What Kind of Water Do You Drink in Your Workplace?
It goes without saying that water is the elixir of life. Our health depends a lot on eating clean and drinking pure water. While at home, we rely on filtered water but at work, we might neglect the idea of checking the cleanliness of drinking water, blame it on hectic work schedule or trust too much on administration. But there are higher chances that office drinking water be contaminated!
USING WATER COOLER?
It’s not too often that water cooler placed in your work gets cleaned. Even if it is regularly monitored and cleaned, germs in a water cooler run rampant. According to National Science Foundation International, in 1 square inch of a water cooler, 2.7 million germs can be found, which is enough to make us all ill!
SHOULD YOU TRUST ON TAP WATER?
There are areas where tap water is used, usually in small offices. It also has its own concerns as tap water comes in the form of TDS, which means Total Dissolved Solids. It contains particle-sized solids of metal, minerals and salts that can contaminate tap water. While some of these TDS can be beneficial for health but it could pick up certain dangerous particles even from natural and man-made sources.
RELYING ON BOTTLED WATER?
If you think it’s as clean as purified water, then it’s time you check some facts. Bottled water is also considered as an ‘open system’, which makes it susceptible to airborne impurities. Drinking bottled water can make you prone to contaminants and diseases.
THE SOLUTION:
Water at your work can be contaminated. But that doesn’t mean you have to stay dehydrated. If possible, carry a water bottle from your home or else, try to drink lukewarm water at work. This reduces your exposure to germs.
