Distilled water is distilled water and it can have live organisms in it.
If it is steam distilled, heat kills them, but contamination can happen
afterwards after it cools, as cooling reduces the volume of the steam and
sucks in air to replace it.
Vacuum distillation is more efficient and doesn't use much heat.
ALL distilled water in the USA has been Ozonated to kill any organisms
that may have snuck in..
BUT
If making CS doesn't sterilize the water, there's no point in making CS.
BUT again, that may not kill all "sporing" bacterium and virus until they
hatch and they won't hatch in cool water. [Anthrax, for example ]
Omit any doubt by boiling that water.

I live in Europe and I've found two places for distilled water, one is at
the drug store but it's very expensive, something like 10.00 for a liter
and I've also found it at the gas station but it says on the label that
it's not sterile and not for drinking. Can someone please explain what the
difference would be in the two?
