The topic of drinking distilled water versus tap water has raged for many years. Some claim that it is necessary to drink tap water since it contains fluoride (to combat cavities) and the necessary minerals the human body needs. On the other hand,Drinking Distilled Water: Are There Benefits? Articles others argue that drinking distilled water cleanses the body, is void of any contaminants, and is the purest form of water. Once popular only among health circles, distilled water has gained momentum in the general population.

Does drinking distilled water have benefits? And if so, what are they? These are the questions usually asked by someone considering drinking pure water. The process of distilling water involves bring the water to a boil so that it turns into steam. Converting the liquid into a gas removes the contaminants that exist within the water. When the liquid cools from a gas to a liquid, the result is water in its purest form. Bacteria, parasites and other harmful items are safely and efficiently removed. In areas with little to know sanitation regulations, the benefits of drinking distilled water are undeniable.

In areas that have sanitary methods of sanitizing water, distilled water can still offer benefits. For example, it has been theorized that distilled water – devoid of minerals and contaminants – will absorb excess materials not needed in the body, and send them to the kidneys to be flushed. The biggest challenge to the idea of drinking distilled water is that since it does not contain minerals, it provides no benefit to the body. However, the minerals found in regular tap water are so miniscule, that a person would have to drink hundreds of ounces a day for meet the daily requirements. With most nutritional benefits coming from food – such as meat, poultry, vegetables and fruit – water offers little mineral benefit in any case.

Distilled water can also be purchased at grocery and health stores. For some, they choose to purchase a home filtration system and make their own distilled water. On average, this is the most cost-effective way to enjoy distilled water (as compared to purchasing it at a retailer).

As society has become more aware of nutrition and the benefits of a healthy diet, distilled water has gained in popularity. However, its greatest popularity resides in areas that do not purify the water of contaminants. Distilled water can – and will – provide a healthy alternative to unhealthy water sources.
