Oh boy where do I begin ??

First off even if distilled water had the ability to absorb CO2 from the air at worse you’d have Alka-Seltzer or a flat soft-drink.

Acidity is how intense the H+ ions are in the water.

Alkali is how much -OH ions that rein the water.

This guy obviously needs to take a basic chemistry course before posting such mis-information.

Dear Carol Sue,

Again, the water produced is stripped of all mineral content which causes the water to be acidic. I have tested the water from an RO system and have found it to be acidic.

Another thing, reverse osmosis is expensive to operate. It uses alot of water and most of it goes to waste. You see, water is forced through a membrane. Only some can pass through, the rest just goes down the drain.

Hope this helps.

Dear Bob,

What I posted is based on my own experience and learning. I managed to get my health back by drinking Pi Water and I would like to share it with everyone.

Dear Jake,

Thanks for sharing. There is much more to what I wrote. This is just the tip of the iceberg. More to come.

Cheers

What’s your opinion of RO water?

Nonsense! Stop scaring people with false claims.

I have consumed no water except distilled for 20+ years. It is actually healthier than any other water for a variety of reasons.

Here’s a link to an article by Dr. Andrew Weil, a well-known and trustworthy physician. He not only recommends distilled water – it’s what he drinks himself. He debunks the bogus claims made above.

Beware of what you read on the internet. Much of it is nonsense – the above article serving as a perfect example.

While DI water is bad for you, it is not for these reasons. What is actually happening is that the cells in your body will attempt to balance the inside of the cell with the outside of it, in the sense of concentration of substances in the water, such as salt and other minerals. When the cell detects that there is very a very low concentration, it lets in water, and keeps doing this until it bursts. It has nothing to do with toxins.

Vivienne,

I forgot about the shower. Yes, it produces Pi Water, too. It also filters out the chlorine and other heavy metals. Taking a hot shower is really, really bad as you absorb the chlorine and goodness knows what else they put into our water to kill the germs more easily.

I went to KL for a an 8 day course and every time I took a shower, the bathroom smelt like someone has used bleach to clean the floor. Does anyone else have the same experience?
