Question: Is it safe to drink water which has been boiled more than once?
My Chinese freinds tell me it is bad for your health but they cannot explain to me why this is so. Any thoughts? Cheers. Luke

It is an ancient Chinese secret. That's how they make poison. Boil water twice.....Good poison.

I live in China! ha-ha



Yes, why would it be unsafe?

It's safe to assume that those water molecules have been boiled and frozen several thousand times in their history. why would it being boiled twice more make any sort of significant difference?



Yes, it's called water.
Your Chinese friends are apparently steeped in mystical nonsense.



Na thats probably just some sort of chinese myth. It's fine.



Chinese are screwed in the head.



It will burn your lips! Too hot! I would blow on it and let it cool down for 15-20 minutes.
