Many cities, such as Toronto where I live, still have lead pipes for drinking water. The levels are extremely low, and they have various additives in the water supply to minimize risk, but the safe level of lead consumption is zero. So yeah, I drink distilled water. It’s also handy to have distilled water around for various uses, such as steam irons.
There are many sources of electrolytes, bananas, our endless array of processed food, salt, etc. I can’t imagine anyone in North America needs to worry about their electrolytes, beyond those that do anyway due to medical issues or due to strenuous physical activity.
Our lackadaisical attitude toward pollutants in our drinking water, especially lead never ceases to amaze me. Though we shouldn’t be dumping such large amounts of a pollutant in our waterways, it is wild to see the traction fluoride gets with the paranoid.
