Wishing you a very happy and prosperous New Year 2009!
I am glad that Andrew Weil, PhD published this information concerning water on www.drweil.com. I hope that everyone thinks twice before plunging into the swimming pools!
Are You Showering in Chlorine?
Each Sunday in January we present healthy home tips - enjoy, and pass them along to friends and loved ones.Most Americans - up to 80 percent - drink water that has chlorine in it. While many people now use water filters in conjunction with their faucets for drinking water, many do not consider the amount of chlorine absorbed through a shower. Skin absorbs water; if that water is chlorinated, some chlorine is absorbed as well. To combat the effects of chlorinated water (which may include an increased risk of cancer and reproductive problems), purchase a water filter for your showerhead. Carbon-based filters and KDF filters made of copper and zinc both help to remove chlorine.
