🙌 Happy World Hand Hygiene Day!
Our hands touch hundreds of surfaces each day. Harmful chemicals found in products and in dust can stay on our hands and get into our bodies without us knowing.
Simple steps you can take to reduce your exposure to harmful chemicals:
Wash your hands often, especially before eating or preparing food.
Use plain soap and water. Soaps with “antibacterial” or “antimicrobial” on the label can contain harmful chemicals.
