We all know that “Lukewarm water is the world’s first and foremost medicine”. We should also learn a lesson from present “ground water crisis” situation. Save every drop of water for future generations. Nature has provided us many resources like water, plants, air, energy, natural gas. It’s our duty to save water otherwise we cannot save ourselves. Let’s talk about lukewarm water and its role in making us healthy both physically and mentally.

Lukewarm Water:

Lukewarm water is that water which is moderately warm. The word lukewarm has been derived from two English words one is Lew which means tepid and other is warm. Thus lukewarm water is that which is neither too hot nor too cold.
