Some people, in order to save time, pour hot water into the kettle instead of cold, and this is very much in vain.

Doctor of Chemical Sciences, Professor, Head of the Laboratory of the Federal Research Center of Nutrition and Biotechnology Konstantin Eller explained why it is necessary to give up this habit.

The scientist’s opinion is cited by the publication “Arguments and Facts” .

Why you shouldn't pour hot water from the tap into a kettle

As the expert explained, hot tap water is intended for household needs, such as washing dishes and laundry, and not for drinking.

The quality of hot water is simply worse. It is not as purified because it is not drinkable, the professor said.

Why drink hot water that contains some additional substances and minerals? It is better to use cold water, Eller summed up.
