A bit of humor.
Always use a portable .01 micron filter. It might not do to much for the taste but you won't die.😫

If it makes you feel better, I read some where that a flowing mountain Brook is self purifying a certain distance down stream. I’ve forgotten how far.
Another bit of advice I heard, I think was from Confusus, was, Always drink upstream from the herd??
Just a thought..thousands of things die in and around streams that are never seen.
Also, fish make love in water.
That's not as bad as the City of St. Louis, MO that pulls water out of the Mississippi for its municipal water supply. The worst part of that is that St. Louis is downstream of Chicago.
I don’t think there’s much choice involved. You’re natural body functions will likely handle it in one of three ways…only one of which is likely to go unnoticed.
The days of drinking from a creek and being healthy ... are long gone.

I thought there was four possible outcomes.
1. Blow out the top end.
2. Blow out the bottom end.
3. Not wake up in the morning.
4. Elixir of life.
