However, many of them are artifice. There are so many false myths we spread from day to day that it’s about time the world of science created an entirely separate department dedicated to myth debunking! Otherwise, people will continue believing that the sun is yellow, beer makes you gain weight, and that it’s not harmful to rinse your mouth out with water after brushing your teeth.
Bright Side recalled and destroyed 11 common misconceptions. Watch this video to learn about how some of the most acceptable “facts” are completely untrue.

SUMMARY:
- At the beginning of the 20th century, German scientist D. P. Hanig came to the conclusion that different parts of the tongue are equally capable of determining taste, although the reaction rate is somewhat different. After years of research, scientists confirmed the statement.
- It is widely believed that men who constantly drink beer end up with a protruding beer belly. But it’s not the beer that’s to blame for this as much as the abundance of unhealthy snacks that often accompany the intoxicating drink.
- When we were children, most of us were told that dogs see the world in black and white. The truth is that they can distinguish colors — just not in the same way we do.
- It is worth noting that swimming after a meal may cause some uncomfortable sensations in the stomach, but this is unlikely to happen and isn’t life-threatening.
- Somehow, the world is convinced that if you pull out a gray hair, 2 will replace it. In reality, if you pull out a gray hair, a gray hair will replace it —but only one, not 2!
- Let’s get something out of the way now — the fear of exploding in outer space is not something that should hold you back! No, you won’t instantly explode as soon as you step out. However, after about 30 seconds, you won’t be able to breathe because there’s no oxygen.
- It may be hard to believe, but the sun is not yellow at all. It’s actually white. The sun appears yellow to us thanks to our atmosphere.
- The good news is that you don’t have to fear toilet seats as much as you may have previously thought since germs have found a different place to play: door handles and bathroom floors.
- The reason you shouldn’t rinse your mouth with water right after brushing your teeth is that it would cause the fluoride from the toothpaste to wash away. Fluoride forms a film over your teeth, and it helps keep your teeth from decaying.
- A razor simply removes thin, faded hairs, leaving them with thick bases. When they continue to grow, it appears that the new hair has become darker and thicker.
