Toxic Dirt Accumulates: Are You Drinking From the Same Water Bottle Daily?

• Using the same water bottle for extended periods without proper cleaning can lead to the accumulation of bacteria, viruses, and fungi.
• Even clean water can become contaminated in a dirty bottle, potentially causing stomach pain, vomiting, diarrhea, or bloating.
• Ayurveda emphasizes pure water for health, as impure water can imbalance doshas, weaken digestion, and reduce immunity.
• Experts recommend changing plastic bottles every 6-12 months, or immediately if they smell bad, stain, or scratch.
• Stainless steel and glass bottles are safer alternatives to plastic, as they are less prone to bacterial growth and keep water fresh longer.
