    That is a lot of words to say distilled water doesn’t affect your body in any significant way.

    It also doesn’t strip you of minerals, that’s not how the body works, please provide a source lmfao. Distilled water doesn’t pull minerals out of your body, that’s just plain false. Argue whatever adjacent point you want, but this is just plain fucking false. You’re using incorrect information that’s been debunked. God fucking lmfao.

      Yes exactly glad you get it. Some people want to actually understand why something isn’t true instead of believing the first source that says so.

        …. You still don’t get it do you.

        Provide a source that says distilled water strips you body of minerals, that’s outdated and incorrect information that’s been debunked. The body doesn’t work that way.

        So please provide a source, I need another laugh this morning. You’re the fifth person now who’s arguing and won’t be able to provide a source.

          Urine contains salt, always, even when in a state of hyponatremia: https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/sodium-excretion (scroll down to the kidney disease paper, it wont show any of the text on the direct link, insert obligatory hate on academic publishers)

          I hope you don’t need a source for distilled water not containing salt or water needing to be excreted or for sweat (the other way water leaves your body) containing salt, I already spent way too much time on this because sourcing on mobile is a pain.

          And yes, <10mmol/l isn’t a lot. That’s <500mg (and how low it can go precisely idk, couldn’t find that, but likely much lower, given that the <10mmol figure is a threshold for diagnosis of kidney issues) You replenish that through food, easily (esp these days where sodium intake is, if anything, very high). That’s the whole point. Barring very extreme situations, healthy kidneys will regulate your sodium levels just fine.

            You are arguing with the wrong person then mate, that’s what I’ve said lmfao.

            Urine always contains salt, so distilled water isn’t a factor. Yeesh buddy. Your body will get minerals and electrolytes from the food and other stuff you ingest.

            Sure if you negligently put yourself in a situation and don’t eat any food, even tap water won’t be enough. So how is distilled water a factor…? Please provide a source for THIS, because your other crap is pedantism, and incorrectly too I hope you notice now with these additional data points you seem to not know about… somehow….
