Alright who here's a gamer?
only for my entire life!

started on PC, played a little bit of everything. Went through a Sega Genisis and PlayStation growing up, moved to Xbox 360 in my early 20s. Have been ranked in the top 100 (sometimes top 10, have been as high as 2) in various editions of Madden for the past 5 years or so. Have yet to compete live, never had any desire to. Just like to win :)

The answer of my chemistry teacher. It's bad

The information I have been able to obtain is that our body acts as a huge osmosis device.

While some water particles tend to penetrate into our organs, the water in our body tends to come out of our organs(osmosis(not reversed osmosis), and since the surfaces in contact with the water we drink are designed to let some molecules big as (C₆H₁₂O6) through, then the ions necessarily come to dissolve and get lost via the stomach. (which has absolutely nothing to do with urine).
There are, of course, debates about these facts. But I'm going to tell you that evolution has always made us drink water that was not RO. If you want to believe in companies that hope to sell you bottled water (the idea is the same to sell you an osmosis machine). Feel free, but please do not go around and act like somebody who can actually give you the facts.
Biggest problem with bottled water is the leached chemicals from the plastics in said bottles not the purified water. Pure water is the best thing you can drink for your body period. Fact proven over and over by...science not conjecture. Lots of chemicals leached into our water supplies from farming and other practices...think Flint, MI for a recent reference.

Let’s not even get started on what’s in our food! I’m sure the massive rise in cancer rates over the past few decades are completely unrelated to what we put into our bodies...

personally, I know I take way better care of my fish, and my dog, than I do for myself.

that will only be true for Soft plastic bottles, I use 18 litres blue bottles , those are safe for drinking.
and in some circumstances you might go for the lesser damaging water you have access to.
But no it is not the best thing you can drink for your body.

There's a worse contaminated water in NJ it's just not making national news

Maybe we should just stick to flying simulators instead of talking water! Love flight Sims from helicopters to jets! Night landings on aircraft carriers are able to make me sweat!
