It will make the water taste different but it will not harm you. Water is absorbed in the body by a natural process called osmosis. Osmosis moves water (not minerals) from a lower concentration (drinking water) to a higher concentration (cells). The minerals do not move only the water moves. In order to determine what filter is best for you then you have to define what you THINK are the negative elements in tap water. Minerals: RO removes them most efficiently. Chlorine: Carbon filter Virus: RO, or Distillation Giardia: Ultra-filtration Cryptosporidia: Ultra-filtration The removal of minerals is a good thing, regardless of what psuedoscientists tell you. The removal of chlorine can be a bad thing; as chlorine prevents bacteria growth in the water. If you are talking about unhealthy minerals such as radioactive materials then an RO IS the best solution. I would recommend an ultra-filter if you want to leave the minerals and take out the potential harmful stuff. I don't know if these guys are any good but they have an interesting system..."Watersafety Systems"<br><b>References : </b><br> Drinking water without minerals is NOT bad for the body.

Giardia: Ultra-filtration
Cryptosporidia: Ultra-filtration

As far as I know the RO system is the best, but there are many different grades of it, some that even add goldand silver back into the water<br><b>References : </b><br> No to the best of my knowledge, reverse osmosis does not take out all of the good minerals, but the distallation process does.
