Showering: Is Your Health at Risk? by Peter McGarry

oils and skin creams, leaving your skin dry and unnourished.

Any contact the body has with water is cause for concern.

Swimming pools and hot tubs use chlorine to kill bacteria.

Little thought is given to the effect on the human body.

Chlorine is a highly toxic element, which has the ability

to denature protein. All living organisms are made up of

protein; thus any living organism that comes in contact

with sufficient quantities of chlorine is killed. After

swimming or showering you may notice that you have sore

eyes, sinus blockage, respiratory problems (such as

asthma), cracking skin (hands and feet), or dry hair and

an itchy scalp. You may also feel tired and your skin

might smell of chlorine for hours afterwards, even after

showering.

What is your health worth?

The May 2003 issue of Elle Magazine, featured a

showerhead that has a carbon filter that removes chlorine

as well as other toxic substances in our water like lead,

iron oxides and other sediments that leave dulling deposits

on the hair. If the showerhead removes the minerals that

cause this dulling effect, one might notice

an increase in shine and hydration. This is something you

may want to consider when comparing showerheads

and filters.

Here's to your health.
