If you lick cooking spoon as a guy,u will not have beards.

If u r breastfeeding, and u go out without the baby, wenever ur breast milk starts coming outn dat means ur baby is crying.

A pregnant woman that will give birth to a male child must fall down during the period of pregnancy.

If your teeth falls and a lizard picks it, your teeth will not grow, but if a rat picks it, it will grow.

If your eyelid pains you, like you are about have a boil there, just pluck out an eyelash and it stops. But this has worked for me since I learnt it, over ten years now!

if you eat with cover of plate, you wont be able to defend yourself if a lie is told against you.

If you want to grow bears fast as a kid, rub your chin with methylated Spirit...I wasted our first aid spirit on dis.

A pregnat woman must attach a metallic object on her if she wants to go out on a sunny day.

If you are sleepind at noon, you must wake up before sunset. You might get ill if you didn't.

A pregnat woman must not go over someone lying down, or else she'll give birth to look-alike of d person lyin down.

If you spit on the floor and someone matches it, you'll contract a sore throat.

Eating fowl anus go make U̶̲̥̅̊ b amebo.

Eating inside d pot will make U̶̲̥̅̊ grow big/pot belly.

If ur ear is itching U̶̲̥̅̊,,it simply means someone is gossipiing abt U̶̲̥̅̊.

Sherry-mango + garri=bye bye to dis world.

^unless u mean spiritual, its a fat lie. Infact science said that it makes u live longer. ♍ƴ guy try am, u fit be as fresh as M̶̲̅ε̲̣.
I don't agree with you. Did you know scientifically, a guy should have s-e-x once in 21 days? This is to help him regain all he's lost during the intercourse. *so I read* wink
ty osho:

This is soooo true.never had a boil in over 30years.once I notice the symptoms,I apply ear wax at the site and next thing it's gone.
That's because earwax is a natural antibiotic. It helps prevent ear infections.

The topic is interesting.

However, I must point out that most posts are not medical fallacies, but superstitions.

The 21 Day Recuperation theory is also unfounded. People regain "all they lost" differently. Depending on many factors including diet,rest,exercise/stamina, stress levels etc. All the guys who had had sex almost every day of the week would have been sickly and dead. Married men like me who won't let their sexy and kinky wild wives rest would have been totally emaciated.

tripledub: If ur teeth remove, take am go throw on top d roof of ur house. Anoda one go grow immediately where the first one from comot. I did this when i was young.
There was even a better alternative then. They will tell you not to throw it on the roof cos if it's seen by lizards, that's the end of your tooth. Instead, throw it inside gutter with 7 or probably 9 stones. grin

Hahaha i can see some pseudoscience working. I use to share the same thing with my when we go out for drink sometimes it will be coconut drink, I have spoken to few about the taboos of not drinking coconut water so they will not have dull brain. lol

obadiah777: IF YOU COUGH SNEEZE AND FART AT THE SAME TIME YOU WILL DIE

If this is true, then it is better not to remove it. I used to think it was dirt.
Re: Common Medical Fallacies by yembet(f): 7:04pm On Apr 25, 2018
There's another one going around, that eating banana and egg can cause, death instantly. I'm not sure if this is true.

I once attended to a man who was really devastated by how his nursing wife starved him of coitus. The wife told him that spermatozoa would mix with her breast-milk giving to the nursing baby if she dare mate with him.
I know this was posted a long time ago but I just have to grin grin grin
