And to ingest the lead what are they drinking, tap water. No one consumes lead by itself. Water is the universal solvent (water.usgs.gov).
True, but DMHO describes the molecular level, not the mixture of stuff that tap water is. Normal tap water is way more healthy than pure DMHO.
Valid point, on a molecular level. However, no one can consume pure water. As soon as pure, non-conductive, water is exposed to air, it immediately dissolves CO2 and other gases. The lab I directed needed to purchase pure water for some military tests. At that time, it cost $20 per quart. As soon as you opened the bottle that was the end of the purity.

You could if you had some in a vacumized bag.
As soon as pure, non-conductive, water is exposed to air, it immediately dissolves CO2 and other gases.
And in your body it will drain you of salts and other stuff through osmosis.
