Remedy for E coli

Tue May 7,12:11 PM ET

 

(HealthScoutNews) -- Harmful bacteria like E.coli are more likely to

pitch camp in your kitchen than in your toilet.

 

They particularly like to colonize your sponges, dish rags and

cutting boards, because those surfaces are moist and contain small

particles of food.

 

Microbiologists have discovered one easy way to kill them: Stick

those items in your microwave oven. Add water. A wet sponge takes

one minute, a dishrag requires three minutes, and a wooden cutting

board needs 10 minutes.

Thanks for the tip! Wanted to also add that taking a garlic capsule ( or pure garlic, which is preferred ) before eating at restaurants will help the body combat most food poisoning you might encounter.
