For Immediate Release - Friday 23rd December 2005

Sydney, Australia:- The 500ml bottles of Water for Travelling contain Australian flower essences which aid with motion sickness, adjusting to different time zones and sleeping patterns. The flower essences do not flavour the water. The water tastes like smooth, fresh spring water. It can be easily drunk at ambient temperatures. The bottles are the perfect amount of water for a 3-4hr watch and can easily fit into a wet weather pocket.

"We trialled the water in the last Gosford to Lord Howe Island race and found it to be incredibly popular and effective." said Martin Chalk one of the directors of Balance Water and a navigator in this year's Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race. Whether you are sitting on the rail or the helm for extended periods, particularly if it's sunny, you dehydrate pretty quickly. "Even if you're not grinding on the one of the big boats, the amount of energy you expend and thirst you develop is exaggerated at sea" said Chalk. "Apart from the obvious hydration and energy benefits, Balance Water for Travelling is also a very easy water to drink if conditions build and appetites drop. Perfect for a bad day in Bass Strait. The Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race is the perfect proving ground for our travelling water."

Balance Water is a new Sydney based company that produces and sells non-flavoured waters with wellbeing properties. They currently have three products: Water for Focus and Concentration, Water for Women and Water for Travelling. All of the products are based on non-flavoured flower essences.
