Why the tap water is not so good?
We all know untreated water is not suitable for our health. So chlorine is introduced by municipal water treatment plants to disinfect water. However, tap water is notorious for its pharmaceuticals and byproducts, besides the unfiltered heavy metals, remaining bacteria and virus. Chlorination by-processes produce an array of dangerous toxins. The by-products of chlorination include Chloroform, Bromodichloromethane, Chlorodibromomethane, Bromoform, Chloroacetic Acid, Dichloroacetic Acid, Trichloroacetic Acid, Dichloroacetonitrile, etc. Most of them are known carcinogens. They not only are irritating to human’s skin, hair, eyes, and lungs, but also aggregate asthma, allergies, and respiratory problems. Risks for certain types of cancer and tumors are now being correlated to the use of chlorinated water.
