  Your body must regulate ion levels - sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, etc. Drinking pure water in excess will force you to produce urine, and when you take a piss, you’ll lose some of those ions with it. Big, big problem. That’s why you need salt in your diet.

    So if your diet is a bit high in salt, would distilled water help counteract it a bit?

  Yea I think you're fine drinking like a litre of distilled water. Too much of anything will kill you, even regular water.
