Many myths and misconceptions are floating around about the world, and it can be hard to know what’s true and what’s not. Here are 12 myths that you thought were true, but science says you’re wrong:
Myth: Sugar is the worst food for you
Fact: While sugar is not a nutrient-rich food, it is not the worst food for you. Many other foods are more harmful, such as processed foods that are high in unhealthy fats, sodium, and sugar.
Myth: You need to eat three meals a day.
Fact: There is no scientific evidence to support the claim that you need to eat three meals a day. In fact, some research suggests that eating smaller, more frequent meals may improve your health.
Myth: You need to drink eight glasses of water a day.

Fact: Popularity is not necessary for happiness. Many people are happy without having a large group of friends. It is more important to have close relationships with a few people who you love and trust.
Myth: You need to have a lot of friends to be happy.
Fact: It is essential to have close relationships with a few people whom you love and trust, but you do not need to have a large group of friends to be happy. In fact, having too many friends can be overwhelming and stressful.

Myth: You need to have children to be happy.
Fact: Having children can be a source of great joy for many people, but it is unnecessary for happiness. Many people are happy without having children. It is essential to decide to have children based on what is suitable for you, not on what society expects.
Myth: You need to retire to be happy.
