• The domestic environment is one of the most important sources for infectious diseases
• These infections are predominately food-borne

Old friends hypothesis (Graham Rook)
Microorganisms that were once abundant (but aren‘t any more) trained our immune system to be more tolerant:
- Lactobacilli- Saprophytic Mycobacteria- Parasitic worms

Are we too clean?
Cleaning does most probably not increase the risk for allergy and asthma

Are we too clean?
Cleaning does most probably not increase the risk for allergy and asthma
The targeted use of cleaning and antimicrobial products may help to reduce the risk for household-associated infections
