I look forward to seeing a lifehacking hyper-optimizer streamline this to a polished daily workflow...
"I have a bucket of mud, in which I stick my hands for 15 minutes every morning.
Every weekend, I inoculate at a 1:5:5 ratio with biologically active stream dirt (after petri-dishing to check for activity), and a mix of poor-quality soil cover, and some compost; I finish by adding a 10-10-10 balanced fertilizer.
Recently, I've been seeing if there are any additional benefits to smearing all over my arms; I'm conducting a 3 month/3 month comparison experiment, with a washout period in-between...
I'm sure the comments will be full of detractors scoffing at this claiming that all one needs is not to wash their hands. Or just go outside to handle that mud. With luck you might come across the king of Briton.
> Those using the microbially-diverse soil saw an increase in the diversity of bacteria on their skin, and on the number of anti-inflammatory cytokines in their blood – while the other group didn't.
after i switched to washing my hands with antibacterial soap (the orange kind they use in hospitals), i've gone from a bimonthly cold-analog disease to maybe being sick twice a year
Kids benefit from being kids and rolling around in the grass.
In which cities are people favouring local parks over toilets?
Parasites can actually help with allergies. I am loosely aware of various attempts at treating allergies using parasites.
One of the approaches taken (under medical supervision) for kids with bad nut allergies is to gradually expose them to more of the allergen. Being able to survive a peanut or two without anaphylaxis is life-changing.
The slugs in your soil carry a parasite which can cause lifelong paralysis if it enters your body, a lot of the worms do too. Those decomposing leaves carry tetanus. Your perspective is not aligned with reality.
This is like the dumbest take ever, do you think people go and take a shit on the park in big European cities?
I live in Berlin and compared to most other European cities it’s a shit hole, but one thing I can tell you is the cleanliness and green nature of the public parks. Most of the time people actually care about the public parks (with exception of few)
However, one thing to worry about is the tick bites or any other insect bites, but that’s part of the nature
By your spelling of the word "germofoob" I get the impression that you're Dutch, am I correct? In that case I suspect that the "dozens of animals" you see "shitting on the same spot" are dogs in a small green area in a Dutch village or town. That is indeed not the spot to let your children play, fortunately the Netherlands does have plenty of "real nature" (or at least as real as anything can be in a man-made country) where they can play without being subjected to canine playdough.
You're severely misunderstanding how germs and infections work. But germphobes have the phobia as a response to stress, its never a logical position they take.
You're feelings rule your intellect on this one I'm afraid, that's a textbook definition of irrationally
Simlle question: i see dozens animals shitting on the same spot every day. Next day I see a child playing at that spot, should a say something? Is that an overreaction?
> Just becauee you follow basic hygiene, and cook your food, and shit into toilet (not street), does not make you "germofoob"
Lol no but you are not rational my friend and definitely in germophobe group :) And no amount of exclamation marks will change that, in contrary.
I think you need to re-visit some basic science about bacteria, human immunity and general advices on how to raise children with regard to those topics. If you don't, you will harm your children in pretty bad ways

Don't forget to buy my exclusive eBook!"
“Pair it with our full spectrum sun lamp and you can have all the benefits of playing outside from the comfort of your standing desk”.
“Yes.”
That's really remarkable.

> Children who play there willmdevelop all sorts of misterious allergies, skin rash conditions, asthma and so on!
No they won't you hysterical boob. Youre fear of germs is irrational. Get a grip
I wrote to go into nature, without poop. It has nothing to do with regular germs!
> Take them to real nature, where grass is not used as a toilet by city folks
