What happens if you drink mold from a water bottle?
Wondering what happens if you drink something with mold in it? ... Unfortunately, not all molds are tasty – or healthy. But luckily, swallowing a few sips or bites of a moldy item typically isn't a big deal thanks to stomach acid, which is strong enough to kill most pathogens.

Re: What happens if you drink mold from a water bottle?
Even the Iss has to deal with the water supply having similar problems for the tanks which hold it even way up in orbit.
I would wager we will have the problem on the moon or Mars in a not so distant future.
