Is distilled water really bad for you?!


Question:

Is distilled water really bad for you?

I've heard that drinking distilled water can cause your cells to pop, but I've also heard that this is a myth. I prefer distilled water because it's wetter and I think it tastes better.


Answers:
Most of you would agree that drinking unfiltered tap water could be hazardous to your health because of things like parasites, chlorine, fluoride and dioxins. Many health fanatics, however, are often surprised to hear me say that drinking purified water on a regular, daily basis is potentially dangerous.

Food freaks pulling your leg.
But your not very smart to post it here.
water = H2O
Distilled 3 times to be used in the IV you get at the hospital.
It involves boiling the dirty water to steam at 212f and let it condense just like rain but inside the container no chemicals or bugs, no taste, just water.

nope. its not bad
but im sure if you drink it nonstop (like 24323423323 times a day) something might happen...

Drinkin′only distilled water could be dangerous.
There′re no more minerals in the water,so it′s solving the minerals out of your body.Drinkin′ it three days without eating and drinking other stuff,you′ll demineralize and DIE!Sorry,that′s no myth.
Drinkin′it by the side it′s not really healthy,but it′s not dangerous,

Alfred is right. if you drink distilled water every once in a long while, it is ok. distilled water depletes the body of much needed minerals, which over time causes your bones to be brittle and your blood to lack iron, etc.

i suggest the best water anyone can drink is filtered, boiled alkaline water (the kind of filters that split water into its acidic and alkaline components).

No.

If people are so terrified of losing all their body's minerals by drinking it, they should take vitamins along with it.

No it is the best because it has been thru a complete purification process

i dont think the water is bad for you, its the plastic bottle thats bad.
