The symptoms can be overwhelming, to the point where travel becomes anxiety-inducing and often, something to avoid altogether.

Nature has equipped us quite nicely with a smooth skin; only tender parts covered with hair to protect them from dirt, dust, and insects. It was working very well till the very moment when we invented clothes. Nowadays panties are giving our buttocks protection against external threats, and we don’t need hair any more.

Much of the world prefers to use water when wiping. In fact, the United States is one of the few countries on the planet that uses dry paper, and even here many are turning to alternatives such as baby wipes and wet wipes when using the bathroom. The problem is that many people are also flushing these wipes, which is a big environmental no-no. Wet wipes are made from plastic fibers that are completely non-biodegradable. As a result, they are clogging up sewers and killing sea animals. While it may appear to be convenient and tidy, the end result is not a pretty picture.

It appears to be the epidemic that no one talks about. Far and wide, men and women alike worry about what to do if they have to do their business while visiting a friend, at work, or in an airport bathroom. It’s so much of an epidemic that it’s causing an international constipation crisis. No one wants to be the person who noisily fouls the guest bathroom air, or is recognized by their shoes peeking out from under the smelly bathroom stall at the office. Here are some suggestions on how you can keep it clean and fresh while preserving your privacy and dignity when you have to go No. 2 away from home.

The benefits are many - everything from preventing/fighting infection to boosting self esteem because you just plain feel good about yourself. It doesn’t take much to build these simple, but amazingly effective hygiene habits. Here are the basics to practicing good hygiene every day:

You consider yourself a refined woman. You love the better things in life--good culture, good books, good food. You carry yourself well, know which side of the plate to set the fork, and always send a thank-you note. You dress with style, decorate with aplomb, and practice good grooming habits. So why is it that you leave that unpleasant odor behind whenever you do your business in the bathroom?

If you live alone and never, ever leave your home, this article may not be for you. But if you are the average American male consuming the average American male diet, chances are good that at one time or another you are going to end up somewhere with that special someone and having to go, ummm, No. 2. Here are some of the worst bathroom odor embarrassments that we can think of and how you can avoid them by keeping an emergency supply ofAquinelle Toilet Tissue Mist on hand at all times.

Staying healthy on the road is a challenge for anyone. Between the stressful change in routine, long hours, lost sleep, and exposure to germs, it’s a formula for getting sick. But travelling as a woman poses its own particular health risks. Here are some ways to minimize health risks during travel.

1. Wash Your Hands Often:

   This is a health habit that applies to everyone, not just women, but it is a basic hygiene practice that can go a long way toward keeping you well. Wash before and after every meal, every time you use the restroom, and any other time you have an opportunity. Give your hands and nails a good and thorough 20-second scrubbing, with lots of soap and water as hot as you can stand it.

Bathrooms can be a breeding ground for germs, bacteria, mildew and all-around unsanitary conditions, but it doesn’t have to be that way. By establishing a few good bathroom practices and habits, you can turn your bathroom into a haven of health, hygiene, and cleanliness. Here’s how to get started:

1. Ban the clutter: Bathrooms have a tendency to collect an array of products, crowding the sink counters, toilet tank top, shower shelves, and bathtub edges and making it difficult to clean properly. Give your products a good going over and purge what is old, unused, or in the way. You will find that by utilizing some clever storage techniques both in and out of the bathroom, you can eliminate 99% of what is sitting on your horizontal spaces, allowing you to actually clean and disinfect your bathroom properly.

Travel brings with it a whole host of problems that you just don't deal with in everyday life, starting with the packing list and what to bring. But once you are on the road, with the disruption to routine, it's very easy for personal hygiene routines to go out the window as well. Here are some great ways to stay clean on the road:

1. Make the bathroom your friend
   While there's no doubt that bathrooms on the road are widely ranging in quality and cleanliness, from cramped and littered airline toilets to grungy gas station stops that look like they haven't seen a good dose of disinfectant in a decade, don’t let their dirt stop you. If you have to do any sort of serious, showerless washing up, it's a good plan to bring along a small travel bottle size of mild disinfectant. Add a tablespoon or two of vinegar to a travel bottle of water, and you have a nontoxic way to tidy up your bathroom space. This not only kills germs, it's also a good karmic way to pay it forward by making a practice of leaving a place better than you found it. Maybe you'll inspire others to do the same.

