I drink tea at work. The water from the city where I work has so many minerals in it that it produces a huge amount of foam and the water turns black (and tastes kind of sodiumy). For this reason, I bring water from home which is much less hard but still produces a bit of foam and leaves a bit of stain in the cup which builds up if I don't wash it. When I run out of this water I sometimes use a cup or two of distilled water to make a cup. After one or two cups, the stain and residue in the mug is gone. So, the distilled water is obviously dissolving these mineral residues.
Whether this translates into therapeutic action in the body is not clear. Some say that drinking some minerals in water is beneficial, some say that you should drink distilled water so you are only ingesting pure water, and some say that drinking distilled water will deplete the body of minerals. I actually like the idea that Mike recently mentioned, that of drinking distilled water and adding an amount of Concentrace liquid mineral concentrate to it to give it desirable minerals and make it fit to drink, as far as taste is concerned. City water is high in Calciums and possibly Iron, with chlorine and fluoride among other things. Concentrace is high in Magnesium and has other trace minerals in it.

What do people think of the discussions between distilled water and ionized water for drinking? Thanks -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
