February 2011, Singapore – According to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) concepts, the body reacts when the yin and yang (hot/cold) balance is disturbed. “Heatiness” therefore may cause pimple breakouts, discomfort in the throat, pungent breath or lack of appetite. “Heatiness” stems from multiple factors such as the food we consume (Durian, spicy or fried food), insufficient water intake, our lifestyle choices (smoking and alcohol) and lack of sleep. Emotions could also push your body heat up and upset your well being when you are angry, anxious or nervous.
Most of us in Singapore experience the love for spicy and fried food and also lead a hectic and highly stressful life, resulting in lack of sleep.
Cooling Water pioneer Wen Ken Group recently launched their latest product, Cool Rhino. Using WenKen’s advanced water processing technology, Cool Rhino was produced to address the young active Singaporeans, who are often on the “heaty” side of life. The bottled water actually looks quite cool compared to some of the other brands. The distinctive, tastefully plastic bottle actually resembles glass and it’s design was awarded the Malaysian Good Design Awards in 2007.
What’s inside Cool Rhino?
Cool Rhino contains de-ionized water and natural functional minerals such as Gypsum Fibrosum (Calcium Sulphate) and Calcitum, which is “cooling in nature”. Being a healthy beverage, there is no sugar, preservatives, artificial flavourings or colouring. It is also not carbonated and can be consumed by itself, chilled into ice-cubes, exposed long under the sun, or mixed with your favourite drinks. Do not be fulled by the name Cool Rhino. No Rhino parts are used for the drink. So you do not have to worry about Rhinos being poached for the drink.
How does Cool Rhino Work?
It increases membrane and capillary permeability. This in turn increases the flow of body fluids into the body tissues, expelling body heat more efficiently to relieve the “heaty” symptoms such as restlessness, loss of concentration etc. Besides that, it replenish bodily fluids thus relieving symptoms of heatiness like restlessness, red eyes and profuse sweating.
