Is it harmful to the human body to drink water from the RO Reverse osmosis water purification mechanism for a long time?
At present, there is a saying in the society: "RO Reverse osmosis water purifier filters out all the minerals that are beneficial to the human body in the water, and the purified water produced has no minerals. It is not suitable to drink too much, and you will get rickets."
According to E Xueli, a researcher at the Environmental and Health-Related Product Safety Institute of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, this statement seems to have some truth, but after careful analysis, it will be found that the above statement has no scientific basis.
He introduced that the functions of water in the human body are: 1. food digestion, 2. nutrient transport, 3. blood circulation, 4. waste excretion, 5. body temperature regulation. We have never heard of a doctor asking the patient to drink water to supplement nutrition when a person is lacking in nutrients and vitamins.
The nutrients and minerals extracted by the human body in water only account for 1%, and 99% of the nutrients and minerals are obtained from whole grains, fruits and vegetables, chicken, egg and milk, not from water.
For example: molybdenum nourishes the heart muscle of the human body. If you want to obtain enough molybdenum through water, you need to drink 160 tons of water a day, but eating a potato melon and a handful of melon seeds can meet the human body's demand for molybdenum.
For another example, the calcium content of a cup of milk is equal to 1,200 cups of water, the iron content of a catty of beef is equal to 8,300 cups of water, and the vitamin content of a glass of orange juice is equal to 3,200 cups of water; Lack of nutrition, can only be supplemented by food, not by water.
Moreover, the organic minerals in water cannot be directly absorbed by the human body. Only after being absorbed by animals and plants, can the human body absorb them by eating the edible parts of these animals or plants.
