What is the difference between distilled water and water sold for babies?



Representatives with Bay-Bay Water today announced that the company will soon be launching 12 and 24-bottle packs of purified distilled water for baby formula in BPA-free and phosphate-free bottles.





 “We’re very excited that purified distilled water for babies will be available in BPA-free bottles,” said Osmay Gonzalez, spokesperson of the company.
“For the best bottled water for babies on the go, we will only use BPA-free and Phosphate-free #1 PETE (Polyethylene Terephthalate) bottles,” highlighted Osmay and went on to add, “our filtered and distilled water is subject to rigorous safety and quality control tests every step of the way, ensuring that you always get the safest, cleanest, purest bottled water for babies.”
Each bottle will be 16.9 ounces, and the 24-bottle pack will have a lower per bottle price than the 12-bottle pack.





“Distilled water is the purest form of drinking water on the planet,” said Osmay before adding, “The purifying process occurs by boiling water into vapor and condensing it back into a liquid form. It is recommended for parents to use distilled water when mixing baby formula and cereals, to avoid an unhealthy intake of minerals. Since life is constantly in motion, our distilled water is designed for easy, on the go use.”





“To ensure we provide you with the best distilled water for baby formula, our quality control checks are extremely thorough,” said Osmay. “Filter inspections and change-outs are on a strict schedule. Ozone levels are checked every hour. Daily and hourly records of ozone levels and filter changes are mandatory.”




Osmay went on to explain that at its production facility, the single service bottles arrive wrapped in cling film. Before the pallets of bottles leave the truck, he said, they are visually inspected to ensure no cross-contamination of any kind has taken place during transport. The pallets are stored in a secure area. Before each bottle is filled, it enters an enclosed chamber to receive a sanitizing ozone rinse. The purified water used to fill the bottles passes through a UV filter. Bottles are capped in the filler station, not sent open to the next stage of production.
As to why anyone should give Bay-Bay Water a try, Osmay said that its distilling process is carefully monitored and far above average.





“First the water is softened, then it passes through a 1-micron filter to screen out any microscopic impurities,” Osmay said. “Only filtered water enters the distiller, and following the distilling process, it is stored in temperature-controlled silos until it is ready for ozone treatment and packaging. Typically, water is purified by one of three processes: reverse osmosis, distillation, and de-ionization. Bay-Bay relies on the distillation process, which involved boiling, condensing, and steaming to provide the purest result.”





First, distilled water alone is not good for consumption; essential minerals are needed in the water for the body or dehydration will occur.
‘Pediatric water’ is [by requirement] at best properly distilled water with the essential minerals the FDA deems required for the human body. This means ‘Pediatric water’ shouldn’t have ANY impurities that could inhibit the best growth and nourishment of the child [and adult] that ingests it. Now, most water is packaged in ‘plastic’ which is not a healthy product for the body and temperature changes allow the plastic to “leach” into the water.
