How Chlorine Affects Your Body

Chlorine in water
“The risk of developing cancer is 93% higher among people who drink or are exposed to chlorinated water.” —— U.S. Council of Environmental Quality
 

The report published by the U.S. Council of Environmental Quality may overturn public conventional view regarding the chlorine, which is universally and simply considered as an effective means of water disinfection. It seems that there is an association between cancer and chlorinated water. Based on scientific evidence, chlorine added into the water will combine with other compounds to form chlorination byproducts, which is called as Trihalomethanes. Such  chlorination byproducts will produce free radicals in human body, which will further causes cell damage and are believed to be responsible for the majority of cancers in the US (GHC, 2019).
