Although minerals in water are not necessary, those who would still like to get minerals for every glass of water can easily add minerals to the batch of distilled water (also works for Reverse Osmosis Water). Adding minerals to Distilled Water and Reverse Osmosis also helps increase the PH of the water, those of you who are still concerned with this myth (but hey, whatever floats your boats). The cost of adding minerals to distill water is less than a penny per glass! By the way, you can add minerals to Any water, not just distilled but also for example Reverse Osmosis. This simple process is called Remineralizing, that is you Remineralize Distilled Water.
Typically, after the water has been distilled, droplets of minerals are added to the batch of water. There are several mixtures of minerals that can be added to the water, some of these mixtures are so good that you can turn your water into “super” water loaded with extra amounts of minerals.
We’d like to reiterate, almost all of the necessary minerals come from food sources, not from water. But, if you’d like to create your own “Super” drink or are just concerned about the myth that no minerals in your water is very bad for you, then distilled water in combination with trace minerals is the perfect drink for you. In fact, if you’re an athlete, Adding Minerals to your Water is much better than drinking those high Carb and sugar infused sports drink. While you can add minerals to any water, why not added to the healthiest type of water that is created by a water Distiller. Water distillers are actually much cheaper than Sports Drinks (for example, look at the Water Distiller, Countertop, White Enamel, Glass Collection)
Some of the most common types of minerals added are Magnesium, Chloride, Sodium, Potassium, Sulfate, Lithium, Boron.
However, a good mix also would also include Calcium, Carbonate, Bromide, Iodine, Rubidium, Scandium, Boron, Phosphorus, Nickel, Manganese, Chromium, Strontium, Cobalt, Zinc, Titanium, Lanthanum, Cerium, Barium, Copper, Iron, Silicon, Yttrium, Molybdenum, Tin, Gallium, Gold, Silver, Cesium, Beryllium, Selenium, Vanadium, Dysprosium, Holmium, Terbium, Praseodymium, Lutetium, Gadolinium, Samarium, Bismuth, Ytterbium, Erbium, Europium, Neodymium, and other minerals found in seawater.
The mixture should not contain any known allergens and be gluten free. It is important that the provider of of the mineral drops or powder is a good quality provider. We’ve also tried some of these trace minerals.
If you use a concentrated amount of minerals additives, more than what it is usually found in untreated water, then you may have possible additional health benefits such as:
Vitamin increase – If you combine mineralized water with vitamins, the body may assimilate the vitamins more effectively. Some vitamins may not assimilate at all within the human body unless the presence of certain minerals are found in the body.
Working out – Drinking concentrated mineralized water after a work out may be almost as effective as drinking the popular electrolyte drinks. It may help increase energy by replacing and balancing soluble minerals in the body fluids.
Plants – Increase growth in plants, as well as less need for continual watering. However, excess sodium in the water may have a negative effect on plants and grass. Check your minerals mixture to determine the amount of sodium present.
Increased pH – Since water has been bombarded with minerals, the result is a much less acidic water, in fact, the water may taste “soft”, a noticeable difference in the flavor of the water. While many people prefer the pure taste of water without Minerals, some are used to concentrations of minerals in their water. If you play around with the amount of minerals added to distilled water or Reverse Osmosis water, you may be able to reproduce the taste of several municipal waters or even different brands of bottled water.
Pets– Sometimes pets, like dogs and cats, unlike humans, may not get the necessary amount of minerals from food. In these cases, it may be better to add minerals to your pets water (although Distilled Water a few days a week may actually improve their health). There are some noticeable benefits you can observe in your pet just by giving them mineral rich water.
