title: [Sanitary characteristics of bottled drinking water].
abstract: In this communication we intend to highlight the main characteristics of the natural mineral waters, the spring waters, the prepared potable waters and the public consumption waters conjuncturally bottled, all of then admitted by the Spanish legislation as "bottled drinking waters", among which we do not find mineral medicinal waters, due to their widely known therapeutical effectiveness, which places them in an independent group. It is made reference to the "table waters", nice to the taste and favorable for the health but without concrete therapeutical effects. Among these waters we can to detach the carbogaseoses waters. Finally, the importance of the bottled drinking waters is fundamental in the extreme ages of life: in the baby born children and also in their first months of life as well as in the elderly.
