What is the best drinking water?
To maintain a normal and healthy metabolism, adults in our country should supplement about 2 liters of water every day, which is about 7-8 glasses of water (including water from the diet). To develop the habit of drinking water regularly, don't wait until you are thirsty to drink water, because the body is already short of water at this time.
Drinking water should pay attention to the time and method. Drink 1-2 glasses of water every morning, middle and evening. Drink it slowly and taste it carefully. You can feel a slight sweetness from it, and the urine is long and clear. The stool is moist and refreshing.
We often say that people can go without food for three days, but they can't go without drinking water for a day. Usually, when you have a headache and a fever, you go to the hospital to see a doctor. At the end, in addition to asking you to take the medicine on time, the doctor will definitely tell you to rest well and drink more water. This is not only because the medicine can only be absorbed by the human body when dissolved in water, but also because the water itself has the functions of calming, clearing heat and detoxification. Lu You, a poet in our country's Song Dynasty, lived for more than 80 years in the bumpy wandering, and once wrote a poem: "There are too many things to return the pill in the nine revolutions, and you can chase after the gods if you take water." In his opinion, drinking water for a long and healthy life is
From the perspective of drinking water and health, mainstream scientists currently agree that good drinking water should meet the following requirements:
1. It should be clean and free of pathogenic bacteria, heavy metals, and harmful chemicals.
2. It should contain an appropriate amount of minerals and trace elements.
3. It should contain a fresh and appropriate amount of dissolved oxygen.
4. It should be alkaline, with a small molecular mass and strong activity.
The current drinking water on the market can be roughly divided into three categories:
1. Pure drinking water
Very clean, especially suitable for bartending, seasoning, and drinking. In areas with poor water sources and water quality, drinking pure drinking water is a better choice. We just don't recommend children and the elderly to drink pure water.
2. Healthy drinking water
Mineral water that meets the standards is good, and tap water that has undergone deep processing (such as precision filtration, activated carbon adsorption, ultraviolet sterilization, etc.) and purified water after mineralization activation treatment can be called healthy drinking water.
3. Functional drinking water
It is a relatively new variety of drinking water. It requires water to be physically treated on the basis of cleanliness, so that the water molecules become smaller, the pH is alkaline, and the redox potential of the water is reduced, even negative. Functional drinking water has the functions of anti-fatigue, anti-oxidation, and regulating blood lipids. What is commendable is that these health care effects are produced without additives (drugs and nutrients). In addition to being used as general drinking water, it is more suitable for the elderly and target groups (such as busy work, excessive pressure, and excess nutrition) to drink.
