can you drink RO/DI?

[fkshiu]

Phhhphht, big time urban myth. RO/DI water becomes "regular" water the moment it touches your lips. It's not some kind of vampire water.

You get the vast majority of minerals from the food you eat. A few cups of RO/DI won't kill you. It just tastes bad.

Perhaps if you ingested nothing but gallons of RO/DI for weeks on end you'd have a problem, but your problems would be caused by the fact that you haven't eaten more than the water itself.
