I am in danger for hygiene excess

The hygiene is basic in our health, in addition to having an important cultural load and of education: a person who is not adorned or who walks with the dirty clothes can provoke certain repulsion to us. But the excesses are not good, and the hygiene excess either. Although it seems rare to you, it can provoke allergy.
Our immune system is reinforced the more it works. Your struggle with the antibodies keeps him alert. By force of cleaning, we are exposed to bacteria that earlier nuestas defenses knew and were eliminating and that now, for lack of custom, attack us and provoke illnesses like asthma, dermatitis or rinitis.
A baby who grows up in a completely aseptic environment will have a flagging immune system that he has not learned to fight with the external agents, therefore, instead of avoiding the illnesses like a simple cold, we are making him exposed to others that can be, in the long run, chronic and more serious.
On the other hand, the bacteria get accustomed to the cleaning products and are done more and more resistant . The only thing that we obtain with this is that to disinfect a surface or an object every time we have to use stronger and aggressive products that in turn bother us.
The consequences suffer especially the parts of our body that more exposed are to the environment and to the external agents: our skin and our respiratory system. The small children are those who endure more risk before this type of sterilization for so slightly healthy habits like a wash with soap or a completely sterile environment. The baby must bathe with water only for your first year of life since this way it preserves the natural defenses of the skin, or like much, with some neutral soap, and not always. The loss of the natural fat provokes excemas, resecamiento of the skin and cracking.
A basic care like hydrating the skin and that does not remain humid can help us more than to take a shower with soap several times a day. Otherwise, you are taking the best defender who has the epidermis opposite to any external element.
