Bottled-vs-tap-the-business-of-water

By -
We already discuss the bottled water, its price, its cost and effect on the environment. Most of the water bottles are made from a kind of plastic name "Polyethylene Terephthalate". 

BOTTLED WATER V/S TAP WATER

Manufacturing these type of plastic product produce a variety of toxic chemicals into the air. Second water bottles use energy at every stage of making like making the bottle, filling them, shipping them etc. Well, you might be surprised to know that over the last years the bottled water industry has grown up to 13%.Statistics show that customers are choosing bottled water over soft drinks as a healthier alternative. Is this water that much healthier than tap water though? In a research worldwide nearly one out of every ten people in the world don't have reliable access to clean water. In America, Americans have much reason to prefer bottled water to tap water. Some like taste of the water and some prefer portability or disposable bottle.But all of this bottled water comes with a cost, both for consumers and for the environment. 


So what do you say? Let's take a stand against this. Why not leave bottled water for those who really need it and stop paying for something that we're lucky enough to have flowed freely from our taps

It has been recently seen by the scientist that water is so important for our body and our immunity system. We use water to process several functions of our body. Over 70% of our body is water. Our nervous system which is responsible for sending the electrical signals to every cell in our body is really a system of miniscule waterways. A lack of water is disturbed this system and cause to lead the dehydration of the nervous system. Many scientist and doctors agree on this one point that this condition is caused by many neurological disorders. Our digestive system required pure water to digest our food as well as get the optimal nutrient absorption. Pure water can also either positively or negatively affect our energy levels depending on whether or not we are properly hydrated, in fact, it has been proven in clinical studies that even a 5% reduction in body fluids can cause as much as a 30% loss of energy and a 15% drop in body fluids leads to death.
