1. Keep your bag off the floor In public, you may feel that the door handles of toilets are really dirty, and the shopping carts in supermarkets are also dirty, but have you ever noticed your bag? Experts say that there are tens of thousands of microorganisms per square inch at the bottom of the handbags we usually use, including a lot of staphylococci that can cause inflammation. Salmonella and E. coli, bacteria that can cause food poisoning, are often found at the bottom of bags. Four out of five bags tested positive for salmonella. Experts believe that our bags are often placed on the floor in movie theaters or public toilets, and they recommend cleaning the bottom of the bag regularly, preferably once a day. When attending public places, it is best to always carry your bag in your hand. 2. Don’t use public hand sanitizer Most of the germs that can cause infection come from hand sanitizers in public places and restaurant restrooms. Yes, most germs disappear when you wash your hands, but if you use paper or touch public hand sanitizer, you are likely to put yourself at risk of infection unless the hand sanitizer box is designed not to be touched directly by hands. Therefore, it is best for you to carry hand sanitizer with you, and once you wash your hands, don't forget to dry them with your own tissue. 3. Use colors to keep you optimistic Here's a good way to help you stay away from depression: wear colorful clothes! Researchers have found that the color of clothes can regulate a person's mood very well. Pink and yellow can easily make your mood better and make people feel happy, warm and confident. To boost your mood, experts suggest wearing happy colors on yourself, painting a wall, putting pink and yellow flowers on your desk, and keeping a pink or yellow notepad. 4. Take a bath in hot and cold water Many times when we want to relax we turn to saunas, but according to researchers, being in cold water releases pleasure hormones in your brain that can reduce stress. Stress can lead to high blood pressure and heart disease, so alternating hot and cold water baths can help reduce stress. 5. Say yes to yogurt 2 ounces of yogurt a day can help keep gum disease away. Japanese researchers have found that the lactic acid in yogurt can help oral hygiene and prevent oral diseases by reducing the level of microorganisms in the mouth. Yogurt is also rich in probiotics, which can enhance the body's natural immunity and keep the stomach and intestines smooth. 6. Clean the car When was the last time you cleaned your dashboard? Your car's dashboard harbors a huge number of germs. Studies have shown that car dashboards are infested with yeast and mold, which prefer cooler temperatures. The reason your dashboard is covered in thousands of bacteria is because your car's air circulation system is right above the dashboard, resulting in a bacterial colony. Experts recommend wiping the dashboard frequently and cleaning it at least once a week with an antibacterial substance, making sure to clean areas that are not cleaned often, such as the radio buttons. 7. Drink more cocoa drinks Drinking cocoa drinks may help support your heart, immune system, and brain health. Studies show that drinking a cup of cocoa a day may help you lose weight because the flavanols it contains can reduce the overall processing of calories and help the body absorb them. That’s why it’s best to drink a cup of cocoa with your meals. 8. Make the vegetables you eat fresher Buy vegetables at the farmers' market every day, so the vegetables you eat every day seem healthy enough. But experts say many vegetables are rife with dirt and bacteria. Since organic foods are often sprayed with the same substances, your organic spinach is subjected to a bacteria bath every 10 minutes, as is the case with most water circulation systems of this type, so the bacteria is constantly spread out. What can you do? Never use plastic bags to carry your groceries. People with asthma or respiratory problems are more susceptible to illness or colds, especially after breathing in air that contains bacteria. 9. Whole-grain breakfast The latest research provides a healthier breakfast recipe: a whole-grain breakfast rich in vitamin B12 and folic acid, which can help improve ulcers or inflammation. By examining those who had inflammation, the researchers found that they were deficient in vitamin B12 and folate, nutrients that can trigger inflammation of the tongue and mouth. One cup of whole-grain breakfast a day contains about 400 mg of folic acid and 100 mg of vitamin B12. 10. Drink plenty of water every day Drinking plenty of water every day can enhance the circulation speed of the body system, relieve tense body functions, and improve warning capabilities and energy consumption. In fact, drinking water has another benefit: weight loss. If you drink 16 ounces of water a day, you can lose 5 pounds in a year. |
