For a healthy and happy life you must get an education, find
a partner, earn lots of money and wash everyday, right? Wrong! Well, the first
three maybe but the latter is scientifically bad for you.
Yes, although it is encouraged by your family and piers from
day one, it is actually better for your body to give a shower a miss from time
to time; it could potentially lose you friends, but on the other hand it is
healthy, here’s why…
Bathing daily scrubs off a protective layer called ‘horny’
(this blog is not a joke or lie). The horny layer protects our living cells,
and by getting rid of it, you increase the risk of disease; we say disease but
it’s probably mainly acne; which is also not cool.
Here’s for the worst part, showering does not actually get
rid of bacteria, it simply moves the little guys around so you may end up with
bacteria from let’s say a ‘less heavenly’ part of your body on your hand or better
yet, your face.
We’re not saying resort to one shower a week because it’s
socially unacceptable, will lose you friends, and possibly get you beaten up:
but, once or twice a week you need to give your skin a rest from constant
vigorous showering.
A great way to preserve your horny layer is to use only a
small amount of soap when showering, using moisturiser and air drying yourself
rather then rubbing with a towel. Yes, swanning around your house naked in
front of the neighbors or housemates may be frowned upon, but at least you’ll
be safe in the knowledge that your beloved skin is forever horny!
