A recent synthesis argues that excessive handwashing and sanitizers can alter skin/gut microbiomes, which in turn influence immune signaling and cognition.

Sending this to my wife. I already consider myself a bit of a germaphobe in public spaces, but she’s 2x more.
Though i did get an eye infection with lasting sensibilities from a publich trash can.
my wife and I are maskers so. thing is we would get sick every year before covid and when the requirements started being relaxed we realized we had made it three years without being sick. Ultimately its been 7 years and we have been sick once and that was due to her being asked to remove it at the physical therapists place while doing this test and someone there was sick. So like I don’t feel like a germaphobe as much as a notbeingsickophile.
🤣 mine is too, she has a stash of sanitizer at my aunt’s house who we generally only see once a year over the holidays.
