Expert: Wet wipes weaken the immune system
Wet wipes contain substances that destroy beneficial microflora. Therapist Tatyana Romanenko told about this, reports “Moscow 24”.
According to the specialist, with frequent use of wet wipes, abrasions and cracks appear on the skin, which leads to a weakening of the immune system. Romanenko recommended using them only in cases where there is no way to wash your hands.
The expert warned that industrial wipes can cause an allergic reaction, irritation to the skin and even affect reproductive function. And open packaging of napkins can become a favorable breeding ground for dangerous microorganisms.
The specialist also recalled that wet wipes do not completely replace hand washing, since they do not completely cleanse the skin of contamination.
