Video Description:When you travel, you'll always want to consider water safety. No, we're not talking life jackets and a swimming buddy! We're talking drinking water and diseases.
Transcript:Water's the healthiest beverage on the planet, right? Well…not when you're traveling to foreign locales. Because it's nearly impossible to guarantee the safety of drinking water in any country, taking precautions is just smart. Start by drinking only sealed bottled water and beverages made with boiled water, like hot tea and coffee. You can also safely enjoy commercially canned and bottled, soft drinks, beer and wine, but remember that international brands are safest. If your plans include camping, purify your own water by boiling, adding iodine, or filtering it. Now that you know what TO do, here's what to avoid. Remember, don't rinse toothbrushes in tap water. Avoid ice unless it is made from boiled, bottled, or purified water. Steer clear of wet cans or bottles-the water on them may be contaminated. Following these rules may bring a little work to your time off, but it beats spending your vacation in the restroom!
