An experiment conducted by Loughborough University in the UK on 14 adult men showed that just by soaking in warm water at about 40 degrees Celsius for an hour, they can consume 130 calories, equivalent to walking for 30 minutes.

In addition, if you eat after a warm bath, it also affects blood sugar levels, reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes. This is because hot water increases blood circulation, transporting more glucose to muscles and tissues.

The bath water temperature should be maintained at 40-42 degrees Celsius, which can effectively enhance immunity, promote the expansion of blood vessels and eliminate waste in the blood. If the temperature is 36 degrees Celsius, equivalent to body temperature, it can dilate blood vessels, promote blood circulation in the skin, and also have the effect of relieving neuralgia and headache.

In addition, if combined with massage, the effect will be doubled. Therefore, you should use your hands in circular motions to stimulate the legs, buttocks, and abdomen during the bath to promote blood circulation and burn calories.
