Lots of people think that anus is the dirtiest part of our bodies since it is in direct contact with fecal compounds. However, this is no longer true since scientists from the Harvard School found out that there are other body parts that contain even more bacteria than the anus. So, here are they:
1. MOUTH
Maybe this is the most shocking fact that you are going to read, but our
mouth is the dirtiest part of our bodies since it has more than 600
different living bacteria. Regarding this fact, cleaning the mouth,
teeth and regular oral hygiene is the essential way to stay safe from
bacteria.
2. ARMPITS
Armpits are the second placed dirtiest part of our body that are a
shelter for more than 80 000 bacteria. By using perfumes and deodorants
you are only neutralizing the odor, but you are not dealing with germs.
Try to wash your armpits every day with antibacterial soap.
3. EARS
Earwax in the ear canal has lubrication that cleans bacteria, liquids,
and water in the ear and because of it, it is one of the dirtiest parts
of the body, comprised only of bacteria and waste.
4. TONGUE
Since it is linked with the mouth, the tongue is another bacterial
storage. When you clean your mouth do not forget to clean your tongue
too
5. FINGERNAILS
Having long nails is good and stylish detail especially for women, but
it is also a dangerous source of bacteria if not treated on time. Skin
located under the nails has bacteria that can have severe consequences
if is not cleaned and treated. We recommend you to clean your nails and
hands before and after every meal and another contact with food, rubbish
or other dirty compounds.
6. HEAD
Head together with hair is another bacteria source that if not washed
properly can cause itching at the beginning and then other scalp
damages.
7. BELLY BUTTON
This cannot be excluded from the list since it is hidden source of
bacteria. The naval is the most sensitive part that needs to be cleaned
every day. If you do not practice every day cleaning it might form naval
stone that can be transformed in a tumor.
8. BOTTOMS
Many different bacteria are stored in this part of the body. Clean them properly.
9. NASAL CAVITY
Dirt in the nose is another source of bacteria. If you do not clean your
nose regularly the waste can go through channels to the sinuses and
head, causing more serious health problems.
