Hot tub spas are great additions to a home. They provide entertainment and relaxation; many people also associate the two with eating and drinking. Hot tub owners believe eating and drinking adds to the enjoyment of the experience.
Is it a good idea to eat and drink in your hot tub spa? That question is mostly up to the individual, but here are a few considerations:
- Combining alcohol and bodies of water is never the best of ideas. For many, entertaining and alcohol are closely related, but it is very important to be cautious. Alcohol has an effect on motor functions, and surfaces around hot tubs can be slippery. A spa pad can add traction to the ground and facilitate balance and safety.
- It won't ruin your hot tub if food lands in the water, but sharing a spa with others warrants some consideration of others. It may be best to purchase patio furniture along with an outdoor hot tub and eat off of the tables rather than directly in the spa.
- Staying in the hot tub for long periods can make a person feel hydrated and can lower blood sugar levels. It is a good idea to keep cold drinks on hand as well as whole foods to compensate for any change in body chemistry.
