Does the swimming pool have toxic Chlorine?
|VIDEO: Learn the hidden truth about swimming pools!
It is shocking to learn that, of the estimated 2100 possible toxic chemicals found in water, only 75 are treated by public facilities. Chlorine, for example, is both added and checked. This is because bacteria and other pathogens may grow in the water before it reaches homes and public facilities. The chlorine also rids the water of many toxins such as dysentery, cholera, and typhoid.
This benefit comes with serious side effects. This is because chlorine forms compounds called THMs (trihalomethanes). These compounds can cause cancer and are able to damage cells. Chlorine causes scarring of the arteries thus making it easier for cholesterol to attach itself to the walls. Yet, did you know that many cities allow a level of chlorine in the public water that exceeds recommended swimming pool levels!
