Hi i see you are questioning Calcium Chloride.., yeah i see it as an added ingredient in Smart Water and they supposedly say its an electrolyte

which means it defends the immune system

but then why is it being used in icy roads to break up black ice?

that has me questioning whether or not it is safe, and seeing how everyone never really gives accurate info on Google or the internet... there is no way to really find out

the only way is to call the FDA and confirm that it is a food grade compound.
