Very helpful information! Thank you, Sue!
I was reminded of one question lurking in the back of my mind. Dr Honda mentions the concerns about drinking water and the data on tap vs spring water vs bottled water, also UV bottle filters. But what is the concern exactly? MAC isn't spread by drinking it, it's spread by breathing it. Is there a concern that even the tiny bit that might (??) be aerosolized when you are drinking water could be breathed in?

@lvnl I believe the main concern is for those who have GERD. Regurgitation into the esophagus can be inhaled. Please, someone, correct me if you have other information.
