What is in your water
"Tap water is treated with a large number of chemicals in order to kill bacteria and other microorganisms. In addition, it may contain other undesirable contaminants like toxic metal salts, hormones and pesticides, or it may become contaminated by chemicals or microbes within pipes (e.g. lead, bacteria, protozoa)."
Distilled Water
"During distillation, the pure H2O is boiled out of its contaminants. ... So, as the water (with its contaminants) is boiled, the pure water turns into steam and is captured and cooled and thus becomes distilled water. This water is water alone with nothing else attached"
Don't believe the fear tactics being spread online about distilled water leaching all of your valuable minerals. Distilled water actually enhances mineral absorption in the body contrary to popular belief.
Organic Minerals vs Inorganic Minerals
There are two types of minerals, organic and inorganic. Humans have a biological affinity towards organic minerals. Most organic minerals for our bodily functions come from plants. Plants convert the inorganic minerals from the soils to a useful organic mineral. If there is not a true organic mineral balance inside the cells of muscle, blood, and bone substructures, there will be issues. The body will began to spasm, twitch and cramp, eventually deteriorating to a full rigor complex or complete even failure.
Tap water introduces a variety of inorganic minerals, which our body has great difficulty absorbing. Their presence is known to cause many degenerative diseases, such as hardening of the arteries, arthritis, kidney stones, gall stones, glaucoma, cataracts, hearing loss, emphysema, diabetes, and obesity.
It comes to no surprise that the body prefers the richest organic minerals instead of inorganic minerals from tap water. Even if human tissue miraculously developed the ability to absorb inorganic minerals from tap water, it would take an enormous amount of tap water to supply the bare minimum of mineral quantities for everyday human functions. We are talking over 7 gallons of water daily just to barely get by.
The Solution
As I previously mentioned, drink distilled water instead. When inorganic minerals are removed from tap water by the process of distillation, the result is remarkable. Distilled water does leach minerals from your body, but ONLY inorganic minerals. Those are the ones we do not want in there anyways. You may want to add organic minerals to your freshly distilled water, however it is not required if you are eating a balanced diet with many plant-based whole foods.
I highly recommend this small, at-home distiller so that you do not have to constantly buy water. Plus you will know for sure that your water was distilled properly since you did it yourself.

I’m so happy that you have been blessed with purity. I wouldn’t expect much else living in beautiful Hawaii.
I hope to one day not have to be concerned about what’s in my water.
We soak up more water from one shower than most people drink in an entire day.
I didn’t mention showers in this post, because the filtration methods are a lot more complex/exspensive, unless using a rain catch system perhaps. However I don’t know much about that technique to be honest.

Yea when I go travel around ... I don't have much choice in terms of water since drinking water out of plastic water bottles is no better.

The purification process of bottle water is triple filtered, thus making it effective for drinking

True ... and there are some water that is so called "natural" instead of being purified.
The concern more so is the plastic components and its effect on water ... especially the bottled waters that have sat around for long time.

You can DEFINTELY taste “old water” when it’s been on the shelf for way too long at the store.

Hey friend nice post here
I suggest that organic and inorganic coagulant such as moringa seeds and alum respectively could serve as water purifier and should be added to our drinking water to make it more effective for drinking.

Great advice! Thanks for adding to an already interesting conversation. There are many methods of having better water than tap water.

Hola.
Beber agua destilado es recomendable para la salud.
En mí país es díficil obtenerla y resulta muy costosa.

Which inorganic products are you referring to?
We absolutely need electrolytes. If you are going to distill your water you then need to supplement with electrolytes especially if you drink a lot of water.

Donny be phased by the opinions of others. Stick to what you know to be true. Others may believe falsities, but that’s does not mean you must succumb to their pressure to do the same.
Stay strong in life and keep doing your best 💪
