Doctors advise to drink more water during extreme heat. Therefore, the number of people who carry water in bottles while going to the office is on the rise. However, it is very dangerous for health if water is carried in plastic bottles.
Drinking water from plastic bottles regularly is harmful to the body. Most of the plastic bottles are made from a material called polyethylene terephthalate (PET). PET contains harmful chemicals such as bisphenol. If it gets into drinking water, it can cause various health problems, including hormonal changes, reproductive problems and cancer. Along with this, microplastics in plastic bottles will also enter the body.
Along with health problems, plastic bottles are also very harmful to the environment. People buying bottled water and throwing it away after use do not remember this. It is safe to carry water in glass, steel and copper bottles.
