Why is it important to drink water?

The human body is nearly 60% water. Daily activity and the dehydrating effects of products such as coffee, alcohol, and soft drinks deplete the water in your body, so it is important to continually replenish your reserves. Your body needs water for a variety of functions such as regulating body temperature, transporting nutrients and oxygen to cells, cushioning joints and removing waste.

How much water do I need each day?

Health experts and nutritionists recommend eight 8 oz. servings per day. Most people are dehydrated to some degree, because they don't drink the recommended number of servings each day. Dehydration can lead to dry skin, headaches and other more serious health concerns.

What are the benefits of bottled water?

The key benefit of bottled water is hydration. Having easy access to quality water and getting in the habit of consuming water on a regular basis promotes proper hydration and overall good health. When bottled water is easily accessible, it encourages children and adults to get in the habit of drinking water rather than more expensive and less healthy beverages, such as soda pop and fruit drinks.
