Subject: water, filtered, bottled...best mileage?


Has anyone found that one type of water retains better in the body?
It seemed to me when I switched to filtered water, I immediately
gained 2-3 lbs in a week . I went back to tapped (and lost the
weight) but now I realize that the water retention might of been a good
thing for hot summer exercise...any one else had any experience with
their body performing better on one than the other?

I would guess a detailed chemical analysis of each is necessary. Not
that it maters but is the samesource just raw vs filtered or different
sources and it "claims" to be filtered? We all know that bottled
"spring" water is more smoke than reality. Thats's the science side.

OTOH, in 20 years of running I have never heard anyone say anything
about retention. Any chance that one tastes better and you simply drink
more of it?
