Environmental health experts warned too much swimming or even bathe too frequently can increase the risk of developing bladder cancer.
Carcinogenic compounds called trihalomethanes (THMs), created as a byproduct of water containing chlorine, can be absorbed through the skin.
People who regularly swim in a pool containing chlorine or bathing too often can put themselves at risk of getting cancer.
Dr. Gemma Castano-Vinyals, from the Centre for Research in Environmental Epidemiology (CREAL) Castilla la Mancha do, Spain, said the effect of eliminating the benefits of "pure" drinking bottled mineral water free of TCM that does not contain chlorine.
"People with a lot of money and education are more likely to think that they reduce the risk of exposure to water contaminated with drinking water in a bottle," said Castano-Vinyal, as quoted by the Daily Mail.
However, although it seems clean and exercise more, as a result of a bath more often and longer, and use the pool more often, they actually increase the risk of THM exposure. "
However, he said the additional risk of developing bladder cancer by absorbing THMs are "small".
He and his colleagues look for exposure to THMs in 1270 people in Spain. The results appear online in BioMed Central
