I do not live in fear of germs or bugs or invaders – whatever you would like to call these creatures – as I really believe that our body’s immune system is super strong! However, I do think it’s important to help our body, in every way possible, to be healthy. And knowing that many diseases are due to poor hygiene, hand washing is an easy and simple way to help out our immune system.

Just like taking the time to chew our food we need to take our time to wash our hands with soap. Most physicians will suggest about a 15 second scrub with soap and then drying our hands with a towel.

The Mayo clinic has written a great article on the importance of hand washing so please take the time to read it and pass it on!

Be well,
