Don't take a bath with water that is too hot, you know?

When it comes to night, after a day of work, my body wants to take a hot bath to relax. What a wonderful thing that is! But some people don’t know that taking a bath with too hot water is also wrong. So let’s see what the experts say. In terms of skin protection, people should not take a bath too often. It is best to take a bath once a day or once every two days. Otherwise, the skin's protective layer will be damaged and the skin will be more susceptible to bacterial infection. Therefore, hygiene should be maintained in moderation.

1. Do not clean your skin excessively. It is best to take a bath once every two days.

2. Don’t take a bath with overheated water. If we use hotter water when taking a bath, our skin will become drier, causing redness and even peeling, which is not conducive to adapting to climate changes.

3. Don’t scrub your body when taking a bath:

The surface of the skin is usually covered with an acidic protective film and stratum corneum formed by secretions from sebaceous glands, sweat glands and desquamated epithelial cells. It is only 0.1 mm thick and weakly acidic, but it is the first line of defense to prevent germs and harmful rays from invading the human body. This layer of "dead skin" is replaced slowly, and the fastest one takes more than ten days.

If you rub your skin repeatedly and vigorously with a towel while taking a bath, it can easily damage the skin and cause excessive shedding of the keratinized layer of the epidermis. The skin will become dry and even itchy. It will also allow bacteria and harmful rays to enter, making people susceptible to various skin diseases such as folliculitis and furunculosis.

Friends who like taking baths have a few things to pay attention to. For example, taking a hot bath right after a meal will cause blood to continuously concentrate on the skin, which will affect the functioning of the digestive organs. After doing intense exercise, it is best to wait until the body relaxes before taking a bath.

After learning about some taboos in bathing, I hope everyone can develop better living habits and learn more about the neglected areas in daily life. Also develop good living habits for yourself and your family. Especially for men, if they often use overheated bath water to take a bath, it will lead to a decrease in sperm motility and have a great impact on sperm quality.
