For short term use (no more than a few days to a week at a time), distilled water can be used as a detoxifier to draw toxins and heavy metals out of the body. This is not to be confused with use during a fasting, but rather used to mildly cleanse. Fasting already causes rapid loss of electrolytes and distilled water would be a dangerous combination. Avoid cooking with distilled water as it can also leach minerals from your food.
Some believe by simply adding minerals back into their water, (alkaline water), they'll be able to counter the negative impacts of long-term consumption. Studies have shown supplementation to help, but cannot fully eliminate thedeficiency and acidic issues.
Ultimately, our water should not betoo acidic or too alkaline, with a pH between 6.5 and 7.5. It should be rich in minerals and free of toxins such as bacteria, viruses, and chemicals like chlorine and fluoride. If you have access to a high-quality spring water, that would be best. Water filtered through reverse osmosis can be used, but minerals will still need to be supplemented with this source. It is also safe to install a good home water filtration system and drink that filtered water. A good system can also be installed to the whole house to remove impurities such as chlorine from the water you bathe in.
