Is Using Coloured Or Scented Toilet Paper Dangerous For Health?
This is why you must throw away coloured or scented toilet paper, immediately!
A few decades ago, in countries like India, this article would not have been very relevant because not many people here used toilet papers, right?
Well, now the times have changed and whether it is because people are trying to look up to the western concepts or purely due to hygiene reasons, more and more people in developing countries are also using toilet papers.
These days, especially at corporate workplaces, malls, eateries, etc., the toilets usually have toilet paper so that people can make use of it to stay clean and dry, after they are done with the nature's calls.
So, many people would be using toilet papers to wipe clean their genitals, on a daily basis. Meanwhile, also know the reason why you should not put toilet paper on the toilet seat.
These days, even in many homes, people keep toilet paper in their bathrooms for the same purpose.
Now, as the concept of using toilet paper has become more popular, just like with any other item, sellers started manufacturing toilet papers that come in different colours, just to improve the aesthetic factor, because, coloured toilet paper has no other special function.
In addition, scented toilet papers are also widely available in the markets today and come with pleasant odours that can make your entire bathroom smell great!
