Product Description
* Update: This story, reported by numerous news outlets, has been the subject of an article by Lead Stories, which found it to be inaccurate. The study referred (and linked) to in paragraph 3 does not make any explicit mention of eating snot, let alone recommend the consumption of bogies picked from the nose in order to defend against respiratory infection, stomach ulcers or HIV, among other health benefits. The quote from Professor Bischinger pre-dates the study by a decade and appears not to relate to any specific research. We are glad to update the matter. 3/5/19.
