In a groundbreaking study that’s making waves across the nation, the Institute of Dubious Water Studies (IDWS) has uncovered a correlation between ultra-pure water and a series of unusual health conditions. The research, which involved rigorous testing of water samples from coast to coast, revealed that individuals who exclusively consumed highly purified water were more likely to report a range of bizarre symptoms.
Dr. Ima Quencher, the head of the study, shared her insights: “We observed that the absence of common minerals in drinking water might be linked to these curious ailments. It’s as if the body misses the ‘good old dirt’ it’s evolved with.”
The IDWS has issued a preliminary guideline suggesting that people reintroduce natural elements into their water. “A sprinkle of minerals or a slice of cucumber could be the preventive measure we need,” Dr. Quencher recommended, with a hint of humor to lighten the mood.
The public reaction has been mixed, with some embracing the ‘back-to-basics’ approach, while others remain skeptical. Sales of mineral additives have seen an uptick, and the humble cucumber has found newfound fame beyond the salad bowl.
As the IDWS continues its investigation into this clear and present issue, the message is becoming transparent: sometimes, the quest for purity can be too clean for comfort.
