~1.7 mins read
Found this interesting, hence I decided to share with us. Do you know you can catch viruses and bacteria from kissing?
Well, the answer is YES!. read further and leave a comment below.
What diseases can be transmitted through kissing?
1. COLDS
Colds are spread by direct contact with the virus. By kissing an infected person we get in direct contact with the secretions of his nose and throat.
2. KISS DISEASE
Also known as glandular fever or infectious mononucleosis, it is caused by the Epstein-Barr virus. The virus is transmitted through saliva and infection occurs through contact.
3. COLD SORES
Also caused by a virus, it can be transmitted through direct contact with the virus. Herpes is more easily transmitted when blisters are forming.
4. HEPATITIS B
Infection can occur when the infected blood and saliva of the infected person come into direct contact with the blood or mucous membranes of another person, for example if the person has open sores in or around the mouth.
5. MENINGOCOCCAL DISEASE
This is a life-threatening disease, and is due to inflammation of the membranes that surround the brain and spinal cord. The bacterium that causes this disease is spread by direct contact or droplets of saliva. It is a very rare form of transmission.
6. DENTAL CARIES
Did you know that the mouths of newborn babies lack the bacteria that cause tooth decay? Kissing babies on the lips causes these bacteria to spread to their mouths.
Even though there are some diseases that can be transmitted through kissing, remember that there is no need to give up kissing for the sake of health.
Most kisses do not cause any disease and the risk of serious illness is very small.
Some tips to avoid or reduce infections through kissing:
1. Avoid kissing or being kissed when one of the two people is sick.
2. Avoid kissing someone on the lips when there is an active mouth, warts or ulcers around the lips or in the mouth.
3. Maintain good oral hygiene.
Coughing and sneezing in a handkerchief.

Stop Eating These 3 Popular Foods, They Are Bad for Your Eyes
The things we consume into our body system play a huge part in our health. That is why it is very pertinent to watch the kinds of foods we take in. You may be someone with a particular eye problem, but because you may be ignorant about the foods that are bad for the health of the eye, you may still be eating them. The eyes are one of the most important parts of the body because they are what we see through. Hence, it is important to take proper care of them.
This article would be highlighting 3 foods you should avoid if you want the best for your eyes.
1 White or Plain colored foods: You are conversant with these type of food, they are mostly starchy foods. They are rice, noodles, white bread, etc.
Also consuming excess of these kinds of food can lead to an excess amount of glucose in the body. Excess glucose in turn can form plaques that can block the blood vessels connected to the eyes.
2 Foods with excess cholesterol: These foods are commonly consumed by lots of people. However, these foods can lead to the damage of the eyes. Excess cholesterol in the body system is known to form lumps that end up blocking the blood vessels that are responsible for passing blood to the eyes. This can lead to blurry vision, and if it continues for a long time, can lead to blindness. This is majorly because the eye is an organ of the body that works with constant supply of blood. Hence, if there happens to be anything that stops blood from being supplied to the eyes, the effect might be very bad for the eyes.
