or thinking about something unrelated to sneezing. numbers, letters, something that's going to -- >> your dust is still in your nose. you're only tricking yourself. the minute you stop thinking about numbers or something, the dust is going to remind you. >> you're right. sometimes if you think about a grapefruit it actually stimulates saliva, because it's sour. that can trick your brain to get rid of the sneezing reflux. >> anybody whose favorite dessert is raisins, i don't trust. >> let's pretend when you got to go, you got to go. that happens. we have to urinate. there's nowhere around to go. what do you do? >> i don't think the word urinate was necessary there. >> when you have to pee like crazy. there's things you have to do. physiologists recommend a couple tricks that help you -- help prevent you from bearing down on your bladder. they're easy. one is sit on the edge of your chair. that puts pressure on your perineum.

part of your mind, not the emotional part. >> that would upset me. that's hard to do. not only do you want to cry, you're stupid! >> oh, gosh. >> one more thing to cry about. does anybody think this stuff through but me? am i the only one. >> you're alone. next one, you are about to speak in public. your mouth gets dried up. >> that does happen. >> what do you do? >> touch your tongue to the tip of your mouth, the roof of your mouth. avoid swallowing. that will cause a little saliva to pool in the bottom of your mouth. swish it around. problem solved. >> before you give a speech, hoda, i want to see you do that. >> no one has to see. >> mm-hmm. wonder what's taking so long. i don't even want to say this. we're almost out of time. do we have time to get to that one? >> what do you do when you're in public and your crack starts itching? >> yes. it can be very uncomfortable. this great, easy trick. if you can get to a bathroom take any powder from a compact, sprinkle it back there. that'll help any itch. >> say bye-bye to that compact.

>> make sure you say -- >> wipe it off. >> here's the thing you can do. if you put your bag down or something like a briefcase or laptop bag, don't stick it on the kitchen table or on your bed when you get home. everybody's freaked out about bedbugs. luggage is the primary way they get carried from a hotel or restaurant to your room. >> remotes are always bad. >> now we're talking about something that makes a little sense. >> especially in the hotel room. 50% of remote controls according to a study had rhino virus on them which causes the common cold. touch them through the sheets. some people are crazy enough they bring zip lock bags to put around remote controls. >> don't tell me a make-up bag has issues. >> you want to make sure you wash your brushes at least once or twice a month. and you do that with soapy water or some sort of disinfectant. insides as well. these collect dead skin cells. just like your bedding they can be a breeding ground for bacteria. >> hodie, when's the last time you washed your brushes?

>> i use a zip lock bag. i use the same one for a long time. >> it's the same zip lock bag. >> my mom always used to take comet on anything she used that touched meat. when you're touching raw chicken, raw beef, salmonella could be on them. >> people still eat caesar salad all day with raw eggs. good advice. we're not going to follow much of it. thanks so much. if your cup runneth over and you know how you are, we're about to find the perfect fitting bra. after this. we have a look at your weather channel forecast for today. we're going to see that system that's been in the middle part of the country and the great lakes push off into the northeast and the mid-atlantic, bringing a chance for some rain
