JASMINE TULI is one step way from
being recognised as one of rugby league’s
top volunteers.
The Linwood Keas stalwart (see page 1) is
a finalist in the female volunteer of the year
category at the New Zealand Rugby League awards in Auckland
on Saturday night.
She is the premier squad manager, is a director of the club and
has a lot to do with the junior teams.
Her husband Marsden, aka the ‘Godfather’, tragically died on
the training field during 2015, one game short of his 300th for
the Keas. It was going to be his last premier grade match.
Says Jasmine: “We are a league family and that is all we do. It
is in my blood.”
All the best for Friday.

Coastal pathway consent lodged
• By Sarla Donovan
CONSTRUCTION on the next
stage of the coastal pathway
is likely to start in April, once
the city council gets resource
consent approval from
Environment Canterbury.
The 760m section from Shag
Rock to the Sumner Surf Life
Saving Club is jointly funded by
the city council and the Coastal
Pathway Group.
It is expected to take 12
months to build.
The 4m-wide pathway will

boardwalk with native coastal
planting. It will mostly be at
the same level as Main Rd and
extend towards the seaward side
of the road.

below Peacocks Gallop, with
two separate beach access steps
opposite Deans Head and one

Abusive teens ‘out of control’ at yacht club
• By Sarla Donovan
THE Christchurch Yacht Club
was recently overrun by more
than 100 teenagers, prompting
an emergency meeting.
Club commodore Richard
Ineson said some of the
committee met last week after
crowds of young people using
the club’s pontoon ignored
requests to move out of the
way.
Mr Ineson said the
situation had been “out of
control.”
“We couldn’t even drive our
IRBs with outboards up to the
pontoon there were so many people
in the water and they wouldn’t
get out.”
No matter what he said, the
young people simply “gave . . .
the middle finger” and ignored
him, Mr Ineson said. “They were
really abusive.”
The club’s pontoon in Moncks
Bay has been used by the public
for the past 25 years without any
problems, but hot weather and
school holidays have made it a
popular spot with teenagers this
summer.
Mr Ineson said he was reluctant
to call police because
everyone in the area would have
to have been moved, including
families.
“It was very stressful.”
The club had never had problems
before, said Mr Ineson, but
the influx this summer had been
creating issues.
An external tap on the clubhouse
was vandalised last week
and litter is regularly left strewn
around.
The club has members-only
rights over the area, from the
car park to the slipway but it has
always left it open for the public
to use.
“We want the community to
use it and respect it,” said
former club commodore Jo
Hooker.
She said people needed to be
responsible.
The following day Mr Ineson
closed the area between 9am-
3.30pm for a regatta but said he
had had to police it. “If I wasn’t
there, they would have climbed
the rope and ignored the sign.”
The club has asked the City to
Sumner Community Patrol to
visit because people were staying
well into the evening.
It is also looking at putting
more signage up in the area.
“The only consolation is school
holidays are ending soon so we
hope it won’t be anywhere near
as bad,” said Mr Ineson.

RETURNED: John
Edmonds asked the
city council to put the
‘s’ back into Linwood’s
Edmond St, which was
originally named after
his great-grandfather.
PHOTO: MARTIN
HUNTER
• By Bridget Rutherford
THE ‘S’ will be returned to
a street named after the man
behind a Kiwi kitchen icon
more than a century after it was
mysteriously removed.
Linwood’s Edmond St will be
corrected to Edmonds St after
Christchurch businessman and
philanthropist Thomas John
Edmonds.
He founded Edmonds Sure to
Rise baking powder.
The Linwood-Central-
Heathcote Community Board
approved the change last week.
The street was named after T J
Edmonds in 1878. But somehow
after 1893, it was altered and the
‘s’ was removed for no apparent
reason.
T J Edmonds’ great grandson,
John Edmonds, asked the city
council if the spelling could be
corrected last year.
To do so, the city council
had to consult with the street’s
residents.
One responded saying while
they did not have an issue with
the renaming, they were concerned
it could cause confusion
with mail delivery
and they would
need to change
their address with
organisations such
as the Inland Revenue
Department.
However, city
council staff said
there were no
other streets in
the city with a
similar name, so
there would be no
confusion with mail
delivery.
Staff said while inconvenient,
changing addresses with those
organisations was easier now
because it could be done online.
John Edmonds said he was
“very happy” to hear his greatgrandfather’s
legacy was being
restored.
“It’s a courtesy that’s well warranted
. . . and I’m sure he would
appreciate it as well. He was very
conscious of the future,” he said.
It would cost $500 to install a

