| Subject: Never Boil The Same Water Twice If You Don't Want To Die Early June 7th 2016, 7:36 am | |
| Have you been boiling the same water in the kettle? If so, better stop this habit as it could put your life at risk.When ordinary water is boiled, the chemical composition of it changes which is typically a good thing as the volatile compounds evaporate and gases dissolve.However, putting the kettle back to reboil the water will make the dangerous substances to accumulate instead of being disposed, thus an increased risk of consuming toxic chemicals.These harmful substances generally include arsenic, nitrates, and fluoride. Various studies have shown a connection between this fluoride and the damaging effects it has on the nervous system and brain.The Damaging Effects Of Reboiled Water1. When nitrates are exposed to high heat, like boiling water, it becomes highly toxic. High temperatures transform nitrates to nitrosamines, which can cause cancer. Nitrates have been linked to diseases like leukemia, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, ovarian, colon, rectal, bladder, stomach, esophageal, pancreatic, and thyroid cancer.2. An accumulation of arsenic over the years may result in arsenic intoxication which has been shown to cause numerous health issues: cancer, cardiovascular disease, neurological issues, infertility, and developmental disorders.3. Fluoride exposure showed damaging effects on neurological and cognitive development in children according to data from Harvard University.You really have to be careful now if you are constantly reusing old water. It’s good to know that it’s not as harmless as you perhaps otherwise thought. | |
