A study published in the December 2007 British Medical Journal tweaked physicians on their acceptance of some widespread medical beliefs that might now be reclassified as old wives' tales. Here's a rundown of some of the medical world myths:
| | Drink at least 8 glasses of water a day |
| | We use only 10 percent of our brains |
| | Hair and fingernails continue to grow after death |
| | Reading in dim light ruins your eyesight |
| | Shaving causes hair to grow back faster or coarser |
| | Mobile phones are dangerous in hospitals |
| | Eating turkey makes people especially drowsy: |
| | Microwave ovens cause cancer. |
