However, in the process of removing impurities, bacteria, viruses, and other harmful substances from the water, all nutrients present in it are also removed. Yet it remains water after all, and drinking it does no harm to our bodies. Many people think that since purified water is so pure, it contains no nutrients at all. In fact, whether there are nutrients in water is secondary, as over 95% of the nutrients our bodies need are obtained through food; only a very small amount comes from water, and this has no impact on our health. 　　As for mineral water, it refers to water that comes from deep rock layers, remaining unpolluted and free from human interference. Such water is rich in mineral elements, and in some specific regions, it contains a high amount of trace elements that are beneficial to our bodies. For example, \"strontium-rich water\", which contains plenty of strontium, is very helpful for the development and growth of our bones. 　　However, due to the severe pollution in the modern environment, there are already many high-quality mineral waters and purified waters, which are also subject to special protection; as a result, the cost of obtaining natural mineral water is relatively high.