Couple’s love for penguins
Woolston
street may
be made
one-way
• By Julia Evans
A SECTION of Woolston’s
Cumnor Tce may become
one-way.
The city council is seeking
feedback on part of the Heathcote
Expressway cycleyway on
Cumnor Tce between Garlands
Rd and Marshall St.
At a meeting last year, the city
council infrastructure transport
and environment committee
agreed that an option for
increasing the width of the
cycleway on Cumnor Tce should
be explored, including the option
to convert it to a one-way
street.
As detailed design investigations
progressed, concerns were
raised by staff about the potential
impact on ecological values
along this section of the route, a
city council report said.
Cumnor Tce, between
Maunsell St and Garlands Rd,
is already one-way and north
of Marshall St would remain
two-way.
The public can give feedback
on the proposal via the city
council’s website.
“ALL YOU need is love, and a
penguin,” said the sign on the
front door.
It’s the perfect slogan for the
couple who live inside.
Halswell’s Kristina Schutt and
Thomas Stracke have been looking
after underweight and injured
penguins at their suburban
home for the past eight years.
Their organisation, Christchurch
Penguin Rehabilitation, is
licensed by the Department of
Conservation.
The German couple, who also
work part-time as intensive care
nurses at Christchurch Hospital,
fell in love with penguins after
seeing the birds at Oamaru when
they visited New Zealand in the
1990s.
The current penguin breeding
season, which runs from
December-May, is their busiest
yet with a peak of up to 14
penguins in their care at one
time.
Their current charges are all
white-flippered penguins, except
one very precious yellow-eyed
penguin chick that is covered in
a downy, brown coat.
It has been named Fluffy and
was brought in underweight
from Shell Bay, Banks Peninsula.
The yellow-eyed chick is one
of only three hatched on Banks
Peninsula this season and the

only one known to have survived.
Although Fluffy is still on
medication for an infection, the
chick is moving around and will
hopefully be able to return to
the wild after a couple of months
with Christchurch Penguin
Rehabilitation.
“We’re doing everything possible
for this little guy,” Ms Schutt
said.
Most of the birds are brought
in by members of the public who
come across them around the
coast, or they are found by city
council or DOC rangers.
At first, the chicks are given
syringes filled with clear fluids
to rehydrate them before they

move on to a grey paste that
Mr Stracke described as a “fish
smoothie” for a few days. Then
they are fed small salmon.
Ms Schutt said warmer sea
temperatures are making life
difficult for penguin chicks this
year. They find it harder to feed
because the fish tend to stay in
deeper waters where it is cooler
making them harder for juveniles
to catch.
She and Mr Stracke are handfeeding
two white-flippered
penguins which couldn’t survive
in the wild when they arrived.
They are also looking after an
adult white-flippered penguin
with a deep seal bite on its back.
It needed surgery at Hornby
Veterinary Centre.
City council ranger project
manager Andrew Crossland said
the city is lucky to have such
skilled and dedicated penguin
rehabilitators.
“They’re doing a great service
by saving our local penguin species
and returning the birds to
the wild.”
The penguins are given a name
after 48 hours, Mr Stracke said.
Often they name the bird after
the person who brings it in, so
one of their feathered patients is
called Steve.
When the birds have recovered,
they are released as close
as possible to the location where
they were found.
Mr Stracke said it’s satisfying
to see rescued birds set free.
“It’s a good feeling to have done
something.”
He said dog owners should
keep their pets on a leash as loose
dogs can be a threat to penguin
chicks.
•Any penguins found
should be placed in a box
and kept in a cool, quiet
place before calling DOC,
a local veterinary clinic, or
the Christchurch Penguin
Rehabilitation on 967 7733.
People should not try to give
them food or water.

