Is it better to start the day feeling refreshed or to wash away the day’s weariness? The answer to this straightforward question separates people into two sizable groups: those who like to take a shower before bed and those who insist on taking one in the morning. Which is healthier, though?
The removal of perspiration, oil, dust, and pollutants from the skin is the primary advantage of showering, according to a survey. You can avoid carrying the day’s grime and germs into bed by taking a nightly shower. However, experts warn that it’s not that easy.
According to microbiologist Primrose Freestone, the body sweats and releases thousands of dead skin cells even when you’re sleeping. If you don’t, the advantages of taking a night shower are diminished because these serve as food for dust mites.
