Swimming

PUK
Here is a question, I love to go swimming as part of my new ever increasing
fitness regime, but what I have noticed about one particular pool is that
the next day I feel and look pretty rough, an irritated nose is one this
but general malaise is of more concern. I found out that the pool I use has
a new filtration system that relies on the water being dosed up with copper
and various minerals, probably getting on for nano sizes ? I wonder if
the water is reacting with my large amalgam filling or just generally
overdosing me with the latter plus the voltage of the water in general. If I only
stay for 30mins I am best but for 1hr I really feel the effects next day ?
The pool water system is known as Poolsan I think

If it uses copper you might want to balance with zinc somehow...
but this is just theoretical, so be careful. Maybe also some ALA
or RLA would help.

The chemicals they put in swimming pools are pretty unhealthy, so
it might be more than just copper.

I've long suspected copper toxicity in my own case, just based
on my symptoms and sensitivities. Lab tests haven't backed
that up, but heavy metal lab tests are known to be wrong.

Supplementing with zinc or molybdenum might be helpful for copper
toxicity, also if you are sensitive to the chlorine in the pool,
I think taurine is supposed to be good for that.

P.S. if you're really lucky, you might have a local pool
sterilized by ozone or a natural salt-water pool.
