How to drink water for healthier !

        We all know that water is a necessity for our life activities. It maintains our physical health and maintains our normal activities. It can be said that we cannot do without it every day. How much do you know about the various types of water we drink every day? Are they all healthy for our body?

Classification of drinking water

        When it comes to drinking water, whether it is a supermarket or a cold drink shop on the street, it can be said that there are many varieties and different brands. Do you know that the drinking water we usually drink is roughly divided into several categories? Are they healthy for our bodies? First of all, let's first understand how many kinds of drinking water are there. The bottled drinking water currently sold on the market is really diverse, but there are no more than three categories, pure water, mineral water and natural mineral water.

Pure water

        Pure water has nothing but water. If you drink small bottles occasionally, the problem is not big, and the impact on your health is negligible, but if you drink bottled purified water for a long time or drink small bottles of purified water often, the problem will be more.

        Drinking purified water for a long time can increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. In addition, it can also cause the loss of some minerals and calcium in the body, including damage to our kidney function. Because purified water generally uses urban drinking water as the source of water, the minerals necessary for the human body such as potassium, calcium, and magnesium are removed during the production process. It can be said that this kind of water is only safe water that can be drunk, not healthy water. In addition, distilled water and purified water in supermarkets are the same thing, not healthy water. Some European countries even stipulate that purified water cannot be used as drinking water.

Mineral water

        There are two types of water containing minerals, one is mineral water and the other is mineral water. Although both mineral water and mineral water contain minerals, there is a big difference. The minerals in mineral water are artificially added. Mineral water is purely natural. Some people think that mineral water can supplement the minerals needed by the human body. In fact, most of the various minerals and trace elements needed by the human body rely on food. Acquired.

        According to statistics, the calcium content of 200 cups of mineral water is equal to the calcium content of 1 cup of milk; the iron content of 8,200 cups of water is equal to the iron content of 1 piece of meat. Obviously, the minerals that can be replenished by drinking water are really negligible. The minerals obtained from a normal diet every day are far greater than what the human body needs, and many of them will be excreted casually.

        Many families put large buckets of pure water or mineral water on the drinking fountain to drink slowly, and this water should not be left for too long. It must be used up within fifteen days. The bacteria in the water will exceed the standard after a long time. If you drink it again, it may cause diarrhea. In addition, drinking water is easier to fake, so you must go to a large supermarket with quality assurance when you buy it.

Is the tap water at home healthy?

        Since July 1, 2007, the new "Sanitary Standards for Drinking Water" has been implemented, and new mandatory national standards have been introduced. The water quality indicators have increased from 35 to 106, which can be said to be more stringent and suitable for domestic water consumption. Drink for a long time.

        However, although our country has strict standards for drinking water for residents, it is not recommended that you drink it directly. Even if the tap water is fully up to the standard when leaving the factory, there are still many uncertain factors in the transportation, storage, etc., before reaching the residential water point. , There may be "secondary pollution", so it cannot be directly consumed. So, if you are used to drinking tap water at home, it is better to boil it.

How to choose a water purifier?

        Nowadays, many businesses have launched home drinking water purifiers. According to their functions, water purifiers are divided into general water quality processors and reverse osmosis water purifiers. No matter which type of water purifier, it must have both sexes, that is, health and safety. And functionality.

        That is to say, the water purifier itself must be safe. During the contact with water, the toxic and harmful substances contained in the human body must not be brought into the drinking water, causing secondary pollution to the drinking water; secondly, the water purifier must have a water purification device. Function, can purify and remove harmful substances in water.

        At present, the main reasons for the unqualified quality of some water purification products are that the heavy metals themselves exceed the standard, and the microbiological indicators of the water after using the water purifier exceed the standard, and the water purification function is unqualified.

        When buying a water purifier, consumers must see whether the product has a sanitation license issued by the health administrative department above the provincial level. Such a product is safe.

        In addition, when using the water purifier, the filter element or membrane must be replaced regularly in accordance with the requirements of the manual.
