You end up with very minute particles in the water which will eventually pack together at any small leak points (including head gaskets) to seal them up which can take a few days.
Saying this I have since found out that I have a suspect water pump which is causing the loss which I am having replaced shortly. Still leaving this stuff in though and I have no worries about using it. Never heard of the other one though.
