I noticed it today! I think it has been growing for about a week now. AND IVE BEEN DRINKING IT ! YUCK!!!!
WHAT NOW?
I threw the bottle out and now I need something to make me feel better.
Milk, Lemon wedges, garlic??? Any suggestions? Or will I just have to wait for it to get out of my system. Is this a reason to take a trip to the Dr.?

My guess is if you've been drinking it for a week now, and didnt start feeling sick until you noticed it, you probably feel sick because you're grossed out. We can trick our minds into making us feel sick even when we really arent. If you really do have an upset stomach try some sprite or 7up, that should calm it. Other than that drink plenty of water (without any algae in the bottom of your glass :P ), and if you really feel like a doctor visit is in your best interest, then make an appointment....you should be alright though.

No need to go to the Dr. It will pass, another reason to not drink out of an unwashed bottle is bacteria and you cant see bacteria, I don't know your symptoms or if you have them because you saw the algae if that's the case you were grossed out and your tummy is upset, take some bismal like pepto-bismal, and be careful because you really can get sick from a dirty bottle. Some things are made with algae so don't worry.

Nah, you don't need to worry about it...as long as you didn't shake the bottle everytime you drink it. It could happened because probably you didn't close the caps tight enough...or maybe the bottle is dirty. next time, keep your bottle out of sunlight...that helps the algae grow faster....i mean the sunlight, the sunlight helps the algae grow faster.... just take some diarrhea meds for precaution...you'll be fine...think about it as fiber....

If you hadn't noticed it you would still be fine! Just be careful from now on. If it would make you feel better drink a lot of cranberry juice and lots of water today. That will flush everything out.

If you have no symptoms, don't worry about it. If you notice you are feeling sick, call you doctor. The human body can withstand a lot, so I wouldn't worry too much about it, but just make sure you don't do it again.

Drink lots of fluid, and it will eventually get out of your system.

it shouldnt matter too much.
because its a form of plant your body should dispose of it easily.
however if you feel really sick or something after a day or two
then i would visit the doctors.
