Tynan explores the benefits of exposing yourself to germs by practicing "eating dirty,” deliberately consuming food that has touched unclean surfaces. He argues that controlled exposure strengthens the immune system, reduces anxiety about cleanliness, and makes life more convenient. By shifting perspective on hygiene, we can cultivate resilience and embrace a more adaptable lifestyle.

Quotes to ponder:

"People are scared of germs, and I think that's a shame. Exposure to germs is what builds our immune systems and makes us stronger."

"When you eat dirty food, you realize that your body is strong and that you don’t need to be scared of every little speck of dirt."

"Ironically, people who are more concerned about germs tend to get sick more often, because they never let their immune systems build up a strong resistance."
