People have been drinking carbonated water for over a hundred years now (maybe even two hundred years actually). If there was a strong link between carbonation and damage to your body we would have seen it by now.

"People have been drinking carbonated water for over a hundred years now (maybe even two hundred years actually)."

There are naturally carbonated springs all over the world. I used to drink from one in Guffey, Colorado when I was a kid - it tasted like a glass of water with two alka-seltzer tablets in it. I think Soda Springs, Colorado is named for one.

Perrier comes from one[1].

People have been drinking carbonated water for more than 100-200 years.
