6 Surprising Ways to Avoid Germs
--Louis Hart
“
Wash Your Hands!” I can still hear my Mom’s sage words echoing
in my ears every time I sit down to the dinner table, sneeze or return
from taking out the trash.
But it wasn’t until much later on in life I came to realize how important
Mom’s advice really was to maintaining overall good health and wellbeing.
According to The United States Centers of Disease Control and Prevention, “Hand
washing is the single most important means of preventing the spread of
infection.”
Basically what happens is your hands come in to contact with a virus – most
of which can live for up to 3 hours on just about any surface. Then you
touch your eyes, nose, ears or mouth and bang - you’re infected!
And we’re not just talking about the common cold here either – everything
from the flu to gastrointestinal infections. Even food born illnesses like
Salmonella and the dreaded E. coli bacteria can be spread through direct
hand to hand contact.
While it is true that many colds and viruses can be transmitted though
the air via coughing and sneezing – you’re still much more
likely to contract a serious illness through direct physical contact.

With that being said - today I thought we’d discuss 6 of the most
common yet surprising places you can come into contact with these sneaky
bugs – and after reading some of them you just might decide you haven’t
been washing your hands nearly as often as you should be.
1) Shopping Cart Handles: They can harbor millions of germs – so
many in fact that many supermarket chains now offer anti-bacterial wipes
in their cart pick-up areas so you can wipe down the handles. Take advantage!
2) The Kitchen Sink: It houses more germs on average than anyplace in your
home. Surprised? Well don’t be – your kitchen sink, cutting
boards, sponges even your dish cloths contain more disgusting germs than
your average toilet seat.
3) Elevator Buttons: You’ve heard me tell you to take the stairs
before – well here’s one more valuable reason. Because elevator
buttons – especially the ones on the first floor can harbor more
germs than a garbage can. If you can – let somebody else push it.
4) Dirty Desk: It’s hard for some to believe but your typical office
desk harbors about 400 times the amount of germs and bacteria as your home
toilet seat! The most notorious offenders are your phone, mouse and computer
keyboard - I hope you wiping them down right now!
5) Public Bathrooms: Goes without saying right? But did you know that research
has shown that most people tend to use the middle stalls the most and the
first stall the least. So for the sake of your health and good hygiene
use the stall with the least amount of germs. Personally I’d wear
rubber gloves if I had them on me.

6) Shaking Hands: Of course I don’t really expect you to stop shaking
hands – but it is important to know that direct hand to hand contact
is one of the leading causes of bacterial contamination anywhere.
Even if you’re vigilant and follow all of the advice I mentioned
above – who knows if the new client you just met and shook hands
with is as conscious of his hygiene as you are.
According to a recent study only 67 percent of Americans wash their hands
after using the bathroom – and only 33 percent bother to use soap.
So unfortunately the responsibility falls on you to protect yourself from
these deadly intruders.
So if you’re serious about your long term health and happiness – remember
mom’s words of wisdom and wash your hands! It only takes a minute – but
it can add up to years of great health and happiness.
A little soap and some warm water can go along way – and just think
how happy this is going to make Mom!
Stay Healthy!
