    supposedly the only downside to drinking distilled water is lack of electrolytes and taste

    I drink predominantly distilled water at home since I have a tabletop distiller. Makes custom mineral water easier to mix up since you’re starting from ~0 total dissolved solids. I’m often too lazy to add the minerals though, and the straight distilled water doesn’t cause any digestive discomfort or anything

    I have prescription fluoride toothpaste so I’m not too worried

      Completely distilled tap water also leeches minerals from your body

        IF you drink too much without complementing the minerals from other sources.
