Understand The Risks
Microorganisms Are ----- the primary threat in untreated water sources. They may be in any lake, river or stream, even if the water looks clean. Microorganisms generally come from animal or human waste and may be spread by rain and run-off. Since you never know what’s in the water, it makes sense to always protect yourself with a quality water system.
Evidence You Need A Water Filter!
-
Do not swallow recreational water!
-
Do not drink untreated water from shallow wells, lakes,
rivers, springs, ponds, and streams!
-
Do not drink untreated water during community-wide outbreaks
of disease caused by contaminated drinking water!
-
Do not use untreated ice or drinking water when traveling in
countries where the water supply might be unsafe!
-
Heat the water to a rolling boil for at least 1 minute.
-
Use a Filter that has an Absolute Pore Size of 1 Micron or
Smaller, or one that has been NSF rated for "cyst removal."
-
Do Not Rely On Chemicals To Disinfect
Water And Kill
Cryptosporidium! Because it has a thick outer
shell, this particular parasite is highly resistant to
disinfectants such as chlorine and iodine.
-
Take extra care when traveling - If you
travel to developing nations, you may be at a greater risk
for Cryptosporidium infection because of poorer
water treatment and food sanitation. Warnings about
food, drinks, and swimming are even more important when
visiting developing countries. Avoid foods and drinks, in
particular raw fruits and vegetables, tap water, or ice made
from tap water, unpasteurized milk or dairy products, and
items purchased from street vendors. These items may
be contaminated with Cryptosporidium.
Steaming-hot foods, fruits you peel yourself, bottled and
canned processed drinks, and hot coffee or hot tea are
probably safe. Talk with your health care provider
about other guidelines for travel abroad.
