You should never drink water from a natural source that you haven’t purified, even if the water looks clean. Water in a stream, river or lake may look clean, but it can still be filled with bacteria, viruses, and parasites that can result in waterborne diseases, such as cryptosporidiosis or giardiasis. If you’re unsure about the safety of the water, it’s always better to err on the side of caution and purify it before drinking.<\/p>\n
