Causes That Make These New Drinks Better Than Only Water
You must be making fun. We are the generation that feels pure drinking water is not interesting, that is unless it’s being used for flavored coffee. This has started the multi-million dollar market for flavored water or sport water with added vitamins.You yourself can add flavor to bottled water using natural mixers.Water with flavor encourages people to intake more water.But aren’t we becoming a little spoiled by using these flavored drinks, isn’t it?
Except for vitamin waters, flavored waters are just have, flavor and water and often a sweetening agent. We should drink water according to our requirement instead of drinking water with more additives and let me ask you is it really healthy?These are some of the questions which lot of us are beginning to ask.
On the market currently is unsweetened bottled water. Flavored water can easily be drunk .
Then there are the sweetened bottled water – sweetened with sucrose or carbonated sweetened bottled water. Many of these are controversy claiming zero calories but are they really?
Don’t throw away your regular vitamins.You are advised to read the label on one of these vitamin drinks carefully. Take a Glacéau brand called Vitamin water Essential Orange Carrot. The dosage of vitamins and minerals from A through Zinc are on the label. You will be surprised to know that 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. So, are we really getting according to our payment?
Many companies represent different types of brands of oxygenated water. Does this product provide value against our money?
Water, any water, by it being exposed to air is considered oxygenated. This is increased by adding pressure to the water to add more oxygen gas.The oxygen goes back out into the air when the top of bottle is removed. A small amount of oxygen can enter in your body while drinking oxygenated water.How much oxygen really gets the blood system of your body?
The American Council on Exercise (ACE) recently disclosed results of their study which proves water to be extra oxygenated.These waters gives more energy and mental ability to athletes needing extra boost up or the one who wants to be healthier. The study tested performance effects of many water brands claiming to be oxygenated in comparison of regular municipal water.
Researchers found that oxygenated water is non effective on heart rate at rest, blood pressure or blood lactate numbers. The results were not shocking and were noted that red blood cells are nearly100% saturate with oxygen in normal exercise. They also state that any benefits of oxygenated water products could be possibly caused by the “placebo effect”.
Researchers also studied water of famous brand to see the content of oxygen. 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 advertising of water products are far from truth. But as water is the most important element of our body the ACE said that it will always go on promoting healthy hydration.Water protects critical organs, maintains the body temperature and helps the digestion. Except plain water no other water can give you that!
