Interesting question. I also have hard water, but I choose not to drink it because I don't care for the taste.


I don't see why the hard water would affect you - usually it has things like calcium, lime and iron in it. Calcium probably helps you lose weight, but I'm not sure about lime.

By the way, my water is also "off the chart". I installed a water softener but that only cuts back on the build-up in my appliances and faucets. I have to pretty much just use elbow-grease to clean anything and get rid of the water stains. It's horrible. The water softener helps some, but doesn't come near doing a good job. I don't drink the water out of my softener because of the salt content. I just buy bottled.
