2.Taking a bath – with health and beauty benefits

It is known that Queen Cleopatra preserved her beauty by bathing in the milk of 700 donkeys, and Winston Churchill, a statesman and politician of Great Britain, took two hot baths a day to relieve tension. Today, bathing in an aroma fragrant bath is a real luxury for a busy person.

The effectiveness of baths in the fight against insomnia, muscle pain, circulatory disorders has long been proven by science. And baths with useful "additives" like therapeutic mud, mineral salts, essential oils, algae are doubly useful: they can not only improve your sleep or relieve muscle tension, but also affect hormonal imbalance during menopause, strengthen immunity, reduce weight or help to get rid of different skin problems.

The health benefits of baths

Studies have shown that taking baths significantly reduces blood pressure and reduces the risk of stroke, which is very important for people with hypertension. Baths also improve vision and have a beneficial effect on kidney health.

A warm bath is something like a good workout for the heart: it makes it work faster, thereby improving blood circulation and increasing sweating. And sweat, as you know, helps to remove toxins, viruses and bacteria from the body.

A warm bath warms inflamed muscles, blocks pain receptors and relieves pain. A cold bath after exercise reduces the level of lactic acid, which allows you to quickly restore muscles.

Research in The University of Wolverhampton has shown that taking a bath daily, usually at the end of the day, significantly improves mood, reduces stress and anxiety.

The best way to reduce inflammation in the pharynx,remove phlegm when coughing is to breathe over steam. The study also showed that an elevated body temperature during a cold can help the immune system work more efficiently, protecting us from infections and viruses.

Baths are especially useful not only for muscle pain, but also for rheumatism, since the effect on the joints is reduced in water.

A good night's sleep is closely related to everything that happens in our body: from how much we weigh, how we feel, how quickly we recover, etc. A warm bath before going to bed, as you know, helps to relax and fall asleep faster. Just do not go to bed immediately after the procedure, otherwise you can achieve the opposite effect.

4. The main mistakes of body care

Not only the skin of the face needs daily cleansing and moisturizing, but also body skin. Improper body care is the cause of dermatological diseases, dryness, hypersensitivity and other problems. Now you will learn about the main errors and ways to fix them.

Frequent water treatments

According to a survey by Euromonitor International, people take a shower using gel or soap from 6 to 12 times a week. The composition of detergents includes foaming substances — lauryl sulfate and sodium laureth sulfate. When washing with them more than 1 time a day, the protective layer of the skin is damaged, dryness and irritation appear.

Before the water is supplied to the houses, it undergoes additional treatment. It is cleaned with sand filters and disinfected with sodium hypochlorite with an ammonia-containing reagent. As it passes through the pipes, it accumulates calcium and magnesium salts and becomes rigid. A study by scientists at King's College London confirmed that bathing in such water is a risk factor for dermatitis.

The American Association of Dermatologists says: to maintain hygiene, you need to take a shower with gel 2 times a week. The exception is hot weather and physical activity. The rest of the days — wash with water only or very tender and moisturizing foam.

"With frequent contact with hot water and aggressive shower products, the protective layer is washed off faster. The skin loses its barrier properties and becomes vulnerable to bacteria. Very hot water is a stress for the skin,"

Lack of a shower after a workout

Exercise and physical activity increase body temperature. Sweating is a therm regulation mechanism that cools the skin. In hot weather, from 1 to 5 liters of liquid evaporates from the surface of the body. The composition of sweat includes products of mineral metabolism, phosphates, ammonia, uric acid, chlorides and calcium salts. They irritate the skin and cause a rash.

Not taking a shower after training leads to the appearance of different skin problems. This dermatological disease is caused by yeast-like fungi that multiply with profuse sweating. The pathogen disrupts the work of pigment cells , and brown-red spots appear on the skin.

"A couple of minutes is enough for the sweat to dry and clog the upper layer of the skin — an environment for the reproduction of bacteria is created. This causes inflammation of the hair follicle. Especially if you haven't changed your clothes and went home in sportswear. Even if you live near the gym, take a shower immediately after training."

Insufficient hydration

The skin contains 64% water. Irritation, dryness, peeling and micro cracks are signs of moisture deficiency. Creams and lotions are used to moisturize the skin of the body after a shower. They consist of a base — lanolin or Vaseline, and additives — plant extracts, hyaluronic acid, perfumes, animal components.

Regular hydration restores the protective layer and maintains the composition of normal micro flora. Local skin immunity works, the risk of eczema, dermatitis and fungal diseases decreases.

"It is better to take a shower with pharmacy brand gels that
