The Avent Sterilizer: Effectively Protecting Your Baby From Germs
The world is a dangerous place for a newborn
The world is a dangerous place for a newborn. Forget about nuclear war and gnomes hiding in the garden; your baby's worst enemies are so tiny that you can't even see them with your own eyes. They are nonetheless always crawling all over the place - from your hands to the kitchen counter to the bathroom - everywhere around the house.
Despite all your best efforts you cannot totally eliminate these bad guys from your home. They will find their way in through the air, flown in by flies, and even more will come aboard vegetables and meats from the grocery store. Germs are these invisible yet dangerous enemies that make us ill. Young babies are especially vulnerable to germs because their immune systems are still works in progress.
Since it's not possible to eradicate microorganisms from our environment, we have to be diligent when handling food, and in particular babies' food. Babies primarily become ill through food and water. Nevertheless, there are two powerful practices that can be used to ward off germs before they make our babies ill. The first one is the simple practice of hand washing. Washing our hands is of the essence before eating, after using the bathroom, before preparing food, after changing nappies, after playing with pets, and so on. The value of hand washing is lost on many people yet it is the most effective way of protecting ourselves and our families from diseases caused by contaminated food. When you have a little baby, you need to step up your hand washing habits. Wash your hands before preparing his/her food and just before you begin to feed him/her so that you don't pass dangerous bacteria to the feeding equipment.
The second weapon that can be used in the war against germs is the
Avent sterilizer. This is a nifty device from Phillips that you will use to sterilize your baby's feeding equipment. Using the Avent sterilizer is very simple. Simply load your baby's stuff into the Avent sterilizer, add the correct amount of water, and then place it in the microwave. Four to six minutes is all it takes to completely sterilize all the equipment.
Phillips' designers did a good job of crafting a sterilizer design that can fit in most microwaves and is very portable. You can therefore carry your Avent sterilizer anywhere you go because you can use it in a different microwave. Combining hand washing and regular sterilization of all feeding equipment will definitely safeguard your baby against dangerous germs and so he/she will grow up strong and healthy.
