Many of us know the drill when it comes to showering - we concentrate on the main parts, and we get the job done. Often, we end up missing one crucial step - washing the navel thoroughly.

If you're gobsmacked on reading this piece, you're not the only one - not many people know that sweat, dirt, and bacteria act almost like human debris to the navel opening.

Never thought your belly button could produce fuzz? Think again! This lint is usually a combination of body hair, skin cells, and clothing fires. But there's a catch with BBL - it's harmless until it's not. BBL can lead to a variety of problems if not hygienically removed: Bacterial infections, Yeast infections (Candidiasis).

The trick to combat this is to practice navel hygiene specifically aka removing your navel's bacteria, dirt, oil, sweat, and dead skin in the shower every day!
