Shower Filter - Showerwise®
There's nothing like turning on the
shower first thing in the morning, stepping into a steamy,
luxurious haven of... chlorine smell. Yuck! Perhaps it's a
little annoying, and you don't give it a second thought. Or
maybe you have read the
studies that flash back into your mind every time you step
into your shower, er, gas chamber. Today is the day that you
finally decide to break the annoyance and purchase your very own
Showerwise Shower Filter! Good for you!
"In terms of
cumulative damage to your health, showering in chlorinated water
is one of the most dangerous risks you take daily. Short-term
risks include: eyes, sinus, throat, skin and lung irritation.
Long-term risks include: excessive free-radical formation (that
ages you!) higher vulnerability to genetic mutation and cancer
development; and difficulty metabolizing cholesterol, causing
hardened arteries. " -Science News -

Showerwise® Chrome Extension Arm
If you are concerned about your shower head being too low, or if your
shower head is too high for small children, the chrome extension arm
might be just what you need. As you can see in the picture, the shower
head can go above the filter, and anywhere between that and fully below
the filter. In the picture you can see that the filter housing and
shower head for the Showerwise are not located right next to each other.
This prevents the weight from getting too heavy for the arm to handle. I
put one of these on my shower recently and it was very simple to do. I'm
really happy with the new adjustable height for myself and two small
children.

Why Showerwise®?
Perhaps you are wondering why in the world you would want to filter
your shower water. Sounds a bit extreme, doesn't it? After all, we've
been taking showers for YEARS, yet we are still standing! Right? For
vain reasons, showering in filtered water prevents drying out of your
hair and skin. For health reasons, consider the following:
-
Believe it or not, bathing and
showering in unfiltered, chlorinated water is even more harmful than drinking
the same water. Taking one shower is as harmful as drinking contaminated water
all day long. Not only are toxic substances inhaled, but they are also absorbed
through the skin.
-
"We conclude that skin
absorption of contaminants in drinking water has been underestimated and that
ingestion may not constitute the sole or even primary route of exposure."
-American Journal of Public Health, May, 1984, Vol. 74, No. 5
-
"Showering is suspected as the primary
cause of elevated chloroform in nearly every home because of the
chlorine in the water. Chloroform [a known carcinogen] levels increase up to 100
times during a ten-minute shower in residential water" - Environmental Protection Agency - Dr. Lance Wallace
-
"Ironically, even the Chlorine
widely used to disinfect water produces Carcinogenic traces. Studies indicate
the suspect chemicals can also be inhaled and absorbed through the skin during
showering and bathing."
- U. S. News & World Report - 29 July 1991, Is your Water Safe - The Dangerous
State of Your Water
-
Up to 2/3 of the harmful effects of
chlorine are due to inhalation and skin absorption while showering.
-The American Journal Of Public Health
-
We have known for a long time that
chloramines can trigger, rather than cause asthma. -Ralph Riley,
head of the National Pool Water Treatment Advisory Group
-
One common factor among women with
breast cancer is that they all have 50-60% higher levels of these
chlorination by-products (THMs) in their fat tissue than women
without breast cancer... -BreastCancerFund.org
"The Showerwise filter was very easy to install and has made a big
difference in the softness and manageability of my hair." -Leah, Dayton,
OH
"Now with Showerwise I don't have that chemical smell in the
bathroom. I am a cancer survivor and aware of all the toxins and
pollutants around us. I feel safer using this product." -Carol,
San Bruno, CA
"I highly recommend this product. More and more is being
written about chemical contamination through the skin, mouth &
nose. My husband is hard to please and he is 'thumbs up' with
Showerwise." -Judith, Alpharetta, GA
"It's easy to install and has good massage power. I don't
feel my skin drying from the chlorine. My wife loves it. Quality
of water is much clearer." -Jose, New York, NY
"The filter does a good job of cleaning the water. Soap
lathers up nicer and my skin feels cleaner. The massage head is
a must have. You can tell the water is much better with the lack
of water spots." Brad, Minneapolis, MN
