Best Bottled Water for Low Sodium Diets
For people managing hypertension or following a DASH-style diet, the sodium in bottled water adds up. These brands report the lowest sodium per liter.
Why sodium in water matters
While most bottled waters contribute little daily sodium, mineral and sparkling waters can carry 100–1,200 mg/L. Strict low-sodium diets should avoid these.
Featured low-sodium brands
Aquafina (<1 mg/L), Smartwater (<1 mg/L), VOSS (~6 mg/L), Evian (~6.5 mg/L), and Dasani (~7 mg/L) are all considered very low sodium.
What to watch out for
San Pellegrino (~35 mg/L), Perrier (~10 mg/L), and especially Vichy Catalan (~1,100 mg/L) deliver meaningful sodium and should be limited on restricted diets.
