It is healthy to take cold bath. People take hot baths only without realising the healthy reasons of cold bath. Are you one caring for health taking cold bath?

i don't use hot or cold water neither do i use mix shower but i use normal water to bath. in my own opinion, hot water is not the best neither is cold water. but in some certain condition maybe, on health ground, warm water at a reasonable temperature may be used

According to the theory that the blood vessels or the capillaries of body will be constricted as they contact with any cold stimulating materials at the beginning then expand soon.This will make the blood flow fluently or smoothly thus prevent the block in the blood vessels which is the main cause of the heart attack.
Moreover,if the body is used to be contacted with the cold things,it will be resisted to them.Once the weather changed suddenly the common cold may be prevented.
In my experience,I felt well after taking the shower with cold water every night.But I can't insist it in winter.

I tried once to take a cold bath and that was only because we had run out of gas for the house and I needed to take a bath. I will never do it again, unless it is the summer time and it is too hot out.

I can't stand taking cold baths unfortunately...it's too freezing and doesn't feel nice. So, I'll stick with hot baths even though they don't provide any health benefits.

I can take cold bath and i usually do. And i agree with you that there is some healthy (scientifically) explaination behind it. I once read (i am so sorry i didn't put any references here) that someone who takes cold bath early in the morning can avoid obesity or at least help to maintain his/her weight.
