Whether expensive high-end water is an IQ tax

As the saying goes, water is the source

So, are these "high-end water" really "high-end" compared to the average water? In response to this problem, the reporter interviewed relevant experts

It is packaged with various "magical" effects

Some time ago, the media exposed

Let's first take a look at the "magical" effects of these "high-end waters" in the mouths of merchants

In view of the immature immune system and metabolic system of infants and young children, the merchant launched the main concept of "sterility, low sodium, light mineralization" baby water, saying that it is produced by high temperature sterilization and sterile production line, so it can ensure the safety

The effect of oxygen-enriched water is more "magical", some merchants said when promoting oxygen-enriched water, when the human body is hypoxic, there will be many adverse consequences, and drinking oxygen-rich water can increase the oxygen content in the human body, and then play a certain health care role, such as anti-fatigue, anti-aging and so on

As enzymes are accepted by more and more people, some merchants have launched enzyme sparkling water

There is a suspicion of collecting an "IQ tax"

So, are these "high-end waters" worth the money or the "IQ tax"?

Tianjin U.

"However, drinking water is not the main way for infants and young children to obtain trace elements, mainly relying on diet, so even if the water contains certain trace elements, the impact on its health is not large

"Baby water is not much higher than tap water, and mothers don't have to pay

For oxygen-rich water, Mei Zhen, a lecturer in the Department of Chemistry of the School of Science of Tianjin University of Science and Technology, said that it is impossible to supplement oxygen

"Even if oxygen is dissolved into water and encapsulated by pressurization, after the water bottle is opened, under the action of pressure, oxygen may 'run' away

"In addition, people in an oxygenated environment will produce free radicals, which is also one

Enzyme is the Japanese name for enzymes, China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued the light industry standard "Enzyme Product Classification Guidelines" will be defined as: animals, plants, fungi, etc.

"Its bioactive ingredients include various nutrients provided by plant raw materials and microorganisms, plant functional chemical components in natural plants, as well as some active substances generated by fermentation, including amino acids, peptides, vitamins, etc

The reporter saw an enzyme sparkling water on an e-commerce platform, whose enzyme content is not much, and the product standard implemented is GB/T 10792, which is the same as
the implementation standard of most carbonated beverages.
"Enzymes are just a selling point of this water, and enzyme sparkling water is not much different from
ordinary water.
