A recent study by One Poll has set out to scientifically debunk many common myths that are believed by the majority of people. You might be surprised to find out that you will not catch a cold by going out in the cold, sugar does not cause hyperactivity in children, and you probably do NOT swallow 7 spiders a year in your sleep. On a good note, the poll also discovered that only about 25% of people actually believe what they see posted on social media so there is some hope for us yet. It’s still a mystery how many of these myths get started but my thought is maybe it’s just that the myth is more fun to believe.
