What is Purified vapor-distilled water?

Purified vapor-distilled water is water that has been purified through a distillation process. This involves heating the water to create steam, which is then cooled to return it to a liquid form, removing impurities and minerals in the process.

It is commonly used in bottled water products and various cleaning applications due to its purity. Health-wise, vapor-distilled water lacks minerals found in natural water, which is a point of debate regarding its nutritional value and taste.

On labels, this type of water is often highlighted for its purity, appealing to consumers looking for contaminant-free water options.
