Top Medical Myths Put to Rest

// January 5th, 2009 // Stuff

I’ve seen this before and may have even posted it in the past but it’s worth checking out.  Please comment if you’ve got some others…

  • Sugar does not cause hyperactivity in children.
  • You don’t lose excess body heat from your head. (You can leave your hat at home if you don’t want to muss your hair!)
  • Eating at night does not make you fat. (Though the obvious rules still apply—you can’t eat more calories than you burn.)
  • Unfortunately, there is no scientific evidence that you can cure a hangover.
  • Shaving does not cause hair to grow back faster, darker, or coarser.
  • Reading in dim light will not destroy your eyesight.
  • You don’t need to drink eight glasses of water a day, so save yourself the bloat.
