Oxygenated Bottled Water

Have you seen the new oxygenated bottled water on the market? It's the newest trend in designer water that claims to increase vitality thanks to added oxygen. While it's true that increasing oxygen intake may affect athletic performance, there is little to show that oxygenated water has this effect. The reason for this is because oxygen is taken in through the lungs, not the stomach. While your body may absorb some of the oxygen contained in the water, it's not going to be enough to increase athletic performance. However, this does not mean that there are zero benefits to oxygen enhanced water.

Some of the oxygenated water brands on the market may also contain minerals also such as silica and magnesium. Electrolytes are also popular additions to some of the athletic and designer water brands out there. One reason many people choose this type of water is simply taste. Different people have different preferences when it comes to the flavor of their drinking water. The more finicky consumers will tell you they can tell a difference between different brands of water, and they likely can as all water does not taste the same.

There are quite a few oxygen water choices on store shelves these days. One brand is called HiOsilver Oxygen Water and is one of the brands that contains additional minerals. In one bottle you will get trace amounts of minerals like chromium, copper, fluoride, iron, magnesium, potassium and more. The company says their water contains approximately 10 times as much oxygen as traditional bottled water. This brand of water comes in glass bottles to preserve the oxygen content. If you cannot find this or other brands of oxygen water in stores they can be bought online.

The consensus on oxygenated bottled water is that while a lot of the claims surrounding this type of water are overly hyped, it certainly cannot hurt to drink more water. Water is vital for survival and good health. It's estimated that many people aren't getting enough water on a daily basis. Finding a water that you enjoy drinking can help increase your intake, which is always a good thing. The standard water consumption rule of thumb is eight eight-ounce glasses of water per day, although this amount may need to be modified depending on your size and how active you are.
