Water, no doubt, is everywhere around us. From the great oceans to the smallest of streams, we can find water all over. In conjunction with this, we find different types of water available for drinking right in the grocery store. Sure, the bottles all look the same, but the water inside of them are not equal. Some taste better, and some are better for you. Today, we’re taking one look at a type of water you can buy, distilled water, and comparing that to the qualities of spring water.
First, it would help to compare distilled water to spring water if we know how it is made. Distilled water is made by boiling water, and capturing the condensing steam that is let off. This process allows for any impurities in the water, such as heavy metals, microbes, and pathogens, to be dispelled. However, in this process, the water will also lose some of its natural minerals.
Due to the loss of these minerals, many people find the taste of distilled water to be rather quite stale. Often, it is the minerals and slight impurities that gives water its crisp taste, and the lack thereof has people believing that distilled water is missing something. In addition, the jury is still out on whether or not drinking distilled water is good for your health, as some scientist believes that by drinking spring water, you are actually pulling some of the minerals out of your body.
Distilled water may be up and coming, or even on its way out, but we can assure you that it doesn’t quite compare to the benefits of spring water. Deriving from natural springs, which have filtered water for centuries on end, spring water delivers that fresh taste you know, while combining several minerals essential for daily life.
