good hygiene

Staying clean daily

Good hygiene refers to practices that maintain cleanliness and prevent disease—regular handwashing, bathing, dental care, and similar habits.

The phrase often appears in health contexts: Good hygiene is your first defense against infection.

Someone with good hygiene keeps themselves and their surroundings clean.

The term can extend beyond the body to food handling or medical settings.
