Default Restaurants Advertise Distilled Water

Would you want to start seeing that?
restaurants advertising that they distill their own water on location?

Distilled water is very reactive, which means it will draw any type of metal or water soluble substance into it, if it comes into contact with it.

If you put it into a metal pitcher, it will suck up that metal. If it is in a plastic cup, it will draw out any chemical that can leach into it. When you drink it, the distilled water will suck up minerals out of your body. You get the idea.

Realistically, if you only occasionally eat in a restaurant, it is not going to matter anyway. But drinking distilled water as a regular habit is not good idea unless you are getting lots of important minerals other ways, and you can afford to lose some.

would you rather drink tap or distilled water?

speaking of distilled water's ability to absorb....
would it not absorb toxins in your body more easily? and help them to flush out?

If it is clean well water that is unconditioned, I would rather drink the well water. If it is chlorinated, fluoridated city water then I would probably opt for the distilled.

Whatever is water soluble will absorb into the distilled water, so it depends on what it contacts.

I'm going to say 99% of the restaurants out there have the latter, chlorinated, fluoridated city water.

I'd take the distilled water too.
Personally, I think that'd be a selling point.
My kids drink water or juice when they goto a restaurant....usually water.
