Distilling water involves boiling the water, capturing the steam and condensing that steam into another container which will be the clean water. Then you dump the bad stuff left in the boiler with the concentrated crap out. But it takes immense amounts of energy to boil water, plus if you boil it too fast you might splash droplets of contaminated water into the condenser.

yeah thank you very much I know what distillation is

There's the calcium part below which seems to indicate that distilled water, as is, isn't harmless on the long run

Now regarding "immense amounts of energy" it takes woods to burn, it's not a nuclear bomb
