It is unsafe to drink water directly from lakes, ponds, streams and rivers as these open sources contain parasites and bacteria. If you consume any of these contaminants, you can get illnesses like giardia or cryptosporidium. This can cause symptoms like diarrhea, nausea, weight loss, low energy and gas.
