Sorry, forgot one other point. Distilled water is "dead" and stripped of vital minerals. You will devastate your body by drinking distilled water (unless you purchase MORE stuff to re-mineralize). Minerals will actually be stripped from your bones to balance this acidic water. Get a good filter that removes chlorine and heavy metals from tap water. Also get a filter for your shower. You absorb more chlorine, fluoride, and metals as vapor in the steam during your morning shower then you could drink all day. I drink deep well water that has natural minerals called "crazy water" brand but filtered tap is, in my opinion, the best and cheapest way to go.
