Pluto Water

Jump to navigation Jump to search

Pluto Water was a trademark for a strongly laxative natural water product which was very popular in the United States in the early 20th century. The water's high native content of mineral salts generally made it effective within one hour of ingestion, a fact the company played up in their promotional literature.

Louis Armstrong reported favoring Pluto Water until he switched to Swiss Kriss.
