Chlorine
in Your Shower
The American
Chemical Society estimates that "we receive from 6 to 100 times more chlorine
by breathing the air around showers and baths than we could by drinking
water."
The skin
is our body's largest organ and it is entirely chlorine absorbent. Chlorine
chemically bonds with the protein in our skin and hair, making hair brittle
and dry, and causing skin to itch, dry, and age prematurely. Over 50%
of our daily chlorine exposure comes from showering. This is because chlorine
is not only absorbed through our skin, but it is also vaporized in the
shower and is inhaled into our lungs, and transferred directly into the
blood stream.
Our patented
Chlorgon and KDF-55 shower filters effectively remove chlorine and other
chemicals from the shower, protecting your skin, hair and lungs from the
toxic vapors that cause irritation, asthma and illness. The resulting
pH balanced water is clean and healthy, giving you the most naturally
refreshing shower ever. Without the harsh influences of chlorine, you'll
soon notice significant cosmetic benefits such as softer skin & hair almost
immediately.

Dangers
of Long Term Chlorine Exposure
Chlorine
is a very toxic gas that irritates the respiratory system and can have
an adverse effect on human health in concentrations of as low as 1 ppm
(parts per million). Coughing and vomiting will occur at 30 ppm and lung
damage can occur at the 60 ppm levels of concentration. At 1000 ppm, chlorine
can be fatal after a few deep breaths of the gas. In fact, chlorine is
so deadly that it was actually used as a chemical weapon in both World
War I and the Iraq War.
Most
cities in the United States deliver chlorinated water in the 2-4
ppm concentration range. While this level of chlorine in your shower
and bath water may not make you sick, it is still a potential health
hazard and possible carcinogen. Research has shown that chronic
exposure to chlorine concentrations of around 5 ppm caused respiratory
complaints, corrosion of the teeth, inflammation of the mucous membranes
of the nose, and increased susceptibility to emphysema, pneumonia
and tuberculosis in workers. Animal studies have reported decreased
body weight gain, eye and nose irritation, and effects on the respiratory
tract, liver, and kidneys from chronic inhalation exposure to chlorine.
Studies published in Nature and Health magazine indicate the likelihood
that regular exposure to chlorinated water can even promote the
aging process of the skin, much like extended exposure to sunlight.
The
average person receives 50% of their chlorine exposure from taking
a bath or shower. To be safe, a chlorine shower filter should be
installed in every bathroom to protect yourself and your family
from this toxic chemical.
