There are just so many of them and just as many studies proving them wrong. Like the 'we use only 10% of our brain' and 'gum stays in your stomach for 7 years'. Good gracious, how can people still think them as being valid? Why don’t myths just die? There are just so many of them and just as many studies proving them wrong.

This is totally unprofessional journalism. Additionally, you did not do any research on the validity of your claim, for there is a wealth of literature in scientific articles that compares and contrasts this claim about the specific organisms that reside in a a dog's mouth. Looking at the relevant veterinary journals, you would have found a more complete discussion which you totally undermine in your posting especially via my statement. I am also involved in public health and find it important to give accurate advice to the public, and I find it offensive that NYU would endorse such superficial journalism.
