Not Washing Your Hands After Pooping Worse Than Eating Raw Meat
Experts have revealed that failure to wash hands after leaving the bathroom is more likely to spread drug-resistant E. coli than consuming raw or under-cooked meat. According to the study, the potentially fatal bacterium’s “likeliest route” is through human poop particles, which generally spreads through poor bathroom hygiene. Last year, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention investigated nearly 3,000 cases of Escherichia coli. Researchers pinpoint one type — Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamase (ESBL)-producing E. coli — as one that is particularly difficult to treat. “Rather — and unpalatably — the likeliest route of transmission for ESBL-E.coli is directly from human to human, with fecal particles from one person reaching the mouth of another,” said University of East Anglia professor David Livermore, whose study is published in The Lancet Infectious Diseases journal. “Infections caused by ESBL-E. coli bacteria are difficult to treat. And they are becoming more common in both the community and hospitals,” said Livermore. “Mortality rates among people infected with these super-bug strains are double those of people infected with strains that’re susceptible to treatment.”

Do You Think Your Job Is Making You Go Bald? You Might Be Right!
According to a new study, putting in more hours at your job is more likely to make you go bald prematurely. The study came from Sungkyunkwan University School of Medicine in South Korea and relied on research pulled from 13,000 men aged between 20 and 59 from 2013 to 2017. They were split into groups based on their number of working hours and other lifestyle factors such as smoking, income, and relationship status were also considered. Bottom line? Too much work is bad for you. Full-time jobs often require about 40 hours a week at the office, but many people end up putting in way more than that. Whether you’re staying late to get ahead, to try and earn a promotion, or to get a big project finished, perpetually staying late won’t do your hairline any favors.
