Clean water is essential for ensuring the inside of your body stays healthy but have you ever wondered what it can do for the outside? The body is around 60% water, so it goes without saying that drinking plenty of clean water is an essential aspect of staying healthy.

By drinking filtered water in addition to using it in your bath or shower, you’ll be protecting your skin and hair from toxins and chemicals that are known to cause damage over time.

How can unfiltered water be damaging to the skin?

Do you drink the recommended 2 litres of water each day? If not, you may have noticed your skin feeling a little dry or tired throughout the day. The skin is your body’s biggest organ and consists mostly of water, resulting in smooth, stretchy and healthy skin.

It’s important to replenish the skin’s natural water content to ensure a healthy glow and flush out toxins. However, purified water can do an even better job at keeping your skin clear and hydrated as there will be less toxins entering the body.

The quality of your drinking water can play a bigger part than you realise. Depending on your water source, it is possible your water could contain acid rain, pesticides, toxic contaminates or even harmful traces of lead from older pipes.

By installing a high-quality water filter, up to 99% of these impurities can be eliminated, leading to a healthier supply that’s sure to radiate through your skin.

How can avoiding chlorine benefit the hair?

Your hair is made up from 95% protein and 5% water. Chemicals and impurities such as chlorine in your water supply are known to damage proteins by breaking them down, leading to dryness and split ends – attributes it’s best to avoid for healthy looking hair.

In addition to drinking clean, purified water, ensuring your bath or shower water is just as pure can work wonders on the hair. The spa-quality result will ensure softer, smoother hair.

After switching to a filtered water supply, you’re bound to notice an improvement in the health and appearance of your hair and skin.
