MX IN WATER. "Although the concentration of MX in drinking water is typically 100- to 1000-fold lower than other common byproducts of water chlorination such as trihalomethanes, MX might play a role in the increased cancer risks that have been associated with the consumption of chlorinated water because of its potency in inducing DNA damage." http://lnkd.in/dZfj7fA View in LinkedIn

MUTAGEN X (MX) CARCINOGEN. "They determined that natural organic substances originating from foods, including fruits, soy, and green or black tea, react negatively when tap water is chlorinated, forming dangerous cancer causing compounds. These deadly compounds have been named MX, which stands for "unknown mutagen". http://www.janethull.com/newsletter/0705/nutrients-combined-with-chlorine.php View in LinkedIn

MX FORMED BY CHLORINE ON FOODS. "They determined that natural organic substances originating from foods, including fruits, soy, and green or black tea, react when tap water is chlorinated, forming dangerous cancer causing compounds. These deadly compounds have been named MX, which stands for "unknown mutagen", and are similar to the already well-known ... THMs (trihalomethanes)." http://lnkd.in/d_DzUFA View in LinkedIn

FOOD AND CHLORINE. "When consumed or combined with chlorinated tap water, some of nature's most valuable and essential anti-cancer and anti-disease phytochemical nutrients commonly found in food have been discovered to form deadly cancer causing substances." http://www.janethull.com/newsletter/0705/nutrients-combined-with-chlorine.php View in LinkedIn

SUMMARY OF TOX STUDIES but without references, showing again mostly acute, short-term studies have been relied upon and there are many substantial gaps in the data, http://lnkd.in/dSrkQu8 View in LinkedIn

ANIMAL STUDIES of 90-360 days with chlorinated water to support the use of chlorine disinfection of chicken carcasses are completely meaningless, and clearly an industry sponsored defense document. Poultry chilled with 50 ppm chlorinated water "only accounts for 0.1 - 3% of the exposure" to DBPs. A spurious conclusion by the National Chicken Council. http://lnkd.in/djKUYmU View in LinkedIn

VAPOR COMPRESSION DISTILLATION."The refrigerator-sized Slingshot is capable of taking “anything wet," ... and transforming it into water that is so pure that it can be both consumed and used in sterile injections. It can convert ocean water, polluted water, or raw sewage from an outhouse into pure drinking water." http://lnkd.in/dmJsDZ4 View in LinkedIn

EPA ON CHLORINE EPIDEMIOLOGY. "No information is available on the carcinogenic effects of chlorine in humans from inhalation exposure. A ?.. study showed no evidence of carcinogenic activity in male rats or male and female mice, and equivocal evidence in female rats, from ingestion of chlorinated water. EPA has not classified chlorine for potential carcinogenicity." http://lnkd.in/d_9YNTN View in LinkedIn

SOME PURIFICATION INNOVATIONS target the end user for water treatments, in a clear effort to bypass the water provider monopoly. This strategy makes great sense given the probably unsolvable problems of the crumbling water distribution infrastructure. It potentially reverses consumer paralysis, and empowers the consumer to make their own choices. View in LinkedIn

HIGH DOSE SHORT TERM STUDIES of chlorine ingestion are completely meaningless for slowly emerging conditions like cancer. The literature is remarkably silent on meaningful studies of the long term effects of drinking chlorinated water, and the reactions of chlorine with gut proteins derived from foods. View in LinkedIn
