I like to put lemon or vitamins (those tablets that also create fizzyness) in my water and have been wondering if it is problematic to do so in my aluminium drinking bottle. I wouldn’t normally think so, since soft drinks also often come in aluminium cans, but I’m not sure. Are aluminium salts even unhealthy?

    there’s a reason beer was the first canned beverage. more acidic things like some sodas corroded aluminum too much until plastic liners were introduced

    these fizzy tablets should be ok, but lemon is probably a nope

      that said, i wouldn’t care either way too much. if you drink black tea you probably ingest more aluminum this way
