Evidence shows that drinking ultra-pure or demineralized water has specific physiological and nutritional effects on the human body, including altered nutrient intake over the long term.

The analysis

The claim states that drinking ultra-pure water has specific physiological effects. The retrieved literature includes a systematic review explicitly evaluating the health and physiological effects of demineralized (ultra-pure) water compared to other waters, noting adverse long-term nutritional outcomes (Paper 2), as well as an in vitro study demonstrating its specific chemical and physiological interactions (Paper 4). Consequently, the claim is supported by the evidence.
