Showers and baths provide greater exposure to toxic chemicals than drinking water from the tap. The amount of chlorine absorbed by your body during ten minutes of showering is equivalent to the amount contained in two gallons of tap water. And the steam in the shower is the perfect delivery system. Your pores are wide open in the heat. The toxins directly enter your skin and are inhaled by your lungs.
Chlorine is an inhibitor of the endocrine system and a major carcinogen.
Statistics show that one out of every three Americans will get cancer in our lifetime. I'm no longer taking things at face value. I urge you to research this issue. Above all else, don't assume that the bottled water you're using or the water from your tap, or even the well water you're pumping is free of contaminants and toxins. Nor is it advanced enough technologically to eliminate the numerous contaminants in your water.
