Reverse Osmosis Purified Water

Reverse osmosis is a water purification process. It uses a semipermeable membrane to remove ions, molecules, and larger particles from water. This process results in highly purified water.

Manufacturers use reverse osmosis purified water as a base ingredient in beverages and other food products. It is chosen for its purity and neutral taste, ensuring it does not interfere with the intended flavor of the final product. It is commonly found in bottled water, juices, and other drinks.

In the US, purified water is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. The process removes impurities, and the resulting water is safe for consumption. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated water quality standards. There are no widespread health controversies associated with the consumption of purified water at typical intake levels.
