they knew it belonged to me when one. expropriation. fundamental destruction starvation. the price the government corporate. the selling out of a country. that don't fear no heart. starts december twenty ninth on t.w. . welcome to in good shape coming up losing weight the wii going away does it work and is it safe. polly neuropathy how do sensory disorders happen and what can be done to stop them and hygiene how clean do things really have to be here's your host dr costly go to out happy birthday chilly here you have the girls day to hear happy birthday dear calls to happy birthday to you. scientists from the british royal from a surgical society tell us that we have to sing happy birthday twice while we wash our hands all the british government this is what i'm going to discuss today with dr to be a comma here at the charity in the late happy birthday to the. hygiene is important in everyday life especially hand hygiene hand washing but don't overdo it today we have a real. the exciting show for you prepared well than twenty million germans because there's the t.v. dog yeah. that's not how we wanted to meet you oh yeah thank you think is going to take an autograph think later thank you very much all this thank you i will think you think you. owe. thank god for disinfectants. there's no such thing as too much fingerless in the home also the adverts for his belief. but germany's institute for risk assessment warns against the widespread use of disinfectants due to the levels of chlorine alcohol and other corrosive chemicals as not the substance those substances can irritate or damage the skin it's done so the problem is that the skins protective layer is no longer there. the hottest of damage and this opens the door for bacteria which can lead to further skin damage and. man used to use antibacterial cleaning products assuming they would protect her daughter from getting ill. but instead they've left the skin on her hands chopped and a constant risk of infection. and she's one of a growing number of cases so don't tell it just. as a dam here we see quite a number of patients with changes to the skin on their hands and they tend to be people who have frequent contact with water when cleaning products device how and why new ones mattoon. excessive use of aggressive disinfectant has dried her skin out. hurts a lot when my hands are so dry skin tears it's not just a cosmetic thing it goes deep down and come out as. is effectively worn out through cleaning the damage is extensive which means it can take a long time before this any chance of a healing. even just washing your hands with soap placing stress on the skin protective layer the micro biome. then the time to regenerate. disinfectants kill bacteria but at the same time attack the micro biome . if you then also wash your hands the skin is left completely unprotected and dries out leaving dangerous bacteria free to enter. our microbiome needs tender loving care because it keeps our skin intact and. plus it helps keep our lungs in good shape as well as our justice system they all depend on our micro biome. in fact in some sanitizers in spray bottles. as. they release a harmful that should not be inhaled. into this a lot of the chemicals in the cleaning products to enter the human body through the airways that can cause burning in the throat. fits of coughing and irritation to the mucous membranes. risks that many people may not be aware of. products don't remove all germs. bacteria survive one of them able to spread even more. i'm not going to encourage antibiotic resistance. or risk assessment only over the counter substances from the pharmacy. there are basically two cases when using disinfectants may make. one is when you share a household with an immunosuppressed individual who has to be protected from contact with pathogens all when someone in your household has an infectious illness to protect everyone else. but otherwise a regular clean should be sufficient. i'm here at the charity institute for infection prevention and control meeting doctor to b.s. combat thanks for having me today when i saw fear of germs come from well i think that mostly that because you don't see pathogens they're invisible to our eyes therefore we get sort of distracted little bit scared by pathogens altogether but on the other hand we also get a lot of information and a lot of media news on outbreaks on disease and so that sort of stuff therefore creating sort of. a feeling of fear there a lot of companies who want to sell us stuff like disinfectants or a head or a kitchen and it's dangerous to disinfect their own self because it effects all immune systems well usually in everyday practice as long as you don't have a compromising disease or you're not an infant the risk is very very small that you actually really get a pathogen infection all together but if you use disinfectants too much you will probably create resistances compared to and microbial where we are the high consumption of those also created a certain resistance cease and therefore it's not really necessary for the people so it's like an antibiotic drug where we can trace resistances we can trade this with all the stuff we put into our hands as well speaking of hands i mean there are a lot of germs fingers and you want to check if my figures are full of germs so how do you do this well we have an airplane here where we incubate that over night with thirty six degrees and then the next day we'll be able to see how many pathogens actually grew on your on your fingers over where on your fingers before and ok so let's do it. just present here. ok. you could see a very lot of germs so what if i would wash my hands first with the results would be any different well you would definitely see a reduction of the transient bacterial flora which is the ones that stick to your hands but they don't replicate on your hands but if you lose them after washing your hands but the trick what's the right way to wash your hands to clean the dog throat well it's important that you use the right moments before preparing food for example or also when coming home from using the subway from your commute but you can also. have to focus on the time that you actually wash your hands and also the amount of soap that you will use so there's certainly a certain amount of time that you need to wash your hands so this is why research is tell us that we have to seeing happy birthday twice as correct as it's the right length so. we don't have the time for waiting for this thing to incubate until tomorrow so so you prepared something for us from your hands we did yeah let me show it real quick here so here you can see before i washed my hands you can see the colony forming units on this and your plates those being thousands and thousands of big tyria that are transient on my my skin flora and then you can also see that after i wash my hands that