What's the difference between boiled tap water and bottled water? Which kind of water is healthier for human body?
Now, barreled purified water has been widely loved by everyone. However, for many middle-aged and elderly people, their thoughts are more traditional and their health awareness is relatively high. Therefore, they only trust their own tap water and think that their tap water is the healthiest. They never drink bottled water bought outside and dare not drink processed water.

However, some people have different health care concepts: they think that tap water is too primitive and poorly filtered, and bacteria or other heavy metals can easily enter the human body, which will produce subtle toxin accumulation and cause diseases. So these people will choose processed bottled pure water. Both options have their own reasons. Let's compare tap water with processed water.

First of all, tap water

The tap water for our daily life is all taken from natural water sources, and after a series of sterilization and disinfection in the waterworks, it is delivered to every household through pipelines. Generally speaking, as long as the natural water source is clean and pollution-free, the tap water we drink is completely safe and harmless after strict sterilization and filtration procedures in the waterworks. However, tap water must be boiled before drinking.

Some people worry that the scale formed by boiling water in the kettle for years is harmful to health. In fact, this kind of worry is unnecessary. The chemical composition of white scales is mainly calcium carbonate, magnesium hydroxide and other precipitates, and does not contain toxic components. But if the tap water from the faucet is found to have an abnormal smell and color, the water can't be drunk.

Second, the processing water

Processing water mainly refers to some barreled purified water sold outside. Due to special treatment, the trace elements in water will change and taste sweeter, so the price of this water is higher. In addition, there is no difference between treated water and tap water, and the nutrients are the same.

However, this kind of bottled water generally needs to be packed in a water dispenser for easy drinking. If the water dispenser is not disinfected regularly, bacteria will also enter the water through the water dispenser, and people will also cause diseases due to bacteria after drinking. Therefore, we should not be lazy. We should disinfect the domestic drinking fountains regularly to ensure that every drop of water we drink is healthy.

Conclusion: Through this article, I believe everyone has a clearer understanding of tap water and processed water. In fact, there is little difference between tap water and processed water. You can choose what water to drink according to your own preferences. For tap water, the most important thing is to heat and boil, and don't drink abnormal water; For the treated water, the most important thing is that the water dispenser should be disinfected in time. Secondly, we should also pay attention to the amount of drinking water and drink water within a reasonable range. Drinking too much water will also increase the burden on the kidneys and bring negative effects to the body.
