A little over a year ago after a Hakala Test I found that my Bromine level was 18 I had been drinking 2 liters of Mountain Dew for a decade. Needless to say i stopped immediately. I started drinking drinking a minimum of 64 ounces of water a day to which I added 1/2 teaspoon of Celtic Sea Salt . A year later my Bromine levels have dropped to a more reasonable level of 4.
