HERE'S WHAT I THINK
Do You Think Anti-Bacterial Soaps are Creating Super Germs?
The use of these so called antibacterial cleaning products claims to kill 99% of bacteria. However what becomes of the remaining 1%. This 1% remaining becomes the super germ. The overuse of antibacterial cleaning products breeds stronger and stronger organisms and thus less resistance to cleaning agents.

Probably so. I think the best thing to do is just make sure you keep your home CLEAN using NATURAL, plant-based cleaning products.

No question about it! 99.9% ain't good enough. Kill them all or just wash with soap. As a kid, I used to play in mud all the time, and I'm sure I'm healthier for it, having exposed myself to weak bacteria and allowed my immune system to 'know' them! The world today is fairly sterile in comparison, which puts people at risk.

Definitely are - and also I think anti-bacterial soaps dry out your skin. We don't use them here.

not necessarily, but i think our over-reliance on antibacterial soap gives us a false sense of security so that we're more susceptible to getting germs, more willing to encounter them...

Yes, many of them contain a chemical called 'triclosan', which kills off the weakest bacteria, allowing the strongest to multiply and form 'super-bugs'. Just stick with regular soap!

Yes, they certainly do contribute. Along with the misuse and abuse of antibiotics.

Yeah, I'm a bit annoyed that it's almost impossible to buy soap that *isn't* anti-bacterial.

Definetly, These Germs, bacteria, and viruses become stronger and stronger. They are some of the contributers that are causing so many dangerous diseases such as the flesh eating diseases and devistating infections to continue in and out of the hospitals. The common public is not being educated or alerted to the danger that is around them. It is all about money not the health of the people or the nation. There are safe products out there that can be used. Shaklee Basic G is on the top of the list. By Lucille Crabtree
