The quality of drinking water is a critical aspect of public health, and recent concerns have been raised about the storage and handling of bottled water.

 According to Prof. Esther Sakyi-Dawson, Associate Professor of Food Science at the University of Ghana, improper storage and handling of bottled water can lead to contamination and the presence of harmful substances.

When bottled water is exposed to direct sunlight or stored for extended periods, there is a risk of leeching and contamination. This can have serious health implications for consumers. Prof. Sakyi-Dawson emphasizes the importance of proper storage and handling of bottled water to prevent contamination.

To ensure the quality of drinking water, experts recommend the following:

 Away from direct sunlight to prevent contamination.

 Manufacturers should consider printing expiration dates or storage instructions on the bottle.

 Consumers should be aware of the importance of proper storage and handling of bottled water.

Prof. Sakyi-Dawson stresses that consumers have a big role to play in building a healthy community by making informed choices about their drinking water. By prioritizing proper storage and handling, consumers can help ensure that their drinking water is safe and pure.

Drinking pure water is essential for our health and well-being. By taking steps to ensure the quality of bottled water, we can protect public health and promote a healthier community.
