chlorine in bath water
This is the last thing I need:
Bath Ball Water Filter
Did you know that you absorb more chlorine from your bath and shower than your drinking water? Medical studies indicate that this can be harmful to your health. If you are filtering your drinking water to get the chlorine out, you should be filtering your shower and bath water as well!

I can hardly take all the things I have to be constantly aware of and concerned about. . it is at the point where if I heartily laugh in the day I think good, that is my daily dose of laughter (since laughing is good for your health.) Everything I eat or drink, things I buy, where I live, my furniture, effing VOC-free paint. . .. everything has to be ever so eco-friendly, healthy, fair trade, is it vegan and cruelty-free?? ARGHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
I was happy about all that. I want to be healthy in this ever increasingly polluted world. But I think that product, a filter for your bath water that costs $71 + change, just broke my brain. (not to mention the replacement filter is $45 :( )
A filter for bath water?? Is that what I need now to feel I am doing the best I can? *many tears*
