Washing Hands For Healthier Living
- 2. Medical sciences tell us about a number of diseases that erupt because of infection from germs. Some of these diseases that have ailed humans include respiratory infections, influenza, gastrointestinal infections, and so on. Washing your hands is one of the best steps towards preventing germs. Brands like Dettol bring hand wash soaps in prices which are affordable.
- 3. Hands must thoroughly be washed – After visiting the toilet Before and after preparing food Before handling raw, cooked, or ready-to-eat food Before eating After smoking After handling animals After changing nappies After handling waste-bins After working in the garden After using a handkerchief or napkin After dusting or cleaning
- 4. Wet your hands or put them below a running tap Take a few drops of liquid soap or rub bar of soap, and lather Properly rub the hands, across all surfaces and corners Do not miss out on the back of your hands, wrists, between the fingers, and below the fingernails Remove rings, bracelets, watches, bangles, etc. when washing hands Wash the hands well with water Dry your hands using a clean and dry towel Paper towels or hot air dryers can also be used
- 5. Since standing water or a basin of water can quickly get contaminated, running water must be used for washing hands Using soap along with water tends to remove a larger amount of germs Soap lathers well with warm water Since different soaps have different levels of PH, attention must be paid while buying Generally, liquid soap is a better choice than soap bars
- 6. In case of irritation, consult – Doctor Local health department Taking care of hands Use gloves when doing dishes Use gloves while gardening Use water-based hand lotions
