How can I limit my chlorine exposure in the shower?

Shower Chlorine Filters

The connection between chlorine and cancer has been well documented. Because chlorine is used to treat water for other contaminants, it is present in most all water supplies. Showering in chlorinated water causes the skin to absorb this harmful chemical. Fortunately, there are shower chlorine filters available that can dramatically reduce your exposure to chlorine while in the shower. Because different shower filters target different contaminants, it's important to check the packaging to make sure that you are purchasing a filter that is made for chlorine.
