Is mineral water healthier than tap water?

I practically live off mineral water when i'm down the gym but what with all the hype lately about the fact it's bottled and left on shelves going stagnant before it's bought by us...the consumer. Just wondered what your thoughts were on the subject?

I am trying to avoid mineral water in plastic bottles. I prefer water in glass bottles. Plastic bottles can increase the risk of cancer.I am afraid of cancer so I prefer not to take any risks

Is that really true? I'll be steering clear of plastic now

The best water to drink is oxygenated water, the kind that sits on top of a dispenser in the big bottle. Without buying anything, fill a pan full of your tap water and bring to a boil. Let cool and fill your old water bottles with it. Earth friendly and you are drinking distilled water. Oxygenated is the best but distilled is the next best.
