What's Really In Your Drinking Water?

Do the SAME thing with spring water and show me the results, you will be suprised.

I drink vapor distilled. Tap water tastes like shit.

i distill my drinking water in a water distiller - 1 gallon at a time - after every boil away - there is a layer of brown smelly gunk at the bottom of the distiller that I need to clean out before distilling a new batch

I have NYC tap water by the way - which is supposed to be one of the best drinking waters in the country

The dude must never cook - he had to look and question how to turn on the stove... Great a real winner here so far.


That residue is called mineral deposit. Chlorine and Fluoride evaporate off with the steam what is left is solids, calcium being the largest contribute.

I live on well water, I can boil a (just one) pot of water and I get a heavy 'ring' of white gunk - heavy mineralization.

From the looks of it this guy is o a water softener (most likely as clueless about that as he is about how to turn on his own stove) which removes far much more of the heavy minerals, leaving a minor bit of salts and some calcium.

I hope you are also drinking lots of gatoraide or similar to replenish the salts and minerals that distilled water strips out of your body.

There are reasons why people drank mineral waters and even bathed in them for health. Minerals dissolved in water (through natural percolation through mineral rich soils) is good for you.

Lithium (a naturally occurring element in the earth's crust) has been found to drastically improve over all psychological wellness. Mineral water sources that have been used as curatives have higher amounts of lithium than other places. Half of the 'curative' properties are mental/emotional improvements due to lithium alone.

We do not gain the same amount of healthy potential taking Lithium Carbonate (a solid) because the body has a difficult time processing solids ,thus passes out most of the lithium it encounters this way.

Calcium and a plethora of other elements and molecules suspended in water have been known to improve over all fitness and health of the body.

the gunk that is left at the bottom of my distiller is NOT white nor mineral deposit - it is brown & smells bad

That's a myth. I get my nutrients through food and my hydration through water.

Radioactive materials, I assume.

Great post.

I know this is true, but any time I drink tap water I get extremely ill. Bedridden with flu like symptoms, strange.

if drinking distilled water is bad for you - then drinking rain water would also be bad for you as rain water is basically distilled

Drinking rain water is like drinking pond scum. Do people really drink this stuff? You realize all the bacteria and pollution you are ingesting?
