We need to take in germs in order to get resistance to them. So aren’t we don’t a disservice by washing our hands all the time? Obviously, we need to from time to time but not on the regular

So if I understand correctly, washing hands does several things–
So yeah, good question about how much of an impact frequent hand-washing makes in terms of healthy bacterial biome. I would speculate that in terms of the overall skin layer health, not much. But in terms of ingested germs, especially if one is eating with their hands, such as a sandwich, pizza, etc, I would guess there would be the bigger impact.
