Mineral water contains certain minerals that are beneficial to the human body and are important because of their healing properties. Our body can absorb minerals from water more easily than food. Hence, more minerals can be obtained by drinking mineral water. Despite certain benefits, there are several reasons why people are reluctant to drink mineral water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It will give you essential minerals such as calcium, magnesium and potassium. However, some brands may also have minerals that are less useful, such as sodium, sulfur, and nitrate.
Although you need minerals to maintain a healthy body, they can be taken with a healthy and balanced diet or by taking supplements. The body needs minerals only in small quantities. Hence, there is no need to drink mineral water to obtain it, especially since each production will give a different composition.
Bottled beverages, including bottled mineral water, are not healthy. Chemicals in plastic bottles can be released into the water, especially if left in a car on a hot sunny day.
Bottled water costs more than tap water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Can we rely on drinking tap water or is it better to buy bottled water? Among the several brands for sale, which one to choose? Before buying bottled mineral water, read the label. Make healthier choices by understanding its content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Check the following ingredients on the label:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sodium: Consumption of sodium in diet and water together should not exceed the recommended limit. This will be harmful, especially for patients with high blood pressure.
Nitrates: Mineral water with a high nitrate content can be harmful to pregnant women and babies under six months. It is therefore advisable to avoid brands that contain nitrates in it.
Aluminum: Although the effects of aluminum are still uncertain, especially with regard to Alzheimer's disease, it is best to avoid brands that have traces of it in their water.
Sulfates: Sulfate is present in most groundwater; you will find almost all brands with traces of this mineral. Sulfates are known to detoxify the liver, aid digestion and improve skin health by increasing circulation. It also reduces muscle cramps.
Additional information on checking the label<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Not all bottled mineral water comes from natural sources. It can be distilled or tap water that has been subsequently treated and added with minerals during the bottling phase. Hence, read the label to know if you are buying natural mineral water or otherwise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Also read the label for the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Acidity (pH): Mineral water should be neutral and have a pH level of 7 or slightly higher. Below 7 means that the water is acidic and above 7 is alkaline.
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS): Must be at least 250 mg \/ liter (or 250 parts per million)
Every day we lose body water through sweat and other bodily wastes. On average, we have to replace about 5 liters of water per day. Therefore, drinking adequate amounts of quality water will keep our body in good working order.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
