Distilled water is H2O in one of its purest forms. It’s your usual water but with the minerals and impurities removed.
How does water become distilled? The process almost mimics the natural water cycle, which involves water evaporating and becoming a gas, rising to form clouds, which then cool and condense to rain back down on us. Distillation involves boiling it until steam rises. The vapor is then collected as it cools and condenses. During this process, the minerals and contaminants in the water are removed, leaving only pure water.
It’s not just for drinking. In fact, you’d be surprised at just how many interesting things you can do with it.
Medical instruments: Instruments used during surgeries need to be sterilized. The zero mineral content of distilled water means sterile instruments won’t have any spotting or residue left on them. It also won’t leave deposits on the equipment used to sterilize them. Wounds: Distilled (or sterile) water is also used to clean wounds because of its purity. This helps prevent infection.
Dentistry: Dentists also used distilled water, especially following a tooth extraction or root canal treatment. The water they rinse your mouth with will be sterile as well, washing away existing bacteria. Automobile Care: The cooling system in your car works hard when it’s running. If there are minerals in the water used to top it up, then you could end up with corrosion and build-up in the system. Distilled water has no minerals, so it’s safe for use in your car. Another part of your car that will sometimes need topping up is the battery, but regular tap water won’t cut it. The minerals it contains can harm the battery and prevent it from charging properly. Hydrate your battery using distilled water to prolong its life and keep your car starting.
Cosmetic Care: Almost all the cosmetic products we use contain
water. Water is added to these as a solvent so the ingredients can transfer their benefits to your hair or skin. It also acts to form emulsions in lotions and creams, so they’re easily applied. The water used needs to be free from pollutants, toxins, and microbes, making distilled water an excellent choice. Its purity means no bacteria or contaminants can harm you.
