 Your mom told you a lot of things when you were a kid, especially about how to be safe outdoors. Some of her advice was undoubtedly smart—for example, when she lectured you about not talking to strangers. (That's probably a warning you still heed, unless of course, she's hot.) But many of the other lectures were unfounded in science.
To be sure, your mom meant well. Take for instance, her fear that going in and out of an air-conditioned building would hurt your health. Her rationale was that the temperature swings would make you vulnerable to colds. That's not true, according to our experts. So feel free to dash from the fridge to the grill as often as you'd like. Still, because she didn't get everything wrong, we've compiled the 7 biggest summer myths, and told you whether or not they're true or false. |
