Health Tips from Doctor TLK

Some serious stuff that I heard when I was driving to work

  1. Dont leave your toothbrush over the sink. When you flush your toilet, micro mist from you commode travels and deposit itself on your brush. Keep your brush inside a drawer or a cabinet.

  2. Dont keep your medications inside your bathroom cabinet. A hot steamy shower could raise the temp of you bathroom, close to 100 F. That heat could breakup the chemical composition of your medication, making it non-effective or sometimes dangerous.

  3. Never wash your vegetables in the Kitchen sink. Your kitchen sink is often dirtier than your bathroom sink. Alwasy use colander that has a little stand under it.

Totally agree with the point about Toothbrushes - I have been pleading this to family and friends for years, and always have used a travel toothbrush holder even at home.........................

People just called me weird.............

And don’t give your babies a bath in the kitchen sink either!

Re: Health Tips from Doctor TLK

Re: Health Tips from Doctor TLK

btw, ever since i saw some aunties washing their hair in the kitchen sink, i have stopped eating food at their house :snooty: next to having pets in the house and long gross nails, that is a big no no.

Re: Health Tips from Doctor TLK

Much better than people spitting in it :smiley:

I’ve seen people rinisng their mouth in kitchen sink and spitting water out

Re: Health Tips from Doctor TLK

^ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!! and then the ladies probably rinse the meat, veggies, plates, etc in the same sink!

Re: Health Tips from Doctor TLK

Good tips! But we should use a good disinfectant cleaner to clean our sinks off after the day's work.

You know what else, the sponges we use to clean our dishes can end up being dirtier then even the sink!

Also, cutting chicken and other meats on a wooden cutting board is dangerous as bacteria from the chicken etc., can seep into the wood and create havoc.

Chalo people, let's disinfect!

Re: Health Tips from Doctor TLK

But that could be healthy .. right?

Protien from someone's saliva can get into your raw beef and when you cook haleem out of it, you get extra creamy haleem. Good Stuff

Re: Health Tips from Doctor TLK

^why do you think those bun kebabs on thelas are so delicious? all that sweat, dirt off hands (god knows where they even go to bathroom), etc etc adds onto the taste. probably same is the case with the haleems that consist of the salivas.

Re: Health Tips from Doctor TLK

Great points! Most of us tend to overlook such crucial details, it is sooo important for good health. Chalo, TLK bhai ko aaj raat kaam se lagayen.

Re: Health Tips from Doctor TLK

Yes :lifey:finally a real Pak mentality conversation

Re: Health Tips from Doctor TLK

TLK thanks for the tips.

but must you give us such graphic details (ie extra creamy haleem?) YOU'RE SO GROSS!

Re: Health Tips from Doctor TLK

Indeed, very healthy. :smack:

Re: Health Tips from Doctor TLK

So here is another thing we overlook which can cause serious health issues:

Using public restrooms. How do you handle yourself in a public toilet???

Re: Health Tips from Doctor TLK

^ if you absolutely HAVE to go ...like if you don't go ALL HELL WILL BREAK LOOSE...then you use public washrooms.

What you do is cover the commode sitting area with tissue towel and then do your business!

Re: Health Tips from Doctor TLK

and use tissue to turn on and off the tap ..same with opening the door when you are leaving.
