By the DB Pirates Temperatures have definitely been on the rise recently with summer nearing its peak.
Food (or water) for thought!
Hong Kong water is safe to drink!
Opting for distilled water can strip your intake of minerals, which may cause electrolyte imbalances, tooth decay and mineral deficiencies.
Purified water can also be acidic and may contain microbes.
With all of this information to hand, the case for ditching plastic bottles is pretty clear to understand.
Refill it for free with filtered water when dining out (you may want to consider giving your server a tip as a kind gesture), and remember to bring it with you again the next day.
DB Pirates is a premier sporting club on Lantau offering professional coaching in rugby, hockey, netball and dragon boating.
Men, women and kids aged four and above are welcome to register for the new season starting in August.
