Is Eating Boogers Bad for You?

Well... Just like Mythbusters Carter has decided to put the theory to test and the results are in, eating boogers is good for you and according to researcher Friedrich Bischinger similar to consuming really nasty-salty penicillin."
Seriously,In the scientific and medical knowledge communities, the act of eating a booger is called mucophagy. Furthermore, Austrian doctor Friedrich Bischinger, a lung specialist working in Innsbruck, performed research that found people who pick their noses with their fingers are healthier, happier, and more in tune with their bodies. His work also found exposing the body to the dried germ corpses helps to reinforce the immune system. In short Bischinger supports nose-picking, and encourages children to take up the habit.  Actually, come to think of it Carter has not had a single ear infection or fever since he started eating the salty morsels....:-)
