A Guide To Buying The Best Shower Filter by Rudaiya(f): 2:12pm On Dec 04, 2016
Chlorine in our drinking water or water chlorination is a wonder of modern health and science. When it comes to keeping our drinking water free of germs and disease, nothing really beats chlorine for its efficiency and effectiveness.

Though there are some downsides of water chlorination, such as an altered taste and smell of our water, plus the rare chance of harmful disinfection byproducts not being filtered out completely. To have all the benefits of a reliable disinfectant without the downsides, most of us drink filtered tap water, but did you ever think about the water in your shower?

Research has shown that your body can absorb more harmful disinfectant byproducts from a 10 minute shower than drinking one liter (one quart) of tap water. Disinfection byproducts such as trihalomethanes (THTs) have been linked to bowel and colon cancer in humans, albeit at very low rates. Don’t panic too much, the health benefits of having clean disease-free water far outweigh the small cancer risk.

Chlorine in your shower water also acts to strip the natural protective oils in your skin and hair. This can dry out your skin & hair causing it weaken, lose body & color. The drying nature of chlorine in your shower water can also cause eczema and other skin conditions to flare up.

Want the best of both worlds? Disease-free water for your shower but without the drying effect and harmful chlorination byproducts. A dechlorinating shower filter is just what the doctor ordered.

Shower filters are introduced to eliminate chlorine and chloramines from shower water. And it's better to use shower filters in the bathroom and here is the best shower filter for blonde hair that I am using for so many years and giving great results.
