Water makes up about sixty percent of your body weight. As a teenager, you should drink 1.4 to 1.9 liters of water every day. Most of us get our water at a low price from our taps. But some people prefer bottled water, 46 it costs more.
Bottled water first appeared in the United States in the 1760s. A company called Jackson’s Spa bottled and sold mineral water. It said that the water could “produce good effects on people’s bodies”. Since then, bottled water has become more and more 47 worldwide. People drink about 10 percent more bottled water every year. In 2019, for the first time, Americans drank more bottled water than soda.
Why has bottled water become so popular Well, this may have something to do with people’s 48 about the purity of tap water. According to one survey, 63 percent of Americans worried a lot about the safety of their drinking water.
However, research suggests such worries are unnecessary. For most families, bottled water is not better than tap water. 49 , almost half of all bottled water comes from the tap. (The company may further process it, though) And when it comes to taste, most of us cannot tell the difference. Students at Boston University once conducted a blind taste test. Only a third of the taste-testers were able to correctly 50 the tap water from the samples.
Making bottled water, however, requires a lot of resources. Plastic bottles are usually used only once before being thrown away. Besides, more water goes into the making of a bottle of water than simply its contents. One study found that on average, companies use 1.39 liters of water to make one liter of bottled water, which means the industry actually 51 huge amounts of water.
Do you prefer bottled water to tap water It’s time to change your mind! Bottled water is more expensive. However, it isn’t much better than the water you get from your kitchen tap.
