The concept of bath is more profound than just physical cleansing. It directly influences all cells in the body through effects on the nervous, endocrine, immune, and metabolic systems. While the details are not well studied, bathing improves physical and mental health in ten ways such as improving appearance, energy, strength, purity, longevity, health, willpower, and intelligence. Reciting prayers before bathing helps link us to our culture and history for beneficial psychological effects. Bathing thrice daily may help conditions like diabetes through increased metabolism and blood sugar control.
