Is it absolutely necessary to remineralize purified water?

Thanks to reverse osmosis, you drink water that is free of almost all pollutants, but this purification also removes natural minerals. Should they be added?

We'll explain in simple terms.

No, remineralization is not essential

Water is not our main source of minerals.

Most of the calcium, magnesium, potassium and sodium we consume comes from our diet. Drinking purified, non-mineralized water is therefore not harmful to your health, provided you eat a balanced diet.

A varied diet is all you need. Remineralized water is a plus, not a requirement.

Where are these minerals found naturally?

Here's how food covers our needs:

The benefits of remineralized water

Don't worry, if you don't remineralize, the water will remain pure, clean and healthy, but remineralizing means more taste, more comfort and a little health boost.
