Introduction: It's not just what you drink – it's what you absorb
Most people invest in a quality water purifier for the kitchen – to drink clean, healthy water. But is
Have you ever stopped to think about how much water enters your body not through your mouth but through your skin, lungs, and even hair?
Shamiya's advanced "Sophia" system is designed to meet exactly this need – to provide living, purified, and refined water at every faucet in the house , not just in the kitchen. Why is it so important? Here are all the answers.
How much water does our body absorb through the skin?
H2: The skin breathes, absorbs and affects health
The human skin is a living, active organ. During a hot shower, it absorbs substances dissolved in water – including chlorine, heavy metals, drug residues and fluoride. Studies indicate that:
During a 10-minute shower, the body can absorb between 0.5 and 1 liter of water through the skin and steam.
The absorbed substances spread through the bloodstream and affect vital systems – such as the respiratory system, liver, kidneys, and hormonal system.

Long-term health effects of showering in contaminated water
H2: Chlorine, by-products and chronic diseases
The chlorine added to tap water creates compounds such as THMs (trihalomethanes) that have been linked to liver problems, bladder cancer, hormonal problems, and more.
While showering, we inhale chlorine vapors – which makes the deadly effect even more direct.
💡 Worrying facts:
Children, infants, and people with asthma are especially sensitive to inhaling chlorine.
Dry skin, irritation, dandruff, and hair loss – all can result from shower water that is not purified.

Shower water vs. drinking water – which has more impact?
H2: The quantity is completely different
Average daily drinking: 1.5–2.5 liters. One 10-minute shower: 100 liters of water (this is the water you stay in and even breathe in).
Even if only 1% of water penetrates the skin , that's more than the water we drink. That means:
Even if you drink healthy water, you are exposed to toxins through your skin many times over.
Children and infants: double risk
H2: Sensitive skin, fast effect
Babies and children absorb water through their skin several times more than adults.
Their immune systems are more sensitive, and the effects can be serious – respiratory, skin, and even developmental problems.

What do biohacking experts say?
Is a filter in the kitchen not enough?
No. It's like eating healthy food – but breathing smoke. Bathing affects the health of your skin, breathing, and even sleep.
Are there cosmetic benefits to healthy shower water?
Absolutely. Living water supports supple skin, a healthy scalp, and shiny hair.
