Prepare yourself for this recent survey..
2,000 men and women were surveyed on how long they wear their underwear as well as how long they keep the items.
The survey stated that “conventional wisdom – and basic common sense” indicate underwear should be changed every day or at least washed after every wear, but when researchers spoke with those surveyed, they found that “basic standard” wasn’t universal.
45% of the people surveyed admitted to wearing the same pair on multiple days.. Even worse, 13% said they’ve worn the same pair for a week or more!
The survey cited a study from goodhousekeeping.com that stated even clean underwear contains up to 10,000 living bacteria – even after being washed.. GROSS!
Moral of the story, CHANGE AND WASH YOUR UNDERWEAR!
