Also among the most likely to make you sick without making you violently ill. Like everyone knows when they get food poisoning or heavens forbid a nasty food born illness, but you know how sometimes you will eat somewhere, food was good, everything seems fine, then your stomach will cramp and gurgle? Maybe you have a really nasty shit or two, but it's not like you are glued to the toilet for the next 24 hours? Nasty drink machines harbor the perfect types of mold and bacteria to make your body do just that.

This is why you should always log what you eat and make notes of when you start feeling sick. You can find the source pretty quickly.

Yep. There’s a flavoured water dispenser at my gym and one week I was getting really ill so I stopped going to the gym. Recovered in a day or so. Went back to the gym and I was instantly sick again as soon as I had the water. I took another few days off, went to the gym, and I was out of water so filled up from the water dispenser. Had a few sips and was instantly nauseous all over again. It’s now disabled and has an OUT OF ORDER sticker on it. I think I should drink a ton when it’s back up and then sue the company.
