keep reusing dishcloths over and over, wash them every
day to reduce household germs.

in the dishwasher. Keeping kitchen utensils as clean
as possible will greatly reduce household germs.

about each and every medication you take to avoid
possible dangerous drug interactions. This includes
herbal and over the counter medications.
