Water is life. As the most abundant constituent of the human body, water consumption is essential for optimal bodily function and performance. Whether you require the highest level of concentration at the office or need to keep yourself and your children healthy and hydrated at home, bottled water coolers make the pursuit of adequate hydration more convenient and pleasurable.
The health benefits of drinking more water are well documented, but implementing this into your busy schedule is not so easy. This is where bottled water coolers are an affordable convenience and a functional benefit.
At Living-Water (London’s leading independent water delivery and bottled water cooler company), we want to show you how easy it is to stay hydrated at home and in the workplace:
#1 Clean water is a requirement by law
According to the Workplace Health, Safety & Welfare Regulations of 1992, ‘An adequate supply of wholesome drinking water should be given to all persons at work in the workplace.’ This also includes the supply of cups/glasses for water consumption.
While this may seem as simple as giving staff access to a basic tap, supplying cool, hydrating filtered spring water could be the cherry on top for your business’s health and safety regulations fulfilment and staff satisfaction.
Living-Water office water coolers supply crystal clean spring water derived from the Wenlock Mountain Range. This water has been filtered through geologically famous rock strata before reaching our bottles, ensuring quality and purity and providing a good balance of minerals and is medium in calcium, providing an extra nutritional boost for consumers.
Did you know? Spring water is water in its purest form, free from contaminants that could be present in tap water including copper, lead, bacteria and toxins that might pollute the water during its journey through pipes.
#2 Water boosts mental and physical performance
Besides the daily amount of water your body needs according to your weight, different jobs and different levels of exercise and sports activities require varying amounts of hydration.
- A chartered accountant may spend most of their hours behind a desk, requiring mental agility and quick thinking skills, while expending little physical energy on daily tasks.
- A construction worker uses a whole lot of physical strength and sweats more during the laying of bricks and carrying of heavy machinery, requiring more hydration, carbohydrates and sugar.
- A stay-at-home mother might run around after her 3-year-old toddler (trying to keep them optimally nourished and hydrated), while nursing another 3 month-old infant through breastfeeding. While her tasks may not require as much physical exertion as that of a manual labourer, they still require a lot of hydration and fuel to keep going.
According to the Journal of Nutrition, 1.4% fluid loss in young women during exercise can impair mood and concentration as well as increase the frequency of headaches. The same research team also found that a 1.6% fluid loss in men resulted in decreased working memory and increased feelings of anxiety and fatigue.
Staying alert and optimising productivity and well-being are reasons to invest in a bottled water cooler from Living-Water for your home or business. Our prompt, free delivery, installation and site assessment in the Greater London area make it even easier to please your staff (and family) and keep them operating at their best.
#3 Water promotes healthy bodily functioning
The UK Government recommends the consumption of 6-8 glasses of water per day (or 1.2 litres). While this differs according to your level of physical activity and work, it is a safe ballpark figure to go by.
Drinking enough water is vital for the performance of many bodily functions including:
- Regulation of body temperature
- Lubrication of joints
- Prevention of infections
- Delivery of nutrients to cells
- Provision of optimal organ function
- Improved sleep
- Removal of bodily waste and more.
A bottled water cooler or dispenser is clearly a convenient solution to staying hydrated, productive and healthy. For a variety of options to suit your unique context and budget, look no further than Living-Water.
