This book played a significant role in me choosing to buy a water distiller. (I was sent a free copy when I bought a juicer, so I sort of stumbled into the idea of buying a distiller by accident.)
It presents some compelling arguments for why distilled water is the best water and why high mineral water can be so bad for you.
Contrary to what some groups and websites claim, the distilled water made by my machine tastes wonderful! Just like you'd expect very pure water to taste. The nonsense about distilled water being 'dead' and tasting 'dead' is pure propaganda which seems to originate from those selling less effective water filters.
This is a short little book, more of a booklet really, and it is also very old, but I'm glad I read it and would recommend it to others.
I'd also highly recommend buying a water distiller to anyone that is ill, or that wants to remain well. They are the best type of water purifier in my opinion. (Although reverse osmosis units can be very nearly as good, as the book explains, if well maintained.)
Every time I look at the large amount of horrible and incredibly nasty and smelly white and brown gunk left on the bottom of my water distiller after a few uses I'm so glad that stuff isn't going into my body anymore. I'm so glad I'm not taking in all that toxic fluoride now as well. That just has to improve your health!
My cats seem to prefer the distilled water as well, and drink more of it.
