PRECAUTIONS AND DRINKING MINERAL WATER

• By jamesking •

Mineral water is one of the most underrated supplements out there. It isn't just the delicious fizzy taste; it also contains, as you might guess, some minerals! One under-appreciated mineral is sulfate, and there is lots of sulfate in San Pellegrino compared to most other mineral waters.

Lists of the benefits of drinking water can be interesting and motivational. They are most useful to students of nutrition when understood in the context of why the body needs water and how it uses it. Here is a list of 7 of the health benefits of water in the human diet.

Benefits of Sparkling Mineral Water:

Lose Weight

Any type of water including mineral water contains no calories and is fat free. When trying to lose 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.

Rich source of calcium

There is a good reason why this water is called "mineral" water. It contains a significant level of minerals, including calcium. This mineral is known for its role in strengthening the bones and improving muscle functions (including the function of the heart muscle), cell signaling, neurotransmission and hormone secretion. The combination of balanced diet and drinking sparkling water, which contains minerals and mineral salts, ensures the welfare of your vital functions, psychological and physical health.

Promotes Bone Health

Mineral water is rich in calcium. Calcium is the most important mineral involved in bone formation. Thus, daily consumption of mineral water ensures daily supplement of calcium in the body. It strengthens human bones, teeth and even nails against damage.

Increases Physical Alertness

Mineral water is a mixture of different minerals like magnesium and potassium. These minerals are required for the proper growth and functioning of human muscles. They improve the response rate of muscles. The muscles become more supportive to contraction and expansion. Hence, mineral water increases physical alertness and an overall well-being of an individual.

Joint and muscle health

Synovial joints are among the structures of the body that require lubrication in order to function properly, effectively and comfortably. The water that forms the fluids in and around joints helps to prevent excessive friction between moving surfaces and so ease movement.

Muscle tissue requires sufficient supply of fluids bringing nutrients to maintain tissues, enable and support performance and reduce risk of muscle cramps and sprains. (A possible contributory to muscle cramp is insufficient supply of electrolytes in body fluids.

Increases Mental Alertness

Potassium is also called as a memory charging mineral. It is an active constituent of the electrolyte in brain. Hence, mineral water is a good option for boosting one's memory and concentration. It increases mental alertness and hampers mental fatigue and lethargy.

Emotional outlook

Drinking the right amount of water is sometimes said to be good for mental health, including helping people to be or stay in a "good mood". Psychology, emotions, and mental health are huge subjects that shouldn't be trivialized. However, to the extent that intake of sufficient water is considered "good for the body" and a comfortable, healthy, energetic body is likely to have a positive effect on the mind, it seems reasonable to suppose that drinking enough water would have a positive effect on the mind and emotions as well. This is even more likely to be true if the person enjoyed drinking the water, e.g. as a cool refreshing boost on a hot day or in a stuffy office.
