Answers:
Dihydrogen monoxide by itself is quite all right for human consumption, but mixed with enough sodium chloride it could become toxic for humans!.
A little of each is actually good for you, replacing nutrients and minerals in your body that are depleted daily!. But if you have a high sodium chloride content in your dihydrogen monoxide, you would suffer from dehydration as the kidneys could not recover and you would eventually suffer accute renal failure!.
Now, too much of each will also kill you!. Ingesting too much dihydrogen monoxide can lead to Hyponatremia!. Other possibilities include brain swelling, paralysis and death!.
Ingesting too much sodium chloride will result in renal failure!.
This is a very touchy topic and each item should be prepared only by professionals or at least home-schooled (like mid-wives)!. Inbibe and ingest at your own risk!. Millions of people do it daily!.!.!.!.and LIVE!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Dihydrogen monoxide, shortened to DHMO, is a scientific name for water that, while technically correct, is almost never employed!."Dihydrogen monoxide" may sound dangerous to those with a limited knowledge of chemistry or who hold to an ideal of a "chemical-free" life!. The term monoxide has negative connotations due to its being part of the name of the highly poisonous carbon monoxide!.
It should be fine to eat whatever it is!. If you are still concerned, there is usually a helpline on the back of the packaging that you could ring :)Www@FoodAQ@Com

Dihydrogen Monoxide (DHMO) is a colorless and odorless chemical compound, also referred to by some as Dihydrogen Oxide, Hydrogen Hydroxide, Hydronium Hydroxide, or simply Hydric acid!. Its basis is the highly reactive hydroxyl radical, a species shown to mutate DNA, denature proteins, disrupt cell membranes, and chemically alter critical neurotransmitters!. The atomic components of DHMO are found in a number of caustic, explosive and poisonous compounds such as Sulfuric Acid, Nitroglycerine and Ethyl Alcohol!.
Although the U!.S!. Government and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) do not classify Dihydrogen Monoxide as a toxic or carcinogenic substance (as it does with better known chemicals such as hydrochloric acid and benzene), DHMO is a constituent of many known toxic substances, diseases and disease-causing agents, environmental hazards and can even be lethal to humans in quantities as small as a thimbleful!.
After reading that i wouldnt eat it :)Www@FoodAQ@Com

Unless you are willing to go all natural, you will find a lot of items out there that have the scariest names!. Enter the ingredient in question into a search engine and see what it comes up with, if you are still afraid then skip it!. I wouldn't eat silicon dioxide, either, but it's a common anti caking ingredient added in a lot of things that stops products from clumping!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I don't know much about elements and that kind stuff, but I'm pretty sure that dihydrogen monoxide is just water!.!.!.Just some plain H2O!.!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
