Why purified water is healthier for you

“Drink purified water,” they said. “But why?” said we.

We all know that for some reason or other drinking water from a water purifier or water filter is better for us, but how many of us actually know what that reason (or other) actually is?

We’re so happy to inform you, that after reading this blog, you’ll now be able to sleep soundly again—call us your spies because we’re here to inform you.

When water is purified in a particular way, harmful bacteria that can cause nausea, stomach pain, and sickness are removed. At the same time, the essential minerals you need to function are still present in the water and are not stripped away during the process. All in all, water that comes from a quality purification machine or a filtered water system can have a very positive effect on your entire body. Let’s go through it, shall we?

 

 

Drinking purified water means:

  • Your skin is protected, as it creates a barrier around your body’s largest organ, and keeps it safe from impurities. Glowing skin is not just for pregnant people anymore…
  • Your hair will reap the benefits too, as it has a large impact on scalp and hair health in general. If you are just drinking regular tap water, and the chlorine that comes with it, your hair and scalp will suffer the consequences. 
  • Split ends are no more. That’s because they and brittle hair are a sign of dehydration. The solution? Purified water! It’s been proven that filtered water improves circulation to the hair follicles, which results in improved absorption of nutrients–leaving you to look like a hair model. 
  • Better muscle and joints–if you care about your joints and muscles, you should invest in a water filter system for home ASAP. That’s because purified water is pivotal in maintaining a proper fitness routine. You build muscle and exert the joints when you have an active lifestyle, and replenishing with healthy, pure water will ensure you are in good physical health. 
  • An easier weight loss journey. By consuming healthy, pure, filtered water, your body’s metabolism can be significantly boosted, and even suppress your appetite in a healthy way. It’s also completely free of calories, and there are no restrictions on how much you are allowed to consume. If only the same were true of chocolate. 

 

 

It’s nearly bedtime, we know, so we’ll wrap up: With only about 2.5% of the available water on earth being fit for consumption, it’s vital you secure a way to have purified water available to you. It has never been more important to have access to purified drinking water in South Africa than it is today.

As it turns out, BIBO can help with that. 

Our BIBO filters are designed to remove heavy metals, chlorine, arsenic, hormones, and other harmful elements from your water.

In addition to this, our filters leave all the essential minerals and irons, while removing all odour and harmful tastes. Therefore, coffee, tea, and cordials taste so much better with water from the BIBO bar.

Off to bed with you, and sleep soundly, knowing the many reasons why you should make BIBO part of your family. Tomorrow.
