Re: my response, which I posted to Traderdrew as well:

By the way, did you go to the website and look at the pics of distilled water vs spring water under darkfield microscope?

I have not visited the specific pictures in question. However, about 3 years ago I stumbled onto the work of Maseru Emoto and I have viewed various of the many photgraphs of crystalized water he has taken with microscopes. He was the first to plant the seed in my mind that water, being (in his words) "one of the most impressionable substances on earth", be it dead or in one of the many precursor (poisoned) stages of death, has a way of absorbing whatever positive and or negative vibes it comes in close proximity to.

Something else you mentioned that perked my interest:

About 2 years ago I noticed many health authorities recommending distilled water for detoxing, so I bought a distiller and started getting into cleansing. Well within 2 months I was worse off than when I started, so I wondered why?

Coincidentally, it was a little over 2 years ago that I - upon following popular "advice from experts and or authorities", had made a concerted effort to drink my weight in water, daily. This was long before I read / studied / learned any of the alleged benefits of distilled water. In other words, I began this effort using more typically available water, either tap water, or commercially available bottled water bought retail. In my case, it did not take me two months to notice the problems that set in from following this particular "advice". Within a week or two, I developed a non-stop headache and pains specifically behind the eyeballs. I mentioned this to some new aquaintenances (the people who had just moved out of the house I was moving into). The wife asked me "hmmm, I've heard of this kind of problem before, are you by chance drinking large amounts of water?". I replied "well, relatively speaking, yes, I have been trying to drink large amounts of water for the past few weeks". I then explained the "your weight in water" theory to her, and she said "yup, I've heard of that theory myself. In fact my husband picked up that theory about 5 years ago, and he nearly killed himself in the process of trying to follow it. The risk is, you can overdo just about anything, even water. In the process, you end up slowly killing yourself by over-hydration. Do yourself a favor, stop trying to force into your body a one-size-fits-all amount of daily water intake, and return to the practice of giving your body something a little more reaosonable and normal when it comes to water. Try to listen to your  body's signals when it try's to inform you that it needs some". I stopped that routine, the headaches and eye pains resolved within the week.
