9482225168Hard Waterwater that has a high mineral (calcium and magnesium) content.0
9482225169Soft Waterwater containing a high sodium concentration and little or no calcium or magnesium.1
9482234717Artesian Water or Artesian Well Waterwater drawn from a well that taps a confined water-bearing rock or rock formation.2
9482238908Ground Waterwater that comes from an underground body of water that does not come into contact with any surface water.3
9482240604Mineral Waterwater that is drawn from an underground source and contains at least 250 parts per million of dissolved solids. if the water contains between 250 and 500 parts per million total dissolved solids, the statement "low mineral content" must appear. if it contains more than 1,500 parts per million, the statement "high mineral content" must appear. if a cup of the water contains at least 20 milligrams of calcium, 0.36 milligram of iron, or 5 milligrams of sodium, the product must carry nutrition labeling.4
9482257124Purified Water (also known as demineralized water, distilled water, deionized water, or reverse osmosis water)water from which all minerals have been removed, thereby eliminating the possibility that the minerals might corrode pipes or appliances (such as a steam iron).5
9482261453Sparkling Bottled Waterwater in which carbon dioxide (the ingredient that makes soda pop bubbly) is naturally present; that is, carbonation is not added from an outside source.6
9482263990Spring Waterwater derived from an underground formation from which water flows naturally to the surface of the earth and to which minerals have not been added or taken away. it may be collected either at the spring itself or through a hole tapping the underground formation feeding the spring.7
9482266700Well Waterground water derived from a rock formation by way of a hole bored, drilled, or otherwise constructed in the ground.8
9482270527From a community water system or from a municipal sourcestatement that must appear on bottles containing water derived from a municipal water supply. The phrase must conspicuously precede or follow the name of the brand.9
9482275216Seltzertap water injected with carbon dioxide and containing no added salts.10
9482277821Club Sodaartificially carbonated water containing added salts and minerals.11
9482281182Tonic Waterartificially carbonated water with added sugar and/or high-fructose corn syrup, sodium, and quinine.12
9482285468Caffeinea type of compound, called a methylxanthine, found in coffee beans, cola nuts, cocoa beans, and tea leaves. A central nervous system stimulant, caffeine's effects include increasing the heart rate, boosting urine production, and raising the metabolic rate.13
9482290265Caffeine Dependence Syndromedependence on caffeine characterized by at least three of the four following criteria: withdrawal symptoms such as headache and fatigue; caffeine consumption despite knowledge that it may be causing harm; repeated, unsuccessful attempts to cut back on caffeine; and tolerance to caffeine.14
9482296301Filtered Waterregular soft drinks are 90 percent water, and diet soft drinks can contain up to 95 percent water.15
9482298713Carbon Dioxideprovides a unique taste (when mixed with water) and the characteristic "pop" you hear and "fizz" you see when you open a bottle.16
9482300973Flavorsmost soft drinks contain a combination of many individual flavors (some are natural, some are fruit- flavored extracts, others are herbs, spices, or artificial flavors).17
9482303618Colorsare obtained from natural and synthetic sources.18
9482306050Acidulantsadd tartness and act as a preservative; usually in the form of phosphoric acid and citric acid, although sometimes malic acid or tartaric acid are used.19
9482308425Preservativesthe acidity and carbonation of soft drinks usually keep the drinks from spoiling, but some soft drinks contain small amounts of preservatives to improve their shelf life.20
9482310409Potassiumis found naturally in the water used to make soft drinks and in some of the flavoring agents and other ingredients used.21
9482310410Sodiumis present in small quantities.22
9482312721Regular Sweetnersmost soft drinks are sweetened with high-fructose corn syrup (hFCS).23
9482318716Low-Calorie Sweetenersaspartame, saccharin, sucralose, and acesulfame K are approved for use in soft drinks.24
9482332761Carnitinesynthesized from the amino acids lysine and methionine in sufficient quantities to meet the needs of most people; it helps the body convert fatty acids into energy.25
9482336168Creatinean amino acid synthesized in the body; used as a dietary supplement to increase lean body mass and strength; the amount added to most energy drinks is too small to be of any benefit.26
9482339424Ginkgo Bilobaan herb used to treat any number of conditions, including fatigue and failing memory.27
9482342448Ginsengan herb used to support overall health and boost the immune system; research has not been conclusive enough to prove health claims.28

9482363132Royal Jellysubstances ecreted from the saliva glands of honey bees;provides food for all young larvae and is the only food for larvae that will develop into queen bees. it has been incorrectly claimed to impart extra energy and to have restorative properties; can be potentially hazardous for individuals who may suffer allergic reactions.34
9482376631Yerba Matean herb chemically equivalent to caffeine.35
9482377923Yohimbetouted as an aphrodisiac, a cure-all for sexual dysfunction; also claimed to be able to alter body mass, muscle mass, or exercise performance when combined with resistance training. none of these claims have been proven by research.36

9483438202Tolerancedecrease in effectiveness of a drug after a period of prolonged or heavy use.40
9483441125Metabolic Toleranceincreased efficiency of removing high levels of alcohol from the blood due to long-term exposure; may lead to more drinking and possible addiction.41
