Tap water and bottled water both come from a water source, but they are not exactly the same. Tap water is regulated by the government and usually contains added fluoride for dental health. Bottled water is regulated by the FDA and tends to be filtered or from a natural source, but it can vary in quality.

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.
