A scientific review published in Frontiers in Nutrition (2023) has raised important questions about the long-term health effects of consuming very low-mineral or demineralized water — particularly among children. The paper highlights growing evidence that drinking water lacking essential minerals such as calcium and magnesium may negatively influence cardiovascular development and metabolic health during early life.

In the world of hospitality, every detail matters. From the glass of water served at a restaurant to the softness of bath towels and the clarity of the swimming pool, water quality silently defines a guest’s experience of comfort, cleanliness, and care.

In today’s fast-paced world, “drinking enough water” may sound simple, yet in reality, it’s a habit many people still struggle to do correctly. Drinking too little, at the wrong times, or choosing the wrong type of water can all have a direct impact on your health, energy, and focus.

During a busy workday, you might reach for coffee, milk tea, or a soft drink to stay alert. Yet your body still feels tired, and your mind remains unfocused. Perhaps what you truly need isn’t just to drink more water — but to drink the right kind of water.

A shocking case in Hanoi has revealed that thousands of households were unknowingly drinking tap water sold as Lavie mineral water.

Hanoi’s economic police have dismantled a large-scale counterfeit operation that produced and distributed tens of thousands of fake Lavie bottles filled with tap water to homes and businesses across the city.

pH is not merely a number; it represents the natural balance hidden within every drop of water. Join BWT in exploring the ideal pH level for your body, understanding why water that is too acidic or too alkaline may be harmful, and discovering how we help you maintain a healthy, mineral-rich source of pure hydration.

💧 What Is pH?

pH measures how acidic or alkaline a solution is, on a scale from 0 to 14:

In recent years, various types of functional drinking water such as hydrogen-rich alkaline water and reverse osmosis (RO) purified water, have been widely marketed as “healthy choices.” Alkaline water is often claimed to neutralize acidity, balance body pH, prevent diseases, and even support cancer treatment, while RO water is praised for its ability to eliminate nearly all bacteria, impurities, and heavy metals.

Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the human body, and nearly 99% of it is stored in our bones and teeth. It provides strength, maintains bone density, and helps protect against conditions such as osteoporosis and dental caries. Beyond bone health, calcium also plays crucial roles in muscle contraction, nerve function, blood clotting, and even maintaining a healthy heartbeat. Without sufficient calcium, essential processes in our body—from healing wounds to transmitting nerve signals—cannot function properly.

Clean, safe water is essential to our daily lives – from drinking and cooking to showering, swimming, or industrial use. While chemical disinfection has been widely used, it often comes with side effects such as taste, odor, or harmful by-products. That’s why BWT has developed the Bewades range of UV disinfection systems – delivering hygienic protection using nothing but the natural power of ultraviolet (UV) light.

On September 15th, at the BWT & IQAir showroom in Ho Chi Minh City, we held our first seminar in a series dedicated to “Building a Healthy Home – Addressing Air and Water Quality.” The event drew the attention of architects, interior designers, and homeowners who share the vision of creating safe and healthy living environments for their families.

Bottled water has become an inseparable part of modern life. From compact bottles carried on the go, to office reserves, to a quick purchase at the convenience store, each offers a sense of ease and safety. Its sheer ubiquity has made many people almost entirely dependent on bottled water, rarely questioning its journey, storage conditions, or the hidden risks behind its transparent plastic walls.