there fuehrer bacteria that you can actually see on there what about all the good experience on your skin what role do they play in your hands for instance well you have to divide the floor on the skin and on the hand especially into to two separate things the one is the residential floor and the other one being the transition floor and the trends in florence the one that you lose with washing the residential floors the one that you actually keep on the people layers of the skin and those big here actually serve the purpose that they try to find often quotes pathogens that could cause infections through your skin at the hand they do that while just sitting in the news just so they're. no space so to say for the other pathogens but they also consume of the nutrients for the other bacteria therefore nothing else can stay there for too long many of us think that the toilet might be the most contemplated place in your home but with all due respect i doubt this i think when it comes to material place maybe your kitchen. you might think washing food is advisable before cooking it in many cases you'd be right but there's danger lurking. freshmeat for example can provide germs easy access to your kitchen pathogens that can only be seen under the microscope. in the past the focus was largely on salmonella but now it's camp back to that has doctors and researchers concerned. you can't be certain even if the meat is from the supermarket or another dependable source that there are no germs on it. unfortunately we're seeing the number of chemical load actor cases continue to grow year after year across germany and we currently have eighty two thousand cases in humans. mention can fifty. fifty. just. felt like my smoked chewing away. the symptoms usually start suddenly abdominal pains fever even blood in the stool is not uncommon unlike other intestinal infections it can last two weeks and there's no cure all you can do is wait until it's over many sufferers need an intravenous line to prevent dehydration. and fortunately even after it subsides a camp a low bacterial infection can still cause secondary illnesses for the most common is irritable bowel syndrome which occurs in about twenty. percent of cases. and. most people catch the pathogen through poultry in germany for example about five percent of chicken meat carries the bacteria which can be transferred from the birds intestines to the meat at the slaughterhouse. this was probably how bridget to venture called the bug she'd already been tormented with diarrhea for a week when she suddenly couldn't get up in the morning and her feet had gone numb . and when her son took her to hospital the neurologists had an immediate suspicion. or a syndrome a complication of camp or back to infection. syndrome causes rapid paralysis it typically starts and it's beat and then spread slowly affecting the legs and later the hands by the which bit of course. an examination of her cerebral spinal fluid confirmed the suspicion the doctors discovered antibodies that can trigger paralysis. at the beginning of every infection the body produces antibodies that set about destroying the pathogen. unfortunately the surface of camp back to closely resembles that of our nerve insulation tissue in the worst cases the antibodies confuse the sheath with the bacteria and destroy it the patient suffers neuralgic pain and paralysis. is key parts in there are patients who go from feeling perfectly well to being completely paralyzed inside three to four days the answer is typically very rapid while the symptoms only recede over an extended period of time. fortunately extreme cases like that of every rock we get eventually managed to make an almost complete recovery the first line of defense though is to avoid contracting the infection in the first place with scrupulous hygiene and don't wash chicken before cooking because that only spreads any bacteria around cooking the meat really high temperature is the only effective way of killing all the gems. that sounds a little bit like work in the kitchen is really life threatening this is why i leave this to my wife at home so with what little dangerous is the kitchen well concerning the dangers in the kitchen all together you have to say that if you obey some rule some basic rule things should be or right and you shouldn't worry too much about it but all together there is a certain danger in preparing food in the kitchen yeah that's true so what about the basic rules can you update us well first of all before you start preparing your food you should clean your hands wash your hands with soap and for thorough job really thoroughly. then when you start preparing the food you should start with with greens that you will enjoy raw salads for example or vegetables fruits all that kind of stuff and then you should prepare the meat and all the other things that you will cook afterwards try to minimize cross condemnation but what about cooking or baking doesn't really destroy all the germs on the surface well that certainly depends on the temperature and also of the direction of the cooking process first of all you would have to say that. if you pan fry something like you mentioned before if you pan fry something you will be able to. kill of most big kurian pathogens on the surface but not necessarily inside of the meat therefore you need certain internal temperatures in the meat that should be reached and therefore the food will be safe after right ok with meat it's clear for. a lot of the cure is in need of to kill them but what about the other role stuff isn't it so healthy that it i mean i'm not heating the silence at all true that's probably also a very good idea that you're not heating your salad before you consumer of vegetables fruits and stuff like that you should thorough you rinse them with running water and not only just take a small bath but really try to for vegetables for example try to scrub them off and therefore you will get the bacteria and the pathogens that are always on the outside no matter what you do try to get them off so don't eat the grapes right over the fridge but put it in the water for them no certain time for that unfortunately there were a lot of viewer questions. bill is bogus why do enough from australia and the question is whether those plastic sheets a better more hygenic than the wooden ones you should prefer be of the plastic ones because you can actually use those and put them in the dishwasher which is always safer then just and rinsing were hand washing them what about things like those spots here in the kitchen and they had to make it all into you have to wash them too well sponges and brushes and everything like that always depends on how you handle those i mean you have to try to rinse them off after you use them and then also you have to try to keep them dry and then it's definitely really helpful to change and