No Phosphoric Acid in Syfo Beverages
You can be assured that there is absolutely no phosphorus or phosphoric acid, citric acid, tartaric, acid or malic acid in any Syfo Carbonated Beverage.

Phosphoric acid is deliberately added in some carbonated soft drinks to give them a sharper flavor and keep the bubbles from going flat. It also slows the growth of molds and bacteria, which would otherwise multiply rapidly in the sugary solution.

Many studies have been done linking the phosphoric acid in sodas to osteoporosis.  The phosphorus in the acid upsets the body’s calcium-phosphorus ratio and dissolves calcium out of the bones.  Eventually the phosphoric acid is secreted taking with it the released calcium. This can eventually result in the weakening of the skeletal structure, which can make one susceptible to broken bones.  Phosphoric acid is also known to neutralize the hydrochloric acid in our stomachs. Hydrochloric acid is essential in the digestion of our food and the utilization of nutrients.

In some recent newscasts, healthy carbonated beverages including seltzers and flavored sparkling waters such as SYFO, which contain absolutely no harmful additives, have been lumped into the same category as soft drinks.

To make our beverages the most effervescent and bubbly on the market today, we inject our highly purified water with naturally occurring carbon dioxide gas which creates the carbonation.

In order to make our products, the purest and most refreshing seltzer and sparkling waters, we forgo the use of any additives including sugars, artificial sweeteners, flavors and colors and chemical ingredients or preservatives. Our flavorings are derived from the oil selectively extracted from the peel of fruits and are PG (propylene glycol) free.

Fluoridation and Water
Our customers have from time-to-time been asking us if there is fluoride in our bottled water. Our water purification process removes all traces of fluoride.  It’s a complicated subject and a bit controversial, but there is a good two-part article in Water Conditioning & Purification Magazine titled:  “Fluoridation:  The Good, The Bad, The Ugly”    written by C.F. Michael that answers many of the questions relating to fluoridation. Here are links to part 1and part 2 of this informative article.
Stay Hydrated, Stay Safe
This from: Industrial Safety & Hygiene News, July 2009:

Water is the single largest component of the human body, accounting for about 50 to 60 percent of body mass. Water replenishment is important to everyone and is an underestimated performance enhancer. This article makes it readily apparent that any level of dehydration is not conducive to optimal physical or mental functioning.
