WATER AND HEALTH / WATER AND CANCER

As long as mankind exists, water was associated with health, wellness and cure.
Now the water in our mains, foods and drinks is more and more associated with cancer and disease.

Trihalomethanes ( THMs ) created as a byproduct of chlorinating water, can be absorbed through the skin in bath, shower and pools.

Trihalomethanes ( THMs ) off course will be absorbed mainly by drinking chlorinated water.

Avoid taking long showers, baths when the water in your mains is chlorinated and avoid extended swimming in public chlorinated pools
or
spend as much time as possible in Myhouseinparadise because it is the only place were you can avoid the carcinogenics and health hazards mentioned above including the ones mentioned in radiation_radioactivity_cancer.html.

Apart form most sound water possible we also feature cleanest air ( Nasa ) and cleanest sea water.
The corner of Brazil (our location) receives the first wind and water that crossed the atlantic Ocean
( fully saturated with healthy negative ions and with the lowest radon concentration on earth ).
We are located on probably the only location were wind always blows and always comes from from the same direction (mondirectional winds).
The wind is also extremely laminated (not turbulent) wich means its takeup of polluants (wich are not present) is minimal.

Further our abundant sun has strong antibacterial effect.

In My House in Paradise mineral water in taps, showers baths is mineral water and is tested bacteria free and not chlorinated
( it is useless to chlorinate total bacteria free mineral water because there is nothing to kill or sterilize ).
( Industry also does not chlorinate bottled mineral water which by the way is not bacteria free ).
THMs are formed when bacteria and chlorinated water act together.

Further no industry nearby, no diesel cars, no commercial vessels closer then 20 km (not allowed).

Fertilizer, insecticides and herbicides : there is no agricultural activity nearby and totally absent in our watershed.
We are located in the middle of a reserve of over 650 ha that is a complete watershed at the same time.

Chlorine and Cancer: What Can a Water Filter Do for You?
By Vanessa Lausch (/?expert=Vanessa_Lausch)

http://ezinearticles.com/?Chlorine-and-Cancer:-What-Can-a-Water-Filter-Do-for-You?&id=23998

Every day, cases of cancer are rising in astounding and unprecedented numbers.
While medical professionals work tirelessly to find a cure for this most deadly of
diseases, the numbers of terminally ill patients continue to climb. Although the
cure for cancer continues to elude medical professionals, it is completely within our
own power to protect our families and ourselves and to reduce our risks whenever
possible.

...

The increase in such protective behaviors clearly indicates an increased interest in
protecting oneself from cancer risks.
Still, droves of people continue to use and
drink unfiltered tap water, not knowing about or not believing in the insidious
nature of this substance.
Whether we like it or not, the water that emerges from our
taps, however pristine it may appear, is filled with carcinogenic compounds.
A simple water filter can now serve as a valuable safeguard against cancer.

Chlorine and Tap Water:
Untreated tap water is filled with such dangerous contaminants as nitrate, arsenic,
microorganisms, and chemicals from pesticide runoff.
Once this water reaches a
municipal treatment plant, many contaminants are removed.
However, one of the
most dangerous contaminants is actually added to drinking water as a part of the
treatment process.

Chlorine, added as an inexpensive and effective drinking water disinfectant, is also a
known poison to the body.
It is certainly no coincidence that chlorine gas was used
with deadly effectiveness as a weapon in the First World War. This gas was known
to severely burn the lungs and other body tissues when inhaled; it is no less
powerful when ingested by mouth. Each day, as we use unfiltered tap water, we are
effectively pouring bleach into our water before we drink it.

This poisonous chemical, accompanied by its byproducts, is now known to cause at
least three types of cancers, among other serious health problems.
The U.S. Council
of Environmental Quality recently released a report stating that the risk of cancer is
93% higher among those drinking chlorinated water than among those not drinking
chlorinated water!
...

Bladder and Rectal Cancer:
Chlorine has long been known to be a leading cause of bladder and rectal cancer.
Once in water, chlorine interacts with organic compounds to create trihalomethanes
(THMs). These THMs are particularly harmful to the body when ingested. When
taken into the body, THMs encourage the production of free radicals.
These free radicals proceed to destroy or damage vital cells in the body. Because so much of
the water we drink ends up in the bladder and/or rectum, ingestions of THMs in
drinking water is particularly damaging to these organs. THMs cause innumerable
cases of bladder and rectal cancer each year.

Bladder and rectal cancer occur when malignant cells, often created by THMs, infect
the inner tissues of the particular organ. Once they have taken hold in the bladder
or rectum, the malignant cells can isolate themselves in the infected area or they
can spread to infect other areas of the body, potentially causing more deadly forms
of cancer. Each year, 13,000 new cases of bladder cancer are diagnosed in women
while 37,000 new cases are diagnosed in men. Of these 50,000 new cases each
year, slightly more than 20% of individuals will die from the disease. For rectal
cancer, more than 40,000 new cases are diagnosed each year and approximately
55% of those individuals diagnosed will die from the disease.

Ironically, one of the best means of protection against these two types of cancer is
drinking plenty of fluids.
However, drinking larger amounts of contaminated water
only exacerbates the risk.

Breast Cancer:
Breast cancer is the newest type of cancer to be connected to ingestion of
chlorinated water.
Breast cancer affects one out of every eight women in the United
States alone, and it kills approximately _ of its victims.

Recent research has linked this deadly cancer to a buildup of chlorine compounds in
the breast tissue.
In a shocking study conducted in Hartford, Connecticut,
researchers found that "women with breast cancer have 50% to 60% higher levels of
organochlorines (chlorination byproducts) in their breast tissue than women without
breast cancer." While chlorine can make its way into our bodies in several ways,
there is no means of access more common or more frequent than the ingestion of
common, unfiltered tap water.

A Simple Solution:
One preventive solution to these three deadly cancers could not be simpler. If
chlorinated drinking water is a leading cause of cancer, then the obvious method of
reducing one's risk of cancer is to refrain from drinking chlorinated water. We
cannot choose whether or not to drink water, but we can choose the type of water
we allow into our bodies.

Municipal water treatment plants add chlorine to water to help make it cleaner and
more pure, but once that chlorine has performed its function, there is certainly no
reason for it to continue its deadly presence in drinking water.
A simple home water filter removes chlorine and its byproducts from drinking water, producing
clean, pure drinking water that can also serve as a useful protection against cancer.
Water filters are one of the only methods of water purification capable of removing
chlorine.
