Sawbones: What’s More Edible, Paper or Cotton?

from Sawbones: A Marital Tour of Misguided Medicine · host Justin and Dr. Sydnee McElroy

It’s one of our favorite kinds of episodes, making use of Dr. Sydnee’s expertise and Justin’s street smarts: medical questions! Why do we fart? How long is the digestive tract? Why are all minor mouth injuries so awful? Does REM “detoxify” the brain? And am I experiencing nightmares, night terrors, or ghosts? (Sawbones does not claim any expertise on the matter of ghosts.) PLUS, an update on Cyclospora.
