Water Treatment: How Clean Water Is Secretly Poisoning Us

Wasseraufbereitung: Wie sauberes Wasser uns heimlich vergiftet

Clean drinking water – that sounds reassuring. But did you know that water treatment itself poses invisible dangers? Byproducts such as trihalomethanes (THMs), perchlorates, chlorite, bromate and others are created when disinfectants such as chlorine react with organic substances in the water. These invisible chemicals end up in your drinking water – and in your body.

THMs, one of the most common byproducts, are carcinogenic and can cause liver and kidney damage. Bromate is suspected of promoting cancer and damaging the nervous system. Chlorite impairs oxygen absorption in the blood and is particularly dangerous for infants. Studies have shown that there can be up to 80 micrograms of THMs per liter of drinking water - more than you would think at first glance.

We can absorb several milligrams of these pollutants over the course of a week. Over the course of a year, this adds up to an unimaginable burden on the body. In the long term, there is a risk of serious consequences: hormonal disorders, chronic illnesses and an increased risk of malformations in unborn children.

The invisible danger is real, but you can protect yourself. With Sydros water filters, you can eliminate water treatment byproducts and enjoy pure, healthy water - without compromise.
