Bill Gates and the non-scientific world elite have changed everything. Who is right? The scientific community, or the Elites?
You make the call...
Short answer is YES
Ummmm
Yes
Its called immunity
I remember being a 6 year old and in my local park in Miami they had an old real choochoo train, and fighter plane you could play in! Those were the real days:-)
My dad was a small town, country doc. He was a Navy doc in WW2 and Korea then had a family practice for 50 years.
He often told the story of a young couple who brought their oft sick boy to him for “allergies”. His “prescription”? Stop keeping him so clean and give him a teaspoon of dirt! It worked,
Yes, we were meant to play in dirt.
Meanwhile, running with scissors is worth a try.
I worked construction all my life. NEVER washed hands before eating. I never get sick. Never had a flu shot.
I probably get the flu every few years or so but it is short, hard and rare.
No kid is allowed to get dirty these days . No wonder they are always sick.
LOL, worked construction too for about 5 years. Man, my coffee cup alone boosted my immunity.
I take a hot shower every morning and brush my teeth twice a day. That's about it for hygiene. I'll wash my hands before cooking food or after doing a dirty job. But I'm not one of those hypochondriacs that always have to have hand sanitizer lying around.
Red Herring is served best at Dinner
Yup....growing up on a farm, eating fresh grown garden and farm produce, cleaning out pig pens daily and chicken coops when it’s needed, every day drinking unpasteurized milk and lots of hard work.... is the best for you for later on in life. I’ve been conducting an informal survey on this for a long time and those are the common parameters in the formula for good health.
“Could Getting Dirty and Being Exposed to Germs Boost Your Health?”
Yes, of course is does.
That this is asked, EVAHHHHHH, is astounding to me.
I’m hoping..
I’ve seen it written more than a few times that kids who grow up with pets in the house (cats,dogs) have fewer allergies than do kids not exposed to pets.
I’ve heard it suggested that the apparent increase in peanut allergies is tied to children spending less time (if any) playing in dirt.
Nowadays every other kid is allergic to peanuts.
Yep. It’s well-known that kids raised in rural areas or on farms or around animals and pets — or any such combination — are much healthier than kids whose parents (esp. mom) are obsessed with cleanliness. It’s crucial to keep one’s microflora, both inside (intestines) and out (skin), diverse.
It’s unsettling how timely that routine sounds now.
