Gene, our water has zero minerals and is so soft and low in pH, it too has 
side effects if not remineralized before drinking as the sole source of 
water. Even the horses need to have electrolytes because they will have leg 
swelling caused by kidney not functioning properly from lack of minerals. But 
it is sure easier to add the minerals than to deal with having too much in 
the water. The little dog we had when she got old suffered from more kidney 
issues, too, but adding the minerals helped her too.
