The American Chemical Society estimates that "we could receive from 6 to 100 times more chlorine by breathing the air around showers and baths than we could by drinking water." The skin is our body's largest organ and is entirely chlorine absorbent. Chlorine chemically bonds with the protein in our skin and hair, making hair brittle and dry, and making skin itch, dry, and flake. One half of our daily chlorine exposure is from showering. Not only is chlorine absorbed through the skin, but it also vaporizes in the shower, is inhaled into the lungs, and is transferred directly into the blood system. In fact, chlorine exposure from one shower is equal to an entire day's amount of drinking the same water. Therefore, drinking filtered good water addresses only half the problem. Our ultra shower filter offers the answer for the complete solution. This shower filter is a product of extensive research and development to provide a maximum degree of filtering performance from a minimum sized filter. The ultra shower filter combines low-profile styling with the exclusive filtration media (Chlorgon and KDF carbon); it is small in size, but "big in strength."
