Drinking pure H2O isn’t good for you. As far as I know it could even be deadly. But what if you had a pill with all the minerals usually dissolved in water and washed it down with a nice big glass of distilled water? Would it be more or less the same as drinking tap water? Or would you need more time to dissolve the minerals? What if you threw the pill into the H2O and stirred?

Or am I missing something entirely? I think someone on Lemmy even explained to me the other day what is so bad about distilled water. But I’m stupid today and forgot.

    I use to make my own and add the minerals back. You’re essentially doing the same thing. It’s been awhile and this may be a rebrand but I think this is what I used https://a.co/d/hKbbL23

    This is how all the top producers make their water really. Like Essentia and smartwater.

            The purpose is to get rid of everything in your tap water. All the nasty shit as well. Not just the minerals. Unfortunately to get rid of the disgusting things as well the minerals have to go to.

            If you’re buying water none of this even matters. You buy distilled for its use case and drinking water for that use case.
