A health expert has issued a warning over reusable water bottles, as people raise their concerns over the plastic used in these items.Recently, there has been a surge in people opting for a reusable water bottle, in order to stop wasting single-use plastic bottles from supermarkets.

But the switch to reusable water bottles is not just for environmental reasons, with many focused on health concerns attached to plastic.Experts at Universal Drugstore provide top tips on how to choose the right reusable water bottle to benefit your health.Read on below to find out more.Research has found that using plastic bottles for a prolonged period can have negative effects on our health because BPA and phthalates can seep from the plastic container into the drink.BPA stands for bisphenol A, an industrial chemical that has been used to make certain plastics and resins since the 1950s.

Some research has found that exposure to BPA can have possible harmful effects, such as hormonal changes, and possible links to type 2 diabetes and heart disease.Opt for water bottles that are BPA-free and are made from high-quality materials such as stainless steel, ceramic, and glass.

Stainless steel is long-lasting and won’t rust, hence why many people prefer it to other reusable materials.Ensure you sanitise your reusable bottles to prevent bacteria build-up while extending their lifespan.
