      Can you drink boiled mineral water?

      When drinking mineral water, it is better to drink it without heating, drink it cold or slightly warm it, and do not boil it for drinking.

      This is because mineral water generally contains more calcium and magnesium and has a certain hardness. Calcium and magnesium are in ionic state at room temperature and are easily absorbed by the human body, playing a very good role in calcium supplementation.

      For example, when boiling, calcium and magnesium are easy to form scale and precipitate with carbonate, which not only loses calcium and magnesium, but also causes sensory discomfort. Therefore, the best way to drink mineral water is to drink it at room temperature.
