Water quality
WELL promotes high quality water and improved accessibility.
THE ISSUE
Being dehydrated by just 2% has been shown to impair cognitive performance. The Institute of Medicine recommends that women consume at least 2.7 L (11 cups) and men consume at least 3.7 L (16 cups) of water from foods and beverages each day.
THE SOLUTION
WELL requires the availability of fresh and wholesome foods, limits highly-processed ingredients and supports mindful eating.
THE IMPACT
Research indicates that thirsty individuals who drink water prior to performing a mental task have faster reaction times than those who do not drink water.
