We all know by now that most of our body is water, right? Most of us also know that the body cannot store water but gets rid of it via breathing, coughing, sneezing, urinating, and sweating and that we need to constantly replace the water lost by drinking water regularly.
The problem is that many of us drink anything other than water because we do not like the smell or taste of water and it is just boring to drink water anyway. While this is true in the main, and we can make up some of the lost fluids by drinking other drinks and eating water-rich fruit and vegetables, most of our daily fluid requirement must be pure water.
What are the Health Benefits of Water Coolers?
This is where the health benefits of water coolers come into play.
Investing in a water cooler, whether it be an office water or a home water cooler; small or large capacity; freestanding, wall-mounted, counter-top or under-counter model; bottled or mains-fed, will make a huge difference.
Water coolers offer great health benefits such as:
- A water cooler makes it easy to drink water more often because it makes fresh, great-tasting drinking water more accessible;
- Drinking water from a water cooler is healthier because it is usually filtered water, which means that there are no toxins in it. Even though the governments tell us that the water in our taps is healthy to drink, research has proven that the chlorine and fluoride used by most governments and water companies to treat drinking water is not healthy and can even cause cancer;
- Water coolers keep the drinking water nicely chilled, which makes it a far better option; therefore people drink more water;
- Drinking water ensures that the brain, which supports nerve function, gets enough electrolytes as well as sufficient oxygen to enable it to function optimally. Without water the brain loses much of its ability to perform even simple mathematical functions;
- Having a water cooler promotes a better atmosphere in the office because staying hydrated keeps one’s mood regular and the little gatherings around the water cooler every now and again are not time-wasting, but actually foster good team relations;
- Ensuring that individuals have sufficient water to drink promotes overall good health, including good heart health because it keeps the blood at the correct viscosity so that it can freely flow to all corners of the body, delivering fresh oxygenated blood.
