Top Doctor: Stay Healthy By Picking Your Nose And EATING IT!
:puke:

<snip>

Picking your nose and eating it is one of the best ways to stay healthy, according to a top Austrian doctor.

Innsbruck-based lung specialist Prof Dr Friedrich Bischinger said people who pick their noses with their fingers were healthy, happier and probably better in tune with their bodies.

He says society should adopt a new approach to nose-picking and encourage children to take it up.

Dr Bischinger said: "With the finger you can get to places you just can't reach with a handkerchief, keeping your nose far cleaner.

"And eating the dry remains of what you pull out is a great way of strengthening the body's immune system.

3. So THAT'S why I used
to do that back in elementary school, and why I've remained healthy since! I guess grossing out classmates and being unpopular because of it was all worth it in the end!:evilgrin:
