Can someone comment on the effect of chlorinated town water on gut microbes? Would treated water have an affect as opposed to consuming rain or bore water?

- rmetzler 4y agoMy understanding is that the amount of chlorine added to the tap water differs between regions. I read it can be a lot in the US. Here in Germany there is a limit by law of 0.3mg per liter and most districts use between 0.03mg and 0.05mg per liter. We drink tap water daily. There is no noticeable chlorine smell but I heard from friends their cat seems to not like it and drinks rainwater only.
- mjsweet 4y agoI live in Australia, I would say most people would drink tap water at home. We have a sink top filter that filters water, so we use that. I don’t think drinking tap water in this part of the world is abnormal, on the contrary. Out of curiosity, where are you from?