quite frequently what about the sheets here you find in every kitchen you have to wash this in the machine if to cook it well it depends a little bit if you have a if you. wash them you should use. detergent there will actually disinfect those and you will have to reach a certain temperature which will be sixty degrees centigrade we've got a viewer question from the us from amy and amy wants to know. the towels in the bathroom do we have to cook the bathroom towels as well same thing as we're both washing cloth sixty degree centigrade should be enough if you use the detergent that is sufficiently disinfecting things thanks so much for having me today and after the show we have a posh chicken salad out of this ingredients looking forward to it and if you want to ask me any questions if you don't you can send we email but be aware that on your keyboard or off the computer a lot of germs wipe the keyboard first and then send you email. eating healthy food is an important way of keeping fit but sometimes worrying about what you eat and how much you weigh it can spiral out of control on an upcoming show we'll be talking about a common eating disorder if you have a question for our expert just send us an email right and rex and the subject line we look forward to hearing from you. some tingling sensation in your fingers are numb might be no problem at all but if it occurs more frequently or if it lasts longer it might be a disease is the g.p.o. always think well maybe it has something to do with the nerves but an expert might know that could be put in weapons. for years lou but israel has been suffering from numbers of feet. that makes it hard for it to work on an even surfaces. it's worst at night. i know he said you probably remember that i get a permanent tingling sensation in my legs at night so i have pins and needles. and temperature fluctuations you think you've got cold feet but they actually feel are warm and assoon as you touch your carbs so feet it's really an unpleasant sight. and it's extremely sensitive. the typical symptoms of poly neuropathy and put you know. that they refers to damage to the nerve or nerve endings which run through the body and communicate with muscles. polly neuropathy has a range of different causes loop israel has diabetes a condition that might well be a factor in her case walking on her heels and toes is becoming increasingly difficult. when your ologist checks to see if she can sense touch or vibration. and. we found that the patient a sense of touch and sensitivity to vibration would have been impaired. but all it does is as a result we have clinical indication as a whole you interact with which could explain how sometimes. measuring the conduct of a de of loopers nerves can also help us attain just how much they've already been damaged . electrodes are attached to her legs and feet and transmit small electrical impulses through the different nerves. but for. reading showed that her nerves have already suffered serious damage. and the impulses can no longer be transmitted properly through the nerves. which is why you can't use your feet very well that's the diffuse a nationalistic and we ought to prevent the damage from getting any worse lou but israel will have to keep a close eye on her blood sugar levels the doctor prescribes physiotherapy sessions to strengthen her muscles and make walking easier plus tablets for her pins and needles. here in germany we were off a big huge culture struggle the question to eat meat not to eat meat on the one side the media hears it on the other side vegans vegans don't eat anything made out of an animal they don't drink milk they don't eat they don't eat meat they don't eat hostages they don't eat honey but is this really healthy and could you perhaps lose weight being a reagan this is what is on a fig tried out. seven years ago zuzana frank quit smoking tobacco like many ex smokers she started gaining weight now it's. i'd like to slim down but it's not easy. when. i'm old enough for my metabolism to have started slowing down. plus i haven't been that active. and i like my chocolates. she's getting help from the german institute of human nutrition in potsdam. dr andreas pifer is an authority on nutrition and weight loss. research for many people in the middle years benefit most from weight loss people from age twenty to sixty. it's very worthwhile for them to lose weight because they're reducing their risk of diabetes heart attack or stroke and cancer significantly. designer fink is advised to switch to a begin diet for ten weeks she's to avoid all animal products with any luck to lose five kilos in the process to start her off she gets a box with the can food products and recipes there are even he can snap x. . began if he can play. the dairy. no animal products are. ok ok. for the first weeks the new diet is hard to get used to. going to begin adds a lot of fiber to our diet while cutting down on both baths and protein. have to give a lot more thought to what you're going to eat doesn't that alone makes you eat lots. of the calorie content of vegetables is low and you can eat a lot of vegetables without consuming a lot of calories if you can because. pretty soon her willpower is put to the challenge there's raclette for dinner at a friend's birthday. suzanna has hers without cheese. for me i don't miss me but i do miss cheese but i won't have any i'll just have some potatoes and warm vegetables that pretty tasty taste. but how easy is it to stick to a big and diet day in and day out. what's on the menu for lunch for example. at work can't just hop out to the snack bar there's nothing for me to eat there so i don't do that. normal restaurants like an italian restaurant there i usually have better luck finding something to. call. today cabbage is on the menu. is fantastic tasted remember if you like cabbage or kale they're healthy and very low in calories as chemical ali. says ana was able to stick it out for ten weeks and she lost six kilos in the process she reached her goal. by for isn't surprised. if it's a good result she lost weight got fairly typical for people who won't be consumed or switched to a beacon diet we can all tend to be fairly slim. suzanne also had a blood test which highlighted other benefits of her be good diet diskless to the authorities who are cholesterol levels went down significantly that's because the top of that you can few going to be going to die is different if it's your turn to have unsaturated fats which are also healthy. as of what your strategy a reagan diet is definitely worth trying and if you quit. and what's your plan now . i won't stick with a vegan diet but i will move more in the direction of vegetarian s.s. dog team. as long as dairy and cheese don't gain the upper hand that's also a healthy and slimming option. what do you eat meat. share this with us on facebook and what ever you eat so
