Right.
So it turns out that science is now supporting grandma
when she told you to always wash behind your ears.
A new study published in the Journal Frontiers in Microbiology,
found germs leave her in certain places on the body.
A team at George Washington University identified
hot spots for germs and unhealthy bacteria.
Those spots include behind your ears, between your toes and in your belly button.
All areas that grandma used to tell us to clean,
which is why they dubbed the study the grandma hypothesis.
One of the researchers noted that these areas are cleaned
less than your arms and legs,
potentially leaving room for different kinds of bacteria.
What do you think?
Yeah.
You know,
I'm always a big proponent of cleaning between the toes and the void buttons,
obviously because I'm dealing with kids.
But you know,
these are parts of your body that you
think because they don't really have access to the
world like who's gonna be messing with your ear that they don't get dirty but they do.
You know what I mean? So, and when you, when you're on your pillow,
you ever see dirty pillows, that's where it comes from.
