I love soda water but the last study I read suggested it was carbonation that should be avoided. I still drink it.

I remember reading something that the acidity in sodas was way worse than plain club soda. Something about the sugar reacting with the CO2 acids.

Apparently some association to low bone density in women.

Well, this one supports the phosphoric acid bad thing, but not the carbonated being bad idea.
