Toxic water

Many people are aware of how toxic tap water can be. One of the ways to reduce exposure is to of course not drink tap water but another way is to add good quality water filters to your sinks, showers or a complete home unit. We have recently purchased the Aquasana shower filter and fell in love with it the first day. Our hair is softer, skin not as dry and we love it.

Removing chlorine from shower water offers very noticeable cosmetic benefits. Chlorine robs our skin and hair of the natural oils that retain moisture and elasticity. Without the harsh effects of chlorine you often experience softer, healthier skin and hair.

Other than the immediate cosmetic effects, shower filtration offers significant health protection and benefits. Inhalation of chlorine with steam and skin absorption while showering have been linked to breast, colon and bladder cancer as well as asthma. Chlorine is a poison, and while its effects are tolerated in order to prevent water borne disease from bacteria, it is well documented and understood that it has dramatic adverse health effects.
