Re: [APD] Drinking RO Water

[Mike Szilard <szilard at sbcglobal_net>]

Actually, you don't want to give DI/RO water to people who are sick.  
Pedialyte and the equivalent have electrolytes, etc, added for the same 
reason we "reconstitute" our processed water; it's missing salts and 
other elements we need to live.  Drinking DI/RO water when you aren't 
taking in anything else effectively (vomiting, etc) is a quick way to 
throw your body further out of whack.
