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.

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.
For example both 1â2 inch and 15 millimetres (0.59 in) copper pipe is actually the same pipe which has a nominal internal diameter of 1â2 an inch and a nominal external diameter of 15 millimetres (diameter is always internal in the imperial measurement system and always external in metric).