Fight to reopen Kennedys Bush track
Halswell
Community
Project
chairwoman
Chrys Horn
says a lack
of action
at the Kennedys Bush
track is preventing it
from being reopened
KENNEDYS BUSH track is a
paper road line that provides
walking, running and biking
access from Halswell to
Summit Rd.
It also provides access to an
awesome network of tracks
in Ōhinetahi Reserve above
Governors Bay, as well as
Kennedys Bush and east and
west along the Port Hills. It has
been well used for decades.
Since the Port Hills fire, the
track has been closed, with
the city council citing health
and safety concerns. There are
burned trees that could fall over
the track, and the city council
can’t open it until they have
been cleared. The issue is that
there is little sign of them being
cleared and now there are huge
fences top and bottom of the
track. Increasingly, it appears we
may have a landowner who is
trying to stop public access.
Other affected Port Hills
tracks, including Christchurch
Adventure Park, reopened
relatively quickly. Inquiries in
October indicated that the track
would reopen on December
31. Now we are being told
March 31, but this seems very
uncertain.
It would appear that if we
simply accept these changes
without comment, getting this
track reopened could get a
whole lot harder.
I hope I am wrong, but
communities across New
Zealand have lost walking track
access like this because they
haven’t chosen to defend it. If
very few people act, it makes it
much easier for landowners to
get away with obstructing the
public.
If you want to make sure our
community gets back access
to Kennedys Bush track, then
contact the city council and/
or your local councillor and let
them know.
Ask for detailed information
and updates. Talk to others
about this, and get them
involved too. Join the Kennedys
Bush track network to keep up
with developments.
Find us on Facebook or
email kbtracknetwork@gmail.
com for more information. It is
more fun and more effective if
we all work together to achieve
this.

HAROLD THOMAS Surgenor,

we will forever be grateful to
him,” he said.
“Now we have dogs that do all
manner of things like searching
out drugs, money, bombs and a
whole range of other uses.”
A retired police sergeant, Mr
Surgenor was one of the first
officers to train a police dog in
New Zealand after he picked up
Axel One from Trentham, Upper
Hutt, in October 1956.
The pup was born on a boat
coming from England and was
selected by Mr Surgenor over one
that was partially trained because
he wanted a fresh dog to work
with.
Another of his colleagues,
Colin Guppy,
of Wellington,
took the
partially
trained dog
to become
the first dog
handler in the
country.
Mr Surgenor
had three dogs
during his
career – Axel
One, Axel
Two and Axel
Three.
But he was
almost denied
his dream job
of becoming a
police officer
when he was
told he was too small to join.
“He had to fill out as a young
person and the police told him
to do some manual work to get
bigger. So he worked in a gold
mine on the West Coast,” Mrs
Surgenor said.
The couple met shortly after
Mr Surgenor had joined the
police in Wellington. They were
due to mark their 63rd wedding
anniversary next month. He
Harold Surgenor
spent time in the King Country
and Wanganui chasing prison
escapees, and was sometimes
away for weeks at a time, Mrs
Surgenor
said. They
moved from
Wanganui
to Ryan St in
1965.
Mr Surgenor
was head of
the police dog
unit which
covered most
of the South
Island.
His first
dog, Axel One,
was buried
at the couple’s
Ryan St
property, Mrs
Surgenor said.
Mr Surgenor
was farewelled
at a service in the Westpark
Chapel, Burnside, which was
attended by about 200 people.
“He was a dedicated and proud
policeman,” Mrs Surgenor
said.
“I was very proud to be his
wife and the letters and emails
detailing how respected he
was and admired in the police
force have been incredible,” she
said.
Opawa cadet goes
into the wild
OPAWA’S Courtney Rae took
part in the inaugural Exercise
Takahe, a week-long adventure
camp in Arthur’s Pass for the
New Zealand Cadet Forces.
NZCF is a youth training
organisation which provides
military-based leadership,
personal development and
adventure training to those aged
13-18.
During the recent exercise,
the cadets went through Cave
Stream, abseiled at Castle Hill
and flew over a river on a flying
fox.
They also treated some
injured patients after a mock
‘boulder accident’, bonded
with their teammates on a low
rope course, floated down the
Waimakariri River and rode
in a Unimog. An unexpected
storm with lightning, thunder,
rain and hail provided a bit of
excitement, but otherwise the
weather was calm and hot.

