Description
Chlorine and your Shower "Volatile organics can evaporate from water in a shower or bath."* * from: Is Your Water Safe to Drink? Consumer Reports Books "A long, hot shower can be dangerous. The toxic chemicals are inhaled in high concentrations." -from: Bottom Line; Dr. John Andelman, PhD. "Water is chlorinated to kill microorganisms, but the Chlorine also kills the healthy probiotic bacteria in the intestines." -from: Restoring Your Digestive Health; Jordan S. Rubin, N. MD., PhD. "Avoiding contact with chlorinated water is of the utmost importance. This includes bathing water and drinking water. Chlorine kills bacteria, friendly and unfriendly, in the intestines. it can be absorbed through the skin. I recomend installing a shower filter to remove Chlorine." -from: Patient, Heal Thyself; Jordan S. Rubin, N. MD., PhD. What is the Effect of Chlorine in the Shower? Chlorine is a toxic gas which attackes living cells. It was used during World War I as a chemical warfare agent. It is used today as a additive to drinking water to kill harmful micro-organisms. While this can be an important health benefit, Chlorine itself is far from beneficial: it attacks organic material, such as the skin and skin oils, which dries out the skin and hair. Because Chlorine vaporizes along with the hot water, it is inhaled into the lungs. It is also absorbed into the skin. According to some experts, 5 times more Chlorine enters the body through the skin during a shower than enters through drinking 8 glasses of chlorinated tap water!

Didn't Notice a Difference
I used this shower filter for two years and didn't notice one bit of difference. I am not convinced these work and have since stopped using the product. I do not recommend this product.

Imagination?!?!?!?
I purchased this product a few days ago because most times when I shower, my skin is so itchy afterwards. I figured a shower filter may help. I purchased it at my local health food store and installed it the same day. When I showered that night, I thought that the water felt softer and thought that I was imagining things. As someone who suffers from very dry skin and has to slather body cream on afterwards, I was pleasantly surprised after my shower. I thought that it was my imagination that my skin felt more moisturized and best of all, I wasn't itching!!! I waited for 2 more showers prior to writing this review just to be sure. The enviro shower filter does work!! My husband even noticed a difference too. A product that finally lives up to its claims. A very wise investment indeed!!!

Great filter for the price
I've been using the shower filter for about a month now and i love it! The water no longer smells of chlorine and it seems to be helping my skin not feel as dry. Plus, my hair color still looks great! I would recommend this filter for sure. It's way cheaper than the Jonathan filter and probably just as good and not as bulky.
