When it comes to myths, food and sex are the ones
that have the most. I think this is because these are two things that
we have to do in life. We have to have sex or we don't reproduce. We
have to eat or we will die. There isn't much choice when it comes to
food. Here we will discuss more of the food myths. Bookmark this
article, because you are bound to learn something new. Our food supply
isn't as safe as it used to be. All you need to do is pick up a
newspaper and see that for yourself. It seems that somewhere there is
always someone getting sick from ecoli or some other food born illness.

food they eat.
Can coffee cure a hang over?

opposite effect.
Is it okay to eat fast?
The less that you chew your food, that means the more your stomach will

care of your teeth.
Do beans cause gas?
Yes they do. They are high in fiber. A lot of things that are high in

Do carrots improve your eye sight?
No, they don't. Do do however, make your eyes healthy. That may sound

eyesight, but they do help you maintain your current ability to see.

It can cause gas, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. If you are chewing gum

Does an apple a day keep the doctor away?
Yes it does. There are many good things about apples. They help reduce
the risk of cancer. They also help lower cholesterol. Who says that old
sayings aren't true?
As will all things, take myths with a grain of
salt. If you are curious about a myth, do some research on it. You will
be surprised at how much information you will learn. |
