Plastic bottle

Avoid drinking water from plastic bottles, as they can leach toxins into your water, especially when exposed to heat or sunlight. There is proven research that shows bottled water can contain up to 250,000 nanoplastic particles per liter, which are small enough to enter the human body and potentially cross the blood-brain barrier, leading to cellular and DNA damage

The chemicals commonly found in plastics, such as BPA (Bisphenol A) and phthalates, are known endocrine disruptors. These substances can interfere with hormone function, potentially causing reproductive issues, increased cancer risk, and immune system disturbances. For instance, exposure to phthalates has been linked to liver cancer and a reduction in sperm count in men

Also - there is an alarming rise in certain health conditions among those who frequently consume bottled water, including a 13% increase in cancer rates among individuals under 50 and a 15% increase in digestive disorders like inflammatory bowel disease

What to do instead?

Glass Bottles: Non-toxic and reusable, glass does not leach harmful chemicals.

Stainless Steel Bottles: Durable and insulated, these bottles keep beverages cold or hot without chemical contamination.

Copper Bottles: Lightweight and recyclable, copper is another eco-friendly option.

Reusable Water Flasks: Designed for long-term use, these flasks often come with insulation features.

Drink from earthenware

- Drinking from earthenware helps cool the body naturally and can enhance hydration. 

- It also adds beneficial minerals to the water, promoting overall health.

Consider using containers made from brass, copper, silver, glass, or stainless steel. These materials are non-toxic.
