Widely Believed Myths Shattered by Research

“What is a popular belief that is scientifically proven wrong?” Have you thought of one?

Here are the myths that are most commonly believed.

1. Your Hair Will Grow Back Thicker After Shaving

2. How To Survive A Tornado

3. The Mythe That Urine Is Sterile

Contrary to common belief, urine is not sterile because it contains various bacteria and other microorganisms.

4. Rice Will Make Birds Explode

Birds eat rice regularly, and brown rice is particularly beneficial for them.

5. Bubblegum Will Get Stuck In Your Stomach

Gum passes through the digestive system in days to a week, not the believed seven years.
