## Resource

Flushing the toilet might be routine, but new research reveals it sends invisible aerosol particles flying—up to five feet high and beyond. While inhaling these droplets isn’t a guaranteed path to illness, experts say closing the lid and improving bathroom ventilation can help minimize exposure. Good hygiene and cleanliness remain your best defenses. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
