Mineral Water

Product Specification

Product Description

Mineral water is water from a mineral spring that contains various minerals, such as salts and sulfur compounds. Mineral water may be effervescent (i.e., "sparkling") due to contained gases. Mineral waters were used or consumed at their spring sources, often referred to as "taking the waters" or "taking the cure," at developed cities such as spas, baths, or wells. Mineral water is able to do so much good because it contains essential minerals such as iron, calcium and magnesium. Even better, mineral water, unlike tap water, will be free of added chemicals as well as preservative-free and completely natural. Benefits of Mineral Water 1. Lose Weight Any type of water including mineral water contains no calories and is fat free. When trying to ose weight, many people forget to consider the calories found in the most popular drinks such as soda and juice and these calories can make it difficult to achieve weight loss or even maintain a goal weight. The Mayo Clinic actually reports that cutting out calories from your beverages can lead to greater weight loss than simply cutting calories from your meals. When you opt for mineral water you will be able to stay at your target calorie intake while staying hydrated and feeling healthy. 2. Improve Bone Health After menopause women suffer from a gradual bone loss but this can be controlled by simply having mineral water on a regular basis. A study in one of the popular scientific journals suggested that the calcium found in mineral water may be crucial to maintaining a normal bone density and therefore preventing the development of bone related illnesses such as osteoporosis. 3. Lower Blood Pressure The magnesium found in mineral water can also play an important role in maintaining a normal blood pressure level. One study found that patients with hypertension who consumed one liter of bottled mineral water showed a decrease in blood pressure over time. The researchers propose that these patients had poor magnesium levels so consuming mineral water rich in magnesium was able to lower their blood pressure. 4. Lower LDL Cholesterol LDL cholesterol is the bad cholesterol and is one of the largest factors for developing heart problems. People who drink mineral water regularly will notice a large reduction in their risk of developing heart disease due to its ability to lower levels of LDL cholesterol. In addition, some of the minerals found in mineral water such as potassium and magnesium support heart function. 5. Aid Digestion Mineral water is also a great source of sulfates which help promote digestion. That is because sulfates stimulate the pancreas so it releases enzymes such as amylases, proteases and lipases that help digest food properly. Low sulfate levels can cause poor digestive health or even bloating, constipation or diarrhea. 6. Maintain Muscle Performance Mineral water that is rich in magnesium may also help play a key role in the function of muscles. That is because magnesium is an essential mineral for our bodies as it allows muscles to relax and contract properly. That is why muscle aches and cramps are one of the signs of magnesium deficiency. 7. Maintain Electrolyte Balance Electrolytes are salts (bicarbonate, chloride, potassium and sodium) which prevent dehydration by helping the cells of the body absorb water. Because mineral water can be a great source of electrolytes, those who experience an electrolyte imbalance are frequently asked to consume mineral water in order to replenish their electrolyte loss.
