The Negative
Health Effects of
Chlorine
The dangers of drinking tap water
First a little background…
• Water companies will generally add either chlorine or
  chloramine to the water to kill any potentially harmful
  micro-organisms in it.
• Chlorine is a highly efficient disinfectant, and it is added to
  public water supplies to kill disease-causing bacteria that the
  water or its transport pipes might contain.
• But there are some negative advantages to this….
Points of Interest
• Although it has greatly lowered infectious waterborne
  diseases in the U.S.A. and Canada, chlorination fails against a
  variety of water problems including parasites and can
  seriously harm people who use the water.
• Its cost is unnecessarily high. As of 1996, Andover,
  Massachusetts’ new ozone treatment costs $83 per million
  gallons of purified water, only two-thirds as much as the old
  treatment process.
Hazardous to Health
• Chlorine in water destroys protective acidophilus, which
  nourishes and co-operates with the 3 to 3.5 pounds of
  immunity-strengthening “friendly” organisms lining the colon,
  where about 60 percent of our immune cells operate. And
  chlorine combines with organic impurities in the water to
  make trihalomethanes (THMs), or chloramines.
Issues with Contaminates
• The EPA called 129 contaminants found in water supplies
  "dangerous" singly, let alone in combination.
• Pesticides and other toxic wastes run off farmlands and
  pastures or are dumped by factories, pollute rivers and seep
  into underground aquifers.
• Aptly called "biocides" by Russell Jaffe, MD, PhD, pesticides
  are designed to end life; few have been shown to be safe.
Issues Cont’d
• The EPA depends on producers of pesticides to test their
  safety: the wolf guards the hen house. It should be no surprise
  that the tests take a long time and many have been
  fraudulent.
• There is only a few solutions to this issue, but the most cost-
  effective and truly simple option is a filtered water system.
