Sweat Kills Germs - Official
Hot and sweaty during a battle? Padded jack getting stiff with age and =
salt? Well never mind, now you have a perfect excuse!
German researchers have identified a protein, dermcidin, that is =
manufactured only in the sweat glands. Test-tube experiments found that =
dermcidin kills a variety of bateria, including E.coli, E.faecalis, and =
Staphyloccus aureus, which can infect skin wounds, as well as Candida =
albicans, a fungus that can cause thrush. Sweat carries the protein to
the skin's surface to guard against invading organisms. =20
One might make the reasonable assessment that the body is more at risk =
of external injury during exercise than whilst watching Neighbours - =
although the mind may not be, of course.
When your loved one takes you to task for smelling like an old horse at =
the top of a hill in July, you can tell them you are taking precautions =
against bacteriological attack.=20
Regards,
Kim Siddorn.
The early bird may get the worm -
but the second mouse gets the cheese!=20
