Latest Breaking News - Health - Viewing: Why Everyone Should Have An Antibacterial Hand Sanitizer Friday, November 06, 2009 There is a war going on all around you and you don't even know it. What war might you ask? Unseen by the naked eye germs are everywhere. Someone sneezes and doesn't cover their mouth. Runny noses that are wiped on sleeves. Shaking hands with customers all day long. You are inundated each and everyday at your home, office or out in public. It has become so apparent that even grocery stores and supermarkets now have anti-bacterial wipes to use on your grocery carts. If you aren't getting the picture by now you should. Germs can make you sick and even kill you. What precautions can you take to decrease your odds against this? Here are some tips you can take to help you win the war against these dangerous warriors. Soap is no longer the king of killing germs Sure hand washing kills germs. But even washing your hands might not be sufficient. In many instances people aren't washing their hands correctly. How many news expose's have you seen where people are told to wash their hands and a professional comes in after they "supposedly" washed their hands? They shine a blue light on them to show all the places that they've missed? We aren't even going to mention the cases where people didn't wash their hands at all after leaving the restroom. Perhaps the restroom doesn't have soap. What do you do then? If you have a hand sanitzer with you you don't have to worry about not having clean hands. Alcohol based sanitizers Make sure that you pick a sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol. Anything less is just asking for trouble. Noone is suggesting that you'd start the next pandemic but who wants to take that risk? In many studies done it was implied that sanitizers weren't effective. Perhaps it was because the alcohol content was low. Some of the cheaper sanitizers don't have enough alcohol. Cheaper isn't always better. As they say you get what you pay for. Non-alcohol based sanitizers Some sanitizers don't use alcohol. Whether they are eco-friendly or not make sure that if you are using triclosan don't plan on going in the water or using tap water. The unfortunate combination of chlorine with triclosan is harmful to humans. Gel or spray If you are concerned about which type of antibacterial hand sanitizer to purchase both work effectively against the battle against germs. Spray sanitizers don't take as long to absorb in the skin. Thirty seconds is all it takes. Gels, on the other hand while not absorbing as quickly won't dry out your hands. So someone with kids might opt for the spray version as kids aren't concerned with dry hands and thirty seconds is quick enough to hold their attention span and get their hands clean. As you can see having a antibacterial hand sanitizer with you is not a frivolous item, but a need to protect your health. As more and more new germs and viruses are discovered you can have peace of mind knowing you have your secret weapon with you.