Women relish challenge
Kathmandu
Coast to Coast
male domination
changing
HISTORICALLY THE Kathmandu Coast
to Coast has been a male dominated race,
but that is definitely changing.
The event is full for the first time in a
decade, with organisers and title sponsor
Kathmandu challenging more females to
take it on, a rallying call that is gaining
some real momentum and having an impact
on the event in a number of ways.
Jess De Bont is a working mum who
has competed in the event and now
throws her energy into running a youth
programme, training a new generation of
multi-sport athletes.
“It’s wonderful to see so many females
stepping up and being involved in Coast
to Coast whether it be in a team, tandem,
support crew role or some other way of
getting behind the event,” she said.
Ms De Bont established the Coast to
Coast Rangers, a programme for disadvantaged
youth in Canterbury
She is one of a growing number of
women who are making their mark on
the event in different ways.
“Our programme is about making the
event accessible to teenagers who would
not have had the opportunity otherwise,”
she said.
“The Kathmandu Coast to Coast is accessible,
achievable and fun, and there’s a
real social element to training and getting
into the outdoors. Kathmandu are all
about making the outdoors accessible to
everyone and the race is the same so it’s a
great fit.”
Ms De Bont says for her east Christchurch
teenagers it has been about getting
outside and exploring the wonderful
backyard that Christchurch and Canterbury
offers, just as much as it has been
about training.
“They have biked, run and kayaked over
places they never knew existed. Exposing
them to the great outdoors has been an
absolute privilege. They embrace each
week in the Port Hills with enthusiasm
and gratitude,” said Ms De Bont.
This is the third year the Coast to Coast
Rangers have competed in the event with
16-year-old Emmy Slott, competing in the
kayak leg.
Emmy has two fellow Linwood College
team mates competing with her in a twoday,
three person team, with the other
two doing the cycling and running legs,
making the challenge of completing the
243km journey across the South Island
very do-able.
“They will be supported by their friend,
Aleisha, who is keen to see the event from
a support crew role and then compete in
years to come,” said Ms De Bont.
“Emmy has been training hard these
past few months, getting up at 6am for
kayak training more than once a week has
been a challenge in itself.
“For me, it is all about giving these east
Christchurch teenagers opportunities
they perhaps wouldn’t normally have and
taking them to places they haven’t been,
encouraging them to step outside their
comfort zones, which they do on a regular
basis. Some people don’t step outside
their comfort zones all year. Our
teenagers do it each week when I ask
them to participate in various activities,
TRAINING: Jess De Bont with Finn
Pierce who is a part of her
Coast to Coast Rangers group for
youths in Canterbury.
challenges and races. It is inspiring to see.
As a working mum and an athlete myself,
I know all that the multi-tasking busy
mums have to do. Trying to fit in kids
activities, nutritional cooking, training
and working is a juggling act in itself,
but it is a very special thing to be able to
compete and have your children waiting
and cheering so proudly as their mum
crosses the finish line, smiles all round,”
said Ms De Bont.
Kathmandu Coast to Coast full
– women’s race shaping up for
titanic battle
More women competing is highlighted
even further with the women’s World
Championship Longest Day event shaping
up as one to watch this year.
The late entry of two-time champion
and three-time adventure racing world
champion, Sophie Hart, has added some
real spice to an already deep field for the
women’s one-day race. The 34-year-old
Lyttelton GP is a two-time winner of the
women’s one-day event with her last win
coming in 2013. Her first win in 2011 in a
time of 12hr 10min was only 1min
outside the women’s individual record
set by Christchurch’s Andrea Murray in
1997.
The women’s field is the strongest in
years, led by defending champion and
four-time winner Elina Ussher; last year’s
runner-up, South African Robyn Owen,
who was leading the race into the final
bike leg before being overhauled by Ussher;
Christchurch-based German Simone
Maier, who last raced in the event in 2015
when she was second; and Whakatane’s
Corrine O’Donnell, a strong runner who
always makes her presence felt.
Former world champion kayaker and
Olympian Teneal Hatton is another one
to watch in the women’s one-day event.
Hatton was third in November’s ICF
ocean ski world champs in Hong Kong,
racing as the event’s defending world
champion.
Leading Australian multi-sport athlete
Alex Hunt and New Zealander Bobby
Dean loom as men’s defending World
Championship Longest Day champion
Sam Clark’s biggest challenges. Clark
stormed home last year to pass Braden
Currie on the final bike leg and claim
back-to-back wins in the World Championship
longest day event.
Dean has raced for top adventure racing
team Team Bivouac inov-8 and was 11th
in the 2016 Kathmandu Coast to Coast
and fourth last year while Hunt is back for
his third crack at his favourite event and is
aiming to repeat his 2016 podium effort.