Once upon a time — basically since the dawn of time — people have implemented some pretty harsh methods and materials to tend to their bathroom routine, generally grabbing whatever was at hand to clean up. Dating as far back as ancient China and Greece up through Colonial America and right into the early 20^th Century, our ancestors used stones, coconuts, shells, leaves, moss, grass, corncobs and sheep’s wool - none a very hygienic, or safe choice..

Some of my best childhood memories are of days on the road, packed into the family station wagon, and Dad getting lost as soon as we crossed state lines. I'd often wonder if we were headed upstate or to another galaxy. And true to form, Dad did not ask for directions. A few extra highway exits and reentries were part of the adventure. Good times were guaranteed once we arrived at our destination - often day trips with an overnight or two passed at a nearby relative's home.

When it comes to personal hygiene - especially relating to zones below the belt - who isn't inclined to a little potty humor every now and then? Growing up, my aunt had a copy of a colorful and crude book called Jokes For The John. Published in 1961, it was loaded with indelicate humor and Playboy-esque comics and came with a chain for hanging right next to your toilet.

We may have come a long way since the days of reading dirty jokes in the bathroom, but  the vintage-era charm of this memory comes from recollections of me and my siblings retreating to the bathroom more often than nature intended, simply to sneak a peek at the naughty illustrations.

Today's family bathroom is still a place of retreat, and more importantly it is becoming a place of cleaner, greener living. Here are some eco-friendly adjustments you can make in your bathrooms to improve your home's decor and reduce its impact on the environment.

Bathroom talk. It's a topic that's sure to evoke giggles and poking for anyone from age 2 on up. But all kidding aside, our toilet paper practices are really in the dark ages. If you walk down any grocery store aisle, you will see a what appears to be a wide range of options, from pillow soft to cardboard stiff, but really it all comes down to the same thing: dry toilet paper. And at the end of the day, dry doesn't really get the job done right.

Mindfulness is quite the catch-word these days, although the concept is nothing new. Based on Eastern meditation practices, it's a method for becoming present in the moment that is. Excessive worry and over-thinking can affect both mental and physical health, and the practice of mindfulness is a way to stop the fretting or "monkey mind", as it's known in yoga and meditation circles.

Everything has an evolution, and toilet paper is no exception. You probably take the current incarnation of bathroom hygiene for granted, but it hasn't always been that way. In fact, you could say that there are many ways to wipe.

Using paper for cleaning the tush dates back to 6^th-century China. A Chinese scholar actually penned some verse about it in 589 AD, saying, "Paper on which there are quotations or commentaries from the Five Classics or the names of sages, I dare not use for toilet purposes!"

The buzz in going green these days is all about reducing your carbon footprint. While you may not be able to lower carbon emissions by backing out of that next business trip, you can certainly assist the planet in a more incremental way by packing an eco-friendly travel kit. It may not seem like much, but helping the environment is about the millions of small efforts that add up to a big difference. Here's how to pack your green travel kit:

A friend who lives out in the country recently had a plumber out for a visit. Her septic tank kept backing up, and she couldn't figure out what the problem was. The plumber asked if anyone in the home used wet wipes in place of toilet paper, and her reply was that everyone did. That was the culprit, to her dismay, although the wipes clearly stated that they were flushable.

And she's not alone in her ignorance of wipes' impact. Seeking a more comfortable way to, well, wipe, the pre-moistened towelette has move from the baby nursery to the bathroom. Many homes have taken to stocking their bathroom with these wipes, without fully understanding the consequences to pipes, septic and sewage systems, and even the planet.
