So while I’m never a fan of animal testing, this report raises some interesting questions about the benefits of playing outside. Can dirt make you smarter?
In an age of disinfectant sprays and readily-available hand sanitizer, it begs to be asked whether our obsession with being germ-free has an impact on the immune system. But our brains?
And I won’t lie, I carry hand sanitizer religiously. I’m not real big on getting sick –and maybe it’s just the power of positive thinking – but I feel like I’ve not caught as many bugs as seasons prior to my sanitizer usage.
But at the same time, I can never advocate enough for playing in the dirt.
Do you people have a facebook fan page? I looked for one on twitter but could not discover one, I would really like to become a fan!
You certainly deserve a round of applause for your post and more specifically, your blog in general. Very high quality material
