratio of H+ (hydrogen) - ions to OH- (oxygen and hydrogen) - ions.
pH stands for numbers 1 to 14. pH below 7 means that the environment is acidic, and above 7 - is alkaline. 7 means that the environment is neutral and the ratio between H + and OH- is equal.
What is the difference between water pH 7, pH 8, and pH 9?
Each subsequent pH-number means that the environment is 10 times more alkaline (more oxygen and hydrogen OH-). If the pH value is greater than 7, then the environment is alkaline (more secured with OH-).
For example pH 8 = 10-times more alkaline than pH 7 and pH 9 = 10-times more alkaline than pH 8.
Conclusion: water with pH 9 is exactly 100-times more alkaline than water with pH 7, and pH 10 is 1000-times more alkaline than pH 7.
The same scheme also applies to the acid environment: pH 4 (more H+ ions) indicates 1000-times more acidic than pH 7, and the environment with pH 3 is 10.000-times more acidic than pH 7.
Carbonation
Carbonated water is also known as sparkling water. The origin of carbon dioxide may be different.
1)Natural- Already from the very birth, the water contains natural carbon dioxide CO2.
2)Natural CO2 is collected from the water birthplace and later added to the bottled water.
3)Artificial carbonation. (in 98% cases)
The Carbonation amount in the water- can be very lightly carbonated, medium, or very tangy.

632 mg/lCalcium
Calcium (Ca) can leave a dry aftertaste.
Calcium strengthens bones, teeth and is responsible for nerve impulse action.
If you eat dairy products on a daily basis, that's enough. The other good alternative may be calcium-containing water.
Calcium plays an important role in the formation and maintenance of bones and teeth.
Calcium in the nerves and muscle cells is responsible for impulse and hormonal signal transmission. It also regulates the activity of different enzymes, it has anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic properties.
Every day you need about 1000 mg.
Young people and seniors should receive more calcium. Especially a lot of calcium is in milk and cheese. If you do not eat dairy products every day, calcium-containing mineral water is a great alternative.
If calcium is lacking, the body is taking it from the skeletal bone, which can cause osteoporosis or "bone loss" in the long run. Especially it may affect older people, mainly women. Calcium deficiency can also cause headaches, muscle spasms, and irritability.

Chloride
Chloride (Cl) tastes salty and a bit bitter.
Chloride, along with other minerals, affects the osmotic pressure in the cells and the balance of the body's acid-alkaline balance.
Combined with hydrogen, it forms the hydrochloric acid in the stomach and thus promotes digestion.
If the body lacks chloride, symptoms include stomach acid disorder, diarrhea. Chloride as an ingredient in gastric juice ensures the balance of acids and alkalis.
Chloride deficiency can be manifested in muscle spasms or heart dysfunction.

Fluoride
Fluoride (F) has a sweet and soapy taste and it plays a very important role in bone and tooth structure.
Fluoride naturally occurring in water can be above, at, or below recommended levels.
Fluoride remains in the teeth and can inhibit dental caries. It also increases bone density.
The result of fluoride deficiency may be brittle bones and bad teeth.
Caution: too much unhealthy. Children and adolescents need fluoride for growing teeth, but they should not be consumed too much. Therefore, the legislator has laid down an appropriate reference to the labeling of mineral waters with a fluoride content of more than 1.5 mg/l. For children under 7 years of age, it is not recommended to drink such water every day for prolonged periods.
Fluoride tends to be concentrated also in tea, coffee, shellfish, spinach, grapes, raisins, carrots, wine, cucumber, dill herb, tomatoes, asparagus, beans, peas, white rice, and potatoes.
It is important to understand that natural fluoride and synthetic industrial fluoride is quite a different substance.

Hydrogen Carbonate
Hydrogen carbonate (HCO3), also called bicarbonate, tastes light, soap-like.
It has an alkaline effect, and it can improve the body's acid-alkaline balance, i.e., bicarbonate is able to bond the stomach acid.
Hydrogen carbonate can help with various digestive problems. Water with high bicarbonate content gently relieves heartburn and may reduce inflammation of the gastric mucosa.
Hydrogen carbonate is not a mineral, but is the salt of carbonic acid, and is present in each mineral water.
Thanks to the acid-neutralizing effect, it not only delivers a pleasantly neutral and natural flavor to mineral water but also improves the body's acid-alkali balance.
Magnesium
Magnesium has a bitter taste, sometimes it can give a sweet aftertaste.
Magnesium is a very important element for the heart.
It is considered to be an antistress mineral and is also vital for the skin.
Magnesium is important for the transport of nerve impulses, which helps the muscles to relax.
Magnesium activates more than 300 enzymes in the body and regulates electrochemical impulses.
Every day you need 350 mg for men, 300 mg for women, 400 mg for young people.
More magnesium is needed for pregnant women, athletes, and people in stressful situations.
Manifestations of magnesium deficiency: leg cramps, migraine, headache, cardiac and circulatory organ failure, may be at increased risk of thrombosis.
