Title: A cure for clusterheadaches????

Top doc backs picking your nose and eating it

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.

"Medically it makes great sense and is a perfectly natural thing to do. In terms of the immune system the nose is a filter in which a great deal of bacteria are collected, and when this mixture arrives in the intestines it works just like a medicine.

"Modern medicine is constantly trying to do the same thing through far more complicated methods, people who pick their nose and eat it get a natural boost to their immune system for free."

He pointed out that children happily pick their noses, yet by the time they have become adults they have stopped under pressure from a society that has branded it disgusting and anti social.

He said: "I would recommend a new approach where children are encouraged to pick their nose. It is a completely natural response and medically a good idea as well."

And he pointed out that if anyone was really worried about what their neighbour was thinking, they could still enjoy picking their nose in private if they still wanted to get the benefits it offered.

You can pick your friends.
You can pick your nose.
You can't pick your friend's nose.

Jaaaaaaaaayne

You've been mentioning that you've been PF since December due to an addition of lithium.

Have you been lying to us????????

Is this the secret you've been keeping from us??

I'll have to ask my doctor to show me this procedure.

And here stupid me, I've been flickin' em all my life.
Maybe if I scrape them off the wall and put them by my bedside for tonight.

Hey, why not just blow your nose and suck the tissue.

If you happen to get hit in Nashville I'll offer you a fingerfull.  Don't go gettin' teary on me, it's from the heart, but my finger can't get in that far.

Well, I'd say it's definitely an improvement over the "eating shit at the dentist's" cure.

I think this goes to prove, that if you look hard enough, you can find a doctor to swear to most anything!  

Now, where is the one that swears that eating between your toes lint cures cancer?

Well, if the oxygen scares'm away, don't ask'm to open the freezer and get you an ice cube.  Straaaange look comin' then.

Careful sending buggar meds through the mail when all those bids come in from e-bay.  Your finger prints are on them.
