I don't use disinfectants - not because I fear the chemicals - but because I believe that your immune system needs to be exposed to germs. It's necessary to keep it fit IMO.
- Fomite 4y agoIn such a vague sense, "exposed to germs", it doesn't matter if you use disinfectants or not - you'll encounter plenty in your daily life. The purpose of disinfectants is to target surfaces that harbor massive populations of them.
- crazygringo 4y agoEveryday respiratory and doorknob germs? Sure, maybe. But salmonella from raw chicken? Or diseases spread via feces? I don't think so. That's not keeping you fit, it's just a risk of making you seriously sick for no good reason. People don't generally wipe down their whole house. But disinfecting kitchen prep surfaces and your toilet bowl, is basic hygiene/safety. Don't worry, you'll still be getting more than enough germs from the rest of the world.
