Business has become a fact of life for almost everyone who works for a company of medium size. Sometimes this journey will lead us in the distance, where dangers abound. I met one when traveling abroad at the end of 1990. After hours on four different planes finally arrived at my hotel. I’m not even sure what it is. I had brought a counter and ate some before going to sleep. The water was not safe I felt in the middle of the night are available, but I thought I could do to any other drink in the morning before you get something. After traveling all day and night, I needed to brush my teeth. Although he had been warned about the water, I thought I would brush my teeth. Finally, he would not drink.

The next morning I get up and serve the rest of my group. At that time I felt a little ‘stunned, and skip breakfast. A few hours later and I have diarrhea and a general feeling bad. Hot flashes and cold after a little ‘later, and then the fever. Only the good food makes me stomach and cramps.
My host took me to one of the largest hospitals, where I was employed up to an IV fluid and in the coming days are very dark and confused in my memory. They are dosed with antibiotics and recovered enough to return home. I still do not feel well and go to my doctor the next day I got off the plane. He prescribed an antibiotic still strong, but the cramps and diarrhea the next day and see a gastroenterologist. It was what I was confused. Following requests for assistance from the Centers for Disease Control, which is finally an effective treatment. So my doctor had to go to the CDC to find ways to treat my problem. All, I think, brush my teeth with water very suspicious!

Since this ordeal, I have studied and tested by all methods of water purification available. There are several criteria for a water treatment method must meet for business. Obviously I’m not traveling to the Far East or elsewhere, with a hot pot to boil water. The first criterion is that each method should be used in portable, lightweight and small. It should also be used to easily and quickly. I looked for chemical disinfection. It ‘just a couple of drops or tablets can not protect a disinfectant, if necessary. Iodine, and sodium hypochlorite solution, and common chemical disinfectants, they are portable and effective against many dangers, but I can not work effectively enough. Neither is completely effective against Giardia and Cryptosporidium. Chemical solutions that do the work, to be more complex and time consuming. The test strips to ensure drinking water is needed when using a chemical solution.

A simple water filter will not work. However, there are many special clean water pump surgery, and I a few years. He protected me, but I never felt very safe with him. Then I learned that the filter itself can be a place for the settlement of bacteria. Some years ago I discovered the portable UV water treatment. I was among the first to give a chance to UV water purifier. I found these cleaners are much easier to grasp and use. Many of these studies have UV water purifier to be extremely effective. In fact, more than many of the EPA guidelines for water safety. I have since learned that UV filters the water, like the SteriPEN Adventurer water purifier has been widely accepted by backpackers and hikers. These water filters has not left me little to do after the monthly trips to all corners of the world. When traveling, there are many dangers you should consider. A simple slip, like brushing my experience, you can quickly compromised. ortunately, once recognized by most of the dangers, you can prepare. This is the case of drinking water. I came for my travels, UV water treatment, and a plan to avoid duplication of disease via contaminated water, which I leave years ago.
