takes a shower every day. and i'm just i'm pretty happy with my skin except i get a few pimples from time to time and. lots of people don't just shower for hygiene reasons but because it makes them feel good. to do should undertake got to have my daily shower not just for hygiene my mood when i'm feeling down. showering gets rid of bacteria and other pathogens does that mean the cleaner we are the less likely we are to get sick. of it found skin is teeming with microbes and most of them are quite beneficial for example some strains of staphylococcus epidermis produce proteins that can protect us against other bacteria which cause disease bacteria and absolutely and. during our experiment will just take one shower a week for 3 weeks. kevin will continue to

shower as usual the doctor will check whether there are any changes on their skin the 1st swab determines the baseline. has lots of stuff in a caucus epidermis bacteria but that's not unusual. kevin's test also showed staphylococcus aureus a common cause of skin infections. day one of lauer's experiment 1st she feeds the baby and then heads off to university. when she returns home she takes care of a few things around the house and works up a sweat. during the test she's not allowed to use commercial soap shampoo or deodorant just natural soap made from palm and coconut oil. and. it's only. been 3 days part 2 hours already becoming uncomfortable. but.

today i felt like giving in then having a shower my skin is starting to feel a bit sticky. kevin says lauer looks and smells ok to him. he always does i think lara believes that she's starting to smell bad but i haven't noticed anything unusual about the way she smells. 'd the. hours even reluctant to go out in public. like it was i was at the bakery this morning and it felt awful. i have the feeling that people were staring at me and the sales assistant sort of looked down on me. a week has gone by sold our a can take her 1st shower by now she started to adjust to the experiment. finally

been stopped asking kevin if i smell bad it all seems normal now. a lot of. the 2nd half of the experiment goes quickly. i'll go to the doctor's office tomorrow to see what shape my skin is and it'll be interesting to see what they find. him and also home. some tests will show how lowery skin responded to 3 weeks without regular showering in a preliminary exam the doctor couldn't find any change in her skin at all now they're waiting for the lab results. we found that she still has the same types of bacteria as she did 3 weeks ago we also found 2 new ones estimator backed off e. and pseudomonas so these are common bacteria in small amounts but during the

experiment they were able to multiply rapidly these bacteria help us to stay healthy. one surprise the new bacteria are also one kevin skin despite the daily showers he got them through normal every day contact the experiment proves that there's no harm any not being squeaky clean. and saying i think i'll cut down a little i won't shower every day or whenever i have an appointment maybe just when i start to smell. we won't get sick just because we behave less after all a little dirt never hurt anyone. ok you want something other than water and send me an e-mail. in good shape for your weekly health. covers many aspects of health care could look at what's new in

medical treatment nutrition fitness and beauty. we discuss these topics in depth with specialists and give you the chance to pose your own questions so do get in touch. some people have an exaggerated fear of water this is called hydrophobia and experts recommend to sit at the edge of a swimming pool or to take some swimming lessons as a family doctor i can say everybody should take swimming lessons. swimming pool is the perfect place to exercise. regardless of whether you do breast stroke crawl or butterfly you're getting a full workout when you swim. you're using almost all your muscles but you're not overtaxing your bones and joints.

when you can but the water supports 90 percent of your weight and release pressure on your joints for another advantage is that water resistance means you have to use a lot more muscles in. another aspect is that the loss of body heat you experience when you're swimming means a lot of energy is consumed so given that you're also moving you're getting a steady moderate workout and if you keep it up for an hour you can burn 302500 calories and. money on him are used to be a competitive swimmer today he teaches adults swimming technique getting this right is crucial. so this is kind that's not breaststroke that's a stroll. this is our. breast stroke is done correctly the face has to go underwater and you breathe out underwater you only raise your head above water and inhale when your arms around stretched in front of you for swimming technique can

actually cause injury. just look at you could develop neck and back problems swimming with your back hollowed puts too much strain on. 70 percent of the effort you're making when you're swimming breast stroke comes from the legs. 30 minutes of breast stroke has the same effect as one hour of cycling it's very good for anyone who has difficulty exercising due to arthritis or obesity . a crawl or freestyle requires more effort and it's the arms that are doing most of the work as they slice through the water. you only lift your head to inhale every 2 strokes. kick the legs from the hip then move them continuously outstretched keeping the body stable it's an ideal work on for the arms shoulders and behind them places little pressure on the hips and knees.

to crawl is great for anyone who has problems with their hips or knees you know putting them under stress because you're moving straight through the water. with crawl your body lies flat and straight in the water which means you're training your intrinsic back muscles in the process. but crawl can be risky for certain people as a cardiologist explains. all this and anyone who's had a recent bypass surgery on hot surgery should be careful because every time you lift your arms in this position you're putting pressure on the breast exam and. once you've recovered from surgery you can start swimming crawl or even butterfly without having to worry. breathing in and out steadily also strengthens the respiratory musculature and swimming improves blood flow and blood pressure.

and. backstroke is also very healthy it looks like one of the easiest strokes but it's also easy to do it wrong it's important that your body lies as flat on the surface as possible using your arms and kicking your legs the same way you do with a crawl since your face out of the water breathing is much easier. backstroke is very good for anyone with back problems it takes pressure off the spine but gets all the muscles that supported working. according to the experts there are some common mistakes. one of the main mistakes is incorrect positioning in the water if you're not lying flat you're just

slumped there in the water another problem is trying to look where you're going but that means you overextend then you start to feel exhausted. and the instinct. as with most sports practice makes perfect so as long as you're doing it properly swimming is good for stamina and you're unlikely to sustain any injuries. you just need to be careful if you have a heart problem. but there seem to be able swimming helps the blood to return to the heart and the next patient who struggles to pump blood will sink. then life. the cardiologist also says there's no. need to overdo it rather than spending an hour doing nonstop laps she advises beginners to start by swimming for 10 minutes taking a break then doing it again for a total of 6 times if you want to avoid getting water in your eyes or ears then

we're swimming goggles and a bathing cap and you may enjoy the experience of being immersed in water even more . what a great spot but be aware don't swim out too far because you don't want to miss the next edition in good shape so you're.
