Health & Hygiene

More about the book

Human hygiene has come a long way from the days when bathing was optional and even surgeons didn't think handwashing mattered! These days, we understand the important role that good hygiene plays in keeping us healthy. From our homes to our bodies and from our clothes to our pets, good hygiene is essential. This book will provide all the information you need to keep yourself and your environment clean and healthy. We have all heard the old saying, "you are what you eat." The six volumes in Health & Nutrition will explain the many ways in which the food choices you make every day can help or hurt your body's functioning. The books also look at physical fitness, the importance of good hygiene, and the many challenges of keeping food safe from contamination. From the key components of a balanced diet to avoiding foodborne illnesses, and from the impact of stress on health to how malnutrition hurts the body, these books are packed with useful information about protecting and improving your health.
