When it comes to personal hygiene you might be tempted to think that the more you clean and groom yourself, the healthier you will be.

According to doctors, you only need to wash three parts of your body with soap daily: feet, armpits, and groin. It was proven that if you scrub your entire body daily with soap you may be at risk of destroying useful bacteria that help protect you.

Do you know what parts of the body that don’t need that much cleaning are? We studied what most of the medical personnel declared and we made a list of X parts of your body you’re washing way too often.

  1. ZZZzzzzZZZzzzzzz! Quit washing and see a doctor when you develop chronic amped out body odor!

    I am for good hygiene and pass on the doctors. Works for ME!

    This timely advice brought to you by Feral Tomm.

  2. Someone is trying to sell product and doctors/Dentists visits.
    Brush your teeth 3 times a day. Floss and rinse after eating.
    Wash those pits and any body part that smells, or is dirty.
    Some people actually work hard, physically, get covered in dirt and grime and don’t have the luxury of
    staying dirty.
    Amish, however, work hard and wash once per week. Try driving a car load of them somewhere, with the windows closed. OK, Eventually you won’t notice the body odor.

  3. Born in 1950. Pescatarian 55 years. Shower once a week. Natural soap groin and armpits. Strong HOTTEST spray on whole face, head, and back, rubbing with hands till it’s just skin on skin. Strong rubbing bottom of feet and between toes with thick hand cloth. During week, when been hot and sweating, arm pits wiped with wet hand cloth works. Otherwise, never any b/o… not just my opinion.
    Always figured because of lack of animal meats, and mostly organic diet. Results: 25 vials/ over 100 blood work tests are Perfect blood. Heart MRI scan with 0 artery buildup. Specialist stated, “better than most 19 year olds”. My STRONG FAITH in Jesus all my life replacing fear/stress, and with conscious diet is my assumption I’m probably half my age physically. I’m out living almost all my lifelong Friends… and only have one relative left.
    C’est la vie. 🙏🏼✝️😇

  4. Everything on the body smells at some point for whatever reason so if you can smell yourself then other people can too, so wash it. You cant over wash your body unless you have some kind of OCD problem. We have bacteria that grows every day on our body, some of it good and some bad so it is important to clean your body pretty much all over to keep the growth of bacteria from forming and causing illness.

  5. I agree about not washing your hair every day. I have thick hair (lucky 85-year-old lady) and I wash it twice a week. It’s salt and pepper and looks shiny and whiter after a wash.

  6. Oh God I have to wash all over, but I never smell of anything in my groin even if I don’t wash for a few days no smell whatsoever and I’m happy with that…
