Question

consider this claim: most people should not bathe or shower every single day. which piece of evidence better supports this claim? evidence a: an article in a medical journal questions the wisdom of taking only hot showers and instead advocates for cold showers. the article points out numerous benefits of cold showers, including increasing brain activity and reducing stress. evidence b: a cleveland clinic doctor who specializes in skin conditions recommends showering every two or three days. more than that, she warns, can strip the average persons body of its protective oils and cause itchy, dry skin.

Explanation:

The claim is that most people should not bathe or shower daily. Evidence A is about the benefits of cold - showers and questioning hot - showers, not directly related to the frequency of showering. Evidence B from a doctor specializing in skin conditions directly addresses the negative impact of daily showering on the skin's protective oils, thus supporting the claim.

Answer:

Evidence B
