.. that I also believe to be true.
These tips are from the bodyandsoul.com.au.
I am doing this now. Not because I knew this but because at home, we put things where they are accessible. Plus, we have small storage space in the bathroom and down the hallway, we have a second linen closet that is just right for bathroom supplies.
I have not listened to radio station for a long time. I've been tuning in to my CD's. Some are my favourites that I bought. I would love to have a music recorder but it's just far down on my list of things to buy.
Yes, a must. Money has been in the hands of many and you just don't know where are those hands from.
Of course! Enough said.

Keep tablets with the linen
If medication is constantly exposed to light, heat or humidity – in other words, a steamy bathroom – it could degrade faster than it should, thus reducing its potency and efficacy. Neal Patel, from the Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain, says, "A cool, dry, dark area such as the linen closet is ideal for storing medications.'

Retune the radio to lose weight
Doing something different every day – even just switching radio stations – shakes us out of our routine and can help us kick bad habits, according to Professor Ben Fletcher, a psychologist at Hertfordshire University.
"Deeply engrained habits of thinking and behaviour keep us doing things that are bad for us, like smoking, eating and drinking too much or becoming stuck in negative thought patterns – all of which impacts on our health," he says. "We can make our lives much better with very small changes."

Wash your hands after getting cash
Cleanliness tests have revealed that cash machines are as dirty, and carry the same germs, as public toilets.
When scientists took swabs from urban ATMs around the UK, they found the machines were heavily contaminated with bacteria, including those known to cause sickness and diarrhoea.
Dr Mark Fielder, a medical microbiologist at Kingston University London, says, "If people don't wash their hands properly, all sorts of organisms will be transferred to the buttons on an ATM. Just as it's important to wash your hands after using the toilet, it would be sensible to clean them after getting money out."
Yes, a must. Money has been in the hands of many and you just don't know where are those hands from.
Flush with the lid down
Microbiologist Dr Charles Gerba, from the University of Arizona, warns that you should always flush the toilet with the seat lid down. If you don't, polluted water particles float for a few hours around your bathroom before they all land, some on your toothbrush.
Dr Gerba says: "It doesn't happen all the time, but E.coli and other faecal-based bacteria really can make you ill, so unless you want to brush your teeth with what was in the toilet, close the lid."
Of course! Enough said.
