Distilled water

Post by RVN67 »

Anyone know where I can buy distilled water? I've checked all the usual places including pharmacies but to no avail.

I remember I bought some a couple of years ago on st. 286 near the Olympic Stadium. I can't remember which place but there was a whole row of pharmacies there and at least one place had some.

I have been drinking distilled water for the last 25 plus years.. I have one in my house in Australia, one in my other house in Takhmau and one here in PP, all the same brand.
The only time I have seen distilled water in PP was when I saw a motodop loading a 20 L container marked "" Distilled Water "" onto his motorbike and I asked where he got it, and he pointed to a doctor place so I went in and enquired. The doctor there spoke English and said they get it from the condensate from the airconditioning.
When I pointed out that, that is not distilled water, the doctor just said, yes she knows but the people she sells it to don't know.

My advice is buy yourself a water distiller, you can check out mine if you need any more information.

Don’t forget to add some Himalaya pink salt … distilling removes minerals … and minerals are super important to the human engine performance, immune system, cognitive function, etc, etc.

Again I always have to ask,, what minerals are you talking about, the ones I cannot get in eating a variety of healthy food's. Yes a distiller removes all the minerals and everything else but that is exactly what you want if you want pure H2O, otherwise it would be H2O ++

Most people on Western diet are deficient in many nutrients because 70 of food for sale in USA supermarkets are ultra-processed fake food. Adding a good quality salt such as Himalaya rock salt is a great way to boost daily mineral intake.

Also cures/prevents hangovers!
