Side Effects
of Water Treatment
Unfortunately
water treatment has its side effects due to chlorine
application. Chlorine itself has been generally known to
harm people and nobody sure how bad chlorine can act.
This page, http://www.gas detection.com/TECH/cl2.html
explains effects of chlorine to health. Someone may say
boiling is the best way to vanish the chlorine, but
actually boiling will produce Trihalomethanes (TTHM)
that has horrify effects to our body. (refer

Besides,
water that goes trough water treatment still contains
heavy metals which can cause:

breath, eye, and heart.) |
