Using 350ml Bottled Spring Water as a Sports Drink



Anyone that takes their health seriously understands that drinking a good quality water is vital for optimal health. This is especially true for those that exercise on a regular basis in the hotter and demanding climate we live in. There has been an ongoing debate raging amongst athletes and health professionals in recent years regarding the method of rehydration. There are many people that swear by the performance that they can achieve when using gels and sports drinks. Others, prefer to use water for rehydration and there are excellent ways to do this. Let’s take a closer look at the issue so that you can make an informed decision about which method of hydration to use.

The Hydration Efficiency:
Both water and sports drinks provide hydration, but water offers more in this regard. This is because spring water in a natural product that is pure without any additives. Many sports drinks are actually loaded with added sugar in order to provide additional fuel for the body to work out longer. This may seem like a good idea, but the body will have to work harder to break those added sugars down, and sugar spikes can increase your appetite. Water provides a more comprehensive hydration experience that is purely focused on getting you the hydration you need.

What About Electrolytes?
It is true that sports drinks or as they are sometimes known isotonic drinks is very good at replacing lost electrolytes. Of course, this comes at a premium as sports drinks and gels are expensive when compared to drinking water. Spring water is not as efficient at replacing electrolytes that are lost during exercise, but there is a simple work around for this. 

Many fruits and vegetables are high in electrolytes naturally, but consuming them during a workout could be a problem. This can be resolved by making your own sports drinks, by combining Aussie Natural spring water with fruit or vegetable juice in a 50:50 ratio. This can then be decanted into one of our water bottles and easily used during your workout.
There are occasions, such as endurance events or activities where weight is a consideration, where commercial sports gels or even drinks would be useful. However, for the vast majority of us, drinking water and/or homemade sports drinks will be more than adequate to meet our needs.

Your Need a Bottle Storage Rack for Your Business



A water cooler is a great asset for any home and especially for a business. Consuming regular quantities of fresh, clean, locally sourced filtered water is a great way to promote health and boost productivity. Once you’ve made the decision to use a water cooler, it’s time to find the optimal location for the cooler and the water cooler accessories. This would include a stand for the cooler and cup dispenser at the bare minimum. However, one accessory that many people overlook is a bottle storage rack. Let’s take a closer look at this accessory to understand why you may need one for your home or business.   

Water Bottles: 
Typically, water companies supply their water bottles in either a 15L or a 19L size. At Aussie Natural, we favour the 15L format as it’s easier to manoeuvre for our delivery employees and customers. Although we deliver directly to your door, it’s unlikely that you will want a delivery every day, unless you have a really large business. In this case, it may be a better option to have a water filter installed into your existing plumbing. In most cases, people prefer to have a weekly delivery, and they need to have enough water to last the week. A small or medium business will have to gauge their water usage and eventually a pattern will form.

Storing Water Bottles:
Because of the spout on the water bottles that is inserted into the water cooler, these kinds of bottles don’t stack on top of each other. Attempting to stack them, can damage the bottles and make the area unsafe as they could roll off and injure someone. A 15 litre bottle of water sliding onto a foot or ankle could mean a visit to the hospital for treatment. The only proper way to store water cooler bottles is with a purpose built storage rack.

Storage Rack Benefits: 
A water bottle storage rack will keep your office tidy and free from clutter. Our storage racks can store six bottles of water easily, at two bottles wide at the base and three bottles high. This makes excellent use of the floor space, by only using the dimensions of two bottles. The stand is configured to prevent the rolling of bottles, making it a very safe way to store your water bottles.

At Aussie Natural we supply and rent a wide selection of high quality water products. This includes water coolers and associated water cooler accessories, such as cup dispensers, water bottle covers, and a water dispenser stand. We offer ongoing support for all our rental equipment, and we can deliver bottles of water direct to your door for added convenience. Our sales team is standing by to discuss your water needs in greater detail and to answer any other questions you may have.
