Remember making a cloud in a bottle in science class? That’s basically distillation. You boil water, catch the steam, and let it condense back into pure liquid. Microplastics? They stay behind because they’re too heavy to fly.
You can buy a countertop distiller (looks like a retro coffee maker) for about $100–200. It’s slow—it takes a few hours to make a gallon—but the water comes out pristine.
Downside: It also removes healthy minerals, so you might want to add a pinch of salt or take a mineral supplement. Think of it as a spa day for your water, but you’re the one waiting impatiently for the “massage” to finish.
