In reply to an old post: Whats in your water?

osuMatt said: "You are really misinformed if you think a low TDS means the water is healthier for you. Purified water/Distillied Water are the worst kind of water anyone can drink, because its water that is NOT IN ITS NATURAL FORM. Ya it kills most of the bacteria and other bad stuff out of it, but it also takes all of the natural minerals and good stuff thats in the water out of it which makes it acidic in your body, and bad for your health. Artesian Water and Spring Water are the best kinds of water to drink, but yes some sources of it don't have great water quality control. Which is why you always should ask for a water analysis report from the water company that you drink. A healthy water is around this requirement: hardness 170 mg/l and TDS 300 mg/ TOTTALY DISOLVED SOLVENTS are the natural minerals the water has in it (calicum, magnesium, silica, others) and also other things that are in the water besides the water. Which is why you should buy your water from a truthful source so you really know what your getting. If you really want to know about why purified water is bad for you heres a site that goes into details about why it is bad for you: [url]http://watershed.net/purified.htm[/url] [url]http://watershed.net/mineral.htm[/url] [url]http://watershed.net/mineral.htm#2[/url] I use to drink purified water, reverse osmosis, filtered water and it never made me feel good. My mouth always felt dry after drinking it, and it made my immune system weak and I would always get sick, because i found out later it was acidic in me. Now that I have changed to artesian water (I drink a local companies artesian water (alpineh20.com and sometimes Ill buy Fiji water fijiwater.com) I have never felt better honestly. There is so many issues of what water is bad for you, but I think its easily agreed that water in its most natural form is best for you. I mean how can you disagee with that. Its what God intended for us to drink. There is no natural source of purified water, because purified water doesn't exist in a natural form. You have to filter natural water to make it purified, but just because they call it purified water doesn't mean its pure or good for you. Find a good natural spring or artesian water source and drink that water for a month, and see how you thrive & feel. Then after that month go back to purified water and you will feel the difference. At least I do. Thanks for listening, Matt"
