GUT2407 Posted August 26, 2015 #1 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Just heard an article on the radio that some bird is sprouting that hand sanitizer causes weight gain. So it wasn't the Oav, the ice cream orr even the chippies. It was all that hand stuff they pour in every time you enter the MDR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GUT2407 Posted August 26, 2015 Author #3 Share Posted August 26, 2015 And I assume everyone knew tha "Oav" should have been "Pav". I think they said she was Miranda Kerr's mother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beanb41 Posted August 26, 2015 #9 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Simple solution no sanitiser when going to dine, the ship will come down with Novovirus and pass food from both end and everyone will arrive home carrying less weight than they started. Good plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john watson Posted August 26, 2015 #10 Share Posted August 26, 2015 I can see an obvious and direct relationship with applying hand sanitiser and weight gain. If you compare a wife who applies the sanitiser three times a day to a husband who applies sanitiser five times a day the bloke is having two more meals daily than his wife.

Rare frantic36 Posted August 28, 2015 #14 Share Posted August 28, 2015 (edited) Here's a good link https://foods4thoughtblog.wordpress.com/2013/01/27/9-reasons-you-want-to-avoid-hand-sanitizers/ As a retired nurse I find the science in that article woefully inept. The linked correlation is so small. Based on the methods used here you could certainly find articles that would also support the idea that hand sanitisers cause weight gain.:rolleyes: I support the idea that sometimes people go overboard in over sanitising the natural environment but I cannot support the ideology in this article. Thanks for bringing it up though as it did give me a good laugh.:) Edited August 28, 2015 by frantic36 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for bringing it up though as it did give me a good laugh.:) I'm not supporting the contentions I'm laughing at them. Well maybe other than the weight gain. It is not the Pav, the chips or the ice cream, so it must be the sanitiser, unless as suggested earlier it is just the sea air shrinking all my clothes.

retyredgreynomad Posted August 28, 2015 #16 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Nothing worse than getting sick on holidays...I put on extra k's from Dec., Jan. and March cruises...nearly back down to cruising weight now...just in time for Nov cruise. This won't stop me using as much as their sanitizer as possible...good free alcohol hit off the hands as well.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awesome girl Posted August 28, 2015 #17 Share Posted August 28, 2015 So that's the problem, it's the alcohol in the sanitizer getting into the system, wow I've heard everything now.:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare OzKiwiJJ Posted September 1, 2015 #23 Share Posted September 1, 2015 It has to be the ozone in the sea air! Since our body uses oxygen (O2) the extra atom in ozone (O3) has to go somewhere so it must attach itself to our body causing weight gain. Naturally the longer the cruise the more ozone we encounter so we gain more weight. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
