Apparently if you like your stools smooth it’s the way to go.As well as other health benefits. [Post edited 15 Nov 11:54]

Boil it in a kettle. You will be living the dream and forever be known as the forums Rod Stewart. |  |

I hate tap water, can’t drink the stuff. Buy bottled water a lot, lovely drop but has to be cold. |  |

A former work chum of mine when in France was shown the source of Evian bottled water. He’d had a bit to drink and needed to go. So he did…. Somehow, I’ve never fancied Evian since. |  | |  |

Agree. Only bottled. My tap water begins cloudy and takes a few seconds to clear. Horrible chlorine-ish taste. I will use it for hot drinks but not cold. Should probably get a water filter. |  |

It's quite notable how much the taste varies from one region to another. I can perfectly understand those who don't like the taste, but mixing it with squash should mask the flavour as another alternative to bottled water. Presumably bottled water should vary in taste depending on where it is from but I haven't particularly noticed that it does. |  |

Thanks to the water cycle, every drop you drink is likely to have been through numerous humans previously! |  |

I bet it looked better than the ‘Peckham Spring’. |  |

Given he was a tad eccentric I wouldn’t have put it past him to munch a bit of uranium to make sure it looked just like Peckham Spring (great episode of OFAH). |  | |  |

Indeed, that is what I was told by my Consultant. More calcium helps prevent the oxalate crystals from forming (in the most common version of kidney stones) . |  |

The mind is a funny thing as I’m drinking hot water and it tastes like tea anyway 😉 |  |

He could solve the problem by boiling the water, then adding cold water from the tap to cool it down |  | |  |

Absolutely right. I'm no Scientist, but would have thought boiling it (evaporating some of the water) would leave the water with a greater number of impurities..?! |  |

It won't do anything really other than heat it up and then cool it down. At most it will kill some germs in the water that you'd deal with naturally anyway. Obviously Benters should crack on if he likes the taste, drinking water generally is good for you (obviously). I wonder whether this has all come from some social media stuff, it's rife with nutrition "experts" talking complete nonsense. I saw one the other day that was something like if you swish water around in the glass a bit it becomes H3O2 (which doesn't exist) and that's good for your hexagonal cells? |  |

No it comes from my Good Lady who was drinking a serious amount of tea a day and was suffering with headaches,since she switched to hot water and much less tea she feels better for it. That or it’s just her age 😳. |  |

I had a few pints of ‘Woodfordes Nog’ the other week on their ‘Monday Club’ offer at just over £2 a pint it would have been silly not to. I have to say it was a blooming decent pint. |  |

Can't stand Linked in, but though not a member of Reddit, I find that surprisingly good for informative discussions on practicalities like the pros & cons of manual v automatic driving in winter + ways of dealing with low ground clearance on standard cars. Bit like here, but with a larger volume of contributors & without the negativity. |  |
