Sultan said: “All living organisms need water to stay alive, and one of the main ways we get water into our bodies is by drinking it. The essential minerals that the body constantly needs to replenish are calcium, magnesium, potassium, and chlorides, which increases our immunity, brain power, bone strength and energy.”

Benefits of water

Due to its carbonation and mineral content, mineral water is known to provide multiple health benefits. One of its main benefits is the positive affect it has on our heart. Mineral water intake lowers the levels of bad (LDL) cholesterol and raises the levels of good (HDL) cholesterol. Because high cholesterol increases your risk of heart diseases and other conditions, mineral water helps keep your heart healthy and working properly.

Furthermore, it also helps in lowering hypertension (high blood pressure), relieving symptoms of constipation, regulates appetite, leads to better digestion, increases metabolism, reduces risk of developing kidney stones and leads to healthy skin, making you look younger.
