Did you know taking a typical shower can expose you to nearly ten times more chlorine than you would receive by drinking unfiltered tap water all day long.

When it comes to the water you drink, you might go out of your way to buy it bottled or filtered — so you’re guaranteed something that is pure and clean. It just makes good sense.

You install filters on your kitchen tap, so even the water you use in your cooking is safe. You wouldn’t want to knowingly put harmful chemicals and pollutants into your body, right?

So, it’s surprising that you’ll take showers in the same water you refuse to wash your veggies in. But, more than just surprising, it’s also potentially hazardous to your health…

Simple exposure to water in your shower and bath has the potential to do real and long-term damage to your health and well being.

In fact, exposure to the chemicals in your shower and the steam a hot shower produces, including chlorine, chloroform, trichloroethylene (TCE), and hydrogen sulfide, may cause cancer, respiratory illness, liver and kidney disease, and a whole host of other health problems.

That’s right — every single day you could be putting yourself at risk by simply stepping into the shower. Wow! This is one time where singing in the shower is not advised. This, in my opinion, is a serious problem.

Thankfully, I’ve got a very simple solution for you. But first…

The Dangers of Chlorine in your showers

When we take a shower our exposure to toxins is higher as the water is vaporized hence allow it to penetrate our skin and to enter our lungs which has an enormous surface area.

That’s why it’s so critical you help protect yourself, starting now…

Consider these facts about the danger of chlorine exposure — and remember chlorine is just ONE of the chemicals in your water right now:

• On average, you consume between 1-2 gallons of water a day, but on average you expose yourself to 25 gallons of water when you shower. The U.S. Council of Environmental Quality reports that cancer risks for people who drink chlorinated water are 93% higher than people who don’t.

• Even if your skin repels 75% of all chemicals and toxins in the water, that still leaves 25% of chemicals that make their way through your semi-permeable skin and into your body. That means one 15-minute shower is the equivalent of drinking 8 glasses of polluted water.

But, it gets worse…

• When you take a hot shower, toxic chemicals are liberated from the water and released as gasses, including chloroform (50% more released) and trichloroethylene (TCE) (80% more released) — both known carcinogens.

That steam you love so much — that is so relaxing to you — well, it’s potentially filled with gasses that could harm you.

In fact, research shows that the dangers of vaporized chlorine are 100 times greater through inhalation and bathing than drinking. It’s a harsh reality, isn’t it?

And, the longer your shower… the bigger your potential risk. As you double the length of your shower, you quadruple the amount of harmful gasses that are accumulating.
