I'd avoid anything that isn't labeled 'potable' - I'm not trying to grow a third eye or sprout gills, you know?

D, definitely. I'm not about to start drinking stormwater or graywater. That's a fast track to a nasty case of the runs.

I'm going with D as well. The other options sound like they'd give me superpowers, but not in a good way.
