Wow.. will u consider trying it out with all these things u have said about it?

Yeah, why not? The only thing that concerns me is the cancer risk from the smoke baths.

Do they brush their teeth though? Not with clay sha.

They use those sticks that basically turn into a toothbrush when you chew it.

Don't they see 👀 their menstrual period?

They apparently do that thing where they're separated from the tribe while that happens. They use a cloth for hygiene. Don't know what else they do. But some use modern products for that.

Its chewing stick. I used it many times when i was younger, but one will still need water to rinse their mouths afterwards because those sticks sometimes taste bitter and your meals taste bitter after using it.

Thanks for sharing boss.

You don’t want oven baked Kpekus??

Well, oven-baked kpekus doesn't sound like a bad idea but I'm struggling to agree with the imaginations of a smoky and unwashed one😹.

No offence.

So apparently, just like smoking meat prevents decay, the same thing happens when you take a smoke bath. It kills bacteria. It's like using a strong chemical on the body. The body rub they use and the smoke baths use aromatic herbs. And the body rub has antibacterial/antimicrobial properties as well. They not only may have no body odor at all, but they could smell amazing.

In summary..?

What about their men ? Do they bath through this process too?

Obviously it's not gender profiling. It's simply lack of water. Reason why men aren't mentioned here is,women here portray the everyday lifestyle and coping mechanism.

Men equally does same I think or they just don't really care abt sun rays or advanced hygiene.

Are they cursed or something? No human should live that way in 21st century. Even animals migrate from one place to another during dry season or if they don't have enough water to use.

Namibia government should not have allow such barbarism to stay in this era of civilization.
