Question

I've been drinking water that's been left overnight in a copper vessel, and I've been doing this every day, even during the rainy season. Should I keep this routine going all year round? Is there any reason I should stop during different seasons?

Your symptoms suggest an underlying gastrointestinal issue. Consider the following possible causes:

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) Gastritis or stomach ulcers

Consult a gastroenterologist for a thorough evaluation and diagnosis.
