For most of us, showering is part of our daily routine. We do it almost automatically — after waking, before a meal, or as a way to unwind before bed. But what if we told you that choosing the wrong time to shower could quietly increase your risk of heart problems, falls, and even life-threatening events?
It’s not an exaggeration. Recent health reports and medical findings show that the timing of your shower matters — especially for older adults. A seemingly harmless decision, like hopping in the shower too soon after waking up or right after a meal, could put real strain on your heart, circulatory system, and balance.
