                                According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), food-grade magnesium sulfate is commonly used as a flavor enhancer in bottled water, particularly in purified water products. If you've ever seen this ingredient on a label and wondered about its purpose, the reason is to improve the taste and mineral profile of the water you are drinking.
