Is daily bath necessary?

I want to know if it is necessary to take one’s bath every day. My family members are not happy that I don’t like taking my bath every day.

While a daily shower is fine for most people (especially those who live in hot and dusty environment) for many people, two to three times a week is enough and may be even better to maintain good health.While there is no ideal frequency, experts suggest that showering several times per week may be excessive for most people (unless you are grimy, sweaty, or have other reasons to shower more often). Short showers (lasting three or four minutes) with a focus on the armpits and groin may suffice.
