Is cleanliness a problem?

Right from the childhood days everyone would have been insisted on maintaining cleanliness thereby carving out a hygienic environment. For cleanness of body was ever esteemed to proceed from a due reverence to God, to society, and to us, which reveals the degree of admiration, it has among the people. Cleanliness is indeed regarded next to Godliness but the scandalous news is that being too clean could raise the risk of getting diabetes. This is due to the fact that lack of exposure to bacteria and viruses during childhood may indeed lead to an increased likelihood of high blood sugar and related diseases. Researchers feel that exposure to some kinds of friendly bacteria prevents the commencement of type1 diabetes. This category usually develops in childhood where the immune system launches an attack on cells that produce insulin.
