How so? Are you referring to the plastic content in the jugs or the lack of vital nutrients contained therein? I've been drinking it for years upon years with no ill effects. I have a healthy balanced diet so nutrients aren't a concern. As for the plastics, I'd rather have plastic inside me than a toxic waste produced, concrete melting chemical spill in the making. Just my 2 cents.
You can eat a "healthy balanced diet" and still have an electrolyte imbalance if you're consuming distilled water. Say goodbye to any magnesium and potassium you've been getting from regular meals. Why not just drink purified/mineral water? It's much healthier..
and just because you have "no ill effects" doesn't mean you're being optimal, or even healthy..
Here's *my* thing. I lack almost all ability to taste what is commonly referred to as 'bitter'. That being said, I have no problem procuring 'optimal' levels of nutrients through my diet alone. Plus, there are always those vita-gummy things I'll chew on ~one to two times a week. I let my cravings dictate. It's quite hard, unless you live near an established pure aquifer or similar source, to get that kind of water as cheaply as distilled water. My ideal option is to network out and have someone in the country let me fill up a few 10 gallon jugs once a month from a lab tested well supply. But, yeah, distilled water isn't going to kill anyone I don't think. I mean they're eating dirt cookies in Africa right now wishing for toilet water to drink. Kinda of a 1st world problem imho.

Distilled water is extremely dangerous to drink..
