soft v hard water

[kentishbear]

A mate raised the question today as to whether hard water from my area (kent) would fur up your intestines like it does a kettle! more than soft water from his area (Wales)

i have no idea.. i dont think it would make much difference.. but is there can anyone help

Hard water does effect your body but it more likely to be the kidneys.i lived in surrey which had hard water and i suffered badly from kidney stones which seem to have disappeared now i have moved north.

Hard water will have no effect on your intestines or kidneys.

If you live in a hard water area, then you are lucky enough to have mineral water coming out of your tap - the stuff that people pay a fortune for in bottles. AND it's subject to umpteen safety checks, unlike the bottled stuff.
