Our health is affected not only by unbalanced diet but also by disease causing organisms which may be water-borne,airborne or food-borne. Some diseases are caused by infection through microorganisms, insects and parasites. Infection develops when gems/microbes (I.e., viruses) or some-pathogenic (disease-producing) organisms such a bacteria,fungi,Protozoa, helminthes,nematodes etc., enter human body. Therefore, to prevent the infection of diseases ,we need to keep our environment clean and hygienic. Personal hygiene and community hygiene help in prevention and spreading of diseases.
1. Some funny tasks
I simply believe in ensuring that my hands – what I use to place food in my mouth – are clean before I eat. I have the same standard of cleanliness for myself that I do for anyone working in the food industry. Next time you’re in a public washroom, see how well the people around you wash their hands and ask yourself if you’d want them preparing your food.
I once had to make a mental note to ensure future handshakes with my boss were avoided (or at least followed by extra thorough scrubbing) after an encounter in the washroom. He emerged from the stall and ran the water for half a second while he poked his fingers under the tap almost as if he was trying not to get them wet – the same way you quickly passed your hand through the flame of a candle as a kid – and dried them by flicking his fingers. He did not use any soap. If this little display was for me, what did he bother to do when there wasn’t a witness?
