Re: off topic-distilled water

[Guest guest]

I think the reason that they tell you not to drink distilled water is that

you don't get the minerals that you normally get in natural water. I use a

carbon filter pitcher plus distilled water. From all the junk in my

distiller after making a few gallons, I don't care what minerals I am

missing by drinking distilled water! I'd like to know what the oily stuff

is.

In fact I bought two so I would always have a clean one on hand!

It works great.

I think another trick is to mix it with HOT water.(I use distilled) >>

to mention to me that distilled water should not be used as drinking water.

He never said why and I never asked, because I drink from my filtered water,

but just thought I'd pass it on!
