Don't mess around in the shower...


Living in California is a benefit that we pay big bucks for. Although our cost of living is high, this doesn't guarantee us a healthy environment. Our bodies are comprised of 72% water. The water we drink is incredibly important (tomorrow's post will be on drinking water). So is the water we bath/shower in. Your skin is a membrane that water is capable of crossing. What you soak in is absorbed into your body!

Being that Southern California is at the end of the road for water, we get the highest level of contaminants in the US. We also have water that is treated 100's of times over. What this means is we are bathing in water loaded with chemicals and crap (technical term).

Without question, change your shower heads! Make sure you get one that filters chlorine and aluminum. Both of which are neurotoxins. If you have more questions on what to buy feel free to email or post your questions.
