Seven Medical Myths

1.We use only 10 percent of our brains.
This only applies to liberals.
2.You should drink at least eight glasses of water a day.
OK, you can stop carrying that bottle of water around with you all day long.
3.Fingernails and hair grow after death.
Who would care?
4.Shaved hair grows back faster, coarser and darker.
This should be good news to the European female population.
Reading in dim light ruins your eyesight.
This cant be true because what did people do before TV? They read books by candle light and as far as I know they could hit a rabbit from 100 yards with a muzzle loader.
Eating turkey makes you drowsy.
Any one who has ever been on the Atkins Diet knows this is
nonsense. Its all the bread and mashed potatos that puts you to sleep.
Mobile phones are dangerous in hospitals.
Nor are they dangerous at gas stations. This has been proven on Mythbusters.
