AITA for walking out of my baby shower after MIL denied me food?

Regular showers particularly with antibacterial or heavily perfumed soaps can disturb this equilibrium. Overly eliminating beneficial bacteria can heighten the skin’s vulnerability to rashes, irritation, fungal problems, and outbreaks.

This explains why numerous doctors now acknowledge an unforeseen truth: being “too clean” can sometimes weaken the skin’s natural defenses particularly in older individuals.

Increased risk of falls and fatigue

Showering is regarded as a type of physical exercise. It involves crossing a threshold, standing on a flat surface, lifting arms to cleanse, and handling variations in water temperature. For older adults, this may lead to lightheadedness, fatigue, and a higher likelihood of falling.
Falls are one of the leading causes of injuries among older adults, and bathing daily heightens the risk of accidents especially for those with balance issues, arthritis, low blood pressure, or reduced strength. Being clean doesn’t mean you have to shower every day. Here’s the point that surprises many people: staying clean doesn’t require taking a bath every day.
