For those of us who have decided that canned drinks and even fruit juice are not the way forward as far as staying hydrated in the workplace is concerned, there is some pretty good news on the horizon. In fact according to the Mintel 2014 report, bottle water is fast becoming the drink of choice here in the UK. It is no surprise that fizzy pop is not really that good for you, but you may have been surprised to learn exactly how seriously the Government has been forced to take this product in recent times. Sugar Tax Research indicates that diabetes could be rivalling cancer as the country's biggest cause of early death if we don't start to look after ourselves. This means less sugar in our diets and cutting out the myriad of sugary drinks that seems to be on offer in the workplace by way of vending machines. The government are proposing sugar tax to encourage a more responsible attitude amongst the supermarket and soft drink sellers. Isn't it obvious that water is the way to stay hydrated in and out of the workplace! Action on Sugar is just one group who are campaigning like crazy to get this message across and hopefully it will not be too long before all of the UK workplaces start to take a more active involvement in their employee's healthy eating and drinking habits. Premium Product Water is fast becoming the cool and warm drink of choice and let's face it; the competition never really stood a chance. By staying hydrated in the workplace we are equipping our bodies and minds to remain more focused and our cognitive functions will be firing on all cylinders. Whether your employer steps up to the plate by providing water fountains, instant hot water taps or simply has a bottled water cooler on offer, they will be helping every single employee to stay fit and healthy in the workplace. This is surely a no-brainer in terms of ROI because the workforce will be more active and far less likely to lose concentration throughout the day. Okay, we may never see the day when those sugar-ridden soft drinks are shown the workplace door completely but if things continue to shape up the way that they are right now, in a short space of time it will the de factor standard to see a fresh supply of cool drinking water in each and every business here in the UK.
