From my fave morning show The Doctors…
Cracking your knuckles does not cause arthritis
Every single wives tale regarding pregnancy is false
Hair does not grow back more coarse by shaving
Plucking one grey hair does not cause two to grow back
A dog’s mouth is NOT cleaner than a human’s mouth. A human mouth is far cleaner than a dog’s mouth. We don’t lick our own asses.
If you touch somebody who has sneezed, you will catch their germs (true)
Drinking caster oil does not induce labor
You should not eat for two when pregnant
Brat diet (bananas, rice, apple sauce & toast) for upset stomach:: myth (there are many foods that will help settle your tummy and you don’t have to limit yourself)
Breastfeeding moms should not eat peanut butter or it could lead to peanut allergy
Cigars are just as bad if not worse than smoking cigarettes
Meanwhile, the Today show says:
Direction does not matter what direction you apply products. What products you apply is more
Doubling SPF does not double coverage. SPF 30 is only 2% more effective than SPF 15. What matters most is that you apply a full, thick layer every few hours (I actually knew this, but thought it was worth mentioning)
