6. Mayim Bialik
Not only does Mayim Bialik play neuroscientist on TV, she’s also one in real life. Yes, both Dr. Amy Farrah Fowler from The Big Bang Theory and the actress who plays her are super smart, but we don’t have to heed her wisdom. For example, Bialik believes that women should ingest their own placenta’s after giving birth. She wrote a blog post in 2012 saying, “human beings are the only mammals that have chosen to not routinely ingest their placenta, which is consumed by every other mammal for its protein and iron-rich properties that are critical in helping the mother’s body recuperate after giving birth. End of story.” It’s not something that is widely recommended by the medical profession. In fact, a recent study showed placentophogy had no real benefits. Go ahead, eat it if you want to, but don’t feel guilty if this one’s too yucky for you.
