What Is Mineral Water?

Mining water is a special beverage that emerges from deep within the earth and contains natural minerals. As this water passes through underground rocks, it absorbs minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and bicarbonate. For this reason, it can be both refreshing and beneficial to health.

Rainwater seeps beneath the soil and undergoes a long journey. During this journey, it absorbs minerals from underground rock formations. It then rises to the surface through natural pressure. Some mining waters also contain natural gas (carbon dioxide), which is why some are effervescent.

Due to its mineral content, mining water can assist in bone development, digestion, and maintaining the body’s water balance. It is especially preferred as a refreshing drink after physical activity or during hot weather. However, excessive consumption may cause discomfort in some individuals. Therefore, it should be consumed in moderation.

No! Carbonated waters are beverages to which carbon dioxide has been added artificially. Mining water, by contrast, is naturally mineralized and sometimes naturally effervescent. Therefore, the term “natural mineral water” applies only to genuine mining waters.

Türkiye is one of the countries in the world with rich sources of mining water. Mining waters from different cities have distinct tastes and mineral compositions. In Türkiye, mining waters are regulated by the Ministry of Health.
