The bottled drinking water market is growing faster and this write-up will explore a number of the main reasons why

There is a huge number of different brands and kinds of drinking water; not forgetting the municipal/tap waters supplies. Now, municipal water is quite safe and very inexpensive, so just why are people spending billions to purchase water in bottles? Is it simply the benefit of being able to take small bottles around, so that we might have water around all the time? Could it be merely a fad that will soon die out? Is it all the new, cute, multi-colored bottles that are marketed towards teenagers or younger? If I were a venture capitalist, can i invest in this industry or wait to see what is going to happen?

Now, I’m able to understand in developing countries where the supplies of safe, clean drinking water are rare and lots of people are dying from a water crisis. So, safe drinking water can be provided in large bottled supplies and the children and others could be helped. However in developed countries with safe municipal water supplies it doesnt make economic sense.

The different types of water are vast. There is distilled water that is just H2O in one end and spa waters with carbonates and minerals on the other end. So, I guess prior to deciding what water is the best for you and your family, you must examine your reasons behind wanting bottled water.

If money is not an object and you also do not like the flavour or looks of municipal water in your city then the sky is the limit in price and variety of bottled drinking water. It is best if you have a little child and you are traveling from one source of drinking water to a different city municipal water supply. This was often a challenge with my children when they were infants because the difference in cities supplies would always make them sick. So, bottled water was actually almost a necessity as well as a convenience.

Bottled water is almost necessary in a very hot climate you can always have a bottle of water with you constantly. This is essential in the summer time where temperatures could get over 100 degrees or even more in some regions of the United States and it is very easy to get dehydrated.

So, it appears as if, except for a few of the about reasons, it is really up to every individual preference. In short, if you like bubbles go for sparkling water. If you want great taste, go for spring water.

However, in general, artesian waters as opposed to surface waters should be chosen. Artesian supplies are underground lakes, usually isolated from contamination. Surface waters and near surface wells and springs could be much more easily contaminated with industrial or agriculture run-off.

Put simply, there is no water which will make you appear younger or healthy if you dont live a healthy lifestyle. But if you wish to believe that a brand of water will make you healthy, then buy it. All in all, most bottled drinking water remains safe and secure and healthy to drink. So if one brand makes you drink more water, then that is the one for you because the main and most important thing is that you drink enough water every day to help keep you and your family healthy and hydrated.
