When basing a regimen on achieving a target of purifying and strengthening our body (in its ability to maintain itself), I do not go along with the extremes (which I know I will offend many by my calling them 'crazes').
Did our ancestors, not recent, but tens of thousands of years ago, live a healthy life? No, they did not. But by living as they did, our bodies adapted, so that it might be wiser of us to look back on those modifying mutations, so that we live according to the needs of our body and not according to theories or even gurus.
For this post, I will only offer one example.
Our ancestors had healthy water to drink. It ran in streams or rivers or filled hollows as ponds and lakes. Ours, almost wherever you find such lovely streams, the water is affected by our industry and deliberate pollution (Chemtrails, for instance).
Was the water pure at that time?
No. Not even in the most crystal clear little streams that flowed down from high peaks. It was 'contaminated' by a variety of minerals.
So...how did the bodies of our distant ancestors respond? Did they crave distilled water?
I would argue that our bodies discovered ways to benefit from the 'contamination', filtering the minerals and using them.
How does your distilled water handle that side of evolution? Or do you think we are wiser than nature and life? Or, are you happy to replace those minerals by taking pills? Food does not cover all you will be missing out on.
If you do not find this comment upsetting or offensive, I will not mind adding to it now and then. But not because I want to thrust my opinions on you or anyone else - just in the hope that it gets you thinking for yourself...and if you discard some of my thoughts as being not well-founded, I will not mind, as long as you did examine them honestly.
A kind of aghori approach..You cannot pollute perfection and the mind-body is indeed perfectly equipped to handle some contamination... I get where you're coming from and can respect that we are far more powerful than we can imagine..

Hello my friend! Finally backtracking to this great point. I can see how our bodies have adapted over time. Though I have always found it strange that most of these minerals cannot be absorbed by our bodies and exit as urine. So, we don't actually use them. Unless we drink our urine.
I bought the distiller here in the UK because the tap water smells like chemicals and while it may have some minerals in it, I simply can't drink it. There is a brown sludge in the distiller when it is done boiling all the water and one whiff of it tells me it is a good thing I'm not putting it in my body.
If I had a car I would probably just buy bottled water, but I don't and the 45min walk is hard enough with the shopping bags already ;)
My comment was not meant to stop you from using distilled water entirely. You are only going to be there at most, what, three months?
I was thinking of the water at home, for you and all the family. If you like I will dig up how to built a filter that provides you with clean water - but with the needed minerals.
Glad to see you are looking after yourself.
My computer died on me (blue screen) so I need to get back to finding a solution...we'll chat soon
Oh, when you you start your filming (solar farm)?
