Common Medical Myths - Gross Anatomy

What this episode covers

Does chewing gum really stay in your stomach for seven years? Can you really get the flu from the flu shot? Does eating turkey really make you tired? These are just a few of the medical myths we explore on this week's episode. We also talk about The Game Changers — a new documentary (featuring Arnold) that delves into meat, protein and strength. *GROSS ANATOMY IS NOT INTENDED TO BE A SUBSTITUTE FOR PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL ADVICE, DIAGNOSIS, OR TREATMENT. ALWAYS SEEK THE ADVICE OF YOUR PHYSICIAN OR OTHER QUALIFIED HEALTH PROVIDER WITH ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE REGARDING A MEDICAL CONDITION.
