Common questions

Is Gerolsteiner Sparkling Mineral Water Glass Bottle healthy?

Gerolsteiner Sparkling Mineral Water Glass Bottle scores 94/100 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.

Does Gerolsteiner Sparkling Mineral Water Glass Bottle contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Gerolsteiner Sparkling Mineral Water Glass Bottle’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".

How processed is Gerolsteiner Sparkling Mineral Water Glass Bottle?

Gerolsteiner Sparkling Mineral Water Glass Bottle has no NOVA group.
