That\u2019s probably a good idea, because now scientists are saying that by enjoying a hot bath (or a hot tub) regularly, you could be setting yourself up for significant health benefits.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A Japanese study of 1,300 people with type-2 diabetes found that in addition to relaxing us and, you know, cleaning us, baths may be a vital tool capable of staving off cardiovascular diseases like heart disease, high blood pressure, and type 2 diabetes. How do baths benefit our health?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The study author thinks we may benefit from heat therapy similar to the way we benefit from exercise. Previous studies have suggested that heat stimulation could improve insulin sensitivity and enhance energy expenditure, which also happens during exercise. Bathing also increases blood circulation, body temperature, and the production of nitric oxide, which are all good things.<u><\/u><\/p>\n<p><strong><u>______________________________________________________________________________<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><u>\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><strong><u>\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><u><\/u><\/p>\n<p><strong><u>\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><u>\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><u>WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 7<sup>TH<\/sup> \u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><u>\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Rock star Eddie Van Halen lost his ten-year battle with cancer yesterday.\u00a0 He was 65.\u00a0 He was one of rock&#8217;s greatest innovators on the guitar, as well as the namesake of one of the greatest rock bands.\u00a0 Here he is, in his own words.\u00a0 (From a 2016 Smithsonian\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=yb26D8bBZB8&amp;t=3s\"><strong>interview<\/strong><\/a>.)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><strong><u>NBA FINAL<\/u><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The L.A.
