PERSONAL HYGIENE
Taking care of your body and Keeping it clean
WHY DO WE KEEP OURSELVES CLEAN?
REASON 1)
Being clean helps us to be free of bacteria that could be harmful and cause disease.
Poor hygiene can lead to tooth decay and skin infections or other illnesses.
IT CAN BE UNPLEASANT TO BE IN CLOSE CONTACT WITH PEOPLE THAT HAVE BODY ODOUR OR BAD BREATH
Other people expect us to be clean, good hygiene helps us have more positive interactions with people
Reason 2)
SO….. HOW OFTEN SHOULD YOU SHOWER OR HAVE A BATH?
AS NEEDED
Which means:
Every day or
every other day
IF YOU GET SWEATY AFTER SPORT,
A MUCKY JOB, OR JUST A VERY WARM DAY
CAN YOU SHOWER TOO MUCH?
YES! YOU CAN SHOWER TOO MUCH
Showering too much can strip the natural protective oils from your skin and make it dry and itchy
We have friendly bacteria on our skin that keep us healthy
