when i was on a ship, the nukes produced DI water. for whatever reason the riser to the O3 level was removed, and we had to carry 5gallon bottles 9 decks up to our RADAR cooling room. We labeled them, "DI WATER DO NOT DRINK." I was told that DI water was so pure that drinking it would dehydrate you because it lacked any minerals which were needed in your body.
Is this true, or are sailors just ignorant? I'm almost certain drinking RO/DI cannot dehydrate you now, since I see it sold as drinking water... heh.
