This will be a fun post but not if you’re a germophobe. I can deal with just about anything, but these items still have the ability to make my skin crawl just a little. If I had to sit around and obsess about bacteria and mites infesting my body like my better-half does, I would lose my mind. Hang onto whatever you like to hang onto, this ride might get a little bumpy.

  • Itchiness in humans is contagious. Watching someone else itch makes your brain think it’s experiencing an itch, even when it’s not.
  • The average bed is home to 10,000,000 dust mites.
  • It goes without saying that every day you inhale thousands of you own skin flakes since you lose approximately 40,000 flakes per minute.
  • Your skin contains billions of individual bacteria.
  • The most common bacteria found in your belly button is of the same species that make your feet smell.

  • There are mites that live in your hair follicles, eyelashes, and eyebrows. They walk around on your skin at night before returning to their hair follicles during the day.
  • Tapeworms inside humans have been measured as long as 20 feet.
  • Fungi thrive on the protein keratin found in hair, nails, and skin.
  • Men and women fart approximately the same amount each day, a half-liter of gas a day.
  • Did you know that defecaloesiophobia is the fear of painful bowel movements.

(Did you know?)

FART IS ONE OF THE OLDEST WORDS IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE
