Mineral water, I love it but is it a good idea to drink it?

I  mineral water and I think that it's a good substitute for sodas but is this a healthy choice? I usually drink 1 small bottle of Pellegrino mineral water and I really enjoy it, it is very refreshing. 

What do you guys think?

why wouldn't it be?  aside from the minerals (which seem totally fine), there's really nothing else in it.  is there something in particular that you're concerned about that makes you ask this question?

I did a quick Google search on the product, as i am not familiar with it, and from what i can see, the befits from it are good!

The only bad I could see would be if you have gastric problems with any carbonation.

Other than that, I personally hate the ones that come in a can because they tend to taste like aluminum, which is pretty gross and a little disturbing.  Glass bottle is best.

St Pellegrino is the bomb!

I'm also a fan of Perrier with some berries, it's a carbonated, slightly sweet yummy combo.

Yes, mineral water is a very healthy choice!  It not only helps replace sodas by fulfilling a nice carbonation kick, but because it is an alkaline substance, it helps to balance out too much acidity in your body.  I drink some every day!

I dont drink this but I drink a lot of Tonic Water. I just try to make sure it does not have a lot of sodium.

Mine has very little. some will contain a lot so its just something to watch for

Thank you everybody for your replies. I believe that my concern was with the carbonation as @Raviv mentioned. I love drinking it so I appreciate your comments very much!
