As the saying goes, "water is life," and it plays a crucial role in sustaining human life. A mere 2% decrease in the body's water content can cause severe thirst, a 5% deficit can lead to a coma, and losing around 10% can be fatal. During the hot and humid summer months, it's especially important to stay hydrated due to increased sweating. So, why is clean water essential for a healthy life? Let's explore Atomy's essentials for safe hydration.

We've moved beyond the centenarian era and are now looking toward living to 120. Many factors have contributed to increased life expectancy, including advances in medical technology. Interestingly, clean water and proper sewage systems are key reasons for this improvement. In 2007, the British Medical Journal surveyed its subscriber physicians about the most significant medical achievements of the past 150 years. Surprisingly, their top choice was 'water and sewage,' not medicine.
In fact, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the average human life expectancy increased by about 30 years from 1900 to 1999. They attributed this increase to the access of clean water and sewage systems, which helped prevent diseases like pneumonia, tuberculosis, and cholera. However, with only 0.5% of the planet's water available for drinking—and that number rapidly declining—concerns about the safety of our drinking water persist. This makes humanity's quest for clean, safe water more important than ever.

Quality water is clean and free from environmental hormones, heavy metals, radioactive substances, and other harmful contaminants. It should also be rich in beneficial minerals, which are essential for the body but cannot be synthesized internally and must be obtained from external sources. Therefore, drinking mineral-rich water is important.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), 'safe water' is defined as water that is free from harmful substances, slightly alkaline, and contains an adequate amount of minerals. The WHO also warns that consistently drinking water with low mineral content can pose health risks. To ensure you have mineral-rich water at home, it's best to use a water purifier that retains essential minerals while filtering out harmful substances. Make sure your water purifier is equipped with the latest filter technology to achieve this balance.
