Lesson Overview

1.41 – How Good Hygiene Prevents Illness and Infections: Clean habits protect against invisible germs that cause sickness. Washing hands, changing clothes, and brushing teeth remove harmful bacteria before they spread. Regular bathing prevents skin infections and odor buildup. Cleaning wounds and trimming nails safely stop bacteria from entering the body. Good hygiene also limits contagious illnesses like colds or stomach bugs. These actions safeguard not only you but everyone around you. Preventing illness through cleanliness reduces doctor visits and absences. Understanding how small routines guard your health builds responsibility and pride. Cleanliness is one of the simplest yet strongest shields your body can have.
