How can Good Hydration Help You During the Working Day?
Hydration is extremely important to ensure that your body and mind is in good working order. In order to have the best, most productive working day possible, you need to be well hydrated.
Especially, seeing as we now spend on average about 13 years at work throughout our lifetimes, it is ever more crucial to keep hydration levels high to guarantee that you are feeling and performing your best while at work.
At ZeroWater, we want to detail the importance of staying hydrated at work and the effects a lack of hydration can have on work productivity as well as mental performance:
- Dehydration is a wide spread issue, as shown by a survey carried out by the Natural Hydration Council of 300 UK General Practitioners. This survey found that 1 in 5 GP consultations were down to tiredness and fatigue and 1 in 10 of those were thought to be linked to dehydration.
- As little as 2% dehydration can influence one’s mood, lead to fatigue and considerably reduce alertness. One study of 25 women showed that dehydration (-1.36% loss of body mass) led to poor mood, reduced concentration, increased the frequency of headaches and a tendency to find tasks harder.
- Dehydration can also lead to short-term memory and the inability to process visual information properly.
- At 4%, reaction times can be slowed by 23%. In many work environments, this is not only unproductive but can even be dangerous.
- Studies have shown that those that drink water during tests achieve significantly better grades than those who do not.
So what are the Benefits of Being Well-hydrated at Work?
- Being well-hydrated improves sleep quality, and mood, so hydration can help to improve your mental health. This means you will feel generally happier at work through successful hydration.
- Hydration also boosts cognition which means you will be more mentally able to tackle tricky tasks and challenges while at work.
- Hydration makes you feel more energised and more focused. By feeling more clear headed and sharp through hydration, your productivity will consequently improve. This is beneficial as you will feel personal satisfaction at your increased achievements and productivity as well as ensuring your company/business is even more successful.

Why should I Invest in a ZeroWater Portable Water Filter Bottle?
At ZeroWater we have created the most advanced, affordable and portable water filters on the market! All to make sure that you can be your best self while in your workplace.
Our 5 stage filter system is guaranteed to outperform any other simplistic 2 stage filter on the market such as Brita filters.
2 stage filters only contain Activated Carbon and Ion Exchange Resin, while our filters contain 3 other stages (a Coarse Filter Screen, a Foam Distributor and a Ultra-fine screen & non-woven membrane layers). This means that these 2 stage filters only remove around half of all the dissolved solids in your water and therefore the taste will not be as pure as what ZeroWater filters can provide. You can read our previous article for a detailed explanation on how our Premium 5 Stage Ion Exchange water filters work here!
When tested in accordance with the NSF’s protocol based on a 40 gallon filtration (double the rated usage), ZeroWater reduces 97% of Lead and 99.9% of Chromium from tap water. They are also third party tested to reduce 96% of Mercury, 93% of Arsenic and 99% of Copper, among many other contaminants!
