Why is Using Distilled Water for Baby Formula Important to Your Child’s Health?
The U.S. Department of Agriculture recommends boiling the water used to prepare infant formula until your baby is three months old or if you’re unsure about the safety of your water supply.1 For an infant older than three months, caregivers can consult with their pediatrician to determine if water should be boiled when preparing formula. An alternative to boiling water, according to the Environmental Protection Agency, is to find another source of clean water or bottled distilled water can be purchased.2 Nursery® Water is processed by steam distillation for purity with added fluoride and comes in convenient 4L bottles. Consult with your pediatrician or dental professional if you have questions.
