 The quotation I gave is about "low mineral water", not "natural mineral water"

Has your mate ever seen a case of an individual suffering from some illness related to mineral deficiency related to drinking distilled water?

I am aware that some sources advise against drinking distilled water, but I am hoping for more solid evidence than mere opinion. 
 You're looking for an end result that can be complicated, but like Barbara O'Neil says, there's a known scientific way to hydrate yourself.

This science is not in question, minerals hell absorption & it's why athletes all have electrolyte drinks. 
 Here's a goat in it's natural habitat going for hydration 👀

 Firstly, for what purpose are you drinking distilled water?  Other than kidney failure, I've never known anyone to die from drinking water.   
 Hydration

As to why distilled, I mentioned this earlier in the thread.
Water in my area is fluoridated & I am also concerned about other contaminants (eg plastics, pharma) 
 You're doing a good job with this, just add Celtic salt 🫂🤙🫡 
 Oh yes, the female hormones donated from the piss of degenerate women whose wombs werewasted upon them and the psych meds urine from the mind controlled are of grave concern.  I have used a Berkey since 2007 but even they are all in on Made in China now.  On the other hand, I did get a terrible bout of giardia from drinking river water.  Dang it!  
 I don’t believe so, likely conjecture. Upon further research it seems there isn’t a negative impact!
