Rain water

[veloman]

Is rain water okay to drink

[Rabbi]

@veloman Its unhealthy in cities as factories, vehicles and coal/biomass burning puts toxic chemicals on air and the water thats raining "scrubs" those chemicals and attach to the water. Also the cloud formation process already sponges chemicals to it and it rains down while attaching more toxic chemicals.

So you are drinking water + toxic chemicals. Not good.

@Rabbi got it, won’t try it then

rain water is distilled water with bacteria according to aajonus

[Rabbi]

@eatrawmeat yeah in very rural areas, otherwise you risk toxic chemicals from bad air coming to your water

You cant drink it cause it will suck the minerals out but it is very good for hair if you have hard water (like in the uk)
I collect it, use it in a mist spray bottle and bam my hair is healthy. rain water & eggs for hair and it's very healthy. Women just want to run their hands through mine lol.

@veloman I use it for my plants but not for myself

[veloman]

@Jay oh sounds good, I still use chlorinated water for my hair so collecting some rain water would be handy

[veloman]

@ela what plants do you have?

[Jay]

@veloman This is under the assumption that you do no shampoo because the hard water makes hair 'waxy' & well, shit. If you use shampoo it doesn't really matter

[veloman]

@Jay no shampoo, only yolks occasionally
