As far as I have learned it is not a great thing to drink RO/DI water. It's not gonna kill you or have any significant effect in the short term. But the main reason you should not drink it is because the water is completely pure. When the water hits your digestive track, it can pull out many of the nutrients that your body has taken in from all the food you have ate in the last 24 hours. I think it is probably fine though if you keep up on your multiple vitamins. But I would never ever give it to children, it can cause weakened immune systems and lead to some problems later. basically is the same reason why kids that are raised with clean freaks can have weird allergies!

Just my 2 cents
