Bathing or cleaning the body after the activity at least twice a day, seems to have become a mandatory thing to do. In addition to keeping the body clean, bath also makes the body back fresh and fragrant.
Moreover, the people of Indonesia or Asia still make water as a medium to clean the body. So what if someone is lazy to take a shower every day? Probably most people will say it is dirty and smelly. However, according to the latest scientific studies, rarely bathing is good for the health of the body. How come?
A scientific study was conducted on the primitive Yanomami tribe in the interior of the Amazon jungle. Known, the tribe is rarely in contact with water for bathing. The reason is to protect themselves from the threat of "predators", be it other enemy tribes and wild animals that inhabit the river, as quoted from the page iflscience.com.
Uniquely, it even makes the skin Yanomami tribe people have a high bacterial complexity, so as to be a natural antibiotic for their bodies. Their bodies became more immune to the virus attack of the disease.
Soap Reduces Skin Moisture
When viewed in terms of scientific, bacterial complexity is a collection of micro-biome is important to support the smooth immune system, digestion, and liver function.
If the complexity of these bacteria is reduced, the body's defense system will be susceptible to virus attack, especially in humid tropical climates, where virulent bacteria are able to multiply rapidly.
It is not mentioned that rarely bathing will actually have a good effect on the health of the body, although scientifically proven good for skin health. Skin moisture will be well preserved if bathing is done regularly, most often once a day. Chemical exposure to soap is at risk of reducing the skin's moisture levels if used too often, and this is what many people often complain about after bathing.
