Sometimes.... NOTHING! Bottled water is often just plain tap water.
Tap water can contain chlorine, lead, pesticides, hormones, drug residue from hospitals throwing old meds down the drain, and who knows what else.
Bottled water that is processed by reverse osmosis creates "dead water", void of essential minerals, is acidic when tested with pH testers, and has a high ORP (Oxygen Reduction Potential), which means that if you drink it you are reducing the oxygen in your body.

∙ 12y agoTap water has lots of bacteria. Though it does have chlorine in it to help kill germs and bacteria, it doesn't get it all and chlorine isn't good for you either!
Bottle water (like Aquafina. I'm not sure if all bottled water purifies their water first) is naturally purified with kind of a machine. It doesn't use any chlorine, etc, to get rid of germs.
Bottled water is tap water, naturally purified (without using chemicals) to get rid of almost all of the germs and bacteria.
Bottle water/Purified water is much healthier and cleaner. Personally I can't stand the taste of Tap water, it's so gross. But purified water is amazing and how it's supposed to be like!
TIP: You can make your own purified water at home. That's what I do. I have a little, tiny machine that connects to my sink and has a little hose-like tube. It goes out the sink into the tub, into the purifier, and then out the little tube into your water jug etc
TIP #2: You can also go to some supermarkets/stores like (some) Walmarts and probably others where you can pay to get purified water with a special thing in it that is healthy for you, etc.

Is bottle water better than tap water?
Depends on what company you're comparing tap water to. But most bottled water companies use filtered water (the same as tap water). In most cases bottled water is not purer than tap water. Note that tap water is not the same everywhere, not are all brands of bottled water the same. But legal requirements for water purity are the same for tap water as for bottled water. In some cases, bottled water actually is tap water, that has simply been taken from the tap and put into bottles.
