Water is life – without water you will barely last three days before your whole body starts to shut down – this is not good news if you’re in an emergency survival situation.

Add this to the fact that you cannot drink just any old water that’s laying around, then things can go south pretty fast.

Salt water is a definite no no, and from there you must decide what represents the lesser risk if you have to drink from any other place like a stagnant pond or a free flowing mountain stream.

To most of us preppers having the knowledge to be able to produce safe drinking water from these sources is a survival skill that requires learning and putting into practice.

In theory, you can drink just about any water. In practice you have to decide how much of a risk you are prepared to take by drinking that water.

The difference between your choice can mean life or death – as simple as that.
