In the current situation, in order to control the spread of the pandemic, we must make every effort to maintain our body's health, and one simple way is by practicing personal hygiene, such as washing hands, wearing masks, and taking a shower after activities outside, as part of our efforts to prevent the spread of the pandemic.

Bathing has indeed become a fundamental need for daily activities. In our country, bathing has become a habit, but did you know? Taking a shower with a specific water temperature and under certain conditions can have different effects on your body.

Showering with Cold

aking a cold shower can indeed make your body feel refreshed in hot weather, but under certain conditions, cold showers can pose various risks. Try to avoid the following risks when you take a cold shower.

• The blood vessels constrict. Many studies have proven that taking a cold shower can cause constriction of blood vessels. If not promptly addressed, blood flow to vital organs such as the heart and brain can become blocked. If vital organs do not receive an adequate supply of oxygen-rich blood, the consequences can be fatal.

• Hypothermia. It is advisable not to take a shower with water that is too cold, especially if the surrounding temperature is already cold. This risk increases if you take a cold shower for a prolonged period of time. Your body temperature is at risk of dropping suddenly and it becomes difficult to rise again. This can lead to hypothermia and weakened pulse.

In the current situation, in order to reduce the spread of the pandemic, it is better to avoid taking risks by frequently taking cold showers. In some areas, the rainfall is still high, and if our body condition starts to decline due to the intensity of activities and the weather, our body becomes more susceptible to various illnesses, including the threat of the ongoing pandemic.

Showering with Warm Water

Feeling lazy to take a shower because it's cold? Now you don't have to worry anymore, because warm water can be your savior. Besides keeping you warm, warm water also offers several benefits.

• Detoxifying the body. In addition to warding off the cold, bathing with warm water can also help eliminate toxins from the body. This is because warm water can enhance circulation in the lymphatic system within our bodies, allowing toxins and bacteria to be flushed out.
