Mineral water commonly contains substances like magnesium, calcium, sodium, and zinc, and, according to recent research, they're actually a pretty effective way to boost your mineral intake. A recent study found that mineral water has some legitimate health benefits

I prefer mineral water, although I can also drink treated tap water occasionally. But I don't drink distilled water.

Tap water is safe and healthy to drink, as long as you use the right water filter at home. ... As for tap water, to be drinkable, it goes through a complex system of filtration and disinfection before reaching your tap. However, even with that system, microplastics and some pathogens can go through.

It all depends on where you live.

Where I live in Italy, one must drink mineral water to avoid damaging one's kidneys.

The Italian hydro systems are antiquated and there is no money to build new systems.

Worse, in some areas of the country water--running through these antiquated pipes--have as much as an 80% runoff, a terrible lose of water.

Dear @Anthony

it is true.

I prefer tap water. It is of good quality.

Botled mineral water is (mostly) not properly stored, so I awoid it.

Dear Helana

Thanks hou for your comments

Tap water can be susceptible to metal pipe contamination. Mineral water is water that is obtained from naturally occurring springs, thought to have health benefits and is bottled at the source of collection. ... Mineral water is also water where minerals are added artificially.

https://www.diffen.com/difference/Mineral_Water_vs_Tap_Water

The answer you give to this question will greatly depend on the part of the world you live in. More than 3000 varieties of bottled mineral water sold worldwide. Tap water is cheaper than mineral or bottled water. In some countries it is not consumed due to fears of contamination.

I prefer to drink mineral water. Clean and potable tap water is difficult to obtain nowadays as a result of poor handling in the treatment plants, and the possible contamination from piping. In the recent time especially in developing countries, most people boiled the tap water before consumption for their health and safety protections.

Clean and unpolluted water tap, or any source of water, mineral water not possible everytime.

I prefer tap water. It is healthier. because it is disinfected and constantly running water.

Mineral water

A long time ago, yes, but we are now in commercialism, I prefer mineral water.

I prefer tap water to drink.

A. Kettab

Prefer to have mineral water.

Tap water is stored in reservoirs and carried into homes and offices through pipes; it is managed by local municipalities.

Tap water is ok to drink. It has undergone the protocol of purification process before it is being distributed by the local water system.

Dear @ Emmanuel

yes, tap water must be potable and meet standards. you are right to drink it

Dear @Nirmala

yes, tap water is stored in tanks, and chlorine is added to it for drinking. you are entirely right to drink it

Dear @Kadriye Oktor

yes, tap water is excellent, because we add chlorine to it to be drinkable. you are right to drink it

I prefer filtered tap water rather than mineral water. However, in some countries, tap water is polluted with many toxic substances and not suitable for drinking, while in other places like Germany, tap water is very pure and can be used for drinking.

Dear All.

Thank you for your very interesting and useful answers. These answers are complementary and bring more to the understanding of water. As you know, water is the source of life. Without good quality water, life becomes impossible. Let's continue to exchange.

I entirely agree with Bayan Khalaf .@

It is best to drink pure water from the tap after it has been treated.

It is a matter of several factors, including some economical and social ones.

If the pipe network is reliable to deliver chemically and biologically stable water, then tap water is normal to drink. However, when the water coming out of the faucet is below standards, even aesthetically (e.g. odor), then people might be given a reason to drink from an alternative source.

In terms of the social (or cultural) factor, some regions are used to drinking mineral water, while keeping the tap water for household purposes (e.g. cooking), which is what I do.

Dear Bayan Khalaf

thank you for your response and comment.

Thank you Dear Peter

Thank you Dear Omar for you answer

Dear@Ghaiath Almustafa

thank you for your response and comment.

Mineral water is good rather than tap water because it has some mineral content.

Thank you Dear Nor Azliza for your comments

many people think mineral water is better than tap water; which may be true, but also false. it depends on the physico-chemical and biological characteristics of each type of water.

Tap water is okay if properly treated. Mineral water is also okay. The most important thing is to drink safe water with some traces of dietary minerals

I prefer groundwater for drink, if pure. Otherwise wise properly treated tap water, if not satisfied from both, then ultimately choice is only RO/UF water.

every year I ask this question to the students, and each time the answer is the same. only a handful of students use tap water at home. in question: consumers do not trust the quality of tap water.

Thank you for your response and comment. there are certain groundwaters, which are better than mineral.

Cher Madani Bessedik

Merci de votre réponse et commentaire. il y a certaines eaux souterraines, qui sont mieux que les minérales.

Dear Attallah Sheat

Choukren djazillen

the state must provide good quality and quantity of water. this water must meet WHO standards.

Mineral water contains essential trace elements for which a deficiency or excess can be dangerous for the body. On the other hand, depending on the level of treatment initially given to tap water, it can be completely devoid of mineral salts. Mineral water is useful to the human body than that which does not have mineral salts.

certainly Mineral water .

Article Natural mineral waters: Chemical characteristics and health effects

Whether it is mineral water or tap water, the important thing for the health of consumers is that the health authorities ensure that the water distributed is free from pathogenic microorganisms, not containing excessive concentrations of salts minerals, be odorless, colorless and tasteless.

Interesting question!follow.

I prefer to drink water than mineral water, while tap water I use it for the dishes. Because tap water contains impurities.

Well depth ground water free from contamination's , has good source of natural mineral. i will suggest take two glass of ground water daily and rest UV filter water.

Mineral water is more preferable, but tap water is also okay. The most important thing is drinking safe water
