When You Travel Abroad, Camp or Backpack…
…you run a risk of illness ranging from the inconvenience and discomfort of
diarrhea to
more serious illnesses caused by protozoan cysts (i.e., Giardia,
Cryptosporidium), viruses
and bacteria.
The microorganisms that cause these diseases are often found in the food and
water you
consume. Lakes, streams and the local water supply may be contaminated.
To minimize the risk of contracting these illnesses, we suggest that you
consult with your
physician, state health department or travelers’ clinic 4 6 weeks before you
depart.
And while you are traveling…
• Make sure that prepared food is thoroughly cooked.
• Select non cooked foods (fruits, nuts, etc.) that have intact shells or
skins, and clean your hands before peeling
the food.
•Wash your hands with soap and water thoroughly and often, especially before
you eat. Filter all drinking water
with your Katadyn Guide Water Microfilter.
Caution:
If there is any risk of viruses in the water, use an EPA registered
disinfectant such
as Micropur Purification MP1, or boil your water.
