Many people are not aware that everyday they are exposing themselves to dangerous chemicals right in the shower. Chlorine is used to eliminate bacteria and is used to purify water nationwide, but what you might not know is that this chlorine is actually harmful to your health in the long term. Chlorine has been linked to bladder, colon, liver, and stomach cancers, as well as heart disease, high blood pressure, and allergies. This chlorine heats up when your shower water gets hot. The chlorine evaporates along with the steam in the shower and is inhaled as you breathe. As well, chlorine is absorbed through your skin and into your bloodstream, leaving two easy ways for chlorine and chloramines to enter your body, while you are simply rinsing off in the shower. Correct showerhead products include filtering, either using Chlorgon (a patented chlorine filtration media) or a copper/zinc filtration media which functions in exactly the same way. Both of these technologies eliminate the impurities from the water before they reach your body or the surrounding air you will be breathing.
Not only are you preserving your health by using a filtering showerhead product, but you are also ensured important beauty and comfort benefits. When the filtration media softens the water, the harsh and drying chemicals that may later affect your health are also affecting your physical appearance. With pure water hair will improve. You will notice a change in hair's fullness, silkiness, and shine, not to mention preserving the richness of color-treated hair. Skin quality will also improve. Your skin will actually feel softer and more naturally moisturized. Previous problems such as dandruff and itching will no longer be a concern. As for one final benefit to filtered water, without chemical-ridden water, tiles and glass on and around your shower or bath will no longer need to be scrubbed! Chlorgon-treated water is softer, and does not result in the calcified build-up of the past.
Remember, all of the showering products discussed come with the benefits of thorough chlorine filtration; the choices are in the style, type, and color of your choice. Filters are offered by themselves (if you would like to keep your existing showerhead), filters with showerheads, shower handles (which are the same as removable showerheads with filters), filtering extension arms, and even a few specialized bath products bringing this same water purification concept to your baths and hot tubs! Every product has a refillable cartridge assigned to it, which can be easily replaced and purchased either with your showerhead or by itself later. As a last note, none of these products require a plumber or tools. From the showerheads to the cartridges, everything snaps right into place in seconds.
Clean, pure, rejuvenating, and refreshing showers are waiting for you!
