Mineral Water vs Spring Water

Understanding Crazy Water and Its Natural Mineral Content

Mineral water is not the same as spring water.

While spring water is filtered naturally through rock and soil, true mineral water comes from deep underground wells and contains naturally occurring minerals that remain consistent at the source.

Crazy Water is a natural mineral water drawn from deep mineral wells in Mineral Wells, Texas, where people have been drinking mineral-rich water since 1881.

 

What Makes Mineral Water Different

Mineral water must meet strict standards:

  • Minerals occur naturally at the source

  • Minerals cannot be added

  • Mineral levels remain consistent

  • Water is bottled directly from the well

Crazy Water contains naturally occurring electrolytes and minerals, infused by nature — not added later by processing.

 

Crazy Water Mineral Content (mg/L)

Crazy Water is available in three mineral strengths, allowing people to choose what works best for them.

Mineral Breakdown

 

Mineral No.2 No.3 No.4
Calcium 12 31 64
Magnesium 7 17 39
Potassium 3 4 10
Bicarbonate (HCO₃) 285 344 582
Sulfate 174 86 1140
Sodium Chloride 161 224 410
Silica 5.8 6.5 6.6
Lithium 0.03 0.04 0.13
pH 8.0 8.2 8.1
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) 740 810 2340

 

Mineral content naturally fluctuates by ±30% due to seasonal rainfall and drought.

 

Understanding the Minerals in Crazy Water

Alkalinity

  • Helps neutralize acidity in the body

  • Supports a balanced internal environment

  • Contributes to Crazy Water’s naturally alkaline pH

Sodium Bicarbonate (NaHCO₃)

  • Helps maintain pH balance

  • Assists in buffering lactic acid produced during physical activity

  • Commonly associated with reduced fatigue during exertion

Calcium (Ca++)

  • Supports bone structure and teeth

  • Helps maintain healthy cell membranes

  • Plays a role in blood function

Magnesium (Mg++)

  • Found in nearly all human cells

  • Supports bone structure

  • Helps expand blood vessels and support circulation

Chloride (Cl-)

  • Essential for metabolism

  • Helps convert food into energy

  • Supports acid-base balance

Potassium (K+)

  • Aids in growth of new cells

  • Helps regulate fluid pressure between cells

  • Ensures cells receive adequate nutrients

Manganese (Mn)

  • Supports bone density

  • Helps metabolize fats, carbohydrates, and proteins

  • Plays a role in stabilizing free radicals

Silica (SiO₂)

  • Essential mineral building block

  • Supports tissue repair

  • Associated with hair, skin, and nail strength

Sulfate (SO₄)

  • Supports liver detoxification

  • Aids digestion by stimulating the gallbladder

  • Acts as a laxative at higher concentrations

Zinc (Zn)

  • Supports immune function

  • Aids mineral absorption

  • Supports skin and hair health


Choosing the Right Crazy Water

  • Light, crisp mineral profile

  • Drawn from a 250-foot deep well

  • Suitable for drinking throughout the day

Crazy No.3

  • Medium mineral content

  • Well-balanced for trace minerals and electrolytes

  • Drawn from a 360-foot deep well

  • Suitable for daily use

Crazy No.4

  • Full-bodied mineral water

  • Highest mineral concentration

  • Drawn from a 120-foot deep well

  • Often consumed in 1–2 glasses per day

  • Commonly paired with No.2 or No.3


A History Rooted in Mineral Wells, Texas

The waters of Mineral Wells, Texas have been consumed since the late 1800s. They gained national attention when visitors reported feeling better after drinking directly from the wells.

Crazy Water continues this tradition today, offering mineral water bottled directly from the source, just as it has been for generations.


Final Note

Crazy Water is not designed to replace all water consumption.

It is designed to supplement hydration with naturally occurring minerals, allowing people to choose how and when they consume it.
