Because of the hot weather, RJ takes a bath 3-4 times a day. He fills up a big basin with water (our house is old, no tub in the bathroom) and soaks himself for an hour or two. My mom has influenced him in putting guava leaves extract on his bath water.
You say yuck? Read on because you're wrong.
"Guavas can help improve your skin texture and avoid skin problems more than the best of beauty creams or skin toner gels can do. This is chiefly due to the abundance of astringents in its fruits (more in immature ones) and in leaves. You can benefit from it either by eating the fruits (this help tighten your muscles apart from your skin) or by washing your skin with the decoction of its immature fruits and leaves. It will tone up and tighten the loosened skin. In addition to the astringents, guava is very-very rich in vitamin-A, B, C and potassium which are very good anti oxidants and detoxifiers and keep your skin glowing and free from aging, wrinkles and other disorders."
Guava leaves can also relieve toothache.
