When you have symptoms (belly pain, diarrhea, a lot of gas), choose foods that are easy on your gut. The trick to managing the disease is to choose foods from the left hand column when you have a flare up or an upset in the functioning of your gut. These foods are low in fiber, fats and are easier on you.
Copper pipes corrode as well, but (theoretically) over a longer period than the galvanized types. Generally a copper pipe can last 50-70 years under good conditions. PH levels in the water and grounding both affect the pipes and speed up corrosion extensively.
Therefore corrosion of copper pipes and fittings incur significant costs. Fortunately, problems with copper corrosion are relatively rare and the cause is usually well understood. Problems include coloured (blue) water, pinholes in the pipe or fitting, and failure of copper hot water cylinders. History of copper pipes and products Copper pipes have been used for domestic water services for nearly 200 years. The introduction of copper pipes offered a stronger, lighter and cheaper alternative to lead. The first pipes, used in 1810 (Reference 2), were made from sheet metal.
