Hygiene refers to practices that help maintain health and prevent disease spread. Good hygiene includes cleanliness of the body, hands, hair, feet, and clothes. It also involves sanitation like managing waste and having clean water. Environmental health considers broader factors in a person's surroundings that affect their wellbeing. Cholera is an intestinal infection caused by Vibrio bacteria spread through contaminated food and water. It causes diarrhea, vomiting, and muscle cramps. Poor sanitation, lack of clean water, and poverty increase cholera risk. Promoting hygiene in communities helps protect people's health.
