 Tap Water

                    The quality of your tap water will depend heavily on where you live. You should be an educated consumer and determine what type of tap water is being delivered to your place of residency to decide if you should be drinking it or not. The tap water in your home could be equivalent to consuming bottled water, or it could be unhealthy and filled with contaminants.

   

                 Some minerals that may be found in tap water are chloride, sulphate, copper, iron, manganese, and zinc. It is important to remember that not all "contaminants" in tap water are harmful. Potassium, magnesium, and calcium, for example, are all beneficial nutrients that may be in your unfiltered tap water.




 Purified Water

                    
                If you live somewhere where the tap water is unfit to drink, you'll likely be relying on purified water. Purified water is water that's been mechanically filtered or processed to remove chemicals and impurities. 
                The purification process removes contaminants including bacteria, chemicals, and toxins from tap water or ground water. Different water purification treatments are designed to remove different impurities from the water. 

  

 Distilled water
                    
             Distilled water is a type of purified water. Distillation is a process where water is boiled and steam-condensed, which leaves solid contaminants behind. You are left with essentially pure water. It will lack naturally-occurring minerals. 
                Drinking distilled water is usually not preferred. It may put individuals at greater risk for nutrient deficiencies since it lacks any minerals that may be beneficial to health.
