The initial foundations of hygiene are laid by all responsible parents in the children at a time when the kids are crawling. Maybe it seems ridiculous to individuals that it’s ridiculous, and at the same time, reasonable dads and mothers give their descendants a foundation, following which they will live much longer, healthier and more prosperous than if they ignored simple, in general, rules.
What is the meaning of hygiene? Adults rarely think about this, in fact, in modern society, there are few reasons. But travelers of past centuries felt the value of hygiene in their own skin in wild places unfamiliar with the achievements of civilization. In fact, boiling water is elementary. But how many people died from neglecting such simple rules.
What is included in personal hygiene
The rules of personal hygiene, as well as the rules of the road, were not invented by stupid people at all. And even if something seems superfluous or understandable “by definition”, it is worth remembering that these very “definitions” are different for everyone. And if you know exactly why it is necessary to slow down before crossing for pedestrians or to wash the upper limbs before eating, it is not a fact that this is also obvious to someone else (and at the same time he is not necessarily clinically stupid).
So what about the concept of “personal hygiene rules”? First of all, funny as it may seem, the combination of mental and physical labor. Moreover, both types of activity should be harmoniously combined, and now most people only remember about physical activity, and many forget that they still need to strain the brain.
Proper nutrition is also usually referred to as nutrition. And it is also included in the rules of personal hygiene. After all, it depends on food and health, and performance. Hardening - this applies to fans of a healthy lifestyle (like). But at the same time - and to hygiene. And do not forget about the rest, although it is considered by many that it is not necessary to rest. And people only remember about a dream when problems begin with it, and proper sleep is also among the things that are included in the rules of personal hygiene. Moreover, a huge part of people believe that hygiene is exclusively pure body.
Clean body
Well, if many are obsessed with bodily purity, we’ll start with it. Wash, wash and wash, regularly and thoroughly. And not only the body, hair should also be clean. It used to be that washing your hair more than once a week is bad for the hair itself. So this is nonsense! Modern shampoos are quite suitable even for daily washing. Dirty head - wash and do not pay attention to prejudice. The mouth is the gateway to disease, so you need to brush your teeth twice a day, and not 10 seconds, but 2-3 minutes. Nails also require care, if you do not want to see how your friends faint from the "beds" on the arms and legs.
Clean clothes
First of all, underwear, it is closest to the body. Even if there is no way to swim (for example, on a hike) at least change, sorry, underpants and a T-shirt (in the female version - the bra is on the list). Even in uncivilized conditions, you can follow the rules of personal hygiene. In the end, it is in your best interest!
Hygiene and Society
The rules of public and personal hygiene are, in principle, the same. Personally, you think it will not be very pleasant to go on the subway next to a smelly and unclean person. And you also think about the number of bacilli on it. So there’s a bit of sanity - and you don’t have to study hygiene further.
You can undoubtedly neglect the requirements of cleanliness. But is it worth it? Cleanliness is also good for health, and people will not shy away.
