    I have such a hard time believing the absence of trace minerals in distilled water is dangerous as to be deadly.

    And I’m not talking that bullshit drank 5gallons thru a funnel than took a bath in it outlier, that is entirely unhelpful.

    A normal person drinking 2 liters of distilled water is going to have no serious effect from it. A forkful of spinach has more of those trace minerals than 55gallons of water.

    Imma go ahead and put this in the file with alkaline water and Japanese H²O that got its feelings hurt.

      it causes cells to burst.

      if you have extra cells for bursting then you’ll be fine.

        Yes that is why saline is used to as an IV fluid instead of water. But if you’re not injecting it straight into your blood stream, the osmolarity of the liquid does not matter so drinking distilled water is completely fine.
