You Shed Enough Skin Each Year to Fill a Bag of Sugar

Your body sheds 30,000 to 40,000 dead skin cells every minute.

  • Over a year, that adds up to about 8 pounds of skin flakes — roughly the weight of a small bag of sugar!
  • Most of this dust ends up in your bedding, carpets, and even the air you breathe.
  • Surprisingly, house dust mites live almost entirely off these dead skin cells.

So when you dust your home, you’re really cleaning up… yourself!
