Tet returns with the fresh hopes of early spring — wishes for a new year filled with peace, happiness, and renewed vitality. Among the many greetings exchanged, health is always held in special regard, because it is the foundation that allows each of us to fully enjoy family reunions, sustain positive energy, and move forward with strength and resilience.

In recent years, climate change has been profoundly altering sources of domestic water supply across many parts of the world. Rising sea levels, stronger storms, prolonged droughts, and changing rainfall patterns have led to saltwater intrusion into freshwater sources, particularly in coastal areas. As a result, many communities are increasingly compelled to rely on saline drinking water, characterized by elevated sodium concentrations beyond typical levels.

Tet is not only a time for cleaning the house or preparing festive meals, but also a moment to care for our families from the most essential things. A tidy kitchen, warm home-cooked meals, cups of tea shared with grandparents at the start of the year, and clean drinking water for young children – all of these begin with the water a family uses every day.

With BWT, preparing for Tet doesn’t have to be complicated. Simply ensuring clean, safe, mineral-enriched water can make every moment of togetherness completer and more worry-free.

Compliance with drinking water standards is not determined solely at the treatment plant. From the source to the tap, water continuously interacts with the distribution system, and its quality can change significantly, particularly when pipes have been in service for many years.

Heavy metal contamination is one of the most difficult risks to control in domestic water quality today. The danger lies not in obvious warning signs, but in its silent and invisible nature.

Many heavy metals can exist in water in dissolved form without altering its color, taste, or clarity. Over time, however, they can bioaccumulate in the human body. Long term exposure, even at low concentrations, may lead to serious and lasting health consequences.

Vietnam’s dry season is arriving earlier, with consistently high temperatures from the very beginning of the year. Prolonged hot weather not only affects daily routines but also reshapes how families spend their leisure time—especially those with young children. As a result, swimming pools have become a popular weekend destination for many families.

At the beginning of every new year, many of us set fresh goals for ourselves and our families: eating healthier, exercising more regularly, going to bed earlier, or taking a more proactive approach to health. Yet in reality, many of these resolutions last only a few weeks before gradually fading away as work and daily responsibilities take over. The reason is not a lack of determination. More often, it is because we tend to start with major lifestyle changes while overlooking the most fundamental building blocks of long-term health.

In Vietnamese culture, the saying “eat well-cooked food and drink boiled water” has long been regarded as a guiding principle for good health. However, amid rapid urbanization and increasing environmental pressures, ensuring the quality of water used in cooking is no longer just a traditional habit—it has become an issue of growing concern for international health and scientific organizations.

Boiling water in polypropylene (PP) electric kettles has become a routine practice in countless households. Yet, could this seemingly harmless habit be quietly introducing millions, or even billions, of nanoplastic particles into the body every day?

Professional sports are not merely a contest of technique or strength. They represent a demanding journey of constant training, sustained pressure, and uncompromising physical and mental discipline. Every training session requires full concentration, and every competition pushes the body to its limits both physically and mentally.

In such an environment, strength alone is not enough. Long-term performance depends on the ability to maintain endurance, manage fatigue, and stay well-recovered between training sessions and competitions.
