Dr. Alvin Lin answered

Water: Unfortunately, I can't comment on the quality of water in Egypt. For that matter, I can't comment on bottling quality in Egypt. Presumably your standards are reasonable enough. Rather than focus on things that you can't change, figure out variables that are under your control.
