It is vital that you do not only drink water at home, but that you also drink water at work, especially seeing as most of us spend more time at work than we do at home – well while we are awake anyway.
I think most people know by now that the human body consists of around 70% water, and that it is vital to maintain this balance, but did you know that a mere 2% drop in body-water levels already starts to affect the way that you operate? When you exhibit signs of a dry mouth and thirst you are already around 2% dehydrated so need to drink water immediately.
The tap water in most of the developed world is of fair to good quality, water in third world countries is often not of a good enough quality to drink. Even in First World countries like the U.s and the U.K. there are problems with the tap water which precludes many individuals from drinking it.
The chemicals used to make water hygienic enough to drink are often a part of the problem, as the smell of chlorine or fluoride is often enough to make some people gag and not want to drink it. Bottled water became popular for a long time but studies showed many brands to be just plain old tap water anyway, and besides it can end up being rather expensive too.
One easy method of ensuring that you drink sufficient water at work is by ensuring that the water is so good and so refreshing that you just want to drink it. This can be achieved by investing in a water cooler that can provide chilled, great-tasting water virtually 24/7.
You have a choice of bottled water coolers such as the Living-Water range of bottled water coolers that serve Living-Water Spring Water sourced from a natural source in the Wenlock range and bottled at source; or mains water coolers that are plumbed directly into your main municipal water pipes and which can be fitted with a really good filter like the Living-Water Triple Activated Carbon Filter.
