What is Chlorine?

​

Chlorine is a naturally occurring element; symbol CI, atomic number 17 on the periodic table.  It’s a very dangerous toxin that has many uses, from disinfecting to bleaching.  In small quantities, liquid and gas forms can be poisonous.  In its gas form, chlorine is a pale green color and has a smelly odor and makes your breathing labored.  In its solid form, it’s more of a yellow green color.  It is abundant in nature in its chloride ion form found in many of the salts that are in the earth.  Many animals, including humans need chlorine but there is a limit to what we can physically tolerate.

How Am I Exposed to Chlorine?

​

Even taking a long bath or shower increased

a person’s risk for chlorine exposure because

chlorine can enter the body through skin

absorption or through the eyes, nose, and ears. 

Chlorine has also been used to disinfect our

drinking water because it controls the

growth of such unwelcome bacteria as

E-coli and Giardia.  However, you have to take

precautions even when showering or drinking

tap water.

​

3 Common Sources of Chlorine

Exposure

​

1. Absorption through skin from water and 

        from the air

1. Drinking & Eating

2. Breathing in the fumes that chlorine can

​

It should be noted that the dangers of chlorine exposure also exist for people who do not normally swim, but instead choose to sit by the pool sunbathing or socializing.  According to a Belgian study that was released in 2003, certain irritants called trichloramines are released any time chlorinated water reacts with organic materials (such as sweat or urine) from people.3    Trichloramines are believed to initiate a biological process that effectively destroys the cellular barriers surrounding the lungs.

 

Chlorine, Cancer, and Heart Disease

​

“We are quite convinced, based on this study, that there is an association between cancer and chlorinated water.” – Medical College of Wisconsin research team.

​

Dr. Joseph Price wrote a highly controversial book in the late sixties titled Coronaries/Cholesterol/ Chlorine and concluded that nothing can negate the incontrovertible fact, the basic cause of atherosclerosis and resulting entities such as heart attacks and stroke is chlorine.”

​

Simply stated chlorine is a pesticide, as defined by the U.S. EPA, whose sole purpose is to kill living organisms.
