Medical Myths

Myth and superstition play a huge role in our daily lives and this is a big part of all cultures. Many people carry good luck charms, seek fortune tellers, and even look to the stars for guidance.  Do these things help? Are we doing them because the generations before us told us to do it? Is it tradition?  We have many modern-day myths and cultural beliefs that really don't have a basis, but there's a lot of that in medicine too. In this episode of the Medgeeks podcast, we'll be discussing some of the most common medical myths today.  - Our goal at Medgeeks is to help you live the life you want to live as you navigate a career in medicine.
