As pure water has no minerals, some says that it is not good for health.

For your information, water is not the main source of minerals for humsn body. Actually the main source of minerals for human body is the food you take every day. Compared with foods like milk, soybean, seaweed etc, water has negligible minerals content.

Furthermore, human body cannot absorb inorganic minerals. Only the plants can absorb inorganic minerals and convert them to organic minerals. Thus, you will get the minerals by eating fruits or vegetables.

Therefore, pure water is not a good water for health because it has no minerals is a fallacy.
