A sip of well-being


Tesorino Sorgente water has the particularity of having high concentrations of very important macroelements such as calcium and magnesium, which give it a high solid residue value (indicating the water's richness in mineral salts) but at the same time have a lightness comparable to that of a trace element .

Based on the chemical-physical analysis of the chemistry department of University of La Sapienza in Rome the water of Sorgente Tesorino is classified as medium mineral water with a solid residue of 645 mg/l. However, unlike the usual medium mineral waters, Tesorino is comparable to an oligomineral water, a type of water that is characterized by its lower content of macro and micro elements very easy and is digestible . In fact, its degree of mineralization is low and the high fixed residue value is mainly achieved by the calcium and magnesium ions alone.

In particular, Tesorino is classified as a bicarbonate-sulfate-alkaline earth water, characterized by elevated concentrations of calcium (170 mg/l) and magnesium (25 mg/l), as well as bicarbonate (450 mg/l) and sulfate (96.7 mg). is /l).

Mineral waters differ in many chemical-physical properties that give them specific properties. These properties are mainly represented by the content of minerals, that is, macro and micro elements, as well as by some parameters such as the temperature at the source, the fixed residue, conductivity and the absence of undesirable substances.

In this sense, each body of water is characterized based on the geological and ecological characteristics of its path from source to mouth.

For this reason, not all waters are the same and there is a classification of mineral waters that distinguishes them based on their content of macro- and microelements and other related chemical-physical properties.

The main distinction between minerals is based on the fixed residue at 180 °C (amount of mineral salts in mg/l separated from 1 liter of water after complete evaporation at 180 °C); Based on this value, the waters are classified into minimally mineralized (solid residue < 50 mg/l), weakly mineralized (50 mg/l < solid residue < 550 mg/l) and medium mineralized (500 mg/l < solid residue) water content < 1,500 mg/l), rich (solid residue < 1,500 mg/l).


The established residue value is not an indicator of the better or worse quality of the water in question, as is often assumed, but only of the amount of mineral salts it contains. Water with a high solid residue is richer in mineral salts, substances that are important for our health and not harmful, compared to water with a lower solid residue. Reading the solid residue only tells us whether the water is more or less rich in mineral salts. However, in order to understand the specific type of water, it is necessary to check what salts are involved

available in larger quantities.



Therefore, one water is more suitable than another for each person depending on their age, lifestyle and health status. In addition, waters are differentiated based on the abundance of certain elements in sauces (predominance of chloride and sodium), sulfates (predominance of sulfates), ferruginous (predominance of iron), bicarbonates (predominance of bicarbonate) and alkaline-earthy (predominance of calcium) and Magnesium). Due to their composition, mineral waters are more suitable for fulfilling certain functions than others, e.g. B. stimulating digestive functions, promoting diuresis, exerting eupeptic effects instead of allowing adequate supplementation of mineral salts.Water fulfills essential functions in our organism, starting with the constitutive one: around 60-70% of an adult's weight consists of water. In almost all of our tissues there is a more or less high percentage of water, which allows the cell volume to be maintained, which is the solvent for a variety of metabolic reactions, which dilutes the ingested and organic substances ingested in the diet, thus allowing the influx of cells and maintains moisture of the tissue, allows the elimination of waste substances, contributes to thermoregulation and the maintenance of correct blood pressure values and is a source of mineral salts.

Among the mineral salts, calcium and magnesium play an extremely important role.


Calcium is the main component of bones and teeth and is involved in muscle contraction, nerve conduction, blood clotting and the development of the skeletal system.

In addition to being an important component of bone tissue, magnesium plays a key role in the various processes that allow our cells to produce energy and is essential for maintaining nerve and muscle functions.

We need about 1.5 mg/day of calcium and about 150-500 mg/day of magnesium, but food only provides us with the necessary amount, since these elements are found in food in a poorly assimilable form or in small quantities.

Water, on the other hand, is a main source of calcium and magnesium, which are found in the most easily assimilable form.

Water is therefore a real food that must be an integral part of the diet.

In particular, Tesorino Sorgente water, thanks to its composition and richness in calcium and magnesium, combined with a varied diet and a correct lifestyle, helps to achieve the correct balance of the body's needs.

It is suitable for integrated nutrition from pediatric ages to seniors and is particularly suitable for physical activity.

It has also been shown to be beneficial to health, helping to prevent and resolve stones and various problems in the digestive, urinary and vascular systems.
