is distilled water better drinking water than bottled water?!


Question:
Answers:
It depends on your total consumption of the water. Too much of either will kill you because of water intoxication.

The drinking of distilled water has been both advocated and discouraged for the purported effect of drinking water in its pure form is a 'more powerful solvent' that helps cleanse toxins from the body. Detractors argue that it robs the body of essential minerals in this way and also deprives it of minerals normally acquired from drinking water. There is no evidence to support either view and neither argument has a sound basis in chemistry or biology.

If you want to avoid most contaminants, it is better to drink distilled water.

Distilled water is an active absorber and when it comes into contact with air, it absorbs carbon dioxide, making it acidic. The more distilled water a person drinks, the higher the body acidity becomes. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, "Distilled water, being essentially mineral-free, is very aggressive, in that it tends to dissolve substances with which it is in contact. Notably, carbon dioxide from the air is rapidly absorbed, making the water acidic and even more aggressive. Many metals are dissolved by distilled water."

distilled water can kill you!
