CPPCC members call for good water standards to promote the use of natural mineral water

“According to the survey, 60% of netizens in China lack awareness of healthy drinking water, and 80% of netizens stated that they need to further understand the knowledge of healthy drinking water...” On the 8th, Yuan Xikun and Wu Huan, member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, shouted to the reporter and the relevant departments should formulate the information as soon as possible. The water standard regulates the bottled water market and pays attention to the people's healthy drinking water life. We encourage everyone to improve their health and improve their quality of life by drinking good water after their living standards have improved.

Commissioner Yuan Xikun said that water, as the most basic component of life, should receive more attention. However, in recent years, people have been ignoring the crucial link of healthy drinking water while gradually improving their living standards and attaching greater importance to quality of life.

Committee member Wu Huan said that compared to the level of good water consumption in the West, China is still on the low side for a long time, which is inconsistent with the goal of achieving a “happiness” life. According to statistics, in the West, especially in Europe, the popularity of bottled natural mineral water has basically reached 100%, and per capita daily consumption has reached 50 times that of China.

The National Development and Reform Commission’s Public Nutrition and Development Center is also aware of this problem. After investigating the “China Water and Quality of Life Survey” jointly organized by Sina.com and the Kunshan Mountain Natural Snow Mountain Mineral Water, they found that 60% of netizens are missing. In the knowledge of healthy drinking water, 80% of netizens expressed the need to further understand the knowledge of healthy drinking water, and 90% of netizens stated that they did not have the habit of drinking natural mineral water.

Data and surveys show that there is indeed a lack of awareness and consumerism of the public in China. The reason is that Yuan Xikun and Wu Huan said that poor market supervision is one of the main reasons. At present, there is a mixed baggage market in the domestic bottled water market, in which various concept waters are flooded, and it is difficult for consumers to distinguish between various bottled drinking water products. Differences, but also can not understand the different types of bottled drinking water function.

To this end, they suggested in the proposal that the relevant departments should improve the relevant laws and regulations as soon as possible, clarify the types and functions of various types of water from the legislative or industrial standards, and vigorously promote the use of natural mineral water.
