USA : Home-laundering not effective in decontaminating surgical attire - Apparel News USA

study comparing the aerobic bacterial bioburden associated with surgical scrub attire shows significantly greater contamination among home-laundered attire than scrubs laundered by the healthcare facility, scrubs sent out by the facility to a third-party company for laundering, or single-use/disposable scrubs. In fact, home-laundered scrubs cleaned and ready to wear had as much bacteria present as facility-laundered, third-party laundered and single-use scrubs which had been worn for one day

The Blueberry: A Long History of Health Benefits.

Comment: Food is as important to a culture as it is for maintaining good health. One resource writes how the blueberry was considered "medicinal" to many native populations of Canada.

The Ojibwa, Cree, and Odawa all used the blueberry plant for medicinal purposes. The Ojibwa ground the leaves and used them as a medicinal tea and as a cure for headaches. Cree healers chewed fresh blueberry leaves and applied it to wounds. Odawa peoples brewed the leaves and used it as a healthy tonic. (U of Calgary)

Blueberries have a been shown to have superior nutritional value and have health benefits. In addition to reducing oxidative stress especially after exercise; a recent report suggests eating blueberries may be beneficial for weight control, improve memory and protect against "intestinal inflammations such as ulcerative colitis."
