- Myth: Antibacterial soap is necessary for daily use.
- Truth: Regular soap and consistent hand-washing prevent infection better.
- Eating Chocolate or Oily Foods Causes Oily Skin and Acne:
- Myth: Specific foods lead to acne.
- Truth: Sebum, not diet, causes acne; no direct link to chocolate or oily foods.
- Tanning is Bad for You:
- Myth: Excessive tanning without protection increases skin cancer risk.
