Yes, you will burp more. That’s the price of admission to the Fizzy Water Club. The carbon dioxide gas gets trapped in your stomach, and then your body says, “Get this out, please.”

Does it help digestion? Maybe!
Some people swear sparkling water settles their stomach. There’s a little science to back this up. The bubbles can stimulate digestion by encouraging swallowing and burping—which gets that gas out.
