Why should we wash our hands?

  • to clean it
  • to wash away the unseen germs

Germs can be present in our hands. Our hands come into contact with germs and dirt when we touch

  • a door knob
  • a computer mouse
  • a seat on a public transport
  • public toilets
  • while shaking hand of another
  • dirty stuff
  • while cleaning places

The above are only a few examples. There are many more ways through which germs can be contracted. If suppose, we do not clean our hands, the germs can be ingested and thus we can become ill or spread the illness to others.

How to keep our hands soft and clean

  • wash hands with a gentle soap or handwash
  • massage hands with some oil like olive oil or coconut oil
  • cut nails regularly and clean it with a brush using mild soap
Did you know that your nails can predict your health?

Nails that are not healthy could indicate vitamin deficiency or illness. Please consult @air-clinic doctors or your personal family doctor
