In addition to my book of questions, I had bought the book Why Do Men Have Nipples: Hundreds of Questions You'd Only Ask a Doctor After Your Third Martini a few months back which has some interesting medical questions in it. Most of the questons are gross and I am not going to list them. Her are a few toned down ones:
Does it really take 7 years to digest chewing gum?
The short answer: Chewing gum is not digestible, but it does not sit in your stomach for 7 years, no.
Does eating carrots improve your vision?
A vitamin A deficiency can cause blindness, but if you are not deficient in vitamin A, your vision will not improve by eating carrots.
Why do men have nipples?
We all start out following a female template in the emrbyo until about 6 weeks. The embryo then begins to develop its male characteristics. Men are left with nipples and breast tissue.
Big hands, big ___?
There is no evidence that hand size is at all related to the size of a man's "issued gear". Also, things that start out smaller, usually tend to expand larger than things that start out larger.
Is it true that men can break their "issued gear"?
Yes it is. (as the men all cringe and the women smile) Sudden trauma or bending in an "uplifted state" can break the fibrous coat which causes the previously mentioned uplifted state. This does not require a cast, however it does require surgery. So be careful gentlemen and always wear a helmet!
Is it smart to put butter on a burn?
No. The butter will trap the heat an prolong the pain.
Can you get high from licking a toad?
There is a species of toad (I am not mentioning it because I don't want to be responsible for people licking amphibians) that has a psychedelic substance on its skin. Similiar to LSD and serotonin and can cause hallucinations.
Can you really explode from eating too much?
Stomach rupture, or gastrorrhexis, is a rare condition, although it has been reported to occur from eating too much.
Do you hair and nails continue to grow after you die?
They do not. Your body starts to dry out giving the illusion that hair and nails are growing as you shrivel up.
