Tip of the day for the rest of your days...

Here's another way to beat the cold this winter:

Instead of using a hand-dryer in a public bathroom opt for the paper towel.

Many public restrooms use hand-dryers these days to reduce waste and increase sanitation. However, in a recent study hand-dryers were found to leave your hands covered in germ whereas paper towels were able to wipe away residual germs. So make sure to wash your hands after every trip to the restroom with soap and water and dry them using paper towels, not your pants. 

If you're using a restroom that only has hand-dryers, you can kill most of the germs by leaving it steady under the dryer for at least 30 seconds.
