As we step into 2024, countless individuals worldwide have set new resolutions for the year. Yet, a startling statistic reveals that by February, about 80% of these resolutions fall by the wayside. Among the myriad reasons, one often overlooked yet crucial factor is hydration.
Adequate hydration is not just about quenching thirst; it’s a cornerstone of health. Studies show that staying well-hydrated aids in weight loss by enhancing satiety, boosts metabolism, and helps in reducing water retention. More than just aiding in weight management, proper hydration is essential for maintaining energy levels, improving physical performance, and sharpening cognitive functions.
Take Janine from Wales, for example. Her resolution to exercise more was hindered by a lack of energy, a common issue that many face. “I always felt too tired for the gym, leading to a cycle of guilt and lethargy,” she shares. This scenario is not uncommon, and the quality of the water we drink plays a significant role.
According to the World Health Organization, contaminated water and poor sanitation are linked to transmission of diseases such as cholera, diarrhoea, dysentery, hepatitis A, typhoid and polio. Absent, inadequate, or inappropriately managed water and sanitation services expose individuals to preventable health risks. Clean, safe water is therefore not just a luxury, but a necessity.
In the realm of water purification, technologies like the HomePure Viva Water Ioniser and Filter have emerged. This device features a multi-stage filtration system and smart technology to reduce bacteria and viruses in water. It also includes a nine-plate water ionizer with platinum-coated titanium electrodes, adjusting water pH for various health benefits. These benefits range from immune support to improved mental function and better taste.
Alkaline water, with its higher pH level, is known for its potential health benefits, including protecting cells from oxidative damage, and aiding in detoxification. The ionized water, rich in negatively charged hydroxide ions, is believed to enhance absorption, thereby improving hydration and gastrointestinal health.
Janine noticed a significant change after using such a water filtration system. “My energy levels improved, and I finally found the motivation to return to the gym,” she says.
Water quality is vital, according to Paul McHenry, the Chief Marketing Officer of QNET, a direct selling company that offers the HomePure brand of products, which focus on wellness-based home care appliances. He says, “Water is more than just a basic necessity; it’s the foundation of our health and well-being. In today’s world, where water quality can be compromised, it’s vital to ensure that what we consume is not only safe but beneficial for our bodies. Our goal at QNET is to provide a solution that not only purifies water but also enhances its health properties, supporting individuals in their journey towards better health and fulfilment of their personal goals.”
As we navigate our resolutions, understanding the role of hydration in our daily lives is key. Ensuring access to clean, quality water might just be the step needed to maintain those New Year commitments.
