- Ashbeck is a regulated bottled water and safe to drink. The published analysis shows a lightly mineral water at 85 mg/L dissolved solids. Sodium sits at 10 mg/L, under the 20 mg/L line, so it suits a low-sodium diet.

- How much sodium is in Ashbeck?

- Is Ashbeck hard or soft water?

- Can you use Ashbeck for baby formula?
- Probably not the first choice. Ashbeck falls outside the German infant-formula guidance because nitrate at 24 is over the 10 mg/L line. Pick a still water that clears all three limits, boil and cool it before mixing, and ask your pediatrician.
