Daily Health Tips update for February 13:

Stay healthy during cold & flu season with these common sense tips to beat germs.

• Clean shopping cart handles with disposable wipes. A University of Arizona study found that 3 out of 4 cart handles contained diarrhea-causing bacteria.
• Wash your hands after handling money. 99% of dollar bills are contaminated with bacteria.
• Use eco-friendly paper towels to dry your hands instead of using a hand dryer. The paper towels actually help remove more bacteria from your skin.
• Avoid the magazines in the waiting room. They are loaded with germs!  Bring your own magazine, book or digital device while you wait.
• Don’t forget to clean your smart phones, tablets and keyboards regularly. Use special microfiber cloths or wipes designed just for electronics.
