Germs Germs Germs


Since the Swine Flu is the big topic recently here's a fact about bacteria there are five nonillion (5x10 to the power of 30) bacteria living on the earth today, so as much as you want to avoid germs there everywhere. Bacteria makes up most of the worlds biomass. No prove their everywhere their is 40 million bacteria cells i a milliliter of water. So talking about staying healthy with immune systems and stress here are some places where bacteria are most commonly found. A place common for finding bacteria that cause the flu or cold is public magazines. Flu and cold virus can live on a dry surface up to 48 hours so if your in a doctors office all those sick people who were their for the last 48 have touch that magazine that your reading. Have no fear, just simple use hand sanitizer, this will take care of those germs and help prevent E coli. Another spot is the very keyboard that i am typing on. A study done by a  UK consumer group showed that after checking 33 office keyboards for bacteria one keyboard had just as much as a toilet ew. To avoid this is simply clean the mouse and keyboard along with using hand sanitizer. Now going to the gym and exercising is a great way to stay healthy it is also full of germs. A 2006 study in the Clinical Journal of Sport Medicine found bacteria on 73% of the equipment. Washing your hands with hot water and soap will get ride of it, but also washing the equipment before is good too.
