After Reading This, You Will Never Put Toilet Paper on the Toilet Seat – EVER AGAIN

You’ve probably seen many people put toilet paper on their toilet seat while they’re in the public restrooms.

If you are one of them, you probably do that to prevent catching a disease from someone else’s splashes that may be left on the toilet seat, isn’t that right?

But, this article is going to prove you wrong! We’re going to tell you that you should never put toilet paper on your toilet seat ever again!

Namely, it turned out that these liners actually may have more to do with providing comfort and reassurance to the user than doing anything in order to prevent some disease.

According to experts, toilet seats are not a vehicle for the transmission of any infectious agents and because of that you won’t catch anything. As a matter of fact, toilet seats were considered to be a way of transmitting gastrointestinal or sexually transmitted infections, but that idea now is refuted in research.

If you cover the toilet seat with a toilet paper, you will do more harm than good. Why is that so? Toilet paper itself is loaded with harmful viruses and bacteria, which can harm your health, so, when people are done, they all flush, but they don’t put the toilet seat down. According to a study, these splashes can go up to 2 m in height and if that’s so, all the harmful bacteria go on the toilet paper.

There certainly are disease-causing bacteria, such as E. coli and streptococcus on a toilet seat, but, the good thing about our bodies is that our skin serves as an effective and protective barrier, so unless you always bring your own toilet paper to put it on the toilet seat, try this instead. Your skin is a barrier itself. It will protect you as it should.
