(Newswire.net — June 5, 2013) Geraldton, Australia — Recent study has shown that putting chlorine in the water used in swimming pools, can trigger and cause many diseases that does, irreparable harm to every ones sports and health.

A study in Cordoba, Spain, revealed that when people submerged in the swimming with high levels of chlorine, their urine, when tested, manifested an increase of halo-acetic acids (HAAs). This substance, a by-product of urine, is found to cause cancer and physical defects at birth. Because of the dangers it poses, the Environment Protection Agency (EPA) has warned people that a small amount of this chemical in one’s drinking water can cause health problems.

Daniel P. Warren, also known as Dr. Kiss, a natural health enthusiast, warns people, especially swimmers, to be cautious when choosing a pool for their exercise or practice. “The danger of chlorinated water has been confirmed many times. Swimmers, who want to engage in their favorite sports and health activities, must take precautionary measures, especially if they want to become professional swimmers.”

In his eBook, Dr. Kiss outlines how athletes, especially swimmers, could expose themselves to health hazards by practicing in swimming pools that are heavily treated with chlorine.

“Some swimming pool operators do not have their facility cleaned frequently. Thinking that chlorine can make the water clean, they liberally pour large quantities of this chemical into the water, making it toxic and dangerous to the sports and health of all users,” he further elaborated.

Several other harmful effects of chlorinated water to sports and health in general have been discovered by scientists. Swimming pools with water that has high chlorine content can give off gases that are by-products of chlorine. These gases are toxic and are known to trigger asthma and other diseases.

“Based on recent findings, inhaling chloroform the gaseous state of chlorine, triggers asthma and other diseases of the respiratory system. Chlorine is also absorbed by the body through the skin. The toxic by-products of chlorine also results in many kinds of cancers such as cancer of the breast, cancer of the lungs, cancer of the intestines and cancer of the stomach.” stressed Dr. Kiss.

The study in Cordoba also revealed that even those who did not swim had urine that had higher than normal HAAs contents. “The water in these pools can easily be swallowed in small amounts and cause an illness. However, even if one has not swallowed, the chemicals enter the body through inhalation and absorption of the toxins through the pores of the skin,” Dr. Kiss further explained.

The book Death by Natural Cause or Premeditated Murder, also contain suggestions on how to avoid the effects of chlorinated water destroying every ones sports and health needs.

“Although almost all pools use chlorine, people who do not like to let chlorinated water affect their health can easily find other alternatives like swimming in the ocean or salt water pools” Dr. Kiss added.
