Which Is More Better -These New Drinks Or Only Water?
You must be joking. We are the generation that has an opinion that pure drinking water is boring.This has raised the production of flavored water or sport water with added vitamins in multi-million dollar market.You can buy natural mixers to add flavour to bottled water by yourself. Flavored water encourages people to drink more water.We are becoming a little spoilt by intaking these drinks, isen’t it?
Except for vitamin waters, flavored waters are just have, flavor and water and often a sweetener. We are drinking water with more additives which is not healthy at all? These are some of the questions that many of us are beginning to have.
Currently market is full of unsweetened bottled water. This water is little flavored to make the water tasty.
Then there are the sweetened bottled water – sweetened with sucralose or carbonated sweetened bottled water. Many of these are currently claiming zero calories but are they really?
No one should throw their regular vitamins.You are supposed to read the label on any of these vitamin drinks carefully. Purchase a Glacéau brand also known as Vitaminwater Essential Orange Carrot. The dosage of vitamins and minerals from A through Zinc are on the label. On scrutinizing you will find the expensive bottle has almost 100 calories but only has between 2 percent to 50 percent of the daily value needed of 12 vitamins and minerals with several necessary vitamins and minerals missing. Do we really get for what we pay?
Many companies represent different types of brands of oxygenated water. Are we getting the value of money when we pay for with this product?
Water, any water, on exposure to air is considered oxygenated. This is increased by adding pressure to the water to add more oxygen gas.As the top of the bottle is taken out the oxygen from it goes into the air. Still intaking oxygenated water then you may get a small amount of oxygen into your body. But how much oxygen really finds your blood system?
The (ACE) The American Council on Exercise recently released results of their study of water claiming to be super oxygenated.These waters advertise increase in energy and mental ability of the athletes who need that extra boost or anyone who wants to be healthier. The study tested performance effects of several water products claiming to be oxygenated against regular municipal water.
Researchers said that intake of oxygenated water is effectless on amount of blood lactate ,heart rate at rest or blood pressure. The outcomes were not amazing and it was pointed that in normal healthy exercise red blood cells are approximately 100% saturate with oxygen. The “placebo effect” may be the cause of the benefits from oxygenated water products.
Researchers also examine water of brand name bottles for oxygen analysis. The tests showed that the oxygenated waters in the market had three times less the amount of oxygen in comparison of municipal tap water.
The study reinforce ACE’s opinion about water products that they do not always live up to their advertising. The ACE pointed that it will always do the promotion of healthy hydration because water is one of the most necessary elements of a human body.Body temperature is regulated, critical organs are protected by water and it also helps in digestion. That is available from plain water only!
