My elementary school teacher told us once that Americans only poop once a week. The climate is colder in North America, so their intestines pack the poop together very densely such that they only need to poop once a week. She said you’d be sent to the doctor if you poop daily in America.

Is this true?

    Tell your friend that animals do get cancer.

    Some are just immune to it.

    Apparently elephants have some sort of preventative gene to it. I think there’s also a whale and mole rat that do not develop cancer.

    these animals have a variety of diets which have nothing to do with it. their immunity is due to genes or an ability to shut down tumours. (They can still get cancer but it just doesn’t do anything to them as it can’t metastasize)

    Humans do not have the same properties.

    So sick of the health food nuts that think food = hormone replacement or whatever suits their opinion at the moment and do fuck all research into how DNA works.
