With the improvement of our quality of life, we pay more and more attention to our own safety and health issues, so we are very concerned about our personal living habits, such as washing hands before and after meals, or spraying some alcohol disinfection on our bodies after going out and returning home, these are all things for personal health considerations.
There are also some friends who will take a bath many times a day no matter what season it is, or brush their teeth several times, but who would have thought that even if they pay attention to their hygiene in this way, there are still many potential "dirty" that we don't know, and how much do we know about this aspect? Let's take a look at these aspects that everyone can't pay attention to!
The first seemingly hygienic behavior is actually unhygienic – eating with paper wrapped
In everyone's life, is it often the habit of wrapping food in paper? It may be that there are times when it is special, and the things you want to eat cannot be held directly by hand (the hands are a little dirty or just finished work), such a situation is actually not a few, but is this really clean and hygienic?
For example, when eating some small snacks, the food will be wrapped in paper and then put in the mouth, and at that time I felt that this way of eating was relatively clean and safe, but is this really the case? I am afraid that only my hands are clean.
Eating with paper in their own subjective consciousness, most friends should feel that this is very clean, and the paper product is also white and clean and looks clean, but the actual situation is not so, and the paper is not as clean and hygienic as everyone thinks, it can only be said to be relatively clean.
Although the paper is white, whether it is the toilet paper used in our lives or the paper used in the office, this is also because the paper uses some bleaching powder or bleach in the production process, so the paper is very clean and white when you can see it with the naked eye.
Speaking of which, some friends are curious, toilet paper is used too much in daily life, we wipe our nose and hands will involve the use of toilet paper, but this is only for the human body There is no harm in using this, but once it touches the food, toilet paper will produce some chemical factors with food.
Once this chemical factor occurs, there will be some changes between toilet paper and food, such as the appearance of some "harmful substances", if used for a short time or in small amounts, it is fine, but once this is done regularly, our body will appear "bleach", this substance can not be decomposed.
After the chemical reaction, there will be those products that are difficult for the human body to decompose between the paper and the food, and eventually these products will accumulate in our body (such as the liver), and a small amount will not have much impact on the body, but we all understand the truth that it is very rare, why not for the body?
After a long time, this harmful substance will accumulate in the human body, and there are even some carcinogens, although our body is a very advanced "machine", even a machine can not withstand this use, so we should avoid this way when we eat in the future.
The second type of behavior that seems unhygienic is actually unhygienic - often scrubbing in the shower
Especially in the north of the mainland, the bathing culture is also very developed, even when we take a bath at home, we will often "rub the bath" for ourselves, which can make our body more relaxed and comfortable.
Another point is that after taking a bath, the latent consciousness of each of us will think that our body is much cleaner, because the unclean things in the body epidermis are cleaned out, and this behavior has been passed down to this day, but is this really the case?
Now that the season is approaching summer, the frequency of taking a bath will become more frequent than before, and many friends will subconsciously rub the bath in the process of bathing, but this is not a good way for the body, and there will even be a state of burden.
It is true that the body will feel much more relaxed after rubbing, but in the process of rubbing, we do not rub off the "mud", but the epidermal cells of our body, which contain pores, sebum film and epidermal muscle layer, these are not harmful substances, but they are mixed together to show the appearance of mud.
It's good to have a longer interval of time, so that you can indeed clean out those necrotic epidermal cells, but once you regularly rub the bath, the epidermis of our body will be seriously damaged, and this epidermal cell can be seen as the "protective cover" on the surface of our body, and you can imagine what such a "protective cover" is like when it is destroyed.
Over time, our body will lose water on a large scale, and the skin is more likely to be affected by the outside world, and some people will also have allergies, dry and flaky skin and even acne, so in the summer season, we don't need to scrub every time we take a bath, just the main time is empty.
The third seemingly hygienic behavior is actually unhygienic - get up early every day and fold the cups
For some friends who live a more refined life, the first thing they should do when they wake up every morning is to fold their quilts, so that their lives look very beautiful and tidy, but this way is not a very clean and healthy behavior, and there are also reports that have clearly expressed it.
The human body is a very powerful and high-powered "machine", and it is precisely for this reason that our body can excrete some harmful substances every day, but during the day, our skin will be exposed to different environments, and there will definitely be many microorganisms in these environments.
There must be some friends who take a bath and lie down in bed after going home every day, but there will definitely be some behaviors that take a short break in bed without taking a bath, so that the bacteria in those environments will get on the bed or the quilt, and over time there will be a lot of bacteria on the quilt.
Moreover, even if we go to bed after taking a shower, we will eliminate many different substances and bacteria in the process of sleeping at night, which is what we usually call metabolism, and the quilt is the most direct way to contact these bacteria, so if the quilt is folded after waking up every morning, these bacteria cannot be discharged.
The fourth seemingly hygienic act is actually unhygienic – washing dishes with a towel
Washing dishes can be said to be something we do every day in our daily life, after a simple meal, everyone will scrub the pots and pans they use, and in this process, some people will wipe the washed dishes with a towel, in order to clean the remaining water stains on it.
But this behavior is not clean and hygienic, although the towel may be very clean, this is only our subconscious thought, the towel is actually very easy to raise some bacteria, if you use the towel to wipe the bowl for a long time, it will bring these bacteria to the top of the bowl.
You can imagine that if we wipe the dishes with a towel after all our hard work, then the bacteria that remain on the towel will once again get on the top of the bowl, so what is the point of washing the dishes? The finished dishes are not very clean.
So for those pots and pans that have just been washed, in fact, we can rest assured that the remaining water stains on them will dry naturally, so that both for pots and pans and for the next time we use these objects, we can rest assured, and it will be much cleaner.
Conclusion
In fact, there are many different small details in our lives, some of which are very good habits, and some of which can affect our health and hygiene.
We still need to pay great attention to this, after all, physical health is something that each of us attaches great importance to, if there is a problem with our own body, we will definitely regret it!
