It's been featured on Good Morning America and other news programs that men, more than women don't wash their hands after using the bathroom.
Hepatitis A is spread from not washing your hands after using the toilet. The sickness spread can cause severe vomiting and diarrhea. It's a common hazard in restaurants where food workers don't wash up after using the bathroom.
So men, try this, sing “Row Row Row the Boat” or “The Happy Birthday Song” to help with washing. The time it takes you to sing the song is the minimum amount of water, soap and rubbing while washing that is needed to clean the hands of germs.
Or instead of singing, I prefer to name 7 things, people, or situations that I am grateful for. It's also a good time to say a short prayer or blessing for your loved ones.
I teach this to my toddler who is potty training and to my makeup artist team.
Perhaps you need to find a hand soap that you love the smell and texture of?
Remember Howard Hughes used to carry his own soap, this may come back into style and you will be ahead of the game.
Here's a few soap suggestions to get you started:
Try Neolia Olive Oil soap: it's made with 100% organic all natural Italian extra virgin olive oil. It's free of animal ingredients, not tested on animals, gentle and hypo allergenic and has a fresh clean smell.
Or, visit your local health food store and get a chunk of the hand made soap from a local vendor. You will see a display with long rectangles of soap and you cut of as much or as little as you want.
Okay, if these don't work for you because bar soap can get messy and if left in a puddle of itself can begin to grow it's own bacteria, then start with a pump dispenser of Soft Soap anti-bacterial moisturizing formula found at the local Walmart.
It's not so important of what soap you use while washing your hands, just that you do it.
Thanks guys for washing up, especially if you are in the same restaurant as me and are about to prepare my meal.
Who knew hand washing and hygiene could be so good for you?
