Eating your Boogers May be Good for You.

It's Science
"Picking your nose and eating it might even be good for you. Various scientists have long hypothesized that eating mucus from your own nose is an effective method of strengthening the immune system. Nasal secretions trap germs and other toxins that are in the air so that they don’t enter our lungs. Instead, we swallow most of our nose mucus, even if we don’t actually pick our nose and eat it. In the GI track, these germs can act like a vaccine, teaching our immune system what pathogens are in our environment. Our immune system can then be primed and ready to fight the specific germs we encounter regularly. Too much cleanliness may also be associated with allergies."
Happy Thanksgiving!

You can pick your friends,
You can pick your nose, but
You CANNOT pick your friends nose

I don't approve of people making light of my threads.
The above statement is made in jest.

"Pray tell, how many books have you read on the subject?"
What a dbag.

Your nose almost certainly hosts staphylococcus. Could even be MRSA up there. Maybe you don't care if you spread MRSA all over everything you touch, if you've already got it, but I care.

This is validation for all those times my wife called me gross

While sounding gross, I believe the human body needs to not be overly protected and allowed to build its immune system

To know that after all these years, i was making my immune system awesome is great
