What is the purpose of personal hygiene?

Cleansing the body
Eating healthy foods
Exercising regularly
Sleeping 8 hours daily

The correct answer is: Cleansing the body

Personal hygiene refers to maintaining cleanliness and taking care of one's body to prevent the spread of bacteria and illness. While eating healthy foods, exercising regularly, and getting enough sleep are also important for overall health, they are not the specific purpose of personal hygiene. Personal hygiene focuses on the actions necessary to keep the body clean and free from germs, such as washing hands, brushing teeth, and showering regularly. While all of the choices listed are important for maintaining a healthy lifestyle, only option A directly addresses the purpose of personal hygiene.
