Good questions:

So the heat causes a chemical reaction that produces chlorine
Nacl plus heat to cl, hum?



No, not heat, electrolysis (Google it) splits H2O water into H+(Hydrogen) and OH-(Hydroxyl anion) and H2 and O2 gas are generated at the elctrodes, and the CL-(chloride) from the Na+ (sodium) of table salt/sea salt we eat, known as Sodium Chloride. Also Na+OCl- or NaOCl are generated, know as house hold bleach, or Sodium Hypochlorite.

"Chlorine is produced by passing an electric current through a solution of brine (common salt dissolved in water). This process is called electrolysis. The chemical term for salt is sodium chloride (NaCl). Essential co-products are caustic soda (sodium hydroxide or NaOH) and hydrogen (H2).Oct 23, 2017
Euro Chlor - How is chlorine produced?"

Are you a chemist?



Yes, a Bio-Chemical-Engineer with electro-chemical experience and patents.


Wow, chlorine can be made via electrolysis of sodium chloride solution.



Yes. Dow chemical made its first fortune in WWII on the Gulf Coast mining sea water to make Hydrogen, Oxygen, Chlorine gas, Sodium Hydroxide, Hydrochloric acid, and Sodium Hydroxide, and magnesium (chloride) using massive electro-chemical reactors. The Sodium Hydroxide and Chlorine are made with what is called the Chlor-Alkali process.


Can something be natural if it has chemicals?



Yes, in fact it can not exist with out chemicals.

Plutonium, the man made element, is a rare example of what might be safely called not-natural.

"Chemical free", "organic" and "all natural" have become marking buzz words to blow smoke up the consumers asses to sell chemical stuff to paranoid buyers.

Cyanide is also natural, naturally occurring in Cheri Pits.

Cobra venom is all natural too. But I do not recommend a steady diet of it? LOL. It is however now on sale at Walmart as a rub on Homepathic pain killer called Venodol.

Pathogenic bacteria are also natural, naturally occurring. But just like inhaling a few gallons of water (dhmo) they can be deadly.
