INTRODUCTION:

READINGS/ DISCUSSION
Hygiene is a term that refers to the steps you do to keep your body clean and
healthy. Good hygiene is more than just looking neat and clean- by keeping yourselves
clean at all times you can reduce the spread of diseases.
Regular exercise, proper nutrition and enough rest and sleep build strong body
resistance.
Get vaccinated. A vaccine (or immunization) is a way to build your body’s
natural immunity to a disease before you get sick. This keeps you from getting and
spreading the disease.
Keeping the environment healthy. How do you keep your surroundings clean?
