    Hard water contains dissolved Calsium and Magnesium salts.Though both are very essential for your bones and good health,an intake in excess amount may lead to health issues like kidney problems.Hardness of water can be removed by mere boiling.
    .
    Softwater on the other hand has numerous benifits like making it easy to clean stuffs like clothes,but it may be equally fatal if it has disolved fluoride salts in it.Fluorine in excess leads to weakening of joints and the affected person suffers a great deal of pain.
    .
    Regarding drinking water,you should never take the safety for granted.Get the water analysis done in the nearby lab.Even a junior college graduate will be able to do the analysis of water for the dissolved components.Getting the help of experts won't cost you much.It'd cost you less than $2.0.

    I filled my waterbed with the hard water that comes from the tap, but I had trouble sleeping so I drained it and refilled it with soft water, now I sleep much better. So I would say soft water is healthier.

    I think soft water is healthier than hard water.
    But if hard water is proved as good water, I think hard water is more healty only in this case.

    Our country has many mountain. Many people lived in mountain,they like to drink hard water. Our country's elders mostly think hard water in a mountain is best.
