Alkaline water is less acidic than regular water and is thought to help balance the body’s pH. But it can be expensive and wasteful when sold in plastic bottles. The DYLN bottle’s VitaBead Di user contains magnesium, tourmaline, zinc, and silica. Just 15 to 20 minutes is all you need to change every sip from the DYLN into antioxidant water, plus it works for up to 400 full bottles before you need to change it. (dyln.co)

If you’re into high-tech fitness gadgets but are still in the dark ages when it comes to tracking your water, the STYR Smart Bottle is for you. This stainless steel bottle syncs with certain fitness trackers to monitor and adjust your water-intake goals, while a digital screen on top tracks your progress. (styr.com)

When you’re always on the go, it’s hard to drink quality water all the time. GoPure Pod is the size of your thumb and uses ceramic technology to filter water in any vessel, from a coffee pot to a reusable bottle. Drop it in, and drink up.

What you don’t know about your home water filter may unnerve you. Contaminants such as lead, flouride, and mercury can be present in tap water and pose health risks, and many popular pitchers don’t remove them. Aquagear removes 90% of flouride and up to 70 other common contaminants to ensure that your water is as healthy as can be. (goaquagear.com)
