QUÉ SIGNIFICA POTABLE EN INGLÉS

Agua potable

Drinking water

El agua potable o agua potable es suficientemente segura para ser consumida por el ser humano o utilizada con bajo riesgo de daño inmediato oa largo plazo. En la mayoría de los países desarrollados, el agua suministrada a los hogares, el comercio y la industria cumple con los estándares de agua potable, aunque sólo una muy pequeña proporción se consume realmente o se utiliza en la preparación de alimentos. Los usos típicos incluyen lavado del inodoro, lavado y riego del paisaje. La palabra potable vino al inglés del latín tardío potabilis que significa potable. En grandes partes del mundo, los seres humanos tienen acceso inadecuado al agua potable y usan fuentes contaminadas con vectores de enfermedades, patógenos o niveles inaceptables de toxinas o sólidos en suspensión. Beber o usar este agua en la preparación de alimentos conduce a enfermedades agudas y crónicas generalizadas y es una de las principales causas de muerte y miseria en muchos países. La reducción de las enfermedades transmitidas por el agua es una de las principales metas de salud pública en los países en desarrollo. El agua ha sido siempre una bebida importante y que sustenta la vida de los seres humanos y es esencial para la supervivencia de la mayoría de los otros organismos. Excluyendo la grasa, el agua compone aproximadamente el 70% del cuerpo humano en masa.

Drinking water or potable water is water safe enough to be consumed by humans or used with low risk of immediate or long term harm. In most developed countries, the water supplied to households, commerce and industry meets drinking water standards, even though only a very small proportion is actually consumed or used in food preparation. Typical uses include toilet flushing, washing and landscape irrigation. The word potable came into English from the Late Latin potabilis meaning drinkable. Over large parts of the world, humans have inadequate access to potable water and use sources contaminated with disease vectors, pathogens or unacceptable levels of toxins or suspended solids. Drinking or using such water in food preparation leads to widespread acute and chronic illnesses and is a major cause of death and misery in many countries. Reduction of waterborne diseases is a major public health goal in developing countries. Water has always been an important and life-sustaining drink to humans and is essential to the survival of most other organisms. Excluding fat, water composes approximately 70% of the human body by mass.
