Why is drinking filtered water good for you?

Why is drinking filtered water good for you?

     

As more of the world's precious water supply is corrupted by pollution, more and more people are looking for alternative ways to get their dose of toxin free H20.

Water is a principal chemical compound that makes up approximately 50% to 60% of a person's weight. This bond between hydrogen and oxygen is responsible for the functioning of every system in your body. Water carries important nutrients to your cells, gets rid of toxins that build up in your vital organs and provides moisture to essential cavities like the ear, nose and throat.

You lose water daily through breathing, perspiring and some activities that a involve toilet break. To keep your body functioning optimally you need to replenish the lost water by consuming liquids and food that contain water.

The old eight 8 glasses of water a day formula is outdated and more personalised variables need to be taken into account to get your metabolism to crank at its peak efficiency. Your size, weight, where you live and what activity level you operate at need to all be taken into consideration.

As a rule of thumb, you should drink between half an ounce to an ounce of water per pound you weigh. For example, if you are 150 pounds you would need to drink 75-150 ounces a day. Additionally, if you live in a hot climate or take part in a lot of exercise you will have to increase you water intake.

Why should you drink filtered water instead of tap water?

Not all water is equal. The quality of the main ingredient in your health regime is very important. Additives to keep your life source clean negates the benefits that the component originally had. Here are some reasons why filtered water is better than any other alternatives.

  • Chlorine is used to disinfect your drinking water - this pretty much summarises why tap water can have quite a bitter taste and chemical smell to it. Having a filter will reduce chlorine drastically.

  • The water you drink may be relatively free of dirt when it leaves the water treatment centre, however, it may travel through old rusty pipes before it reaches your tap, picking up sand and dirt on its journey. Having a filter on your water sources will help reduce the amount dirt you consume.

  • You don't want everything to be filtered out of your water as there are essential minerals like Magnesium, Potassium and Calcium. By filtering your water you leave all of the good things while reducing the bad.
