Do you prefer antibacterial hand soap or regular (not antibacterial) hand soap. I'm just wondering because I'm tired of going to Costco and they only seem to carry the antibacterial stuff now. I prefer the regular.Antibacterial or regular hand soap?
Regular.
The overuse of antibacterial products is contributing to our ability to get sick more easily. Our bodies' immune systems like a good workout. They recognize an invading bacteria, learn to counter it while you feel less than swell, and forever after, when that bacteria or one something like it arrives, it doesn't stand a chance.
Those who live in the antibacterial world, where every counter, toilet, doorknob, and desk is treated with antibacterial products, do not let their bodies learn how to fight nearly as many bacteria. When an unfamiliar one comes along, they're more likely to get sick, and for their illnesses to be worse and last longer.
If your immune system is compromised, or if you care for infants or the frail elderly, antibacterials make sense. For the rest of us, not so much. Plain soap is just fine.Antibacterial or regular hand soap?
regular is better, you don't want those suckers building up immunity against the antibacterial stuff, then they will be invincible! and then what kind of soap are we going to use to kill them? bleach?
regular, washing your hands rids them of excess bacteria anyway
antibacterial is much healther and safer.
