Studies show that bathing in unstructured or polluted water can cause significant health damage due to various pollutants.
The pollutants in unstructured water, such as bacteria, heavy metals and chemical pollutants, can be absorbed through the skin during bathing.
Although the absorption is not as high as through drinking, it still contributes to the general load of toxins in the body
One of the main concerns is the presence of chemical substances such as chlorine and its by-products, which are used on the road
A rule for disinfecting water
Studies indicate that exposure to these chemicals, especially while bathing in hot water that opens the pores, can lead to skin irritations, breathing problems, and in some cases even long-term risks such as cancer
The reason for this is that inhaling the vapors or absorbing the chemicals through the skin allows them to enter the bloodstream more quickly
Another risk is the presence of heavy metals such as lead or mercury in poorly maintained water systems.
These metals are linked to neurological and developmental problems, especially with prolonged exposure. In addition, water contaminated with microorganisms (such as bacteria or certain protozoa) can cause infections, especially if there are cuts or abrasions on the skin.
The risk increases when bathing in public or poorly maintained water sources
This is why structured water or "living water", which is free of harmful and polluting chemicals, is more recommended for use in the shower. This water restores the energetic structure of natural water like in springs, and is healthier for the skin and general well-being
