I bought a jug of distilled water, it tastes amazing! but i was told that it's not for drinking. is this true?

Not likely: Do you know how was the water distilled? What container is it sold in? The chemicals in plastic containers routine leach into water. You are wasting your money on it. Tap water will be just as good.

Not at all true: Hi. No, that's not true. Tap water and most bottled water does have low amounts of electrolytes in it/them. Distilled water has removed virtually all electrolytes and most organics. However, it's fine for drinking. So go ahead and enjoy it! Bon appétit!
