Does a reverse osmosis system remove minerals I need to be healthy from the drinking water?
Many people express concern that the reverse osmosis process removes “healthy” minerals from water. Indeed, the reverse osmosis process effectively separates water molecules from the other non-water constituents that may be present in water. Water does contain some minerals that can be used in some bodily functions, but at the same time, water may contain constituents that cannot be assimilated well by the body. The main source of minerals should always be from food and a healthy diet, not from drinking water.
