take a shower
Today, daily showering is an elementary component of personal hygiene for many people in Germany, but until the 20th century, only a weekly bathing day was the norm and few households had a separate shower. Originally, showers were primarily designed to wash a larger number of people in a short time, and they were used, for example, in the military or in jails. In Germany, in principle, every apartment has its own shower. However, frequent showering also has disadvantages for the skin and dermatologists warn against affecting the skin flora. A US scientist who claims to have showered for more than 12 years and reported significant benefits to his skin attracted attention.
In the opinion of dermatologists, a complete avoidance of showering is exaggerated, but especially people with sensitive skin are often advised to take a shower every two days and to use ph-neutral detergents. Special variants of the shower, such as sogeannte alternating showers, can also be used for therapeutic purposes. (Fp)
