Spring water comes from underground sources that ‘spring’ up as
freshwater bodies. Water sourced from springs no longer passes through a
community water system, and instead goes through a reverse osmosis
treatment process to remove the impurities in the water while retaining
its ‘natural’ quality. Its quality and purity is also ensured by a
certain set of vulnerability perimeters, preventing any cases of
pollution and contamination. Apart from its main benefit of coming from
a fresh source, spring water is considered to be one of the best water
types to drink, providing the body with vital nutrients to get through
the day. Spring water is also a terrific channel for delivering oxygen
throughout the body, hydrating organs, and improving bodily functions.
Mineral water also originates underground from a protected water source,
usually as runoff from mountains and rock formations. The stark
difference? Mineral water flows over rocks, which allows it to
pick up trace minerals unlike spring water. Mineral water is also known
to have 250 minerals per million solids. Mineral water
is generally classified into two types: hard and soft. These
descriptions only refer to how much calcium and magnesium ions have been
dissolved in the water; the more dissolved ions, the more it can be
considered as “harder water.”
