why do we need to take a bath?

Answer 1

Well, we need to take one because our bodies sweat and it cleans our pores out. The skin on our bodies exfoliates and dries out, so bathing takes away the dead skin and tissue. Our hair will get greasy if it not washed, so to keep it shiny & clean and strip the dirt off of it we bathe. You nourish your body when you take a shower or bath and you will smell nice & clean.

Answer 2

We don't need to bath.

You could shower or sponge bath instead.

In fact you don't need to bath at all.

North American Indians and Inuit would typically not bath all winter. It was too cold they and they didn't have hot and cold running water.

I worked with an American hippy teacher one year who did not believe in bathing at all. He only had a very slight, human sort of odour.

About 30 years ago a reserach document was widely published. It showed that it is more hygenic not to bath at all -- unless you bath or shower at least once or twice per day.

The reason is when you bath you remove a layer of dead skin along with some bacteria too, of course. However this exposes a vast layer of a new feeding ground of new skin and bacterial numbers quickly start to skyrocket.

However if you don't bath again, bacteria numbers start to decline after about a day or so -- because their is no fresh food for them. They then stabilise at a normal minimal level -- as with the American teacher I mentioned.
