Common questions

Is Flow Alkaline Spring Water Carton healthy?

Flow Alkaline Spring Water Carton scores 81/100 on Tallow — our clean band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in Flow Alkaline Spring Water Carton?

Flow Alkaline Spring Water Carton lists 7 ingredients, starting with Bromide, Chloride, Sulfate, Calcium and Magnesium. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does Flow Alkaline Spring Water Carton contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Flow Alkaline Spring Water Carton’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".
