Message:: [QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 4979217, member: 27832"]"A lot of support" on the Internet confers... attention. And, apparently, staying power. It does NOT, or at least should not, confer any credibility whatsoever. Think Tide Pods. The "pure water is unfit for human consumption" posts I read seem to start with the claim that it "immediately starts sucking minerals out of your body the moment it enters your mouth". That's true; it's also true of tap water, or bottled water. Where do you think it TAKES those minerals? It takes them right down to your digestive system, where they're immediately reabsorbed if your body needs them, or eventually excreted if you don't need them. As for the guy in the video saying that his tongue hurt the next day: you cannot conclude from that that the deionized water injured the cells of his tongue. I'll leave it as an exercise to figure out why not. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]
