Water is so far above everything else that EVERY SINGLE SODA is forced to add around 80% water.

I actually think water percentage would be in the high 90s. 80% water sounds like it would be more like syrup consistency.

Drinking water gives me acid reflux, always has. Which is weird because fanta is a lot more acidic and doesn't do that.

[–] lietuva@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

There's common misconseption that higher acid in your stomach causes acid reflux, however it is actually the oposite. There's sphincter in your esophagus which contracts when there's enough acidity and opens when there's lack of. So when you are having bad reflux, try increasing your stomach acid by either chewing gum, eating sour or eating something bitter. Avoid drinking large amount of water after heavy meals, since you are diluting acid. Also less smoking and drinking helps (quitting smoking really helped for me. Those over the counter tablets containing carbonate salts actually make it even worse, since they neutralize stomach acid, when you want to increase it. Protein pump inhibitors, such as ranitidine block production of stomach acid completely, however it really messes up with your protein intake. Common pain killers, such as ibuprofen, aspirin mess with yiur stomach too

Does it burn? If I drink cold water, I tend to get esophageal spasms. My heart to my jaw gets this tension and pain, but it doesn't burn. It tends to be worse with normal sipping amounts rather than chugging like a hamster. It can happen with beer but for whatever reason, soda never causes it for me. Probably something about the drink rate or usually having soda at room temp. Not trying to tell you how your body works, just offering up info no one I know knows about.

Yes it burns at the plexus and throat. I find it less so when I filter the (bottled) water in a brita filter (cartridged filters) but then it tastes funny. So I actually never drink water.

What is even weirder if I drink those water bottle with a slight hint of flavor, no reflux. Might be a mental problem?

I don't experience what you have.

I'd fight the shit out of you but I am afraid you are just too well hydrated and I stand no chance.

apfelschorle should be at least an A-Tier as well - best drink besides water, especially when you want some variety at some point.

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 4 points 7 months ago (10 children)

Water, coffee, whiskey, wine. Drink alcohol maybe once or twice a month, coffee and water daily.

All S tier.

Alcohol free beer is wonderful!

[–] anarchy79@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

It is. Low alcoholic is 😘🤏. Or something to that effect.

I'll be fighting with you

Edit: fighting with OP, how does someone think the opposite?

[–] coffeebiscuit@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago (3 children)

I'd push water down to C or D level because I'm not sure what they put in this shit where I live, and I'd push low-alcoholic beer to S tier. It's how they did it in the old days and it carried us all into the future.

[–] go_go_gadget@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

Well someone carried us anyway. I blacked out at some point.

[–] Wilzax@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

Unsweet tea gets a tier tho

[–] affiliate@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago
