A member asked:
Is boiled water is more clean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Less contaminated: Boiling water will kill living organisms in the water. It will not remove solid and minerals. So boiled water is less contaminated but not clean in other ways. It is one way to allow water to be ingested when there is a risk of infection.
