Hey, psa, friends: If you don’t need distilled water, please don’t buy it. It does not taste good and people need it for medical purposes.

Replying to @ThatPicard @sesmith
Actually distilled water is perfectly fine to drink, exclusively even. There's no *reason* to do it, but it won't hurt you. The thing about the body needing the minerals in water is an urban myth. You get those from food.

It removes electrolytes which is dangerous if you don’t replenish them.

Which you will by eating. Drinking normal water (and nothing else for a while) also removes electrolytes, which is why sports drinks are a thing. My point is that distilled water isn't any worse than regular water. The difference doesn't matter in normal circumstances.
