Water is Essential for Life
We require sufficient amounts of water to maintain our health and vitality. However, to derive the greatest benefits from the water we consume, we should drink “the purest water possible.” Distilled water is the purest form of water available and contains no solids, minerals, or trace elements, has no taste, no bacteria or other contaminants. Less pure water cannot be used by the body as effectively as distilled water because it contains solids, inorganic minerals, bacteria, toxins, and debris that reduce the water’s ability to perform at a peak level. The purer the water, the more our bodies benefit.
