health tips so as not to spoil the celebrations

It would be a shame to injure yourself before the end-of-year holiday meals while opening oysters. Present on the 13 Heures set, Friday December 22, the doctor and journalist from France Télévisions Damien Mascret recommends using a thick cloth or protective glove when opening them. After dressing the wound, you have to go to the emergency room, he adds. Also be careful to ensure that the cork does not land in an eye when opening the bottle of champagne, abounds doctor.
