Medical myths are popular, as they mostly effect just about every single person on the planet. Whether we like to admit it or not, almost everybody has a fear of growing sick or finding themselves in a dangerous situation where a doctor is required afterward. We tend to believe what we’re told when it comes to these illnesses, diseases, or survival scenarios. However, most of what we’re told is actually just a medical myth that can be debunked with science and knowledge. Here are ten common medical myths that have actually been debunked.
Hypothermia occurs in Cold Weather
Hypothermia is a dreaded condition, which most people feel comes from cold weather. In fact, it can actually occur during the summer, when your body is exposed to a warm wind after being wet.
Salt Is Bad
There are only a fraction of foods in the entire world that have too much salt in them to be harmful to the human body. Very few medical conditions require an individual to stop eating salt or limit their intake.
