IS YOUR SHOWER HEALTHY?
YOUR SHOWER IS NOT AS HEALTHY AS YOU THINK
When you take a shower with chlorinated water, you absorb by inhalation of 10 to 100 times more chlorine and chemicals (chlorine, chloroform, trichlorethylene, haloforms, pesticids, etc ...) than in drinking water .
When inhaled, these chemical products enter the bronchial tubes and respiratory system.
Also by contact, their oxidative effect makes them responsible for the ageing of the skin and hair, and often they cause irritation and skin allergies such as eczema, rashes and itching.
Finally, due to the permeability of the skin, they seep into the bloodstream.
