Oh, and I've known about demodexes since high school biology class about FIVE YEARS AGO. Creepy, but probably necessary, like friendly bacteria in our bowels. |

38. Most of us have microscopic, wormlike mites named Demodex that live in our eyelashes and have claws and a mouth. I do NOT like the sound of that $hit! :o

they're not JUST on your eyelashes, or at least that species of mite.They are EVERYWHERE! you'd need to bathe in acid to get rid of them too. |

The only thing on that list that will do be any good is the thing about the blue light fending off drowsiness, considering I work midnight shift. |

32. Just 30 minutes of continuous kissing can diminish the body's allergic reaction to pollen, relaxing the body and reducing production of histamine, a chemical cell given out in response to allergens.I'll remember that the next time I make out with a Dandelion. |

2. The part of the brain that regulates reasoning, impulse control and judgment is still under construction during puberty and doesn't shift into autopilot until about age 25.Makes complete sense now. |

20. A substance called resveratrol, also found in red wine, protects mice from obesity and the effects of aging, and perhaps could do the same for humans.Actually in a Time magazice article, it made the mice obese, but healthy compared to the ones without resveratrol. |
