Long Life

My magnesium source

What can your mineral water do?

With its outstanding magnesium content, Long Life is a true source of strength. Natural magnesium and calcium are highly concentrated and contained in an ideal ratio to one another. While with artificial preparations the important minerals are only dissolved in the stomach and intestines, these are already in the Long Life water. This improves the intake volume and speed. The magnesium counteracts stress and increases performance – ideal for work, school and sport. Long Life from Bad Radkersburg - the natural source of magnesium.

Gold medal
at the Fine Water Summit in Ath

We are pleased to announce that our highly mineralised mineral water "Long Life" was awarded the coveted gold medal in the category "Very High Minerality" at the Fine Water Summit 2023 in Athens. The Fine Water Summit brought together 58 mineral water brands from around the world with over 100 different mineral waters. The waters were evaluated in a blind tasting by a jury of experts consisting of 6 renowned water sommeliers. Long Life convinced by its unique composition with a high concentration of natural magnesium (201 mg/l) *(193mg/L) and calcium (270 mg/l) *(265,5mg/L). These minerals are not only in perfect proportion to each other, but because of their natural solution, they are absorbed more quickly by the body and processed better than artificial preparations. Long Life is therefore not only a true source of strength, but also particularly well tolerated. The award confirms the high quality and incomparable taste of Long Life mineral water.

Magnesium

Magnesium causes better energy utilisation in the muscles and at the same time protects the sugar reserves of the liver. This leads to increased endurance during physical exertion and reduces the risk of muscle cramps.

  • Tasks of magnesium in the body:

  • Magnesium deficiency

Calcium

An adult has about 1 to 1.5 kg of calcium in the body. Most of it in the bones. Calcium components dissolved in the blood must be supplied to the body every day, otherwise deficiency symptoms can occur.

  • Functions of calcium in the body

Chloride

Together with sodium and potassium, chloride is significantly involved in the electrolyte and water balance and, together with sodium, regulates the acid-base balance in addition to blood pressure. Inasmuch as chloride is also a component of the hydrochloric acid in the stomach, the mineral has an important function both in digestion and defending against pathogens. Due to the connection with sodium, chloride in the form of table salt, like sodium, is sufficiently absorbed through food.

    Sodium

    Sodium is contained in all cells and body fluids and is vital for maintaining the water balance due to its osmotic activity. Together with chloride, the mineral regulates blood pressure, acid-base balance and various other functions such as transmitting stimuli in the nervous system. As part of table salt, sodium is ingested in sufficient quantities through food.

    • Roles of sodium in the body

    • The hotly debated topic of sodium

    Potassium

    Potassium is a vital mineral of central importance for regulating water balance in the body. It is instrumental in maintaining acid-base balance and osmotic pressure. Along with sodium and chloride, potassium is one of the most important electrolytes in the body. Most of the mineral is present in cells, especially in the muscles. Potassium is required for regulating blood pressure, muscle contraction and heart function because it plays a central role in transmitting stimuli.

      Lithium

      Lithium is a trace element that has not previously been considered essential because it is not required for vital processes. However, it has been proven that even small amounts of lithium can have a positive effect on mental illnesses such as depression. Side effects can occur in the event of an overdose, but this is not to be expected when ingested through food. A study even showed that small amounts of lithium have a positive effect on life expectancy. The trace element is also credited with contributing to mental balance and increasing mental performance.

        Bicarbonate

        For the balance between acids and bases
        Despite the system that keeps acids and bases in balance in the body, this sensitive system can get out of balance.

        Due to modern nutritional and lifestyle habits, the human organism has to cope with very high amounts of acid, which are caused by the excessive consumption of protein, sugar, fat, coffee and alcohol. With so-called buffer systems, the body ensures that the pH value in body fluids remains constant. These buffering systems can convert or balance an acid or base supply.

        Long Life against heartburn

        University Prof. Dr. F. Scheminzky

        The advantage of the Radkersburger city spring is the low sodium content, which allows a drinking cure even with a low-salt diet. In the gastrointestinal tract, Long Life from the Radkersburg city spring dampens excess formation of gastric acid (heartburn) through its hydrogen carbonate content and has a beneficial effect on inflammatory processes in the mucous membrane through its calcium ions.

        Sustainability

        Through me we save 77 tons of plastic per year!

        Long Life's new PET bottle has been available in stores since May 2019. As an Austrian family business, sustainability is important to us, which is why all new PET bottles from Long Life contain rePET. 25% plastic was also saved with the packaging film and closures, so we are able to save 77 tons of plastic per year in terms of sustainability.

        The EU directives, which will be mandatory from 2025, have already been largely met. However, by the time the guidelines actually come into force, we will clearly exceed them.

        I'm also available in a glass bottle!

        Long Life mineral water also offers maximum drinking pleasure in a glass bottle. The new 0.33l reusable bottle not only looks good, but also underlines the sustainable basic idea of Long Life and the Starzinger beverage group behind it.
