March Madness is in the Air

by

Brackets have been completed for March Madness. And for some, brackets have already been busted! Rumor is that during this time there will be many individuals consuming wings, burgers and perhaps ice cold adult beverages. This is all great, but don’t forget to drink your water! Yes, your Fontis Water!

According to ResponsibleDrinking.com, “alcohol acts as a diuretic. This means when your body breaks down alcohol, it removes water from your blood through your urine. That is why it is a good idea to drink water and other non-alcohol drinks along with your alcohol beverage to avoid dehydration. Dehydration contributes to the unpleasant effects of excessive drinking that go along with a ‘hangover.’  To decrease the risk of a hangover, make sure you get in the habit of drinking some water with every drink of an alcohol beverage.”

 

How Much Water Should I drink?

Livestrong.com, recommends drinking “12 glasses of water following a night of consuming alcohol. Do not drink them all at once. Space the glasses out over a 12-hour period. Be careful not to drink too much water because that can cause other serious problems, such as water intoxication.”

As you can see, March Madness can still include great food and alcoholic beverages, just don’t forget your water!

Healthy Employees are Happier Employees

by

It’s important to stay healthy, right? Eating right and exercising can prolong our life and make us feel better overall. However, did you know the healthier you are the happier an employee you are as well?

Manyimage3 companies are recognizing this fact and are making it easier for employees to take a day off. Employees are using these days for doctor’s visit and even to care for a loved one. A great example of this can be found at the Vermont Energy Investment Corp (VEIC), they have created a culture in which its “employees can take a sick day without guilt or fear of termination.” In a recent article the company explained they were founded on the principle that “good employees drive great results. To its founders, that meant fostering a balance between life and work for all of their employees. VEIC employees can count on a number of supports to deal with the health emergencies that are an inevitable part of life.”

Keeping the Balance

A healthy balance of work and personal life can also lead to a healthier employee. Inc.com states the first place to start when it comes to work life balance is by offering employees the chance to work flexible hours. This boosts morale since employees can schedule their work hours around their personal lives.

And did you know approximately one-third of workers report high levels of stress? While this can reduce productivity and increase employee turnover, stress is an extremely costly concern for business owners. For example, it’s been found that “healthcare expenditures are nearly 50% greater for workers who report high levels of stress.” Furthermore, “insurance claims for stress related industrial accidents cost nearly twice as much as non-stress related industrial accidents.”

Fontis Water

What else makes a healthy employee? One who eats and drinks right, and Fontis Water can help employers keep their staff healthy. They do this by offering their employees the healthy choice of water. Our water is pure, natural mountain spring water sourced from our family-owned, deep rock spring in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Georgia. Surrounded by unspoiled national wilderness, our spring water is protected from contamination by industry or agriculture. To learn more about Fontis Water and how we can help your employees live a healthier life, call us today at 678-494-1981.

Seven Drinks to Start Your Year Right

by

Winter is here, and it’s time to mix it up in the mornings with great tasting Fontis coffee products. Here are seven coffee drinks we think will have you begging for a second cup before the first one is finished.

The Coffees:

Let’s startimage1 with the basic cup of coffee … Fontis classic roast! Add your favorite creamer and you are on your way for the day. We carry eight brands of coffee, but many of our customers will only drink Fontis Coffee. Why not try it on your next order?

Not one for hot coffee, how about a Cold-Brewed Coffee? We found this recipe and love the recommendation of several of the coffee brands we can deliver straight to your home or office! The reviews will have you heading for the kitchen to make a cup, because who doesn’t love a new recipe?

Next, let’s talk about a cup of Black Magic Coffee. Hot black coffee mixed with chocolate extract, hazelnut extract and rum extract make this coffee, and who can resist this goodness in the morning?

One more for the cold coffee fanatics. Creamy Iced Vanilla Caramel Coffee! Need we say more? This cooled brewed coffee is combined in the blender with milk, nondairy creamer, caramel topping and ice … blend until smooth. An extra tip, serve in glasses just out of the freezer.

Pumpkin for many is a must-have all year round so here is a recipe for a quick Pumpkin Spice Latte.

Mocha anyone? The person who submitted this recipe had this to say about her coffee drink, “this is a chocolate and coffee-lover’s favorite! Using a home espresso machine, mix espresso, chocolate, and steamed milk–then top with whipped cream.”

And for the weekend, let’s move on to something with a little kick. Mexican Style Coffee  sounds incredible and yes, there might be some tequila involved.

Enjoy! And to have the best coffee delivered to your home or office, call Fontis Water at 678-494-1981.

Seven Ways to Stay Healthy this Winter

by

Winter is upon us, and with the cold weather comes the flu, runny noses, hacking coughs, etc …. You get the point, right? However, there are ways to stay healthy in the cold months and here are seven ways we found that we think can make a difference in your health this winter.

Tips:

  1. Drink more water – During the winter months you might not feel as thirsty due to the temperatures, but it is extremely important to stay hydrated. “Allowing your body to become dehydrated can leave you more vulnerable to getting sick,” says Wendy Wells, N.M.D., a naturopathic physician in Scottsdale, Arizona. And of course we know where you can get the best tasting water!
  2. Change your toothbrush – If you do get a nasty cold or flu, make sure you throw away your old toothbrush and get a new one. Germs can actually hide in a toothbrush, and then you might find yourself sick all over again.
  3. Get your flu shot – An influenza vaccination can reduce the risk of flu illness by 50 to 60% in the general population and can decrease the severity and side effects if you get sick. The government recommends flu shots for everyone ages six months and older.
  4. Use hand sanitizer – During the winter months it might be a good idea to keep sanitizer in your car, in your purse and in your home. The more you clean your hands, the less likely you are to pick up a germ from an object.
  5. Stay fit – This could mean everything from shoveling snow to walking the dog, but keep active in the winter months. Your body is counting on you!
  6. Relax – Our immune system does not function well when we are stressed out. Relax and don’t sweat the small stuff.
  7. Take a daily multi-vitamin – Prevention suggest looking for one with “100% of the recommended daily values of vitamins A, B6, B12, C, and D and the minerals chromium, copper, folic acid, selenium, calcium, and zinc. Take your multi during a meal that contains a bit of fat so you can absorb the nutrients better; a glass of water will help the pill dissolve.
