Since then I use a water filter on all water sources. At home we us a Brita filter.




Just so you know, a Brita will not remove bacteria from water, only chemicals and sediment. We had a boil water advisory here last winter after some particularly bad rainstorms caused the water supply to become contaminated, and they said just using a Brita is useless. Under normal circumstances, though, municipal water supplies are already treated for harmful bacteria.

Taking 12g of Acacia per day. Relatively stable since March 2008!