Christchurch United
Academy growing
at rapid pace
The Christchurch United Football
Club and its high-performance academy
continues to develop at a rapid pace.
The arrival of high-profile Academy
Director Colin Williamson is another major
step in the development of the academy
based at the world-class Christchurch
Football Centre (CFC) on Yaldhurst Road.
Williamson worked with some of the best
coaches in the Netherlands during his seven
years at professional clubs PSV Eindhoven
and Roda JC. He will be working closely
with the club’s Brazilian Head Coach
Fernando Lambert in developing the other
coaches at Christchurch United.
This year the academy has expanded to
include an U13, two U14 and an U15 squad.
Christchurch United also offers preacademy
programmes from U6 to U12 and
will expand its community programmes
for players from the age of 4 to 17, with
additional pitches at Yaldhurst, as well as
the historical base at Spreydon Domain.
Players can join the community teams
from $119 a season, and still get the
benefit of the professional coaching staff
supporting the volunteer coaches.
The academy and CFC were created
by Christchurch businessman Slava
Meyn in 2014 to provide all-year football
development with top quality coaching.
The academy in 2016 merged with
the Christchurch United and last year
dominated many of the junior leagues.
A staggering 36 players were being picked
for representative teams.

1 in 2 people
deficient in B12
Emerging research has shown as many as 50% of older adults and
as many as 25% of younger adults are deficient in vitamin B12.
Scientists at Rush University Medical
Center found those most deficient
in vitamin B12 to have the smallest
brain mass & the lowest scores on
tests measuring short-term memory,
concentration & brain performance.
Another study showed that older people
with higher levels of B12 in their blood
have bigger, healthier brains & score higher
on cognitive tests than those with lower
levels. Yet another recent landmark study
showed that B12 supplementation slows
the accelerated rate of brain shrinkage
& declining cognitive function. B12 is
essential for energy production, cell
health, regulation of mood & sleep cycles,
nerve health & repair, & prevention of
homocysteine a serious cardiovascular
risk factor that is known to cause damage
& plaque in the blood vessels. It can also
increase the chances of a stroke. Harvard
researchers found
a 34% decrease
risk of vision
loss in a study
of participants
aged 40+ who
supplemented
with B12. Another
study
linked a higher risk of hearing loss in
neW
subjects in their 60’s who were low in B12.
The reason so many people lack B12
appears to be our body’s ability to absorb
it declining with age as the digestive
system becomes less efficient. Anti-reflux
medication & other drugs further reduce
B12 absorption. The good news is B12 in
the form of Methylcobalamin sublingual
tablets that are dissolved in the mouth &
thru bypassing the digestive tract have
been shown to effectively raise B12 levels in
the body.

