I drank distilled water exclusively for over 4 years and recently moved to Oregon, where I'm deciding if I'm going to continue with the distilled or some other type of water, like a filtration system. For now it has to be tap water, and then next I can afford the distilled again, or a carbon filter..until I can afford something else that I decide on.
It didn't help with the calcium deposits for a large part while I drank the distilled. Or it seems not to have helped..guess it could take some more years, but gee..I'm 55 now.
My little water experiment is almost concluded with my dog. I did it today, and I'll post the results of his preference tomorrow. It surprised me on what he chose.
