The European Food Safety Authority keeps reminding us we should drink more water and with good reason. Drinking water not only helps metabolism, mental health and recovery but is also great for your skin. The recommended daily consumption is 2.5 litres of water for men and 2.0 litres for women with the majority of this coming from pure water. However, the majority of us fail to drink half this much.

All is not lost, we've come up with 6 water bottles that will help you increase your health and fitness - keeping you hydrated throughout the day, without even thinking about it.

Bobble Bottle £9.99 

Made from plastic, this isn't the most eco-friendly choice, however it does have sleek looks and if you're worried about any nasties in your tap water, the included carbon filter removes them. It's recommended that you buy a new carbon filter after 300 refills. Hand wash only.

Hidrate Spark Smart Water Bottle $54.95 

This ingenious smart water bottle was funded by kickstarter backers and has just come to fruition.

A simple and yet effective way to monitor your daily intake.