SENIOR LIVING
Dilo Oil – The Remarkable
Skin Rejuvenator
Until Rachel
Hunter’s popular
TV series “TOUR
OF BEAUTY” Dilo
Oil was relatively
unknown, being one
of the best-kept secrets
of the Pacific Islands. It
may however be the number
one natural beauty oil available
as it possesses powerful natural skin
regeneration and healing properties.
According to ethnobotanist Chris
Kilham, Dilo (pronounced dee-lo)
Oil is a powerful skin regenerator as
it is one of the most effective agents
in promoting the regeneration and
formation of new tissue, thereby
accelerating wound healing and
the growth of healthy skin. Dilo
Oil is super-absorbing and can
penetrate all three layers of the
skin, offering exceptional cell
hydration and regeneration.
As well as this, Dilo Oil has
potent anti-inflammatory,
antimicrobial, antifungal and
antioxidant properties.
Traditionally, Dilo Oil is used to keep the
skin young and youthful and for just about
any skin complaint. Some of the conditions
for which it is considered helpful include
abrasions, cuts and cracks, acne and
acne scars, pimples, blemishes, stretch
marks, wrinkles, blisters, burns (including
chemical and radiation), diabetic sores,
rashes, shaving irritation, dry or scaly skin,
eczema, psoriasis,
dermatitis, herpes
sores (cold-sores),
insect bites and
stings, rheumatism,
pain, sciatica,
shingles, sunburn,
rosacea, athlete’s foot, skin
eruptions, warts, skin ulcers
and sores, nappy rash and almost
any other skin ailment and often with
incredible results.
Many beauty and skincare products
on the market today contain unnatural
ingredients that can be toxic and may
even contribute to disease. Generally
the benefits are exaggerated
and often only temporary or
camouflage. Marshall’s Dilo Oil is
100% pure and certified organic.
It has been cold-pressed from the
Dilo nut and contains absolutely
no additives. Polynesians and
Southeast Asians have revered
Dilo Oil for centuries believing it
to be a sacred gift of nature and
the Gods. Dilo oil stimulates
and supports the skins natural
healing process through the growth of new
healthy skin tissue. I personally believe
it is a remarkable product and highly
recommend it to everyone. A 50ml bottle is
$19.90 and 100ml only $29.90.
Further information is available from
the Natural Health Advisers at Marshall’s
Health & Natural Therapy in New
Brighton. We are always Happy to help!
NATURAL HEALING & BEAUTY OIL
As seen on Rachel Hunter’s Tour of Beauty
Revered for centuries by Polynesians & Southeast Asians for its remarkable
skin anti-aging & healing properties, Dilo oil comes from the nut of the sacred
Dilo tree, “the tree of a thousand virtues”. Dilo oil is often called the beauty oil
as it can penetrate all three layers of the skin offering exceptional cell hydration
& regeneration. It has a unique ability to stimulate the growth of healthy skin
cells & this gives it powerful anti-aging & healing properties that can help
reduce lines, blemishes, scars & damage to the skin. It also possesses
anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antifungal & antioxidant properties.
Dilo Oil Supports
• Anti-aging & skin regeneration, helps reduce lines, blemishes, scars &
stretch marks
• Skin hydration
• Skin repair & growth, helps feed the skin & stimulate healthy new cells
• Wound healing & skin protection from bacteria, viruses & fungus
• Most skin problems, rosacea, pimples, ulcers & sores, acne, psoriasis,
eczema, dermatitis, rashes, blisters, skin eruptions, warts, insect bites &
stings, athlete’s foot, burns, nappy rash etc.
• Joint & muscular pain

Up to 1 in 2 people may have a shrinking brain due to a lack of vitamin B12.
Supplementation of methylcobalamin B12 has been shown to reduce the rate of brain

homocysteine a serious cardiovascular risk factor that can also damage the hearing,
eyesight & affect the mood. B12 is essential for energy, cell health & nerve function.

