Turns out we need those minerals that the softener removes. I personally don't want stuff removed from my food & drink.
We pay good money for all that gluten, caffeine, sugar, alcohol, fat, salt, etc.

I think it's more than just the added sodium. Lono Ho'ala, who sells water treatment products and has worked with Dr. Huggins, said he too doesn't know exactly why, but thinks it could be bacteria breeding on the softener's resin beads or the beads themselves deteriorating. Many organizations advise against drinking softened water, if anyone wants I will look up the references, and there are studies that moderately hard water is better for heart health.
