How important are showers

Showers have been a general indicator of cleanliness, and we perhaps feel uncomfortable if we haven't bathed in three or four days. Experts have shed some light on the benefits and the drawbacks of showering. Though there is no one-size-fits-all routine, the one thing that most of them agree on is that washing up on a daily basis is not necessary. In fact, it could be harmful to you. (image via thegadgetflow.com) Dermatologist Dr. Elizabeth Bahar Houshmand, M.D., says that bathing daily is more of a social obligation. She adds that could strip away protective natural oils from your skin, leading to problems like dryness and irritation. Dr. Elizabeth says: “The idea of needing to shower daily to maintain personal hygiene is more of a social norm and habit. Regularly taking excessively long showers or baths can strip away natural oils from your skin’s barrier. This can cause dryness and irritation.” The general rule is that you can bathe once every three days, and if your lifestyle calls for more , you can oblige. However, you need to ensure that the products used are not too harsh on the skin. On the other hand, there are some adverse effects of not having a wash that could affect your health and even your social life. While sweat itself has no odor, when mixed with bacteria, it can create some tough smells. The bacteria on your skin accumulates and mixes itself with anything it is exposed to. So if you work out, or generally sweat a lot, it is advised that you bathe often. Other drawbacks include germ accumulation, dead skin build-up, likeliness of fungal, scalp rashes and the likeliness of falling ill if exposed to infectious bacteria.

Rigorous exfoliating and frequent exposure to water can strip the skin layer off its natural oils and healthy bacretia. When this happens, dry and cracked skin allows harmful microbes to enter the system and cause infections. There are some benefits to skipping a bath for a day or two, like saving gallons of water, and saving a lot on hair and hygiene products, and saving the environment from single-use plastic. However, it is generally advised not to skip baths for too long. Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Thank You!
