I'm seeing mixed results on deionized water though... https://www.uswatersystems.com/can-you-drink-deionized-water There have been some studies including from the World Health Organization that indicate that drinking deionized water may cause people to urinate more and eliminate more electrolytes from the body. If you're getting enough vitamins and minerals from the foods that you eat each day, however, this is unlikely to be a problem. Deionized water may also have a lower pH than most tap water, but it's typically not highly acidic. Most carbonated sodas, for example, have a very low pH, much lower than DI water. In the short term, drinking deionized water isn't going to cause any immediate health effects for the vast majority of people. There is some small risk that there could be a residual traces of the deionizing resins still in the water, but this is unlikely. In fact, the crew members on submarines drink distilled water regularly, which also has all of the minerals removed, and they appear to experience no long term health effects. https://allfamousbirthday.com/faqs/can-i-drink-deionized-water/#:~:text=While%20it%E2%80%99s%20okay%20to%20drink%20distilled%20water %2C%20you,DI%20water%20may%20not%20protect%20against%20infectious%20diseases While its okay to drink distilled water, you should not drink deionized water. In addition to not supplying minerals, deionized water is corrosive and can cause damage to tooth enamel and soft tissues. Also, deionization does not remove pathogens, so DI water may not protect against infectious diseases. Not sure if the first article is using deionized and distilled interchangeably.

ForsakenHermit 05/02/22 9:34:03 AM #127:	Blue_Thunder posted... http://isciencemag.co.uk/features/fact-of-the-day-1/ Drinking absolutely pure water can kill you. All the water we normally drink from taps, from bottles, from the garden hose contains impurities which affect a property of water called tonicity. This is the ability of a solution to draw or repel water from ajacent solutions when separated by a membrane. Solutions that are hypertonic gain water, while hypotonic solutions lose water. Drinking water, which we usually think of as pure, really contains a whole mess of salts and sugars which make it slightly hypertonic. They also give water its taste. The cytoplasm in the cells of your body also have a tonicity. So, when they are exposed to hypertonic solutions, the cells themselves lose water and shrivel up. When they are in hypotonic solutions, they gain water, swelling up and bursting like a balloon. Absolutely pure water -with no impurities at all is the most hypotonic solution. So, if you drink enough of it, your cells will start absorbing water. This disturbs the balance of electrolytes (electrically conductive ions) in your body. This is most seriously a problem in the brain, where water poisoning can lead to brain damage, coma and even death. My 8th grade science teacher tried that once, said it was the worst tasting water he ever had. --- Beware the fanatic!

Yamaguchi, sent to Hiroshima on business on August 6th, 1945, saw the U.S. drop the first atomic bomb. Miraculously, he survived with burns across his face and arms, but made it home to Nagasaki. Three days later, the second atomic bomb hit, flattening Yamaguchi's home. Because his family was out finding ointments to treat his already existent burns, they were safe in a tunnel and miraculously survived as well. --- There is no good. There is no evil.

indica 05/09/22 4:14:33 AM #141:	The majority of Americans choose dogs over love: Dogs have been known for the longest time as man's best friend, but Americans are increasingly taking that to a new level. A 2017 study from Rover.com conducted over three years found that 54 percent of dog owners are willing to end a relationship if their pup doesn't like their partner. The study also found that 94 percent of dog owners consider their dogs to be a part of their family, and 78 percent include their pups in major family moments. Since one in four people said they bring their cuddly companions on first dates, maybe consider bringing dog treats instead of flowers next time. --- There is no good. There is no evil.

But some crafty North Frisians took action by breeding a pig, known as the Danish Protest Pig, to be red in color, with a large white stripe around its bellythus creating an animal version of the flag. As they technically did not break the law, and because it wouldn't have been feasible to ban the breeding of pigs, the Danes successfully protested Prussia. --- There is no good. There is no evil.
