Were ancient Chinese people dirty? Was it unhygienic for ancient people?

Although it is not as developed as we are in modern times, it is still possible to keep the body clean, such as cleaning teeth with salt, salt has the effect of anti-inflammatory and sterilization, like some toothpastes now? When you take a bath, you will put flower petals, which can keep your skin moisturized and make **fragrant, and some girls will also make sachets.

With it on the body, the hair will be used like soap.

Wash your hair, and there are people like He Shou Wu.

Sesame seeds and other hair care products, do you want to say that the toiletries on the market are good? Not really, there are a lot of chemical ingredients added to it, like the last overlord shampoo incident, didn't it make a fuss? If you want me to say, it's not as good as the ancient pure natural Dongdong.

Silly Frog works for you:

On the contrary, the ancients loved to be clean.

There was no toothpaste, toothbrushes, and the ancients rinsed their mouths with salt or whatever.

There are plant-based soaps such as soap horns for bathing.

In ancient times, people washed every day, and they were more particular than now, bathing with incense, and wearing sachets, herbs, and so on.

The kind of situation we understand is when the people in the Yuan Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty were still in trouble. China's Han, Tang, Song and Ming dynasties were all developed countries, and the people's living standards were very high, even better than now.

Small data, the GDP of the Song Dynasty accounted for 80% of the world at that time, and the income of a janitor was equivalent to that of a lord in the West. It's almost the United States now).

Actually, it's not that the ancients were more particular about their clothes than the modern ones, and they had to smoke incense. Flower petals for bathing. In the past, people seemed to use soaphorn and other natural things, but now it's more convenient, so we're not familiar with the use of some natural plants.

Yes, people all over the world were dirty in ancient times, not just China.

The ancients said that they should always wipe diligently, and do not stain the dust.

Normal people don't have toothbrushes and gargles, and their hair has to be taken care of every day. Every day, if you don't say that you will take a bath, at least you will soak your feet.

If you are so poor that you can't even open the pot, then who cares if you brush your teeth and wash your face.

What about you, dirty enough? In the future, people will run the sauna every day, do you have it? Eat energy all day, don't eat, still grow, and the food bacteria never enter the body, what about you?

The ancients certainly didn't live very well, not very hygienic, because the ancients didn't have the kind of now, first of all, they first established a garbage collection and transportation system, and then they were, and then after collecting, how to deal with it, he had no way, there was no way, so it was all absorbed by nature, so it caused the surrounding environment to be relatively bad.

There are alternatives like soaphorn.

But the sanitary conditions are indeed very poor, even in modern times, the city of Beiping is full of garbage and feces.

Not even in ancient times, when I was a child, there were lice on my head in the countryside (I don't know in the city, I guess it's better).

It is estimated that the sanitary conditions of the rich and noble will be much better, and the ordinary people will inevitably be very poor. After all, in ancient times, there were not many days when you could eat enough, and there was no talk of hygiene.

Mandarin people do not pay attention to hygiene, but dignitaries and nobles pay attention to hygiene.

In ancient times, people did not have toothbrushes, but they were similar to toothbrushes, and there were soap horns for bathing and washing hair. Maybe it's better than we sometimes do.

In fact, the ancient people were very hygienic.

The ancients also had their own standards of hygiene, which were not very unhygienic, but based on their hygiene standards.

Ancient people may have been cleaner than you, and people ate inorganic vegetables and fish, which were not polluted at that time. Rich people don't have to work, especially women who take a bath or something when they have nothing to do.

**There are people who don't like to be clean, and there are also in ancient times.

Of course, it is not as clean as modern people, but in ancient times, there was no environmental pollution, and it could be washed by going down to the river.

The ancients bathed in the most ancient record of the Zhou ceremony: "The witch cleansed the bath when she was in charge." In other words, during the Zhou Dynasty, bathing was regarded as a kind of witchcraft to remove diseases.

At that time, bathing was a national health activity, and it was chosen to be on the first day of the spring moon (that is, the first day, the snake day). Maybe it's a psychological implication that I want to be like a snake and shed my old skin and put on new clothes. On the day of the snake, the officials and the people are clean on the east flowing water, washing and purifying themselves, and removing the sickness is the ...... of great cleansingThe side bath is also said to bathe with incense herbs.

This custom was used from the Zhou Dynasty to the Han Dynasty, and it was stipulated that on the first day of the spring season, the hundred officials and the people must bathe in the eastward section of the river to wash away the dirt, and after going ashore, they must also bathe with the herbs cooked by the witch. In the Wei and Jin dynasties, it was stipulated that washing should be done every three days, but it was no longer mandatory to wash on the day of Jichun, and the number of baths was increased, which also had the significance of health care, and also had a certain significance in psychological safety.

Maybe, I always feel that the technology of the ancients is beyond the reach of modern people.
