Hi mylotters, how many times a day do you clean your hands? Have you ever realized how dirty our hands get when we handle cash, when we do hand shakes etc. You'll realize that your hands gather a lot of dirt. Clean your hands guys!!

hi! On the average, it do it 10 to 15 times daily or depending on my activities. I think it's not enough that we wash our hands several times, the important thing is to wash our hands properly every time. I remember someone told me that you should be able to finish at least 2 Happy Birthday songs when washing your hands. Initially, I thought it was too long then I realized, hey, maybe my singing happy birthday was too slow. Turns out I was right, according to a reliable source, it should only take 20 seconds each time. :p

I do try and wash my hands as often as I possibly can, as hands are the dirtiest place of the body and it touches so many different things. That's why I try to wash my hands often during the day.

Hi, dalnoluma. You are very right! I wash my hands after using the bathroom and when I have used cleaning products. I do need to wash them a little bit more than I am doing too. Germs are everywhere in the least place that we have expected it to be.

Washing hands is a good habit to keep people health. Personally speaking, I always wash my hands before having dinner and after answering the call of nature. In addition, every time I return home, I never forget washing my hands. It doesn't waste much time but help a lot.

Our hands really get dirty after things we do daily. Me? I wash my hands before and after I eat meals. The time in between, depending on what I do, I use hand sanitizers when I touch stuffs like cash or when I go inside the lavatory, etc. Yeah. we really should clean our hands well to prevent being sick. Best of luck