What’s happening
at Lady Wigram
Retirement Village?
It’s been a busy few years for The
Golden Healthcare Group with their latest
development of Lady Wigram Retirement
Village on Kittyhawk Road. The first villas
were occupied in August 2015 and now 101
villas are completed.
In December, the club house opened
which provides a bowling green, hair
dressing salon, restaurant and bar, billiard
room, movie theatre and library. The Club
House has all the trimmings, including 16
one and two bedrooms Apartments. The
next stage will also include a swimming
pool, gym and a further 14 Apartments.
When speaking with one of their
residents about how he feels about the new
Club house, Mr Havill said “everyone is
so excited about it opening, we have all
been watching it very closely’. Mr Havill is
fascinated as to how the fountain works.
He has lived in the village for the past
few years, enjoying his new life style and
making friends. He has also picked up new
hobbies including learning to play mahjong,
“I love it, I had never played in my life”. Mr
Havill owned his own home for 44 years
and in that time he maintained the house,
painted it, did this... did that. “We don’t
have to do that anymore, this is my place for
the moment. Every villa is different, even
121 Skyhawk Road
though they look the same. But you make it
your own”. One thing Mr Havill likes at this
age is “the gates shut at night, we can get in
but no one else can and that is an additional
sense of security for us”.
Owner John Tooby says “our residents
are very involved in the continuing
development of the village, they share our
pride in making this a great place to live. It’s
a real community and it continues to grow”.
ARE YOU READY
TO DOWNSIZE?
Paying rates for a house that’s
too big? Paying maintenance and
heating costs for space you don’t use?
A move to one of our
architecturally designed villas
at McKenzie Lifestyle Village in
Geraldine will cut those costs.
Three villas are available for
occupation now, priced from
$355,000.

Hydrate to elevate
We all know drinking water is important, but the
majority of us simply don’t drink enough even though
we know it makes us feel great when we do. We look
at the benefits and motivate you to drink more with a
few tips on how to make it just a little more palatable.
With over a quarter of Kiwis consuming
less than two glasses of water a day and only
5% drinking more than the recommended
eight, the message obviously hasn’t hit
home on the importance of hydrating our
body.
A recent survey conducted by
SodaStream found that Cantabrians are
particularly guilty when it comes to their
water intake.
With 82% drinking less than six glasses
of water a day, but with over 85% admitting
they feel healthier when they drink more
water, something needs to be done to
bridge the gap in terms of what we know
to be true and what we’re actually doing
about it.
This same survey revealed that although
41% of us limit how many soft drinks we
consume due to our concerns over sugar
content, the same number of people said
tea or coffee is this their number one drink
of choice.
Some people even believe that the water
consumed in their cup of Joe constitutes
part of their water intake. This is a fallacy.
As caffeine actually dehydrates us, as
does alcohol too, it means we need to
drink even more water to compensate.
Not so surprisingly the reason we don’t
drink nearly enough water is that we
simply forget. Now with apps you can
download direct to your smart phone,
there are no more excuses.
Further studies proved that people who
had a SodaStream machine in their homes
were more likely to drink more water.
In fact, the study showed that people
drank 30% more water.
For those of us who aren’t used
to drinking water like it’s going
out of fashion, there are plenty of ways
to increase the fun factor while still
being healthy.
By simply turning tap water into
sparkling water with a SodaStream
machine and adding a splash of fresh
lemon juice or naturally squeezed fruit
juice, is bound to have a positive impact on
our health and wellbeing.
