AQA Outcome 3 worksheet The top layer of skin consists of dead skin cells that protect the more delicate skin underneath. Your skin is constantly renewing itself and you lose millions of dead skin cells every day. Adults have about 2 million sweat glands under the skin and sweating is the body s way of keeping all your important organs at the right temperature. Sweating is perfectly normal and it only becomes a problem if you do not wash regularly. Your body changes as you enter your teenage years and you produce more sweat, especially under your arms and around your genital area. Again, this is perfectly normal but it becomes more important to wash regularly. Washing with soap and water is all you need as long as you do it regularly. It is no good putting antiperspirant, deodorant, perfume or body spray onto dirty skin. Answer these questions with a yes or no Yes or No Do you shower or bath at least once a day? Do you wash or shower after exercise? Do you change your socks every day? Do you wear clean underwear every day? Do you wash your hands after using the toilet? Do you wash your hair at least once a week? Do you clean your face every morning? If you have answered NO to more than one of these then you should think a bit more about your personal hygiene.

AQA Outcome 5 Show knowledge of how to care for hands, teeth, hair and feet; Hands The most important thing you can do to keep from getting sick is to wash your hands. If you don't wash your hands frequently, you can pick up germs from other sources and then infect yourself. You're at risk every time you touch your eyes, nose, or mouth. In fact, one of the most common ways people catch colds is by rubbing their nose or their eyes after the cold virus has gotten on their hands. If people don't wash their hands frequently (especially when they're ill), they can spread germs directly to other people or onto surfaces that others touch. And before you know it, everyone around you is coming down with something too.

Teeth Bad breath, or halitosis, can be a major problem, especially when you're about to snuggle with your sweetie or whisper a joke to your friend. The good news is that bad breath can often be prevented with some simple steps. Bad breath is caused by odour-producing bacteria that grow in the mouth. When you don't brush and floss regularly, bacteria accumulate on the bits of food left in your mouth and between your teeth. The sulphur compounds released by these bacteria make your breath smell. Certain foods, especially ones like garlic and onions that contain pungent oils, can contribute to bad breath because the oils are carried to your lungs and out through your mouth. Smoking is also a major cause of bad breath. How do you care for your teeth Worksheets created by Beth McGinn (HCC Foster Carer) Hampshire Fostering Network 2016 Page 8
Hair We have about 100,000 hairs on our heads. Each hair shaft has three layers, with the cuticle, or outside layer, protecting the two inner layers. Shiny hair is a sign of health because the layers of the cuticle lie flat and reflect light. When the scales of the cuticle lie flat they overlap tightly, so the inner layers are well protected from heat, sun, chlorine, and all the other hazards that can come from living in our environment. When hair is damaged, though, the scales may separate and hair can become dry. Because the scales on dry hair don't protect the inner two layers as well, hair can break and look dull. Some people find that their hair gets oily in their teen years. That's because the hair follicles contain sebaceous glands that make sebum, which moisturizes the hair and skin. During adolescence, the sebaceous glands may become overactive due to hormone changes during puberty, producing more oil than needed. As with acne, oily hair is usually a temporary part of puberty.

Feet Athlete's foot affects the soles of the feet and the areas between the toes, and it may also spread to the toenails. Athlete's foot can also spread to the palms of your hands, groin, or underarms if you touch your feet and then touch another area of your body. Athlete's foot doesn't just aggravate athletes; anyone whose feet tend to be damp or sweaty can get this infection. The fungi that cause athlete's foot thrive in warm, moist environments. The most common trigger of ingrown toenails is poor nail-trimming skills. Nails that are cut too short often allow the skin on the sides to cover the corners of the nail. This causes the nail to grow back beneath the skin. Nails that are ripped off, instead of cut, also have a tendency to become ingrown because they don't have defined corners. Nails that are rounded rather than cut straight across can also cause the nail to break the soft skin.
